Cerita Budak Intern..

hello my precious blog!!it has been a while since I last update any posts..well to those who currently following this blog (err cakap macam kau femes sangat) probably knew that I'm now on my industrial training  period. So now is my 6th week working here..another 4 weeks to go!!

Dah 5 minggu baru nak update kan..kelas kau jah...haha..ok xklaka..pfft...

Well, about my industrial training, how should I say...let start with the company profile. Ze name RWNA engineering but most people who already knew about this company would pronounce it as 'RAWNA' or 'RAUNA' something like that la..its a main con for oil and gas industry,what I can see here the main service they provide is pipe cutter machine, other machines are also on the run such as hydraulic bolt tensioning, welding habitat,cold tapping..etc..hadoi adlin kau cakap seperti semua orang tau kan pe kejadah ini semua kan..so anyways we can see that this company focuses more on mechanical stuffs rather than operation (when I said operation means the process, people who worked offshore or petroleum fields know better). RWNA currently has 7 branches and I'm currently at its research and development centre.

masa ni tgh wat product testing..ini ialah valve

meja on 2nd day


The first day when I stepped here nervousnye tak terkata..masuk2 je da kene panggil meeting and da assign supervisor. Oh lupa nak mention yang masa aku masuk tu dah ada 2 orang interns from UTM masuk a week earlier from me. The first two days I was assigned on analyzing  fume extractor. Moving on to the 3rd day until my 3rd week, its all about drawing..drawing..and drawing..and its no regular paper and pencil drawing..itu memang aku fail...SOLIDWORKS!! time to refresh all my solidworks skills yang telah lama ku tinggalkan sejak sekian lama..baru setahun kan da lupa haih~...but thank you so much to all the engineers for their guidance, masih boleh layan sifat ke'blurr'an aku hehe..

Talking about the environment, the place is quite new (maklumla branch ni baru 8 bulan bukak) so everything here looks new, the facilities, machines and the staff..the staff not so new la. Some of them are transferred from the fabrication yard branch (the other branch that is just 5 mins from here) and some of them are new. Fresh grad yang sebaya ngn aku pon ada..adui rasa segan je bila dapat arahan dari seorang junior engineer sebaya....kita ni degree pon tak abes lagi..and what I see is that most of the engineers and machinist here are age between 23 to 29...kalau bos or kakak admin tak ada mulalah kat ofis or workshop tu diorang nak hu ha hu ha..bos masuk dan2 la nak berlakon buat2 keje haha..so tak lari macam suasana kat kelas...
comel kan?ni totally wat dari mesin lathe

drawing lagi
again~
and again..again
I always heard from my lecturers about their experiences working in the industry and reasons why they choose to be an educator  with a minimum salary of RM 2500 (depends on education level and research) while they are highly qualified to be an engineer with Rm 10,000++ salary(depends on position and company). The main reason is handling the tension and pressure. Seriously being an engineer you have to sacrifice your time,energy..money?nope..engineers have loads of money but got no time to spend it..contoh macam kerja off shore kat tengah laut tu..gaji boleh cecah sampai 40k sebulan tapi duduk kt laut tu 2 minggu and kat darat 2 minggu..so sapa yang abeskan duit kau tu?

So if you can't handle the pressure..work till late night...sleep at the office sampai bini pon bising laki dia tak balik2 so don't choose to be an engineer. That was the time that I figured why 80% of the engineers here are single..nak cari pasangan pon xde masa...but good news for the ladies..you will be less heartbroken if you choose an engineer as your husband cause the one thing that you should be insecure about is his passion to work. Jangan risau la tak de masa aku tengok  dia orang ni nak cari perempuan lain..dapat bini sorang ni pon da kira bersyukur sangat la..tapi si para isteri engineer ni haruslah seorang yang setia dan kuat..if you ladies jenis suka berkepit kemana aja so xyah la mimpi bersuamikan engineer..kang laki korang g offshore sebulan korang g flirt ngn laki lain..OMG...sila jangan nakal2 ye hehe...

Adlin2..what nonsense are you babbling about...your English is utterly terrible..yeah lets just say I don't read english stuffs lately..that's a short time for a persons english to get deteriorate  eh..well, I seriously don't have time to read much, alasan je semua ni haha...

Ok..where was I (bila post main selang2 hari cmni la jadinya), despite the environment that is self welcoming, there's something that I noticed about. 6 weeks being here, 5 people resigned!! OH MY ENGINEER!! if I recall, first was the solidwork/mastercam operator, then the admin assistant, lead machinist, cnc machinist and latest was last week, the design engineer. Is it so bad working here?YES!! I can see their pressure faces clearly. Even small little matters they would take it so seriously whereas their are more bigger problems to be taken care of.. I think for machinist, ok la tak seteruk yang duduk kt fabrication yard (branch yg lagi satu) but pity for the engineers, they always have to stay up till late night, boleh hitung brape kali je dapat balik kol 5, another reason why most engineers here are still single. For what I know, from all the night puller, yet their salary remains unchanged. Means diorang tak boleh claim OT..syarat company ni is that employees with salary above Rm2000 therefore cannot claim overtime. But a little advantage for them is that for every succeeded project, they will get 1% benefit..bunyi macam sikit kan..tapi kalu contoh project tu 7 juta then 1% tu baru la nampak banyak sikit la kan..in order to get that 1%, botak rambut aku tengok diorang ni. I once heard from the kakak cleaner yang da 7 bulan keje kat sini cakap ..paling lama staff kat sini boleh tahan dalam 3-6 bulan sahaja..ok that proves the theory..tidak ketinggalan juga budak praktikal yang turut sama dikerah tenaga..tapi tang balik tu..paling lama aku boleh tahan sampai kol 8:30...but lately I always had a way to escape early hehehe..elaun sikit tp nak balik lambat pe barang...

Tapi..tapi...tapi...walaupun company ni agak 'kejam' tapi untuk para2 intern drg kira baik la coz bagi kami free meal 3 kali sehari( kalau bukan bulan posa la)..so jimat duit disitu. Kalau nak tido masa rehat tu pon tak de masalah..yang lelaki tido secara berjemaah kt bilik meeting (sebab surau kecik) and yang perempuan..iaitu saya sorang saja and kadang2 kakak cleaner join skali akan tido kt surau hehehe..then kadang2 supplier pon baik hati juga..slalu gak bagi makan2 seperti kfc, pizza hut..cuma xde lagi yg nak sponsor buka puasa kt hotel..amboi demand nampak adlin..

Maka saya disini dengan rasminya mengumumkan bahawasanya tinggal lagi 3 minggu disini sebelum bercuti selama 1 minggu dan memasuki tahun akhir...

Sekian sahaja disini..ada idea lain nanti akan ku cerita wahai blog..belog..beloggurr

Pic dibawah untuk tatapan..lebih senang cerita kat pic :)





attachment of external lathe..designed for decreasing diameter of pipe
During Project presentation..each engineer have to present their project kt boss and wait for his approval..pic ni b4 bulan pose ok


hafizul and ronn..2 orang dak utm yg buat2 busy kt bilik QC haha
meja lutfi (junior design engineer) yang amatla bersepah..it makes sense actually  coz none of the engineers here aku tengok meja drg sangat kemas
