haha, confession is good for the soul, and I need it, so here goes. I've been telling people that my first week at work has been fantastic until up till Thursday. That's when I gotta start on the hands-on, technical operational part. A bit overwhelmed, by the way my older colleagues seems to fly at their jobs, while I'm crawling at my work. So decided to be creative and try to take short-cuts, by trying all the funny ways to alter the finished products.
Somehow the Lord, in His ever patience and unchanging grace, spoke to me in a still small voice just now on my way home, that what I am doing is not good. Not only not good for my work, but not good for my soul. Basket, 4th day at work already tried to "pattern more than badminton" ah? I guess this eagerness to be on par with my older colleagues, while stemming from a good desire of not wanting to be a burden or tripping stone, has also something to do with my pride. Pride of wanting to be just as good as the "老将" of my department, and not wanting to look stupid by asking the stupid questions*.
Thanks God there is still a chance to undo my "creativity". Praise God for providing "Ctrl+Z"** opportunities.
But I still gotta confess to my other colleagues la. Must be mature about this...

*haha, what Dilbert refers to as "being blinded by the obvious".
** Come to think of it, not only "Ctrl+Z", but also "Ctrl+N" ah... sorli, geeky-speak here...
