It's a sad thing not to have a standardize clock. My house clock is fast 10 minutes. My watch is fast 5 minutes. My car clock is fast 3 minutes. My handphone clock is fast 4 minutes.
The best part is, i refer to all these clocks every morning. In the end, I confused myself with the actual time. The worst part is, I don't know I'm late for work or just ON TIME for work =P
With all these lau chui, inaccurate times i have all.... I make it this way. Each time I step out from the car after I parked it in Plexus, I see an A330 or B777 from Cathay Pacific flies over my head; I'm early. Otherwise, I will run faster than Usain Bolt to the employee entrance.

Black Room
Black current all of us have heard of. Black box, some of us have heard of. Black room?? what the heck is that? Continue reading.
Its the end of my first week in Plexus already. I basically know every place that I should know or have to know. My access card also can access to places I suppose to access too. (mostly places with pretty staff =P)
Today is a very special day where I want to blog on it. What is the special thing??

I met the General Manager(GM) of Plexus
So what's the big deal. He's just another human being only.
He's not the big deal, just that he is very weird.
When I know that I need to find the GM, I was like kinda shock. WOW, I'm just a trainee and I need to find the GM for his signature on the documents. That doesn't matter, worst is I don't know where he sits. So.. I asked my supervisor to take me to his room, at least show me around. All he did was, just tell me the direction and left me like that.
Directions:
Supervisor : No no.. It is really dark. Our department call it the BLACK ROOM. Because the
GM doesn't like to ON the lights wan.
Me :Ooowh.... Interesting person. hahaha..
Directions:
- You go down from this office.
- You turn left, into another office.
- You walk straight till the end.
- Then you will see a black room. A very dark room.
Supervisor : No no.. It is really dark. Our department call it the BLACK ROOM. Because the
GM doesn't like to ON the lights wan.
Me :Ooowh.... Interesting person. hahaha..
Now we know what is black room.
Anyway, today I went marathon round the plant. North to south back to north to somewhere I don't know, here and there and to the black room.
During the marathon, before going to the finance department, had a short conversation with my department head as he was the tour guide.
Department head : Do you want to comb your hair a not?
Me : Huh?? For? *thinks that my hair is in a mess*
Department head : Because we are going to the finance department.
Me : So??? *very puzzled look
Department head : So ah, there got lots of leng lui wan wor..
Me : -.-, LOL
Department head : Hahaha..
After that, I was left alone to find the GM. The room was really dark. He seriously didn't on his lights. An energy saving general manager =P
At that time, he was on a phone conference with I dunno who. I couldn't wait any longer, so I just left the place. After an hour, I went down again but this time his secretary asked me to get his signature other day but I said it is urgent as the GM is in bad mood. Only then the secretary only allows me to get in but she is like, if anything goes wrong, she will like use me as a shield d. At that time, I'm a bit frighten by her but I'm still steady.
During that time, when I enter the room, the GM wasn't there but there were two people, I believe marketing or some executives preparing for presentation. They were both damn freak out. Keep asking me not to come, GM very bad. I can see the female staff keep shaking and the guy keep calming down himself. Seeing both their actions really makes me thinking like I'm about to ask a tiger for his paw print.
As the GM is walking back from toilet, I said, OK, the GM is on his way. Both of them, again like err, prepare for the him to walk in, sit properly, get the papers all arranged properly all that. When he walks in to his room, I greeted him, then his secretary showed him the documents I passed to her, and he stares at it for a while. The secretary hint me to come forward and explain what it was about. Stepped forward, introduced myself from which department and tell him the purpose of my presence there. Was questioned a few things about it, AND LUCKILY all the the questions he asked, the answer is located on the paper. So I just happily read it out. Hahahaha...
After that, he signed the document than I was relieved, quickly walk out the room and I don't want to know what happen inside after that. LOL
When I told my department head about this, he was damn worried on my behalf when he gets to know that the GM asked me question. hahaha...
Anyway, somehow on Friday, all the top level management like kena PMS like that. Luckily, my boss wasn't like that.

BUT
Today, I finally get it.
I know I look like a "sohai". LOL
By the way, after looking at the photo, I think Plexus photoshop my face. Either that or their camera suck. Hahaha..
Too bad, I can't show you Plexus production floor as no camera is allowed in that area and no project names can be revealed into public. All I can say is, it is divided into three section. They name it North Bay, Central Bay and South Bay. There three itself is already damn big d. Haven't cover the warehouse/ inventory yet.

Internship
Yes, I am now doing my internship in Plexus Manufacturing Sdn Bhd. (Riverside plant)
Reported for duty last Monday, and was greeted by a beautiful Human Resource Staff, Jessica Lim *whoot* who contacted most of us and in charge of our placement.
Anyway, I'm now under the Supply Quality Engineering Department. *lousy department* This department is just another name for Quality Assurance (QA) for all supplies before it is been manufactured.
Huh??
I mean, it checks for the suppliers parts quality before it is used to be manufactured/processed
Most of us got placement in Plexus, but quite a few were placed in different plant. Mostly in Hillside.
Anyway, our first day, we are required to wear the shoe cover. I'm not sure for what reason but I believe is to prevent us from picking up static from outside environment.
After the orientation, all of us went to our respective departments and I get to meet my boss, get to know where I sit and sadly I can't meet my supervisor. He was on Emergency leave =(
After lunch hour, we got our ESD shoes. A shoe I MUST wear all time when I am in Plexus building. ESD simply stands for ElectroStatic Discharge Shoe. I now have no fear of touching any metal objects and get myself shock anymore =D
Besides that, they also provide us the ESD Smock.
Manage to see part of the production floor. Yet to enter in there to have a look. That's all for my first day I guess. Pretty boring day. In fact it is VERY boring.
Ohhhh..... one more thing. Plexus very bad to their trainees. They don't provide internet access to their employees. Damn sad. When I got nothing to do, I just walk round and round and round the office. Jump round and round and round the office. Now you can imagine how boring it is. WORST is!!! I cant sleep!!!! WHY?? Because I sitting next to the Department head. =(
