Looking back I just graduated after that year's Spring Festival, is also extremely popular recruitment site, I pushed hard to the first row, handed him a resume, get two questions. First, what to major in, will be doing, I answered truthfully, the first two problems, Linux play to what extent, I say not yet begun, had just written the sound card driver. Then two days later to tell me the company two faces, two faces a long process, but I am fairly successfully before. Employment problem be solved.
I go to school passing Fuzhou, just in time for a job fair, the blessing was in the auditorium, a look very arrogant company in hiring, the name of the name of the provincial Science and Technology Department, a column of 863 projects in several countries, wages and benefits everything looks very attractive.
Find work things bothered me for a long time old, I want to engage in relevant professional but found it difficult, a study of automation, automatic control system really done only one: remote temperature control. Boiler go after it? Not very willing. Another one is to recruit school in Henan tractor factory, students in our class named him to a full, no interviews, the spot contract. Treatment is less points, a monthly salary of 3800, this term we do not belong to enrollment, how quickly the price? Toss several other companies, I feel mean nothing, underachievement. Simply to play to July, graduation.
Bid farewell to the student. Beginning to work, I feel very different, cycling to work every day, filled with air and satisfaction. Then towards work is passionate, my first task seems very simple now, make a thin version of Linux, allows the system + product in the form of ramfs running in memory, in order to solve abnormal system shutdown again fschk long boot process, there was no ext3, ibm have a Jfs, but it seems not free. So I consider ramfs, get rid of the hard disk, replace Flash, save enough money to add more memory ..., opened a lot of will, the final decision is indeed feasible. The next rootfs production process made me suffered enough, in 2001 the popularity of Linux is far from now, people around do not have any experience, information can be found online talk little, and then only sohu, yahoo, it is only later I know google, no way, only a little bit of exploration, driving from Flash, lilo, kernel, then the Sysinitrd startup script, a file to add a file, and then link libraries ... after a long time, and finally out something out and recognized the boss: the product can be added to the above to go. Look at this stuff do their own ship, and my heart is called a cool. I am wrong, and today I just want, I will be able to google a others to do the rootfs, remove the test up to two weeks to complete everything I had.
So soon, I left, and left the Fuzhou to Xiamen.
The second house is a listed company, when I went to is its brilliant, generous boss to carry out a variety of new business, nominal electronics industry, real estate and cars are staring at these two fat. But all that has little to do with me, I want to do, but also the company's new business in the country is just emerging: MP3 player. Let me change jobs to get involved in new areas, developing from fairly simple software, to not be separated from the oscilloscope multimeter. From gcc to keil, from vi to source insight.
Everything is very fresh. But because the causes and hardware engineers to work together, I always feel like doing something a child toss and he is very similar, so full of enthusiasm, and made the whole day. Unfortunately, unfortunately, come to my head again, the company's main business began to appear two years after the loss, cut marginal sector is natural, then, not to mention the domestic MP3 market has been occupied by a small factory in Shenzhen (time does not seem to. " cottage "concept). So I was "planning" to other departments. The company's business more and more apathetic, "amnesty" My boss and very exclusive, I think people outside the department, so I have been in the "idle" state. Half did not do a little something. How to do that, and quickly withdraw it.
Find a job again, and now came to this. TV-called do, just go when I know the TV is zero. Again set foot in new areas, which lack the basics, from how the TV signal modulation start, to how to receive, voice, image how demodulation, decoding, scaler ... Without these basic common sense, I can only bite a little bit, but I was surprised to find that their ability to accept new knowledge has been great as before. Fortunately, this company is known, is actually processing plants, development model is very simple: to get the hands of semi-finished products from the program, including the pcb, schematics, source code, and bom, and then find a few customers, they need not need to ask , we need to project, according to customer needs to change to change they need to be modified, UI-level demand, big changes directly to our factory, in fact, this TV thing to do for decades, customers can think of no better than the needs of the program business and more.
So basically you can not modify the production. From the project to delivery, sales and guest time commitment has always been three months. Therefore, in this spent less than three years, carefully count their own pass-through models actually higher to more than 20, but also one of the longest project eight months, busy time to engage with 4,5 section of the machine is normal thing. In this environment, the command ship is dead. Any problems can be resolved called outsourcing or factory. And I have to do is go process, issuing software, occasionally change to change bug. Three years down himself on television is still scanty, muddle. And it has been mingled now.
In this way, 30 years gone, nothing. No reason Niubi up under their own summary:
First, there is no accumulation
This proposition has accumulated too much, I can not say the whole, can only say one thing: the accumulation of technology is very important, very important.
My situation is very similar to the MP3 do when work is their lives, during the research, continuous work for 30 days, 2:00 to sleep every day, 8:00 back to the office, no rest days, not dating, oscilloscope stare stare into the eyes red, It is able to take a bath to wash out a hair expense, because it was felt taking advantage of young, can do a little bit, to learn a little more a little. Lived in the outside Xiamen Island, although the company every day car trips to and from the island 2,30 and factories, all my time a year to the island it 7-8 times. Very persistent for some time, but now looking back, unfortunately, white busy for two or three years. At that time efforts have not been any help to change my current life situation. Since that time learned something, now almost irrelevant, but basically forgotten the.
In my own as an example, left the company after work every two or three years, three years, for an industry should be just crossed the threshold of the door, I could see what's inside, but limited. Before I mistakenly thought had to do software, now or do software, another place against little their influence, in fact, this view is very bad, what software? Is C, Java, C #, the programming language itself? It is only a tool, like a surgeon , but his knife tools, thoracic surgery done in five years, just understand around the heart blood vessels, nerves, muscle tissue. Suddenly felt the pressure too much, working too hard, income is too low, then switch to do veterinary and live happy day sightseeing tour around to find the beast. Then let your dissecting a pig is not gotta learn from scratch? Is not nurse handed swords have not changed? But do not know where to begin. Decided to do the moment veterinarian, meaning that knowledge of Thoracic Surgery 5 year of school now irrelevant, under the banner of veterinarians to make money, and that the first five years is not wasted? You might feel that waste is an exaggeration, little more or less connected. Yes, but then five years later, a decade of practice is an old traveler, it might be a repeat appearance five years ago. The reason is simple.
Technology accumulation itself is a long process, boring, monotonous, and the process is very hard, not everyone insists that it is a fickle society. People accustomed to fast track development approach, there is a problem to find outsourcing, always best to have the results immediately, immediate become a necessity, hope flourishes, want something for nothing, are accustomed to fast-food life, we do not allow even the forum appear very long article, even if every word with substance will be despised. This is a social problem, but we must be very clear that there are social problems, we are in them, and certainly there are problems, we must always remind ourselves: there is no accumulation of achievements can not master. If you would like to be called a master, then adhere to.
Another point, the current environment, domestic enterprises rarely consider the training of engineers, and even training are no longer considered within the scope of the boss. Young engineers are in a state to fend for themselves. The boss hired you, or do you consider the most he can make a profit for him, how to create, and grow your own, you are improving your own thing.
Outside of work you have to pay more, truly their own efforts. We always complain about doing the simple, rough, no technical content live, fear not improved. Not necessarily, what technical content? Must have their own areas not covered by it? The oil poured into the technical content of the bottle it? Put two coins in the bottle it? Think counterparts, they are also doing the same work, think sweeping monk legendary, we will be more comfortable with their situation more clearly how to do it yourself.
The second point: About quit
This behavior has been popular for years N, young people always come across a little bit a little something goes wrong pleaded with him to leave, leave whether it is worth, this is a common theme, I say it can not change anyone's mind. I personally think that if you really feel that in addition to job-hopping, could have a better chance to achieve their goals, had to walk this road too late. Do not simply because they can earn a few hundred pieces of silver or a foul smells and leave your present position. Do their career planning, only that he wanted to become a kind of person to take every step chess. Are you interested in doing a fast hardware engineer, whether ready so hard to stay here? I do not despise the idea to make a lot of money as the ultimate goal, but the money certainly is a subsidiary product of hard work, which is a simple truth, but why a lot of people do not understand, do not even pretend to understand. Many engineers simply hopes to make a fortune in the development of 3 and 5 years -> 3, 5 years technical support -> 3, 5-year business -> fishing for a big one, when the boss - on> such a simple way to make a fortune, Yes, a lot of fast hardware owners are so over, so come over or similar. But before you decide to do you ever considered some of the more fundamental issues, such as how many people try to do, how many people can achieve the ultimate goal, it was in such materials business do? See himself from a stranger will speak stuttering child, excel at a slick profiteers, how much time? another example, 3,5 years of accumulated knowledge enough?
Luo said that the reason for the failure is only one, and that is halfway. If so, we might as well work in a company for a long period of time, so as to accumulate experience in the industry, so-called industry experience, nothing more than technical, business contacts.
Third, in-depth
It is my job to solve the problem. Solution to the problem is often more than one, you can use a simple patch wrapped around the problem, let him appear. Or check from the source to find the fundamental problem of where to put him out. At first sight, this seems to have nothing to say, who do not want to solve the problem from the root cause? But the scene is often not so simple, either you do not have the source code of this part, or when products are found deadly bug, several hundred people sit online the wait for you, you do not have time, or, you do not understand the code, then either you have not even read the chip specifications, do not know where problems may occur. Then they talk about how to solve the problem at the source of it? How can you not deeply understand what is really? Very often the reason for the progress of the boss will let you quickly get to the next bug, then how would you do? This is about the inertia and resistance the problem, the so-called character determines destiny, it can be seen how many clues point of it. Tasted, touched a camel look at the problem, only to their level always stay in the state for beginners. While you work can be replaced at any time just graduated newcomers, such as when a little large extent their own age dawned, it was too late.
These, in fact, can say a lot, but they are details. His summary of the results are often not very good, when the bureau's fans * Well, let people around to evaluate, will get more valuable information.
If the failure is not shameful, then these people can not live? Life is not success at all, only on the wonderful or not. I worked hard and there will be no regrets. No need to value orientation of others as their own standards of success, happiness, regardless of rich or poor, if you're like me, I think winter lying on the lawn in the sun is a pleasure that grandma all over the floor chasing his son is a nice, If you think your choice for themselves, and the courage to take life as it comes in all, you will get a wonderful copy of their own.
30-year-old, that's all, unsuccessful, but I do not think failure. When everyone agrees that only when success is defined to luxury cars, 99% of people in this society have failed, that failure is not a shameful thing. After all, we can craft their own to feed his family, not a shame.
