MongoDB Find

Did a stupid wee wee today by trying a syntax which looks okay in my eyes. Was wondering what went wrong. So used to using &gt to look for products or a condition for greater than.

MongoDB find option also has gt thus trying my hands on it only to appear this error.

SyntaxError: invalid property id @(shell):1:25

Frustrated, was wondering is it because there was an error in data, until I look closely at my syntax.

db.products.find({price:{&gt: 1}})

Seemingly it doesn’t look like anything is wrong, until I spotted after like 30 minutes later (I must have problem with my eyes)

Just replace that dang &gt into $gt.

Finding the Root Cause

A scenario in office.
What's the point of finding out the root cause when a solution is not done and pursued?

That is a sample way of how management is done poorly. Instead of griping on what is the cause of the issue, why not just solve the issue?

Issues should be solved before the root cause is to be determined? Just hate those chinaman company style of man management. So backwards.

That's why there so many turnovers in this company. No future. Time to look for another job I guess. 

No More Programming

Seems like what Rukky has learnt through out his career life and then finally he is putting down the serious programming stuffs he learnt away. There will be sublime programming stuffs like Visual Basic and the life here is pretty slow.

Well, at least there are some funny ones being made though.

New Life Slow Pace

New life is a slow pace. That's enough said of the situation I am in right now.

Unlike the time when I was put into a fast pace working life, this time it seems that there are many unfinish business but no one seemed to be in rush to finish it. What a way to start my career.

Probation and Observation

Ever since the office has been doing some checks on laptop during office hours, Rukky has not a chance to try to blog his thoughts on work in the office.

Of course, now being under observation period, it seems they have given us new guys false hope that the managers can confirm us or put us under the company where he/she deemed it fit to do it. Of course, there is also an existing company policy where they are freezing the permanent position in the company.

Is this how it ends? Receiving 4 new offers right now and most of them are seductive to my eyes.

Senior Super Reply

You know that whenever as employees of a company, there is always a team lead. When we make mistakes and the team lead finds out, he will point out the mistake and then comes the forlorn lecture.

Now what about when the team lead or the project manager makes the mistake in his coding. What will become of it?

Here is an example of what my colleague faced and told me about it after many times being told by the team lead. So he decided to see what will be the team lead's response when his mistake was found out instead.

He just came back and located the bug committed by the team lead.
Here was his reply when he told his team lead about it.

Colleague
Just got my first scolding from boss

Rukky
Why?

Colleague
I confirmed his bug, and he said " since you know the problem area, why dont you fix it?"

Seriously I was speechless beyond comprehension. Definitely a quote of the year.

Put Onto Observation

Looks like observation period has started and I do not have the Work at Home privilege. Seems to me that maybe it is a calling that this place is really not for me.

I think I have miss out one part in our conversation. As part of the 1 month observation period, please ensure that you are in office and I will be temporarily rejecting all your W@H request till further updates.

Seems to me I am under scrutiny.
