Time flies. It's the end of 2022. The only word to represent 2022 is "Change".
Originally, the life is always the same (stable?). Boss is still bossy. Customer is still friendly to me. Audit always run smoothly. Stakeholders... uhm.... some are not reasonable, but most are OK to communicate with. No new things to learn, no difficult thing to stuck me. It looks good. Right?
One day, my classmate delivers my CV to a company without my permission. Then, change starts.....
Before welcome 2023, I wanna recap my 2022.
Jan.
2 Qualcomm audits.
Still in COVID. No customer is allowed in FAB. In many calls and making video to support customer audits.
Damn it. We have to learn how to code a IT program to make report automatically.
New experience that we could WFH.
Got good money bonus from current company and it make me get higher package from next company. Lucky and appreciate!
Feb.
Happy CNY from Jan. 31~Feb. 6.
衛武營走春 on Feb. 5th.
No audit this month, but prepare a big Qualcomm audit in Mar..
Stuck in coding IT program.
Take 2nd vaccine and have 2-day break.
No idea why we have to do meaningless in-line 5S audit in day/night shift. Almost be off around 21:00 after night shift audit.

Mar.
Done a 3-day Qualcomm audit. Still be smoothly. My boss is satisfied and also recognize I am good at that.
Done a Broadcom audit. Still be smoothly. All are on track.
Finish 2nd interview with A*** comapny on Mar. 3rd and negociate pay and job grade.
KH Power down on Mar. 3rd and almost show down my video interview.
Unexpectedly, they fulfill all my requirements and issued offer soon.
To leave or Not to leave, it is a diffcult question.
Discuss with many many many persons. Not only family members, but also friends. Finally, 90% recommend to try it since it's a rare opptunity and then..... I resign the company where I stay 5 years. Luckily, I got 6,500 bonus points to store in my iPass. Of course, everyone is shock and no one dare to share this news to customer. Funny... XD.
Apr.
Even though I am going to leave, I still finish 1 audit in Apr. Still good result.
My boss talked to me and asky me why to leave. Well...they could understand that current pay is so low and is not competitive with other company. Then I start my personal leaves in April 15. Finish the 5-year journey on Apr. 25th in that company.
During off days, stay home to prevent to get COVID.
Go to Tainan to look for place to rent.
Sleep and take break.
No oversea trip because of COVID. What a pity.
May

Excited to be new again.
Still WFH bi-weekly. Only meet partial co-workers in office.
Facility is sooooooooo good. Really a rich company.
Meet my leader. Orginally, I think he is short, but he is soooo tall (around 185cm??) when I see him.

Jun.
In culture shock like in hell.
Not understand what happend and what the logic is.

Got COVID on Jun. 17th. >_<

Asia big boss personality is attractive and he is also good at convincing. I decide to take a new role even though I am not that confident to do it well. He promised he will guiding me. Then I accept.
Send me to Netherland 10 days.... for team building? or for wide my view?
Long time not go abroad. Everything is fantastic. Never been Netherland before. Go to Amsterdan airport. Kinderdijk/ Rotterdam sightseeing. Drive to Belgium and German. Climb on Cologne Cathedral to have a beautiful overview.

Briefly go through 2022 (maybe not that briefly....). It changes so fast. Too fast to adapt with it. It makes me struggle and feel no value.
Lucky that I get many mentor co-worker and friends' support. They talk me a lot. (3 hours per time) I can feel they really wanna me be better.
I hope it could come true and I believe I will be better in 2023. Now is in obstacle course for training.
