Hello Hive
This is coming from a once runaway member, I hope we are all good. Like always, I wish everyone the best of luck in our daily activities.
I chose to post this here as my first blog on Hive since almost 2 years ago now, I have not been able to post anything since last year March due to work related issue.
I stopped Hive too early as a beginner, why?
Because I was getting choked with work as a young guy who just started his career as an OSP Design Engineer in telecommunication infrastructure industry.
During the time I started Hive, I was the only design engineer for the former company I worked for, then it was hectic, I talked about it a little bit in this post, but I still used to have the chances to write my blogs at some points, until the company employed two more personnel to the design unit. At first, I though it will be easier, but it was way more challenging because the company had to make me a team lead of the Quality Assurance and Quality Control Unit, and I was also the Assistant Team lead to the design unit at the same time. I cannot explain the mental stress and frustration I went through with ordinary words.
It was during this period I discovered that;
• Mental stress drains energy more than physical stress
• To design a project is easier than to review and modify a design.
• Being a project supervisor is easier than managing a project.
Why I said mental stress is worse is that, I do engage myself in a lot of physical activities, for the matter of fact, I am a sport man. And I have never experience the tiredness I do get from mental stress no matter how hard I push myself for physical activities.
Moreover, if I am to build a design from scratch, it can be tasking but it is more easier, because, I know my destination and I know the certain steps I have designated for myself to follow to get to my destination, so if there is any mistake, I know where to go to and what to do to get it fixed on time. On like when you are to modify someone else’s design, you check through the design to find problems which is always there, then, you start finding solution to a problem you don’t know how it got there. And sometimes, you need to guide the designer to get the problems cleared and sometimes, you have to do it yourself and call their attention to it later.
However, when you are to supervise a project, you have to be there at list once daily, unlike QA team lead that only get to the chance to go to site once in a while, and to get some errors corrected sometimes, is always difficult unlike correcting it when it was new, and the causes of these errors are mostly as a result of negligence.
Therefore, going through all this stress were so challenging for me to be adding writings to it. Which is the major reason of my absence on hive for almost 2 years now.
But things is getting better lately, I got a better offer in another company, and I have lesser stress here now, I will be updating you guys on the new development in the future.
New me with lesser stress
Once again, I welcome myself back to this family, I am looking forward to enjoy other people’s stories again.
I hope you like this post. If you do, please let me know.
Thank you
