Bye delivery , it was time for me to move to front seat to grab better picture on the whole services

 

This was my 1st post for year 2012 , i tender and leaving HP last year to pursuit something different which yr doing for 5 year plus.

Still remember when i start my 1st job in IT line , i was working in a division size and it grown up to a department within the same company for 5 year , and i straight jump to SI sector for 6 yr in financial sector.

From 1995 till 2011 , i learn alot of stuff and engage alot kind of people from Malaysians , European , US , Korea, China , Singapore , African .  From White , Yellow , Black Skin..:)

HP was a total different area of work which talk about service and delivery . Service is like when customer wanted HP to grab part of their business process such as BPO/ITO/DC/Network/Payroll and so on… it involve not only IT actually.

My new jobs was position as solution analyst , no more team lead/SPOC/ Programming /On call / Midnight call …  it was about design and document a solution which can be deploy and sales to our customer and the area was about Manage Services. Interest !!!! .

I will blog more about this area in future , do watch up my blog.

Seoul City is well plan and link with their subway train and it was easily for people like us especially to work around and transits from different lines too . Although it initial was confuse because from 1 line to another line , we require to walk a few instance but the sign on the subway was easily and most of the time we manage to get our way out and in.

JIhachui is one of the best provide offline subway map and enable us to find out the place we need to go. There was suggestion for faster or lessees stop . In Korea Subway it only count from source destination to target destination distance , no matter how many stop or transit you take it still the same prices ..Smile

IPhone Map- (Iphone map was not working well because I didn't enable the data plan and mainly using Wifi hotspot to download the map whenever I come across any places with free Wifi.,,Smile

Skype -  Although I did’t enable data plan but Korea Wifi is really the best around , a 2 star hotel can offer speed bar with Unifi (Malaysia higher broadband running in fiber channel) , with 2 Star above we get 10MB up and down..Smile , There was a Network which I manage to connect but I did’t realize till my friend Alex told me that this network have open port for Skype and it enable me to talk with my wife at least for last few days .

Goodyear F1 Asymmetric 2 maint & run

I got to thank Kl Peace rally , today at Kapar Road tyre shop was not much of customer.

Below 2 are my old donut which last me for < 2 year , GY F1 Asymmetric also the inner side thread was totally “eat in”….terrible for a FD2

Home 298Home 299

There wasn’t much of choice as my idea Nexen was out of stock and left only Yokohama S.Drive which is around rm3xx ..but I though this was a very old old model and the comment was not really good.

Michelin PS3 make in Thailand but was quote at rm 49x….terrible expensive. so I ask that lady about the new GY Asym 2 and she said there was stock on it and I  can immediate mock it once payment done and further it was make in Germany..

So I told myself , this was my only time and last time to run a Germany tyre ,and it better work and durable..

Home 293Home 294

On the left was D5 and right was Asymmetric 2.

Home 298Home 297

This was the front and side shoot of this F1 Asymm 2..look nice ???

Home 296

As result of first customer , I manage to get a discount on Nitro gas for all of my tyre.Smile 

According to her , this gas is lighter and if we travel long journey it is cooler then normal gas..Smile

 

 

 

 

Anyway I am going to eat mix-rice for the rest of my month to recover back the extra budget.
