vacation again??
the mail i received from mr. manager today was totally different from the previous mails I got from him this month. and since, im expecting a news on my project/work status from him i hurriedly decided and ask the project leader to go home early ( around 7pm ), though I usually go home between 7-8pm, I was planning to stay a little late today to finish the testing im doing. anyways, it was not so good news ( work wise ) since according the agent who put me in this client, I have communication problem. Huh?? the first question mr. manager asked, is that if the work is difficult and if i properly report my progress. well first of all, im not a genius to master everything about the project which i did not code in less than 3 weeks, second our work progress is monitored everyday. we give our progress report of the previous day in our morning meeting, then after that someone will approach each member to ask for a status a few hours after the morning meeting and a few hours after lunch, then before we go home for day we have to give a very detail daily report and of course there is also the work schedule written on the white board. all of these, ive followed. so i wonder why they say that I’ve got a communication problem, work-related or is it a non-work related communication problem 
:p
although i already know that the initial contract was only for a month, to help with their bug fixes, i don’t think it is fair to make excuses. my suspicion is that the client has no more work to assign to me right now. I don’t know which side gave the reason, the actual client or the agent but if my work ends, oh well so be it too bad though, I like the atmosphere of the company , its totally different compared to the different work place ive been too but its business and im just glad that i know beforehand…
well know the final decision next week if am going to enter vacation mode again… yipee….

Hey Ideru! Your job situation sounds tough! I hope things get worked out on whoever’s end is causing the problems between you, your boss and/or agent. Sounds like someone is misunderstanding something somewhere. Now, if only you could find that bug, eh? Wanna code some php for me?

Another vacation is always nice. As for the communication problem, well, I think Japan’s work culture is just too stiff, strict, whatever. Reporting everyday seems like a waste of time for me (that’s why I left!). Ok, not entirely - one of the reasons I left.

@Kyle.. well hope it will get clarified somehow, does not matter if i stay or not, just want to know the real reason. It’s been ages since Ive done any Php work, but if im on vacation again, we’ll give it a try..
@Grace,yeah its soo true. my manager said, that maybe they just don’t want to take the responsibility so they made up excuses or whatever
