Post gw terakhir mengindikasikan gw sedang mengumpulkan keberanian untuk berpindah pekerjaan, yang sayangnya hingga saat ini masih belum cukup. Surat resignation belum sama sekali ditulis. Pencarian lowongan hanya sekedar browsing-browsing atau bertanya-tanya sambil lalu, tidak sampai ke tahap pengiriman cv.
Sepertinya banyak pekerja di indonesia yang mengalami sindrom ini. Mungkin banyak yang ngerasa gak enak dengan bos, masih ada kerjaan yang belum selesai (dan mungkin gak selesai2), atau takut pindah karena merasa posisinya sudah mapan dan punya bawahan. Seems natural and I'm one of it :P
Luckily saat gw masih berkutat dengan keengganan gw, fate intervened. Ada perubahan besar di minggu ini. Perusahaan gw bekerja akan diserap ke main companynya menjadi salah satu divisi mereka, secara permanen. It's an internal politics that way out of my league. Jadinya banyak yang akan berubah, spesifikasi pekerjaan dan jenjang karirnya akan jauh berbeda. Beberapa rekan gw sudah memilih untuk keluar, walaupun perusahaan menawarkan untuk menjadi auditor bagi orang-orang yang tetap tinggal.
Dan untuk gw ?
There's no option, gw harus segera mencari perusahaan yang sesuai dengan tujuan jangka panjang gw. Waktu untuk ragu-ragu telah habis, i can't escape it anymore !
Now, time to look for my option, and decide. Wish me luck :D

Si tak punya nyali
Yeah, itu panggilan gw untuk diri gw sendiri saat ini :P
Waktu dulu pertama kali kerja (saat part-timer dan kp), butuh waktu sekitar 2 bulan untuk berhenti. Itu juga karena ganti semester jadinya beban kuliahnya bener-bener berat baru bisa ngomong. Padahal udah gak betah dari 2 bulan sebelumnya. Soalnya dorongan untuk senang-senang menjadi mahasiswa masih tinggi.
Di pekerjaan selanjutnya, butuh waktu 2 tahun untuk sadar, walaupun udah lulus dan bekerja ternyata mental mahasiswa tetap ada. Harus keluar dari tempat itu supaya bisa maju, tetapi tetap aja Handing The Resignation is a painfull job for me :(
Dan di pekerjaan yang sekarang, that takes me to three years a go ...
Waktu interview untuk pekerjaan ini gw melakukan sesuatu yang benar2 bodoh. Saat ditanya rencana ke depan gw bilang gw berencana untuk kerja disini 2 tahun setelah itu cari kerja di eropa, tapi tergantung peruntungan juga. Hehehe semua temen gw yang gw ceritain tentang kata-kata gw itu langsung ngetawain gw. Setelah gw pikir2 dari segi owner iya sih, that a stupid statement from me. Tapi bagaimana lagi memang begitulah gw, daripada menyimpan2 sesuatu yang crucial seperti itu, gw lebih suka untuk jujur. Dan untungnya gw tetap diterima walaupun mengeluarkan stupid comment seperti itu :P
Dan sekarang, bulan ini, tepat 3 tahun gw bekerja di tempat ini. So much for my plan :D gak jadi deh berangkat ke eropa :). Tapi itu bukan berarti gw hanya berdiam diri. Setahun lalu, atau tepatnya 2 tahun setelah gw bekerja disini, gw memulai sebuah project dengan teman-teman gw. Dan sedikit-banyak hal itu mempengaruhi keputusan gw sebelumnya. Sepertinya pergi keluar dari indonesia akan membuang effort yang telah dikeluarkan oleh gw dan teman-teman gw. Dan karena itu juga lah gw bertahan hingga tahun ke 3.
But now, things are different. Gw mulai tidak kerasan, beberapa orang udah pergi, pindah ketempat lain. Tetapi tetap saja berat untuk gw untuk menyerahkan pengunduran diri. Sebagian mungkin karena project gw dan temen-temen gw. Gw butuh kondisi yang stabil, tanpa intervensi lembur, agar project itu bisa berjalan dengan mulus. Selain itu untuk harus mulai lagi ditempat baru tanpa jatah cuti, its like a pain in the ass. Dan juga masih ada sebagian temen-temen gw yang ada disini.
Seems like a reasonable reason right ? Atau sebenarnya hanya alasan gw karena gw gak punya nyali. Gw tahu apa yang harus gw lakukan. Gw harus mencoba bekerja di tempat yang lebih mapan dari segi bisnis proses atau struktur perusahaan. Gw butuh tahu gw bisa survive ditempat seperti itu. Banyak yang harus di korbankan, harus berjuang dari bawah lagi, tapi tanpa itu gw tidak bisa maju lebih jauh lagi.
Walaupun gw tahu apa yang harus gw lakukan, tapi ternyata keberanian yang gw kumpulkan belum cukup. Everythings will be changed, nothing stay the same. Dasar tak punya nyali :P. Yeah just take it easy, you know it's inevitable. So take a deep breath, summon up your courage, and start writing that resignation letter !

A Tapestry 4 Introduction
http://www.devshed.com/c/a/Apache/Apache-Tapestry-4-Tutorial/
This page is awesome!!! I just found it couple of days a go.
When it comes to java web programming I immediately skip to Tapestry. So I didn't learn those tiny servlet, or annoying JSP tags, i even knew very little about javascript. So that article give me great insight, and I'm thankful i don't have to go through that road :D

Wiki
For couple of weeks i have this urge to install a wiki on my personal computer, and yesterday that urge finally satisfied, and I'm so Happy :D.
The quest start about a week a go, i'm looking for ready to be download wiki's on the internet. To my surprises i found out there's so many available wiki to be downloaded out there. It's like every one in the internet trying to make their own wiki :). So i try to compare some of them, and the more confused I've become.
Actually i already have a wiki in mind, its MediaWiki. A Wiki that being used for wikipedia, i've gotten used to reading wikipedia formatted article, and the interface is just so clean and nice :D. But at the first glance at MediaWiki site, i see that MediaWiki only provide online hosting for people that wanted to create their own wiki. So it doesn't suit my purpose and i began to look at other wiki. I found couple of good ones such as trac, and tikiwiki and starting to download them. Luckily, thats when i realized that MediaWiki provide a downloadable source. I'm so ashamed i didn't see it at the first time:P
So i download MediaWiki and try to install it at home.
First Day
MediaWiki is based on php with mysql or postgres as the Database. I Couldn't find any java based wiki that i can give more point than MediaWiki. So i stick with the best.
I'm a java developer for almost 3 years. My php skill sucks, i stuck at the beginner level and decided immediately not to pursue that path and stick to java. But i've previously succeded couple of time installing php on my computer. So i started installing apache httpd server on my computer, which is a piece of cake. And then installing php 5.0 which i try for couple of hours, but didn't work. Damn, its seems so easy 3 years a go. So i give up and decided to look for clue's in the internet tomorrow.
Second Day
I've download a step by step guide for installing php and httpd server from the internet, and also download the newest source for php and apache httpd server. Just in case my source conflicted with each other.
After following the guide, i've finally got php working on my computer. I've just missing a line from php.ini *yeah, that one annoying unimportant line:P*. So i tried installing media wiki, but when i try to configure it, a message saying that my php doesn't support mysql. No driver found for that database. I tried loading the module, restarting apache, but still it shows the same message.
I didn't have the source to compile php from scratch, and besides the docs definitely said that mysql support is already built in. So i tried installeng the newest php version. But still the same problem showed.
I'm thinking of giving up and look for some info the next day. But for one last try i try a futile effort and usually cure most wierd problems in windows. Restarting the computer. And magically it worked :P
Wikipedia only for me
And its totally worthed, i finally got my wiki working. And start creating a few docs for my project. The MediaWiki is so intuitive so i've got to almost 70% productivity just by guessing how it worked. By the time this is the first time i ever tried to edit a wiki. Argh, i'm so excited and delighted. I can also finally organize my ideas and though from my notes to a more organized media.
But got to learn the tutorial though :P
