Working in medium scale company (500+ employees, 6 branches in Malaysia) as Engineer - test vendor's motherboard, run my software on vendor's machine, carry and install machine in test tower when visitors come, carry machine back to my work cubicle when visitors gone (coz only got one evaluation copy), when need to test new product, boss wants me to immediately set it up at test tower to see problems that may arise, instead of testing at a simulator panel nearer to my work area first. So when problems arise, must carry my monitor, k/b and mouse to test tower to debug there. It is tiresome because I must WALK up the test tower. Apart from that, give presentation to visitors on the company's products, talk to vendors, setup demo things for visitors. More headache when setting up for visitors because when I cannot find the cables and cards, or when settings were changed earlier, I have to troubleshoot or makeshift something to come out with the answer. Problem = always WASTING time IMPROVISING. It is not a learning experience because I know the answer and it is the only resource that I have and that I know works. When you run out of time, the answer is what you have with you.

OT is limited to RM200 per month, earning RM2k and working on Saturdays, except 1st and 3rd Saturdays.
