update where I'm

今天下午到Sigma, 参加两天的SQL Server 面试，周五晚回上海。　

除了面试之外，还想见见几个一直在 IM　和电话上沟通，但没有谋面的别的部门同事。　

准备吃饭，想起以前面试时有个候选人说的，知道北京最好吃的肉夹馍和炸酱面在哪儿。 :)

See you, 2007!

See you, 2007!

I would like to take this post as my reviewing of 2007. In 2007, I did one thing right, joined Microsoft. I did one thing wrong, pushing myself too hard after joining.

30th Dec, after 3 hours’ train, backed hometown Yiwu, and spent the following 3 days there.

@ first day of 2008, sitting at balcony, from the morning to the noon, I’m just like an old man, thinking about nothing with empty brain. The widen field and warm sunshine surrounded my eyes and my body. On the eyesight, there are the old houses, going to be vanished, and new townhouses in construction, and the highway, airport. Following is some snaps I took.

After 1 year, the old houses are going to be vanished, the past life will only existing in the memory. Can’t say I was happy or sad about this, the things going to happen have not launched yet, I even expecting it.

The new ones are replacing old ones. Life is moving, villagers are calm, I’m sitting with nothing, good to have unplugged for a while.

Back to a while ago, I went to Shanghai and choose to be “white collar” just as most of the rest of the young men. My classmates of primary & middle school, most of them fail the entry exam of national university, same as me, with no choices, they became businessmen.

Unlike me, they not have to worry about “ppt” or “excel” staffs, they are considering how to sell the “Made in China” quickly to allover the world. The Yiwu Small Commodity City is one of the largest wholesale market of daily goods in Asia, and half of X’mas goods were exported from China, among them, half of them exported from Yiwu.

some samples picked from candidates' resume

Will keep this subject updated.

Resume 1:
"
职业特长和技能
熟悉UNIX、WINDOWS操作系统
熟悉VB、VC、PB、DEPHI、ASP、JSP、JAVA、C++、C等编程语言
熟悉ORACLE、SQL SERVER、INFORMIX、SYSBASE等数据库
"
Resuem 2:
"I am familiar with mainstream software developing tools, technologies
and methods, such as VB, C, C++, C#, Java, J2EE, Python, SQL, Web, XML,
STL, UML, RUP... I am a good programmer, a good designer, and a good
project leadership also. "

I would reckon these descriptions as: have knowledge but good at nothing.

MS training

微软的培训课程除了通过海报，网站查询之外，还会通过meeting schedule 直接发到每个员工的信箱里。通过这种形式参加了一次主题为 MS Office Project 在软件的项目管理中的应用的培训。
印象深刻的除了是微软的 MVP (Most Valuable Professional) 来上课之外，就是对于参加培训的 incentive. 回答问题奖一个毛绒玩具，填写反馈问卷再送一个礼品，参加培训（中午）可领免费餐券，本来是个小会议室，结果那天去了太多了，搬到了大会议。

接下来是 SQL 的，每周三中午 SQL Shanghai team 和 Beijing team 有一个 SQL Server Tech Talks, 大家交流 best practice.
上周我是冲着 Papa Johns的 Pizza 去的，却发现讲座本身也挺有意思的。

SQL Beijing 的一个工程师结合他的工作体会以及学习心得，给大家讲了关于设计模式的一课. 从 strategy pattern (copy & paste / switch / inheritance 的优劣)， Facade Pattern, 到 Data-driven pattern, 每一种模式都结合了在 SQL 开发过程中的应用来讲，并附上具体的代码分析。当然我不能把它们贴上来，但是他举到了例子有 relay engine 等. 他还举到了一个例子很易懂，在逻辑结构上如果有很多 "if /else" 的话，则可以保持逻辑结构不变，把判断中的变量单独抽取出来，并且还可以更进一步，比如储存为 XML 文件，则对于代码的后期维护十分方便。

最后则以告诉大家在公司内部网站上哪儿能找到关于设计模式的资料，以及回顾一些经典书籍，如 gang of four 的。
看来我可以把第三种 Data-driven pattern 用在自己 ...

I and my 3 jobs

想把我认为的工作，归成为三类，有两类是做过的和正在做的，还有一类是即将去做的。

第一类是做过的，把它归结为公益。
在1997年的时候从师范学校毕业，然后分配去市一所高中，位置偏僻，是山区。从1997到2001年，我做了四年的高中政治老师，2001年在我的高三学生参加高考的时候来到上海寻找另一次冒险。毕业的时候我21岁，和学生的年龄差不多，为了想要说明那时有多么地和学生打成一片，比如说一起拿个饭盆和学生排队打饭，然后会有人拍我肩膀说，陈老师，今天吃什么。另一个例子是，周五放学和我学生一起冲到操场踢足球。为了让政治课变成让大家喜闻乐见的课程，在每堂课上课前我都想办法讲一些新闻或者是趣闻，然后再结合今天上天课内容来分析。有时候一些哲学里面的道理是比较抽象的，我就把一堂课变成两方的对辩。新闻渠道的来源比较馈乏，我在1998年的时候由家里资助买了一万五千块钱的电脑配上打印机和打描仪，用小猫拨号上网，把一些新闻时事摘下来打印在幻灯片上，放给大家看。可以不惭愧地说，每一课政治课学生都翘首期盼。证明是，那时候上课的时候班长要喊起立，然后我说同学们好，然后大家喊，老师好。每次到我上课的时候，老师好这三个字就被喊得倍喊，男同学扯得嗓子喊，女同学就笑，然后上课就开始。“话说。。。。”
我想说的是，除了以上这些，我尽力想做的是，以自己浅短的见识和经验，还是想教给大家看事情和分析的道理。

之所以把我的这一� ...
