現今搵工真艱難，我積極搵工三個幾月，每天都有發求職信，可惜致今只有六次面試機會，職位要求由經理級降至分析員，工資由3、4萬元降至2.5萬元，但是仍未成功，曾經面試的機構沒有工廠，只有一間是商業的，其餘是NGO或政府有關的機構，例如：無國界、醫管局、機電署、警署及中電。我想應該是中美問題令工商發展停頓，還搗個「逃犯條例」問題影響各界投資，短期內唯有靠政府支持失職問題啦。我相信我寫的「IT人在工廠日記」要停止了，因為工廠式微，似乎我已經無機會再返工廠工作了。可能50幾歲已算職場老年人，差不多要退休了。

在這幾個月，我除了搵工外，我之前寫過幾個blog講命理:

認識幾位網友，趁空閒便發算命廣告給他們，幸好發出24封有4封付費批命的回覆，幫補生活，十分感激。

另外，我試緊做傳銷，加入了婕斯Jeunesse和Astar，主要推廣健康補充品，而我亦修讀了幾個課程，成為認可的營養保健師和中醫藥膳製作師(中級) ，希望對推廣補充品有幫助，以下為本人網店網址，歡迎瀏覽購物:

還有，我一向對按摩推拿有興趣，可能要把興趣變成職業，我已有以下的專業資格：

徒手理療師 (INMA國際自然療法學院)

催眠治療師 (NGH美國國家催眠師公會)

伸展導師 (HKSEA香港伸展運動學會)

手法整形療法證書 (TQUK英國國家認可)

徒手整形證書 (IMTA國際手法治療協會)

顱薦椎療法文憑 (HKFTU香港工會聯合會)

可惜我沒有治療經驗和入行門路，現時只靠登廣告和在面書facebook宣傳，如下:

我開始了這治療事業一個多月，亦服務過一名客人，而我亦會繼續進修學習，讀整脊師和寵物按摩課程，希望之後會有發展機會啦！

繼續努力！

之前一直在工廠工作，沒有現時流行行業的經驗，例如：電商、金融、AI、雲、大數據…等等，正所謂跟不上潮流，技術落後了，被淘汰也是正常的。在兩個半月的搵工期間，只面試過兩份工，不包括Agent的見面，但是很多Agent的介紹都是失敗，例如，Agent介紹過HSBC, 金山…等等，都是沒有回音的，唔知是否中美關系拖累很多公司的招聘呢？ 本人現年五十有餘，自認有豐富的工作經驗，亦知道現實情況，之前我要求工作的起薪是三至四萬元，現時已降至兩萬五，繼續睇睇是否會被IT行淘汰吧?

本人離開前公司差不多兩個月，如果前公司有工作問題問我，我也會回應，順便了解公司近況。 公司之前管理層有五名香港人和一名韓國人總經理，兩個月期間已裁走或迫走了三名香港人(包括我自己)，應該節省了很多工資費用的支出，裁員本是正常的收縮和節流的做法，但是我跟其他兩位被裁員工討論後，我們被快速裁走的另一原因，是因為我們阻礙其他人收回佣騙公司錢；我聽說他們把很多值錢的設備用賤價賣出，例如二手值二十多萬元的設備，只用六萬元賣出，很令人懷疑。我之前也寫過收回佣行騙公司的事情，參考” IT人在工廠日記 – 老板的私心” 一文，文中的所寫的”老板”其實就是那位韓國人總經理，現時他們可放心地騙錢啦，沒有人會防礙他們了。如果 他們 不被揭發，是他們好運，希望他們及早回頭吧！

我於3月26日參加阿里雲支援香港科技券計劃 (TVP)的研討會，覺得申請科技券支助的手很煩複，要政府錢就是麻煩。
研討會除了介紹科技券計劃，亦介紹一些雲應用方案，內容豐富，值得參加。
在研討會中有些有用的資料如下圖，供你參考。
         

Although I was layoff, I still needed to work in office in the notification period. I did some clean-up work in our office and threw away several boxes of rubbish to refuse collection point. However, company did not trust my work. Then, HR asked my best friend colleague to check my throw-away stuff; and I went to the refuse collection point with the colleague to show those throw-away stuff. It was really a shame to me.

I wanted to be a responsible person to continue to help company, but company worried I would do bad thing to company. Some company was very means. So, did not over-estimate your reputation and professional ethics; did your work more careful in your layoff notification period in order to avoid any misunderstand.

I aware that my company is in a very difficult finance situation because of market decline and trade war between US and PRC last year. My company had a big loss starting from the US import tax increase to 10% (even 25%) last year. I was worry about layoff for a long time. Although I expect I will be layoff within year 2019, the layoff is a little bit earlier than I guess. I was layoff by company in the end of Feb. My last day will be a month later, which means company do not pay me one month notification, but ask me to continue to work for a month. My company is too means.

Anyways, I need to find another job aggressively, maybe decrease my starting salary to even HK$25k/month for new job.

Hope I will be good luck.

Year of Dog has already gone. Year of Pig is coming.

In year 2019, my company is still in difficulty situation. Because of trade war between China and US, my company is spreading blood. If trade tax further increases (10% -> 25% -> more), my company will loss more and may further downsize (even shutdown) the operation in China. Actually, our company is planning and is going to outsource operation to other country (such as Korea, Vitname, etc), and reduce staff in China and Hong Kong.

As my risk plan on career, I took several courses last year. I got PMP cert last year, but I did not find it could help me to find another job. I think I will leave IT field if I am layoff by company. I have another plan, and I got several cranio sacral therapist cert last year. I may develop another career path to do energy healing work. Hope it is suitable to me.

Good Luck to everyone in Year of Pig.

我之前有位公司同事離職時，被我們發現他虧空公款，但是我們放他一馬，只要他交還公款，便不再追究。最近，得知這位同事又想回公司上班，我跟老板提起這事，可是，老板仍然招他回來。

這件事，令我聯想起乾隆與和申的關系，雖然乾隆知道和申是貪官，只因乾隆的私心，自己喜歡，便重用和申，任其貪污。實際上，有些老板是不會介意員工的貪污行為，只要員工能討好老板歡心，貪小小錢，小事姐。
