Java - My PaSsioN

This is something dat i see everyday..

public String getMsgContent(String region_zone, String productID,
String keyword, String state_district)
{
DecimalFormat myFormatter = new DecimalFormat("###,##0.00");

String returnstr = "";
String queryStr =
"select product, price, unit from abcd.abcd_products_price where product_ID = '"
+ productID + "' and " + keyword + " like '%" + region_zone + "%'";

Connection con = dbman.getConnection();
try
{
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(queryStr);


sometimes HTML codes too.. I have no idea on why i ended up being a programmer.. i dun really like to code.. but still i'm doin it..

one thing is whenever i'm on a task in java.. i will really get into it.. so muc attention and effort will b put.. it's certainly an euphoria if an application coded has got 0 error 0 bugs or etc..

Being a programmer in Malaysia is like being an Indonesian construction worker doing the manual laborous work of laying out bricks.

The pay is *shit* and appreciation of your work is low.

Most of the time you have to answer to talentless managers who can't code jack shit but they dictate what you should do and set unrealistic schedules/goals without ever consulting you first.

In Malaysia, asia in general, it's a waste of career path to be coding as an employee for life.

Programmers have always been commoditized because as a trading nation, there's little respect for knowledge workers in Malaysia.

It's always the management, sales and marketing people who thinks they're above the techie/programmers and programmers are paid too low for the work they do nowadays.

I am still a programmer, I still code, but no more as an employee, and if possible, never again will I code for any boss and answer to any manager.

I will deal only with customers and get all the money I charged for.

Ultimately, I intend to use my skills to acquire income from oversea customers and focus as little as possible in the local market because there simply isn't much demand and people are not willing to pay even decent rates.

I am sick of the IT industry in Malaysia and hope to have nothing to do with it in the employment sector ever again. Never again as an employee coder.

csc : lucky u! u duneed to face crappy things

shadowfox : ya i agree with u.. work is shit and appreciation low..

darrenz : IT is not my cup of tea la.. sian lor

Darren, no lah I don't hate to be a programmer.

I just hate to be a programmer answering to undeserving people.

I love programming and I've been coding since I was 13 years old.

Alicia, you don't want to be a programmer, then what would you want to be eventually ? Self-employed ? :P
