Saturday Star 2012-08-25 – Job Opportunities
September 3, 2012To all readers, Eid Mubarak (yes, I’m a few days late, not making up my own madhab).
C’mon. Buy my recommendations, or through my Amazon store. Where are those corporate sponsors? Or throw donations at me.
If you need my help to submit your CVs, donate to the blog, and I’ll review your CV to see if it is worthy of my (and my associates’) expectations. If you can’t figure out how to donate, no need to ask.
- I’m looking for a senior process engineer, 7+ years experience. Send your cv here . Also looking for process safety persons, lead piping designer, lead instrument engineer, and other seniors you think will catch my eye.
- Think the papers are on Eid Leave
May I suggest that readers try Bluestacks? Run your Android apps on your Windows tablet, so you can buy that Win8 tablet (and buy me one) without worrying you won’t have anything to play on it!
Support your local bookshop! Bookalicious at The Summit Subang is a good choice. I think they focus on trilogies, quadrilogies, and other ologies. Tell them I sent you, and enjoy the look of perplexity on their faces. Those of you who have dropped my name, thanks!
As this is Ramadhan, the mind turns to the history of computer hacking. Yes, you go find the link between the two.

Tales from the Engineering Floor – PPGUNA?
August 29, 2012Those of you who are forced to work in the oil & gas industry will no doubt have heard of the PPGUA, PETRONAS Procedures and Guidelines for Upstream Activities. Well, from the picture below, I can see PETRONAS issuing cease and desist letters to a certain Indian restaurant soon.
BTW, do you call it “PeePeeGUA” or “PaPaGua”? or “PapaPapaGua”?
