nattalieSales manager is settled in my office, my coworker Daniel has returned from vacations.... already complaining because he doesn't want to work.. I have not peace in this place 
After lunch I tried to read a little of my programming book because I am stucked with some leasson (very stupid and basic stuff) but it was not posible, they were talking so much and Daniel can't let his foot quiet a second, he is making noise nonstop. I have asked to him so many times to stop doing it but he just ignore me and makemore noise... childish as fuck.
I wish I could quit this job and join a company where people wants to grow and be productive instead to be mediocre, but at my age and in this country that is not going to happens

on 2017-11-28 11:33 pm (UTC)I work in sales department for a company, my main work is administrative tasks, but I also do other tasks that have to do with marketing, design, webdesign, seo, sem, etc.
I am not designer (I wish I be one) but I learned some few things by my own because I love getting new skills.
Few years ago I got fired from a job (because I didn't accept a trio with my boss and his wife) so to pay the rent while I looked for new job I started selling designs for Mercado Libre users. I got many clients. Last year I went back to the project but I want to do a professional job (I admit I know nothing,I am the John Snow of the designers) so I started to study HTML, CSS, Javascript and I also started to study programming because I would love working on that. I was about to start with Python which I read is the best language to start learning but a friend who is programmer told me to start with C++ so he can help me, so I try to learn it as well.
I use some free tools to learn, online platforms like Udemy or edX, eBooks, reading blogs, etc. Sadly I work 10 hours every day so I don't have so much free time to study, and this is why I feel so bad when I am lazy and I am not working on my goals :(

on 2017-11-29 03:21 am (UTC)You're right, I wasn't thinking clearly. Besides, what if the book gets damaged?
Ugh, what an abusive creep was that former boss of you; I'm sorry about how that went.
It looks like you're trying to learn a *ton* of new things at the same time while working on your body and working ten hours a day and working on your mood. It's a lot! You more than earn whatever amount of just-because-you-enjoy-them things you can find the time for.

on 2017-11-29 04:49 pm (UTC)OMG I didn't think about that!! If a book gets damaged I 'll feel very bad for sure.
Yes that is exactly what I am trying to do but I should be able to do all those things and maybe more, I just need support and cafeine :D
When I like something, I do it with passion. I love learning things this is why I want to learn so many things at same time, I can't help! I also can be kinda annoying for other people because I am like a kid asking all the time "how this work? why? where? can I try it?" This is how I learn almost everything I know, even with machines/devices/etc I am always with a screwdriver in the hand disarming things and watching a video on internet to learn how to ensamble it again lol
I just regreat that my parents never fed my curiosity to learn and the things I have tried in the past to learn I couldn't continue it (even university). For many years I felt sorry of myself and was stucked, until I learned that if I want an opportunity I need go out to catch it.

"Disassemble it first, then google how to assemble it back" is a very entertaining approach to things :D. But I have to say it's a good thing you like technology and not something like medicine.

btw, it seems I'll learn English with you, I can see how many mistakes I do :(

on 2017-11-29 06:16 pm (UTC)There was an alarmingly enthusiastic number of exclamation points in that phrase :D (well, I guess I should find it alarming; in practice, I have an structural weakness for the Try Weird Things And See What Happens approach to life).

I _suck_ at teaching anything (and I have six classes' worth of former CBC maths students as traumatized witnesses :) ), but it looks like you already crossed the most difficult threshold, which is to understand and make yourself understood about anything you want to; from now on you'll keep improving just as you read/write/talk/etc. That said, I'll be more than happy to help in whatever way I can, I do enjoy talking with you.

on 2017-11-29 11:26 pm (UTC)You seems an interesting person xD
Are you teacher for UBA? I did the CBC so many years ago, everybody was scared as fuck about maths, I loved it, I love numbers and this is why I was studying for accountant (I like psychology and advocacy too but I prefered deal with numbers than with humans looooool) I did 3 years of the career but I could not continue because I needed to work full time. Right now I'll prefer studying programming or business administration than accountant though.
I read your replies then I can see the mistakes I do writing, I'll try to remember they next time. There is another contact in my journal who learn Spanish so we help each other :D My talking is horrible... trust me! anyway american people can understand what I try to say. I am very ashame about my talking, I learned French at school (100% useless) and one of my exs who knew a little of English was always laughing and making fun of me every time I tried to say an English word (you will realize I just get shitty people on my way) That traumatized me for years until I decided to give myself a chance then I started to learn English using google translate and memorizing how people wrote in an online game that I used to play. Last year I took lessons but I quit because we were just 2 students so my teacher was always chatting with her boyfriend instead pay attention to us.
I do enjoy talking with you too, I don't usually get people who have interest in similar things than me and I am very bad to force a conversation with someone, I prefer be silent :D
no subject
on 2017-11-29 11:49 pm (UTC):D You too.
Are you teacher for UBA?
Not anymore. I was a teaching assistant for a few years when I first came to Buenos Aires (I'm from Corrientes), but that was a long time ago; I work as a data scientist, which is fun (lots of numbers :)).
That thing your ex did was really shitty. Everybody does things badly when beginning to learn something, that's why it's called learning :(. It's bad enough when we make ourselves feel ashamed about something — there's a lot of stuff about myself I'm not always comfortable with — but the people that are supposed to support us should darn well do that.
I am very bad to force a conversation with someone, I prefer be silent :D
Me too. I know I write a lot, but in face to face interaction unless/until I get comfortable with somebody I'm a very introverted person.

on 2017-11-30 12:18 am (UTC)Nah, you don't want my brain. If it worked well, I wouldn't find your instinct from impromptu surgery so endearing :).

on 2017-11-30 02:16 am (UTC)I mean, I know very little about you, but you're alive, functional, social, enthusiastic, ambitious, energetic, and from what you told me, you had to fight through a lot of things to remain so. That's not something everybody can do, and you did it.

on 2017-11-30 02:46 am (UTC)Yeah, I can relate to that.
I am not sure if I am social, well maybe I am social but selective.
Best way of being social, IMHO :). And I appreciate that you've selected me to chat with.
