The end of the year 2008 is fast approaching so it is time for me to comment on what happened, good or bad, this last year. <\/p>\n
First of all, I participated in a wonderful Oracle migration project which took most of the year to complete. I have been doing quite some programing with Java, Oracle forms and PL\/SQL. In addition, I had to fix a number of issues with our application. This blog has been updated quite regularly with the issues and solutions I have put in place. I hope to continue doing that in the coming year.<\/p>\n
Quite notably, I was able to design MouliForms and a number of javabeans. It has been an interesting journey and the best part is the team I worked with. They have been very helpful, competent and nice to work with.<\/p>\n
The year 2008 started very well as far as I am concerned. I was teaching Oracle Forms and Designer to two groups of extremely talented students. I had fun teaching evenings even though I was also working full time during the day too.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, 2008 ended on a sorry note, at least for now :). Right after getting an excellent evaluation from my students, I was let go as a lecturer.<\/p>\n
While I thought this was just a passing annoyance, my contract in my current work got cancelled on christmas eve right before the holidays.<\/p>\n
Well, when things start to go wrong, you can’t help it but pause, reflect and then move on. What can you do? <\/p>\n
I know things will improve. After the rain, there is always sunshine.<\/p>\n
Finally I would like to wish everyone a healthy, joyful and very productive 2009. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
