From the day I wrote the program, I didn't plan to write the program-programmer's 30-Year-Old Problem

Collation

About the year before, a colleague at the bus stop asked me, "Hi, how many years have you been developing ?"

"About year 56 ." When I say these things, I feel a little ashamed. I am so old that I am always busy.

"No wonder you have a wealth of experience ." The obvious compliments from colleagues make people uncomfortable. Then, I asked, "Are you planning to work for another year ?"

I understand what he means.Program"30The question of the age is related to the problem. Let him focus on the problem. In fact, he is still young, 25-year-old and six-year-old. At that time, I was about to rush to thirty.

I smiled and could even say that I was not planning to write a program from the day I wrote the program ."

He was surprised and puzzled. I didn't explain it because the bus came.

It Person 30 Questions about age

 I believe that many friends in the same industry will have such anxiety and I have had it.

"30I believe everyone understands the key points of the age question. First, I am exhausted because I am not willing to work overtime. Second, I am a technical problem, there are too many new technologies. I only know a lot about them, and I don't have time and energy to study them. 3. Family problems. I can't say it's a drag-and-drop problem. It's a natural feeling to enjoy the balance of heaven, I prefer watching TV with my daughter or watching a computer again.

Some people also pointed out that the programmer's30There are only a few old outlets, one is to switch to pre-sales or after-sales; the other is to switchItTraining; third, turningItMarketing; fourth, go up as a project manager. There may be others, but it seems that no one encourages programmers to start a company to run an enterprise.

It is not easy to find a way out, but they have a common obstacle: "You must have good communication skills", which is what programmers lack.

My first career plan

Programmers like to tell their own stories. I also want to talk about it. It's not just a reference case, it's not just a show off, it's not a resilience.

I graduated from a secondary school. Later I joined a junior college in adult education. When I came out to look for a job, my first job was a computer-selling company with more than a dozen people. A technical backbone in the company complained all day that it was not good. In the past, no matter what the problem was, it was50Yuan. Now it is a free service.

There is no technical knowledge for computer repair, and it is not for board-level maintenance. We just want to change or reinstall a system if it breaks down. Soon, I am also the technical backbone.

The customer commented well on me, one of the reasons is that I don't like to talk, you just scold me, I just smile, and then I fix the computer, but the customer is embarrassed.

Three months later, I decided to resign because: "I don't want to carry a pack to repair my computer all day. I am still young. It doesn't matter, ride a broken bicycle and run to repair the computer." I want to go to a software company, even though I have heard that"30", But writing a program is at least a little longer than a computer job. It can help me do it.30At that time, I thought,30The age is still far away.

My second career plan

I am not as willing to enter a software company. On the contrary, I work as a temporary employee in some computer training courses for my livelihood.

I learned about computer training coursesOfficeI also learned how to create web pages in office software.FlashMaybe everyone will say, "when I first went to training, didn't you do anything ?". I admit that I taught while learning, and fooled some people. Haha.

After a short period of time in an Internet company, I successfully went to a software company.

I don't dare to relax my study, because the reality shows that in the circle of technicians, the technical level not only determines your salary level, but also your prestige in the team. What's more, it's interesting to write a program. I love it. It gives me the passion to work and brings me a sense of accomplishment.

Since then, I have told myself that I will not keep writing. I need a longer-term plan.

At that time, I was about 23 or 4 years old. After work, I downloaded a lot of Management lectures and listened to them whenever I had time. Although I didn't understand much, those lecturers were angry with me, I believe that one day, I can also speak on the podium.

It turns out that these lectures helped me a lot in the future.

My third career plan

28When I was young, I went to Shenzhen. In order to make more money, he had to pay back the mortgage earlier.

Shenzhen is a lonely city. Being lonely is the hardest thing to do. Fortunately, I live in a nearby library. It is good to have money. The Library in Shenzhen is very beautiful and has many books. Every day after work, I spent some time in it. I read many books, technical, humanistic, and historical books.

Last year, I was very touched by the movie Mei Lanfang, especially Qiu Rubai and Meng Xiaodong. "Who destroyed Mei Lanfang's loneliness !". My tears swept down.

In Shenzhen over the past few years, especially in the first year, it has greatly improved me, not technically, but in mind.

I once said to my team members, "I live30I thought my life was just getting started ." Maybe they are hard to understand. I just want to tell them,30It's just the beginning.

When I decided to change my job, I had only one sentence on my resume: "I have many years of development experience and pay attention to Team building ."

Of the applicantHRAsk me, "What qualities do you think a programmer should possess ?"

"Chat !" I said with a smile. Looking at the other side, I smiled and explained: "What programmers lack most is communication skills. Chatting can shorten the emotional distance of team members. He didn't want to communicate or dare not, through daily chat, he is no longer afraid of communication. Even if his communication skills are not good, the other party can tolerate inappropriate comments because of their good feelings."

In the end, it is difficult for me to enter these big companies because of my low degree of education, especially my low level of English. Always in medium and smallItThe company takes office. In addition, we can't resist the Miss of our wives and children. I decided to return to the mainland.

Take a step back from the sky, without too much work pressure, you can have time to learn.

My postgraduate entrance exam will be my plan for the next two to three years.

To younger friends than me

I am a small and medium-sized enterprise in the MainlandItThe company serves as a department manager, and its employees are all undergraduates. Of course, they are recruited by people rather than adult education.

This does not affect my management. I don't need to show off my technology and experience. I just often tell stories and chat to everyone. My knowledge is beyond their imagination and someone may even ask me with suspicion, "Is it a technology? ". Only at this time will I talk to him about technology and provide guidance.

I grant permissions to the project manager. I only supervise and monitor the assignment.

I put on a suit and "Impersonate" an expert. I sat on stage and talked about it with a smile, facing up to those real experts and making them believe that I am right.

The marketing department staff occasionally ran to me and said, "Today I have a customer. I happen to be going out today. Please help me to have dinner with him, I will reimburse all expenses."

Haha. I know exactly why they asked me to accompany customers, not other technical department managers. Probably, I don't think I'm a technical engineer. I think it will blow water.

 

As I know, many technical personnel refer to this. For them, technology is life and a manifestation of their own values. Blow water is the most despised.

I just want to say that when you are learning technology, when you feel confused and painful, you can read a novel, magazine, or whatever book you like, do not just drill in the technical circle.

Chat with people, especiallyItFriends outside the circle. I don't know what to talk about, because my knowledge is too narrow. The solution is to read more books and read more reports. For a quick solution, invite people to drink and enjoy the wine.

 

No matter whether I think my practice is correct or not, I just hope to give you some help from my personal experience. Even the opposite textbook.

Appendix

When a female netizen met me, he said, "You are really not handsome. You can't find anything in the crowd, but when you speak, it attracts me ."

Haha. Learn to chat and smile for whatever purpose.
