Ten years of code farming a

------Life between the world, if the baiju of the gap, all of a sudden.

Last week, the company's annual meeting, praised and rewarded a group of companies have been serving for 10 years of old employees. Annual annual meeting of the company has been in the company for more than 10 years of service to the old staff to praise and reward, often at this time, we all have regrets, time too fast.

Although the current company has not served for 10 years, but I have been full of ten years of writing code. Ten years, say long not long, say short not short, life can have several ten years? Memories of the past, a lot of situations are still vivid, many feelings, plugging in the chest, not spit unpleasant.

My university computer, the C language is very fascinated, still in school in C language to write a minesweeper game, so determined to graduate after graduation must find a job writing code. 06 graduation, with the father gave 3000 yuan, I mengmengdongdong came to Shanghai. With classmates, live in a small attic in Huaihai Road, buy newspapers, send paper mail to find work, because then I can not afford a laptop computer. After one months, I found a job of game development.

The company is a newly established small company, Sanxung people, do chess and leisure games. At the interview, the boss asked me what salary I expected, and I said 2500 bucks. Because the first time to find a job with no experience, before the interview, on-line consulting some of the predecessors, the predecessors gave advice are 2000 or 2500. The boss told me to give me 3000 bucks and an extra lunch allowance. So I didn't mention how happy I was, and I worked very hard after I got into the job. Now I want to, the boss at that time, really good for the boss. He knows how to mobilize the enthusiasm of his employees. If is the general boss, I expect 2500, he satisfies my request most, certainly will not add to me again. It is also possible that my request at that time was indeed lower, lower than the company's then minimum wage, so the boss gave me to add. Anyway, I was really happy at the time, and finally I can make my own money to spend.

Although the first company is just set up soon, but the inside of the boss and management is actually cattle, and later heard are from the big game company out of business, originally wanted to do a large online games, for some reason, this large network game finally did not succeed, so on the transition to do casual chess games and casual chess game platform.

University, I often go to the joint audience, QQ game play these chess game, what Dou landlord Ah, upgrade Ah, mahjong ah, bubble dragon Ah, and this company is basically do these small games, so at that time work is very happy. One can develop while playing the game. Secondly, just will play these games, but do not know how to develop the game, into the company, only to really understand how the casual game is developed, so at that time is more interested in this piece of content.

At that time, my boss is also a cow, he took me with special patience, I asked what questions he will be very patient to help me answer. I remember when I was at work, when the program crashed, I didn't know how to solve it. So I often ask him the question is, boss, my program again collapsed, you help me to see it. He always helps me look patiently and then teaches me how to solve it. At that time I small white and conceited, the old feel that their code is no problem, did not get the expected effect, it must be the computer where the problem. Just graduated from the side of the programmer, should also be like I did? So he often told me that the computer is not deceptive, the program is a problem, it must be your code has a problem. Now want to think, then the oneself, really is very vegetable food! So now I am very grateful to this boss, if not him, I write code may not be so fast.

In this company from 06 until 08, during which I did Chinese chess, Gobang, chess, Dou landlord, upgrade, mahjong, Bubble Dragon and other games. The size of the company also expanded from more than 30 people to more than 200 people. For more than two years, the number of programmers has been increasing, but I have only one female programmer. Now think about it, the boss has patience with me, is there a reason for this?

Two years later, I was not satisfied with only playing chess game, I think the chess game for me has no difficulty, so I very much want to do something else, something different. This is also the time when I think I might have to change my job, but I haven't made up my mind to leave. Just when the boss assigned me a job, I would put it directly, could you assign me some other work. At that time I was so self-righteous, too not to give the boss face. Later the boss really gave me a different job, let me alone with a team of three people to do a small leisure game project.

This is my first time in my career with a team, although I have only three people, but I was very excited, thought, finally when the leadership, finally can do something different orz. But the project time is very tight, I have insufficient experience, so every day to work late. It may be the cause of the stress, and there have been several clashes with the project manager. There are a number of reasons why the project failed to succeed in the end.

As we all know, 08, not only the snow, but also a serious financial crisis, my first company was also affected by the financial crisis, to lay off. During that time, people walk every day, who do not know who will go tomorrow, the whole company panic, I am no exception. After the failure of the independent project, the boss came to me to talk. Without guessing the conversation, he informed me that I had been laid off by the company. The boss said the decision, the sound a little choked. I know that he can do nothing.

If I do not choose to do a new project, if the project does not fail, I may not be cut for the time being, but the deal is irreversible. Although I am psychologically ready to be laid off, but when it is true to hear the news, the heart is still very sour, tears in the eyes of the straight spin. After all, this is my first company Ah, more than two years of time is not short, to my boss, there are several other colleagues who come in together, also have feelings.

Unfortunately, after leaving the company, I did not contact my boss, but from other colleagues to know that he later left the company, and his own business. With several other colleagues, now also have contact, every year also will take time to meet a noodles, eat a meal, they have become my acquaintance ten years of friends.

So, in the coldest December of 08, I was unemployed and started my second job.
