Tired...

I am extremely tired at this point of time. Everyday wake up to implement new feature and fix bug. My daily routine without lesson will be wake up, code, eat lunch, bathe, code, eat dinner, code, bathe and go to sleep. It is extremely tired. I am also traumatized by all the problems that are yet to be solved or solved, to the point where I had nightmare for some of those problems. Can anyone imagine one woke up in the middle of the night realizing some part of the code is buggy?

I also have hard time communicating with someone. As a comp science student (A sweeping statement here), I am very focused on objective and require a very specific and clear instruction to carry out my work. As such, those issues with very vague and unclear idea cracking my brain. There are like thousand and one ways to achieve certain goal and the decision is passed to me. If the solution is not the desired way, I need to change or even overhaul! Why can't you give me a clearer idea so that I do not have to worry out it!

First week into final project

We managed to get an external project through connection of an external pitcher. It is a travelling application where it applies UBER like idea. It is called Travez which is an application who serve travelers by helping them with their decision making and itineraries planning. The key point is to tap on local people who know a lot about attractions in their countries and get those people to serve the travelers through application.

This idea gave me a very strong impression that nowadays, more and more people have started to think of idea that make use of other to work for them. It may leads to good and bad depending on how the direction goes.

For good, more people can pick up part time job and  earn through such simple job. It provides more jobs to those who face problem such as disabilities and incapable of leaving house. It also allow student to pick up easy part time job for their pocket money.

Here comes the bad thing. First, who is going to be responsible for such jobs, the company or the person? If something goes wrong, will the company bears full responsibility? Well, the company should bear most of the responsibility. Take Uber for example, if the vehicle gets into accident (*touch wood*), will be company compensate the driver and the client? I believe Uber should have some sort of insurance to cover those accidents but how about other similar out sourced businesses?

Next, how to pay income tax? Is the company going to submit income tax for those outsourced by the company? How about the quality of the company? Is the company going to control the quality through a very strict selection?

There are quite a number of problems before you can out source a business and get other to work for you and you wait for money to come in. I do not disagree with such method. It is innovative and interesting  business model but there are more admin issue to tackle before this method works.
