Programming again

In the course of my work, due to a lack of programming resources here in Singapore, I had to do some programming myself. There was a request from one of the management staff to come up with something in VBA for use in conjunction with MS Access. Although I did manage to come up with the small application, neither the effort nor the application was fully appreciated.

Thank goodness I have programming in my blood and I still enjoy the small programming exercise…

$33.33 per second

The closest I came to bagging a gold award for IPPT was when I was a cadet. Somehow that morning I felt ultra-competitive and when my instructor challenged me to go for the gold, I felt up to it.

Too bad I failed to beat the mark in the end, coming in 3 seconds too slow. As the difference in the monetary awards was $100, it meant that each second cost me $33.33!
