WOW!

I’ve been shortlisted for Petronas. But in order to proceed the next steps, they require me to complete the Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ) which will provide them more information about myself. The purpose of such assessment is to enable a better appreciation of my personality preferences for mainly selection and job matching purposes.

What I need to do is go to SHL website and complete this questionnaire. Actually the questionnaires were more to personality questionnaire and test of my abilities.

Please pray for the job interview I went on 26th October 2007.

It took some time for me to restore the missing blog posts, and unfortunately comments at least have been lost. I appreciated if you could repost your comments. I am sorry about that. Well this is my first time played with MySQL and myphpAdmin.

myphpAdmin were not exported images from the backup, I’ll fix them later.

What can I say, the painful lesson learn..
Backup your database regularly, and always before an upgrade.
Choose the right Web Host for your site

My existing web hosting provider sent an email on Wednesday, October 24, 2007 instructed their customers to do back up because they wanted to move Hong Kong server to other.

I did the back-up. The server was back online and thanks God, everything was OK.

On 2nd November, I realized that something wrong with the my blog and the server. I sent in a support ticket asking them to investigate my problem.

Later at 2:31 pm, they replied.

Alright, i just found something wrong here.
The dns of eddyra.net is not changed to our new server, i just changed the nameserver to our new server.
Please do wait until the dns resolve to new server, it should be not more than 3 - 5 hours.

I set my blog to maintenance mode so readers cant access it.

After 5-6 hours, you know what happended.. all 7 days posting are gone and my blog was rollback to 25th October 2007.

Today I sent another 2 ticket and asked what had happen to my blog. The ticket is now almost 6 hours with no response.

Anyone can answer any of these questions, please leave a comment:

1. Why doesn’t Tarzan have a beard?
2. Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a gun at him?
3. Why do doctors, when they ask you to strip, leave the room or close the cubicle curtain while you change? ………… they’re still going to see you naked anyway.
4. Why does a round pizza come in a square box?
5. Why do banks charge a fee on “insufficient funds” when they know there is not enough?
