Publishing Training Again

Since Monday, I have to attend a new publishing system solutions training which my company just bought. It's tiring but at the same time knowledgeable to improve my understanding and knowledge in publishing system and industry. This week was about pagination system and the parameters set-up. Besides that, I also learnt about the back-end programming. This is very useful because in the future, when I want to enhance the pagination system, I will know the capability of the system. Isn't that nice?

Next week will be formatting HS and in-column ads. There will be a bit scripting involve but nothing I can't handle. My concern is my staff who is not familiar with scripting nor IT savvy. Furthermore, their background is only until high-school level. I'm not looking down on them and I believe there are a lot of millionairs strived their furtune with hardwork and brains. However, if ones is too lazy to use the brain and 'the-least-job-is-best' attitude, there's no hope. I hope they will realised someday that time has change and they will be at the loosing end if they don't want to move forward.

This 1.5 months will be filled with publishing systems training before the UAT. There will be a mock-close of our last year's book. I look forward to that.
