Entering the 2nd months age of TheGeom dot com, still many things to do with the blog. The same problems still exist, especially the dropping sidebars at the main (front) page. This is the real problem of this blog, and still do not know what made this and how to fix it.
Since i am not a programmer (actually i do not know anything at all about programming), i take an alternative to solve this 'dropping sidebars' problem, although for temporarily. The thing i do is finding the theme that will not break or drop down my sidebars at the main page. Fortunately, i found some themes to suit my need. The first theme is Anaconda and the second is this Redoable, and the third is The Zeke (sometimes it breaks), the fourth is Shadow Green (sometimes it breaks also), and more. Unconciously, i have trying many themes for this almost-two-months-old blog.

As usual, in celebrating Happy 'Ied Mubarak, I and my family do a long journey to visit families and relatives. We called this with 'mudik'. But, this year, the journey (mudik) is the longest and the most tiring one, at least for me.

From Jakarta to Pekalongan
If at the previous years, I drove from Kudus to Batang (Pekalongan), then Pekalongan to Surabaya; this year, i have to start my journey from Jakarta (my office). I started my journey from Jakarta by bus. The first stop was Batang (Pekalongan) where my parents-in-law live. I took Dewi Sri bus from Pulogadung, the inter-city terminal of Jakarta. Usually, it takes about 7 (seven) hours to go to Pekalongan from Jakarta by Bus. But unfortunately, it was a thursday, just two days before the 'Ied day, when the road was so busy. The cars, buses, and other vehicles are standing bumper to bumper for the heavy traffic jam. The traffic jam itself started as the bus get out from the Cikampek Toll road. The traffic jam is so heavily, when finally i arrived at Batang at 05.00 AM on the next day (Friday), while i got on the bus at 11.00 AM the thursday. So, it took about 17 hours, instead of the usual 7 hours trip.

As a government employee, there are risks I should take, willingly or not. The risks are related to my work. One of the risks I should take recently is moving to Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia.

It is not a secret that every government employee will face this ‘moving risks’. This risk is caused by different work assignment given. Unfortunately, this new assignment is usually at different place (town or city). A government employee could move to another city far away from his recent place to attend his new assignment. It means that he will separate from his family, since the family usually stay at the current place for some reasons. Most of the reasons are: the children schooling, home, family, etc.

The similar thing happens to me right now. After working and living at Kudus (Java Central Province of Indonesia) since 1997 (10 years), now i have to move to Jakarta for the new work assignment has arrived. From a small town (Kudus) to the biggest city of Indonesia (Jakarta is the capital city of Indonesia). From usual doer to tax Account Representative.

So as the new assignment, i am moving to Jakarta right now. For some reasons, i will be ‘alone’ at Jakarta, since my family will
stay in Kudus. The main reason in doing this is the children schooling.
It takes time to set up everything from the start again. I have to find place to stay (room or apartment), including setting up the internet connection. That’s why i didn’t update this blog for some times.

Above all, i thank to Allah swt for everything He gives to me. I am sure that there are good things (even better) for me at Jakarta. So many challenges there, including the new Account Representative assignment i got.

So please, wish me luck. Thank you.

Setelah SK Penempatan terbit hari Jumat tanggal 28 September 2007 kemarin, bisa dipastikan bahwa setiap pegawai yang namanya tercantum disana pasti sekarang sedang sibuk. Sibuk untuk menyiapkan segala sesuatunya untuk segera mulai bekerja di kantor yang baru.

 

Alhamdulillah, walau tersebar, rekan-rekan Geomatika6 ditempatkan di Pulau Jawa semua. Sebagian ada yang menjadi Account Representative di KPP Pratama (di Kanwil Jakarta), ada yang jadi Pelaksana di KPP Pratama, dan sebagian lagi Pelaksana di KPP Menjelang Pratama (alias KPPBB). Semuanya patut disyukuri. Beberapa analisis mengemuka -biasa. Namun bukan hal itu yang ingin saya posting kali ini. Bocoran saja, kalau mau tahu salah satu analisis saya adalah bahwa: di antara Geomatika6, sepertinya Mas Rosyadi bakal menerima uang pindah paling banyak lagi (setelah dulu waktu di Jogja)  !  guyon.
