The Contest of Top Scholars

"8. Lack of language skills, it is recommended to exercise more, and please report the working daily report orally before leaving get off work."

As soon as Xiao Jiang got back to his seat, before he had time to show chubby Wang Shiguang the demeanor of his proposal just now, the lower right corner of the screen showed that he had received an email from Xie United Airlines. Hole comes.

"Damn it! Tell me! How did I offend him? Do you want to torment me like this?" Xiao Jiang poked his finger on the words "oral report" and asked someone to reason with him.

"Eh? Didn't you offend the boss on the first day?" Xiaopang glanced at him, thinking it was nothing.

Wang Shiguang carefully looked at the content of the email, and quickly comforted him: "Don't get excited, the boss treats everyone like this, and treats you very well. The guidance is more careful than ours. Didn't he take you with the proposal just now? What does he mean... let you speak just now?"

"Ah, that's it. What I said is very good. It made them all stunned for a while, and Andy even praised me." Can't even utter a single word!

"So you said, why do I 'lack language skills'? I have to report to him orally every day, so why don't I read a section of the "Ksitigarbha Sutra" to him every day to save him?"

"I see that you are so hard-nosed behind your back, and you will be cowardly when facing the boss!" Xiao Pang likes to expose the stubborn Xiao Jiang.

"Get out! You are not cowardly? You go to report orally every day! Why should I go alone!?"

The other colleagues couldn't listen anymore, so they came over to persuade:

"Well, I think it's because of your stinky mouth that always offends people that the boss let you go, and let you correct the problem of stuffing your mouth full of gunpowder."

"That's right, the boss has only been here for a few days, why are you always rushing at others?"

"Sacrificing one of you will bring happiness to thousands of families, it's easy!"

"Everyone, go back and write the daily newspaper, and get off work early after you finish writing. Xiao Jiang, don't forget to go in and report when you finish writing, wow ha ha ha ha"

"Show your eloquence well, don't embarrass us science and engineering men!"

……

In fact, everyone is quite guilty. Poor eloquence is a common problem of most technical nerds.Sometimes I am very confident in my own technology or thinking, but I can't express it clearly in words so that others can understand and accept it.The text expression is okay, just list 123 directly, and it can save a lot of nonsense in the transition, as long as the black characters on the white background can be seen clearly, and no one cares how long it takes to write before sending it to others, but in person There is no way to express it.

Normally, when we chat with each other, we just open our mouths, but when it comes to serious matters, or in formal occasions, it is often difficult to express what we mean, whether it takes a few minutes or hours, technical geeks The logical ability is obviously more rigorous than that of ordinary people, but it just cannot be expressed in clear language.Some people have tried it, but they can't memorize the manuscript. When they are in front of people, they forget everything and stutter.It may be that I seldom communicate with outsiders at ordinary times, or it may be that my natural eloquence skills are not enough.

Fortunately, this time, Xiaojiang was the one who took the lead. Everyone comforted me and dispersed quickly, for fear of being caught and being sent an email of "verbal report on work".

The people in the office were almost gone one after another. Xiao Jiang's work daily had already been sent out, and he lingered at the door of Xie Lianhang's office for a long time, but he didn't go in.

Xiaopang was right, he was very righteous in private, why did he get scared in front of Xie Lianhang?

In fact, it’s not just Xie Lianhang who is like this. Most technical nerds are like this in front of others. They have inexplicable fear of language expression. Perhaps it is a psychological barrier caused by a long-term relatively closed working state. Ordinary engineers deal with digital and alphanumeric algorithms every day. Communication with customers and colleagues in other departments is done by the leader, so it gives people the impression of low emotional intelligence.

For this, Xiao Jiang was very unconvinced, so he went through his daily work report in his mind again, and after rehearsing, he could finish speaking in a few minutes.So he took a deep breath, rushed in, and before Xie Lianhang looked up, he finished speaking in one breath, blushing, and was about to turn around and leave, when he heard Xie Lianhang say in an emotionless voice:

"Sorry, I didn't understand your train of thought, please say it again." Xie Lianhang looked directly at Xiao Jiang, who was stiff all over, and locked his gaze.

"..." Xiao Jiang let out his suffocated breath, and couldn't lift it up in front of Xie Lianhang.

As a programmer, Xiaojiang is used to seeing all things as a whole composed of certain logic, just like a program.When the program is running, if there is a problem with a certain node or logic, the program will be paralyzed. ——This is the current situation. For the first time, he ran the program completely and smoothly without any problems, but for the second time, he added a new variable or entered a new operating environment, which is Xie Lianhang. The logic is broken, causing programmers to be anxious or even panic, and then get into trouble, the system prompts: it cannot run.

Xie Lianhang waited for a few minutes, and saw that Xiao Jiang was motionless as if a robot had crashed, so he had to skip this procedure and asked to execute another simpler one: "...today you just say the key words."

The robot Xiaojiang adjusted his stuck neck and jaw, forced himself to recall what he did today, and found some key words abruptly: "Uh...testing...debugging...meeting...suggestion...humanization... Reporting..." After finishing speaking, his face flushed, this way of reporting work should not be too shameful! ! !

Xie Lianhang nodded, and said: "Tomorrow's report will be supplemented based on key words. You can go back."

Fuck?This passed?I want to give up, can he understand?Xiao Jiang came out of the office with one hand and one foot, expressing his surprise at Xie Lianhang's understanding ability.

Maybe he didn't understand at all, just to see my embarrassment!besides!Did he pull the corner of his mouth at the end?How dare you laugh at me!

Xiaojiang complained to Wang Shiguang all the way and was still not relieved. When he got home, he immediately boarded the forum.

444L[xyz]: I'm basically sure that the new sea turtle is deliberately targeting Lao Tzu!Take me to a meeting, without saying anything in advance, let me speak in public to make a proposal, fortunately, I stayed up all night to write the proposal is not for nothing, finally sent an email saying that I "lack of language skills", let me I go to his office to report on work orally before work every day. I really owe him!You said, I go to his office every day to read a section of "Code Encyclopedia", can I get it done?

445L: Turtles vs wood turtles, ROUND1! FIGHT!

446L: I bought 10 yuan of turtles, and the soil turtle was obviously KO'd, so let me ask for comfort from the small universe, calling on the great god @好学

447L: Hahaha, it doesn't take a minute for Xiao Cosmos to type 100 characters with his hands, but it probably takes an hour to say it with his mouth seriously!

448L: Stupid mouth at critical moments, we all understand you, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

449L: Language...words...expression...ability...power...our eternal pain!goodbye!

450L: Damn, the embarrassment happened again, I don’t know how to do this question, hand in a blank paper

451L: Read "Code Encyclopedia", read "Guidelines for Rehabilitation of Cervical Spondylosis", I promise you will love it!

……

Xiao Jiang sighed, expressing your comfort, I don't want to watch it.

466L[study hard]Reply 444L[xyz]: You really need to revisit "Code Encyclopedia", especially the "Code Layout" part, you need to further study how to write concise and clean code, improve code quality and enhance readability, similar books Recommended: "The Way of Clean Code".The quality of programs and systems not only depends on the architecture and project management, but is more closely related to the code quality of grassroots engineers. Neatness makes excellent code, and the basis for later maintenance and upgrades is also here. This is your biggest weakness in personal technology .

467L: Great God! ! !

468L: The great master is coming to the water area again!The Great God has tuned and taught the small universe again!

469L: Oops, you haven't been here for a long time, my lord. Come out and pick up the guests soon!

470L[xyz]: ...

471L[study hard] Reply to 444L[xyz]: Language expression ability can be improved through deliberate exercise, and one cannot subconsciously refuse to exercise.[-]. It is recommended to start by expressing your main point of view, organize your thoughts, extract key words, and organize your language to briefly express key points. Opening your mouth is the first step to eliminate the fear of expression.[-]. Then gradually increase the expression of details, and reduce the requirement for clear and complete expressions at one time, because this high requirement of one-step completion is likely to cause anxiety. In the process of adding details, even if there are mistakes, there is no need to panic. Just like a program, there is no need to panic. Mistakes and bugs are normal, just correct them in time.Third, finally ask yourself to express accurately and rigorously.The lack of language skills does not represent a professional level, so there is no need to avoid this question or get into trouble because of it.But improving your language skills can make your professional level easier to be recognized and affirmed. It is recommended to have more face-to-face language communication with people and keep exercising.

472L: Great God's experience, I'm crying now, what's going on...

473L: Upstairs, hold me tight! ! !

474L: The master also experienced difficulty in speaking.

475L: What the great god said is so reasonable. I used to want to express it completely in one step. The more I asked for it, the more anxious I became, and the more anxious I became...you understand!

476L: Such a detailed training tutorial. I feel that it is good if I can do the first level. I will try it next time and try to reach the second level.

477L: Some people have to post back and forth to fulfill their wish after achieving this third-level achievement!I want to forward koi!

……

Xiao Jiang was also shocked when he saw the two paragraphs of words from the great god. He was enlightened by the two major weaknesses so bluntly pointed out by the great god. At the same time, he was also full of shame and decided to change his past mistakes. He will try again according to the great god's suggestion try.

Looking back and thinking about it, in fact, what the great god said was similar to what the turtle said, and the serious way of speaking was really similar, but why was one so convincing and the other so unbeatable.

482L: The master is simply the life mentor of the small universe. How could the master have answered this kind of question before? If this is not true love, I will uninstall it!

483L: If this is not true love, I will format my F drive!

484L: If this isn't true love, I'll switch to repairing computers!Give me the F disk upstairs, professional in-depth data recovery, otaku is worth having!

485L: If this is not true love, I will confess to the goddess!The good people upstairs have a safe life!

……

WTF!Xiao Jiang looked at the netizens who seemed to have been beaten up and started to crooked, their heads were about to explode. The window was open and the night wind was blowing, which was cool, but Xiao Jiang was sweating profusely, and his heartbeat was a little abnormal.He was afraid that the great god would stop coming after the netizens said these words, and he was also afraid that he would run the train with his mouth full of anger and run away in anger.

Run away, run away, the master doesn't match the painting style of the water area, so I feel guilty!

What is true love, how can a programmer deserve to have it.

The author has something to say: book

"Code Encyclopedia" - "CodeComplete"

"The way to clean code" - "CleanCode"

These two are the most influential classic books that every programmer should read.
