At eight or nine o'clock last night, that is, about when I was writing an article tonight, I met a colleague a few years ago, when I left Tianjin for the first company I went to, I was with him, when I graduated from university and left Hubei after graduating from work, I worked for three and a half years, and he studied at the university in Shiyan, Hubei Province, worked there for a year and then returned to Shanxi, and then we worked together in a unit.
The young man is two or three years younger than me, and he prefers C++ when he was in college and when he was working in Hubei, but the unit we applied for was mainly developed in C#. In addition to being down-to-earth and willing to learn, the young man gave me the impression of being shy, and often discussed and even joked with other colleagues in our office, and he rarely interjected. After that, I left the company, he was there, I would occasionally go back to see them, chat or something, when we were chatting, he still rarely spoke, smiled shyly, heard that they changed the programming language again, used Flex, he also learned quickly, and has been the main force of the company since then.
Just yesterday, the young man took the initiative to chat with me on QQ, and I was surprised. He told me to resign, I began to think that it was because of the company's problems that caused him to leave, and then after chatting, I found out that he had a cervical spine problem, and now he resigned to recuperate at home, and the doctor told him that if he continued to work in programming, his condition would be more serious, and the best way was not to continue in his current industry.
Hearing this, I feel a little cruel, as a person who loves technology, although he didn't say it, but I also know that it would be a sad thing to give up the career I love! And, because I have been spending all my time and energy on programming for many years, what else can I do in a short time without doing programming work? He told me that there was a training school in Beijing that wanted him to be a Flex training instructor in the past, but his family didn't want him to run too far, so he was hesitant. In the end, I also forgot what I said, and then everyone went offline.
In fact, I have had such an experience myself, in 2003 I had a cervical spine problem, which was the first warning I got because it was discovered early, so it was cured relatively quickly. The doctor at the time suggested that I might as well stand up and twist my waist, stretch my arms, and shake my neck after working for two hours in a row, and I listened to this suggestion, and over the years I have maintained the habit of getting up for two or three hours to move a little, so since then my waist, neck, and shoulder cones have rarely been sore.
Last year, I once again experienced the consequences of not cherishing my body, my stomach often belched, sometimes for hours in a row, and the last examination was chronic erosive gastrosinusitis, which was related to uncomfortable mood and irregular diet. In fact, those who engage in IT often encounter overtime, which will lead to irregular diet, which will lead to gastrointestinal problems in the long run. In April and May 2009, it was time for me to treat stomach problems, and I used traditional Chinese medicine treatment. During these two months, I insisted on drinking traditional Chinese medicine every day, and acupuncture, cupping and scraping every two days, and those who had done this treatment may experience this pain, but I persisted for two months! At the end of the two months, my stomach was basically healed, and the doctor said that I could take care of myself in the future, pay attention to keeping a happy mood, eating and resting on time and exercising moderately.
There have been many precedents in the IT industry of hanging up in the process of overtime (as for whether it is due to long-term overtime or there is something wrong with the body itself), it may not have reached the point of death for the majority of IT personnel, but we should be vigilant enough. The harm caused by this kind of carelessness may not be reflected quickly, but just like drinking melamine mixed with milk and eating gutter oil fried vegetables, it will definitely cause harm in the long run.
To be honest, some external environments may not be much for us to change, such as the need to work overtime due to tight construction periods, not that we are unwilling to work overtime and not work overtime, but we can still do what we can to avoid it. Otherwise, when we were young, we worked hard to earn money to pay for our future health, so why bother, why bother?
Try to stay away from those companies with a strong overtime culture, indeed in some companies are regarded as cheap labor without a sense of resistance, this situation is obvious in some non-standard small companies, of course, some companies that enjoy large-scale also have this situation, there is something to work overtime, there is nothing to do and you have to find something for yourself to work overtime - this is the unspoken rule of some companies, so that in the end everyone almost does not do anything in the morning, and if you can't do it in the afternoon, you can work overtime in the evening.
Maintain a regular diet. Sometimes the company really has no way to work overtime, we can understand this, for example, once I encountered a special situation, the company did not take the initiative to ask for overtime, I asked the developer to work overtime, and then I applied to the company for funding, bought instant noodles and ham sausages, and asked everyone to put down their work and eat something in case of emergency, not on an empty stomach. Because our stomach and intestines have long formed a system that secretes fluids on time to help digestion, if we don't eat on time, those acidic liquids will cause damage to our stomach and intestines. If your company doesn't offer similar subsidies, you should pay for it out of your own pocket for your own health. Eat something when you get there, even if you are not full, something in your stomach can protect your stomach.
Keep exercising. Facing computers for a long time makes our lives relatively simple, so we try to exercise after get off work. If you have hobbies such as table tennis, badminton, basketball, etc., it is best (football is probably not realistic, you can never learn from the joke earthworm to cut yourself into 22 segments to play football), maybe you are not used to this kind of sport or have no companions or no sports field, it doesn't matter, you can run, even if you don't want to run, you can ride a bicycle or walk to exercise. If you can't even meet the above exercise conditions, it doesn't matter, you can also do some push-ups or sit-ups every day before getting up and before going to bed, which can also exercise your body. In addition, we do things every day, some people may have insomnia and can't sleep, because our hearts are tired and not tired, and people's bodies also have a certain sense of fatigue through exercise, so that it is easier to fall asleep.
Keep a good mood. When people eat grains, they will inevitably not get sick; Dealing with all kinds of people every day will inevitably lead to depression or depression, but we cannot let ourselves be in negative emotions for a long time, because long-term negative emotions reduce our body's immune function and make it easy to contract diseases. In addition, being in negative emotions for a long time is like a resting volcano, once the right conditions stimulate it, it will erupt, the incidents in Nanping, Fujian Province and Hepu, Guangxi a few days ago are examples of this (although they are not IT practitioners), and some ugly social phenomena cannot be solved by our anger. Bill. Gates said: "Society is full of injustice, you don't want to reform it, you can only adapt to it first." "What Premier Zhu Rongji has not done, it is naturally difficult for us to do personally. Therefore, we still try to ensure our good attitude, a good attitude can be brought by a good working and living environment, and it can also be done with a humorous heart. There is a saying in China: "If you are familiar with three hundred Tang poems, you will not be able to write poetry but will also recite." The same is true for humor, when you don't have a sense of humor, you might as well remember more jokes that Mud thinks are humorous. I was a very shy person in high school, I often read some humorous jokes in college, because I have a good memory and can remember most of them (about 1,000), I often tell the people around me, they are very happy to hear it, and I am in a good mood.
Let's talk about my personal approach in this regard. I now work in a company that doesn't work overtime, so I still have a lot of time after get off work every day, going to work at 7 a.m. and leaving at 4 p.m. every day. After dinner at 6 p.m., I would be active until 8 p.m. If it doesn't rain, run and take a walk in the nearby school playground, that is, run 5 laps and walk 5 laps (you can't rest immediately after running), and occasionally ride to the lake to watch the night view if you are depressed; If it rains, go to the nearby school gymnasium to play table tennis or badminton. After 8 p.m., you can schedule time to study to learn about new technical developments or summarize previous project experience. I might watch movies on weekend nights, but I never play online games, and occasionally read books on philosophy, Taoism, Buddhism, history, and politics, and I read less novels. So far, my physical condition is fine, and my stomach is completely healed.
Finally, I would like to end this article with a few little jokes, and I hope you will move your facial nerves after reading it.
A polite son-in-law
There is a young man who knows how to be polite, and because of this, some people marry their daughters to young men. After 7 days of marriage, according to local customs, the woman should go home, and the young man will go to her mother-in-law's house to pick her up in a few days. The husband and wife walked through a pass and kissed when they saw that no one was there, and the father-in-law who was kissing the young man rushed back to the market, and the young man was quite embarrassed when he saw it, in order to break the embarrassment, the young man said: "Dad, why don't you come too?" The old father-in-law was also very embarrassed, and quickly shook his head and said, "No, there is it at home, there is it at home." ”
