I feel I should talk about my goals for this term. Considering I am returning I want to be given more responsibility; maybe even lead a project. I also think this term would be the perfect opportunity for me to work on my communication skills. I know everyone on the team and I’m comfortable here so there shouldn’t be any problems with me sharing concerns and ideas or asking questions. And as always I want to learn as much as possible about software development and specifically OOP. The TPS project was released to production shortly after I left last term and apparently it has been going well. The only somewhat major problem they had was an issue resulting from an assumption they made about our underlying data source; more specifically they thought one piece of information was unique and suitable for a primary key, when in fact this wasn’t the case. They have rectified the problem with a hot fix release while I was at school however their is some outstanding work remaining to fully assimilate the new column (an application generated key) into TPS. There was also some training sessions this week which I found sort of ironic since I’ve been with the team for about a 12 months total, but it’s good for the other new co-op Ranjith and it’s a good idea for future employees.
