本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛我,Steven, 与你同龄,一个老程序员,生于文革岁月,毕业于动荡的六四。
人生就应是自我价值的体现,只有努力进取,才能将自身的潜能发挥得淋漓尽致。
虽说正当壮年,可你的字里行间却充满了愁怅与无奈,为什么会如此?因为你的努力与付出未得到足够与回报与社会的承认。
难道你就想如此平淡地虚渡终生吗?我想每个血性男儿都不该有这样的想法。
宝剑锋从磨砺出,梅花香从寒来,不经历风雨如何见彩虹,人生能有几回博?这样的机会千万别放弃!
先说一些大道理给你鼓鼓劲,再讲一些实际的:
1. 如果你要办,成功的可能性绝对大于95%,
如今不少人讲包装,弄了些假材料都成功了,以你的真实情况投档,正是加方所需的专业; 
 我现在还汉听说有申请程序员的人没有通过面试的先例。
2. 年龄大点找工作不会有问题的
 我的大学同学有六七个都是你这样的年龄过去的,现在都有工作;
你现在申请,过去后也不过比他们大俩岁而已。
 程序员这样的苦差事,外国人不爱做,也做不好,中国人在多伦多仅有10%多一点,程序员不更少得可怜吗?

另外,我看过加拿大的招聘网站,他们不像国内的企业要求年龄,这下你可放心了。只要你干得动,不要担心没活干。
我从不认为小年青的编程序会赶上我,你也要有这样的自信,我坚信你一定比我强。

 我元月投档,九月底ME, 在等LP。

赶快行动吧,真想早日在多伦多见到你。更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

  • 相约北美 / 移民留学 / 计算机硕士,今年已36岁,一直在大学教学,也搞过项目,老婆一直想移民加拿大,大家帮忙告诉我,如果我现在开始申请,等拿到签证都快40岁了,还有这个必要吗?到加拿大后,一切都得从头开始,精力能跟得上吗,人家还会请这么大年龄的programmer吗?

      • 很欣赏你的勇气,不过有个地方我不同意: "难道你就想如此平淡地虚渡终生吗". 按照他的条件, 去加拿大估计会是100%的平淡的虚渡终生,到退休时候,大概刚好把房子贷款还完. 在国内如果也肯定是100%虚渡,那倒不妨过来尝尝新鲜. 如果还有10%的可能不虚渡,那我觉得就不用过去了.
        • 我不同意这个看法,任何年龄都可能产生改变自己生活的愿望,努力去追求,并从中获得了满足,就不是平淡。年龄大,经验丰富,适应能力强呀

                          • No, I am not that lucky
                            • sorry it's addressed to Slimpiggy. Sorry about that.
                              • see me answering BG's Qs below
          • I guess I know a little about Canadian census at least 1991 and 1996 cause it's part of my research.
            1. Toronto CMA population is 4,263,757;

            2. there are variables in census such as Chinese as mother tougue , as home language, as the first official language... How do you get the Chinese speaking population...such a blurring term...

            3.I do have socioeconomic demographic data about you Canadian-born Chinese (not released to the public though). Don't get lost. You ARE counted and you are not mixed up with us.
            • Metro Toronto or GTA? CMA to me means Certified Management Accountant, See GlobeandMail, April 3, page A3, Title: Census announces that Metro Toronto has more Immigrants than Canadian-born
              I always refuse to answer any survey from the gov't, consipiracy theorist me is
              • The Toronto Census Metropolitan Area (CMA). I guess it's a common sence for a Canadian. The finer scales are Census Subdivision, Census Tract, Forward Sorted Area, and Enumeration Area. You quotation
                from the G&M has included all immigrant groups. I've seen this report.
                • Yeah? so you are saying that you agree with me eh? I guess me is no Canadian or me have no common sense then, since everyone knows exactly how the census is structured except me
                  • I have no idea what logic arrives "I'm agreeing with you"...moreover I used "I guess"...so you don't have to exclude yourself from the Canadian.
              • BTW, I personally think the ethnic identification of Canadian-born Chinese is a topic of great interest.
                • Hey that's a great topic I can share, firstfoall, forget about CBC, some Mainland-borned Chinamen don't know jack about chinese culture, it depends on the education and family background, come in, BG, and everyone else
                  Let me blow my own horn for a second, My family stress education and roots quite a bit, so I started reading classical chinamen poems and KungFuFiction in grade school, inevitably a JinYong fan, then, my dad forced me to read up stuff like "Three hundred poems from the Tang Dynasty" and crap like that, then, Scifis kick in. When I was taking up Canadian History in elementry school, there's really nothing much to learn about CA Hist, so I turned to Chinese History, I read many many books and Mao and Cultural Revolution, I don't think many people from my generation have read the "KAPITAL"
                  Until this day, my white friends are kept to a minimum, all chinamen whether they can speak chinamantalk or not. Thus, I say some CBCs don't know jack, and some do.

                  once again, my wirtings' full of untolerable mistakes, ar ar ar
                  • Thanks, Piggy. I have loads of questions for you...of course my writing is always problematic...but let’s get to the point....
                    本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛1. why are you using “chinamen” all the time? Is ‘–ese’ (like Chinese or Vietnamese) have a negative implication?

                    2. Disagree...when you use crap to describe “300 Tang poems”. It’s understandable that they may not make much sense to you as you are grown up in a Chinese Diaspora...however...most of them are the soul of Chinese classic literature...

                    3. Agree with you...the family, education etc matter a lot to formulate the ethnicity of a person...and you must have read a lot compared to other CBCs.

                    4. A simple question: do you identify yourself Chinese or Canadian?

                    5. In your case, I guess the affiliation or attachment to a Chinese culture was imposed first by your family...and now you may consider it part of you...and maybe something primordial (?)...If you could choose, do you still want to be what you are or just like some other CBCs who barely talk Chinese or even consider themselves no any affiliation with the Chinese culture...

                    6. What is that ‘jack’...you got my ignorance...

                    7. Do you feel the Canadian society (no matter how multicultural it claims) is seeing the second or third generations as Canadians?

                    • BG's questions are red hot
                      本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Most of the people in this forum have been in a Canada less than 10 years, these days, y'all wonna talk about civil rights and equal oppotunities, back in the days when I was growing up, racial discriminition is very real and very daily. Me and my friends believe that if you are angry about what people stereotype you, then you are essentially granting them the power to abuse you. If you can laugh about the names they call you, then you are taking this power away. For instance, if I get angry about people calling me Chubby Chinaman, then I am giving them the power to abuse me, but I laugh at it, it's funny, if others want stereotype, you give it to them, now the joke's on them.

                      me and my CBC friends call each other chinaman, we are unique and not proud but comfortable.

                      Doesn't matter if you are western educated, doesn't matter if you speak well, to the mainstream folks, we are always just chinaman, like a jap is a jap, doesn't matter if his family's been here for 100 years. Thus, it's not even a question, you can think of yourself as Canucks all you want, but we are all chinamen, simply the reality

                      Jack is from the phase "don't know jack shit", Just like the Game "You don't know Jack", meaning, doesn't know anything

                      Toronto and Vanny's been a dominately cantonese chinaman community for many many generations, it's only been 2 years at most since I first notice mandarin speaking people on the street.

                      Case in point, some cantonese dialect ends with the sound "ar" and "la", some sand people makes fun of it, so I started talking to them with ar at the end at every sentence, now I laugh about it....更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
                      • Thanks Piggy. I’m still new in this country...what interests me is not all those civil rights, racial issue and equal opportunity things. I know how physical traits work in this world and this is the actuality. I don’t even bother to
                        本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Thanks Piggy. I’m still new in this country but what interests me is not all those civil rights, racial issue and equal opportunity things. I know how physical traits work in this world and this is the actuality. I don’t even bother to argue with things related to ‘discrimination’. I think your way to ‘fight back’ is quite good. You’re keeping your ‘unique’ identity.

                        I’m reading something about ethnicity these days, and I want to find out how a second generation views himself in terms of culture and ethnicity, and what factors lead to the variances of the strength of ethnic identification of different person (I agree with you on the education and family impact...)

                        From you, I found how a second generation senses himself varies heavily from one person to another and from one situation to another. How do you think about some second generations who think them have little affiliation with China or HK or whatever? How do you view Chinese culture as opposed to the North American culture (don’t just give me ‘collectivelism vs. individualism’...:) ). What keeps you in this Mandarin-(or Mainland China culture)-dominated forum Rolia?

                        Yes Toronto and Vancouver have large Chinese communities and the mass immigration took place I guess since 1960s. You can also see the fast-growing Chinese ethnic economy in the two cities (of course the recent HK immigrants coming under the Business Immigration Program. contributed a lot ). I guess this ethnic economy provides an ethnically-confined environment to the maintaining of Chinese culture or whatever. One day I was wondering what if there was no Chinese grocery store, no Chinese real-estate agency...what would the second generation grow like to be...I saw English-speaking Chinese teenagers (I guess they’re of Chinese origins) hanging out in Chinese shopping malls in Toronto and I was asking myself dose this shopping mall (etc) provide them constraints or a protected niche or opportunities or whatever...

                        After 1997, immigrants from Mainland China has surpassed HK and has stayed on the top of sending country list ever since. And, around half of them reside in Toronto. This is what caught your notice on the streets I guess. Sometime I found the communication between a Mainland Chinese and a Taiwanese Chinese is easier to conduct because of the common dialect...I didn’t expect a person with HK origin in this forum.

                        Some cantonese dialect ends with the sound "ar" and "la"...and now you have picked up some mandarin dialects “aiya”...congratulations...更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

                          本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛It's a big city, different people are entitled to different opinions, most of the CBCs I know from highschool and university had trouble understanding HK is not the capital of chinaman, China is no different than africa to them, I think these people are limiting themselves to the Canadian environment, which torlerate chinaman id themselves as mainstream canadians. I have been working in the US for some time and I understand perfectly that appearance is still everything, skin colour determines who you are, people hate you for who you are, not what you do.

                          I am a very prejudiced person myself from my upbringing, my parents taught me to contain, life told me to hate.

                          None of my closest friends can write their original names, but none of them think it's a problem..

                          I like the mandarin language since it's more expressive than other dialects, and the humour is amazing,

                          I think human nature is very ugly, so don't test it, it's like a sack of dogdoodoo wrapped with white linen, if you put it under pressure, the stuff's gonna come out smelly

                            I don't completely agree with you on "the human nature is ugly...". 人之初,性本善...it's just people are shaped by the social surroundings...and the identity is absolutely a social construct. I'm interested in studying human...behaviour and thinking...and this is why I keep raising you questions...I guess I'll stop that.

                            I'm not very surprised at your experiences...being prejudeced...You are right, people are judged merely by their skin colour, complexion...and even among the same ethnic group, discrimination exists...Human beings are just so good at defining the otherness...we can not change anything. Bringingup in Canada must be very different from in China...You should be grateful to your family for giving you the capability to be exposed to two distinguished cultures...

                    I believe it must be very hard to learn Chinese and English at the same time. If your father did as you said, I really admire him.

                    Maybe you should talk more about your own experience, since your background is different than most of us. We don't have to be so aggressive and attack each other. Why not to be patient and listen to each other instead.

                    BTW, I read an article, "-ese" is a derogatory word root, while "-ian" is a commendatory word root. That's why some people call them Canadian and American. Maybe we can use Sino-man instead of Chinese. :)
