Stop Your Career Anxiety

If you’re unhappy in your job, you are not alone. Plenty of people—many with stable, high-paying, interesting jobs—feel lost in their careers. If you experience this anxiety, try these three things:

Forget money.
Money matters but not at the cost of doing something you love. If you are unhappy in a job, a six-figure salary won’t change that.

Try new things.
Challenge yourself. Ask your boss for a chance to lead a new business. Speak at an industry conference. Take on a special project in another part of the company.

Get to know yourself.
Spend time thinking about your passions. Don’t settle on the first thing; consider many options.

 

BTCL, Teletalk investigated over illegal VoIP

A committee of the Bangladesh government has found anomalies in international call management at two state-owned telecommunications firms. Bangladesh Telecommunications Company (BTCL) and Teletalk were investigated to find their involvement in illegal VoIP services. The report said that BTCL did not have analysers installed to collect call data, which leaves room for revenue dodging and other irregularities, The Daily Star writes. BTCL has no billing platform for its interconnection exchange and cannot measure the actual call duration of calls, nor are they properly connected to the analyser of the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission. BTCL has three exchanges for international call termination but one of its exchanges often reboots, resulting in traffic data loss. The company has no maintenance agreement with its vendors so when it faces technical problems it cannot solve them, the report reads. At mobile operator Teletalk, the committee found evidence of abnormally long calls of 17 to 23 hours from five numbers. Some incoming international calls also raised questions. The committee also accused the companies of not properly cooperating with the investigation and said some data from the exchanges had been deleted. The committee made 13 recommendations to improve the situation.
