Rock-a-bye baby Prem

It's really a perfect time for treat. It's been a week since we had a treat. It is a loooooong gap for us. So when we were looking who is going to give the treat, I got a call from my cousin brother. It's good news. This top management guy who keeps on looking at the customer relationship has got a new relationship and he is promoted to Father. Now he has to learn to sing "Rock-a-bye baby" rather than making charts to his peers. Its time for him to change the baby's diapers than to change the projection charts for the day. A busy man commanding all the day at office is going to have sleepless nights listening to the crying of the baby. I am very happy to hear the news.

As delighted as I am, I sent the message along with my morning SMS forwards to all my friends. That's it. Before afternoon, I had an army invading my cubicle. The army consisted of Silpa, Veena, Ramesh and Gokul. That's a big army. I felt my base (pocket) trembling. As the army approached my cubicle, I understood their target. Treat. I tried to show a fight. But with the big army approaching, I was defenseless. First we had a small talk. I was not ready to surrender. I am not the person who should give treat today. It's my brother. I was trying to redirect the missiles to my brother. But the target couldn't be changed in those self guided missiles. Damn it. When I tried to put a fight, Gokul held me away from the system and Ramesh was writing a mail from my system. The mail was short and sweet. "Coffee Day treat today My Brother had a sweet baby boy…." The missile is sent and it hit the target. Mission complete. Happily they went to their base waiting for my surrender. And I did the same.

The treaty of new born baby party was formed by 5:00 PM and there was the treat in Amul. We enjoyed the party and we had a nice time as usual with me doing the honor of paying the bill. The funniest thing was we were shooting pictures with my new digital camera and I got the funniest cartoon faces that anyone may need (lighter side please). To add to the fun, Silpa took photos of me paying the bill. When we saw the photo, we were no where to be seen. There was only a girl in focus. And at last, after searching with a magnifying glass, we could see me and Ramesh at some corner in that photo. Great photography from Silpa. With all laughs and treat we left back to your cubicles thanking and wishing the new born baby who made everyone's day happier.

PS: I really wanted to give treat on this special occasion but I felt that I was not the right person as it was my brother who has to give the treat. That's why all this fuss. Welcome to this wonderful world by Nephew.

YOU TYPED A MESSAGE

Sitting idle is a tough work for me. It's near to impossible. I got bored as the onsite server was offline today. Didn't have any work to do except checking the manuals. It was like a person who is living in a desert and never had seen more than a bucket of water writing a thesis on Art of swimming. Completely idiotic. I lost interest in reading it in few hours. So I decided to test the messaging network in the office. And surprising I had company who is also bored. It's our new team member Sai Ranjan. If anyone of you get bored in your office and you have msn messenger, you can try this. Start with the formal introduction. "Hai" "What are you doing" "any update?" When he was typing the reply, you can find the notification that he is typing a message on the status bar. Immediately send him the message "You are typing a message". His reply will be "yes". Then you send the message "you typed a message". When he tries to reply back, Check the status bar and send "You are typing a message". And when he finishes typing, send "You typed a message". Continue this as long he keeps messaging you. He may shout and scream. Cry and become mad. But you must never loose your neutral stands. All you can send is "You are typing a message" and "You have typed a message". May be when he types two messages faster, you can send "You typed two messages". If he tries to ignore your messages, you send "You are not typing a message". If he still doesn't reply back, try mailing with the same message on the subject line. He is sure get steam from his ears. This should keep you busy for hours. Try it now and get rid of the boredom in your office.

The judgement day

After more than a month of training whch was more like those good old college days, we had the tough and troublesome days of college, the exams. The comprehensive exams were not similar to our college exams in which stories and drawings can fetch you more marks. This is very different that needed more of your knowledge than more of ink in your pen. The exams coupled with the project with me as the project leader made me busy with my mind running between project and exams. With the project teaching me how to manage your project team, the exams were teaching me how to sharpen your knowledge. We also had to learn how to work on probabilities while choosing the correct answer in one mark questions.
With all the preparations set, we had the exams on last thursday and friday. Everything went fine until we started discussing the answers. I was thinking that I got Visual Basic and Oracle practicals test correct. When the discussion started things started showing larger holes in the baloon that made my marks pour out faster and faster. The two marks written test was nothing more than our college exam with everyone finishing it in 10 mins and waiting for the time to leave the hall. The one mark test was fun with each of us applying the probabilities to find whether to attend the question or not. If there is a chance of atleast 50% in getting the answer to the question right, answer the question. Or else apply the probability of loosing the mark by attending it. The probabilities went on and on and I attended 48 out of 50 questions with the remaining two having only 20% probability of getting the mark.
With the tests over, we had to wait till monday evening to get the results. And the results are out. Everyone bit their nails(if they have) or even other's hands because of tension(as they claimed so). I was cool as usual ready to face any thing that may come up. The cool face suddenly froze when I saw the marks of 85 in the screen. My eyes blinked. I was not sure if I saw it right. But anyway its just two numbers and I cant be wrong reading it. I was wearing glasses too. And I am way above reading the numbers properly. It is 85. I got A grade. That was a happier moment.
Suddenly some reminders flashed into my mind as I have promised many for a treat if I get A grade. And to Vijayalakshmi, I have promised one treat for every mark I get above 70. I made this promise to get two treats from her as she got 72. Oops.. Now she is going to ask for 15 treats. Anyway, for friends treats are fun. I like it. For I am accustomed in getting it from others very often. Off we go for a treat now.
