Feeling Schoolish

June 30, 2006 · 3 Comments

Nearly a decade later i brought my kutti, sweet Tiffin-box to office packed with hand made Upuma.
I am feeling schoolish today and recollected all my school/college days :(
Things are really moving in a lighting direction…. and
Tiffin-Box is one of my early companion ( of-course most of the people ) in life..

Amma: Dei enga da un tiffin boxaa vayitcha… seeikarm parudu romba velai eruku
Me: Anga thaa amma eruku paru

Amma: Dei tiffin box yen wash panna la
Me: Ushoooooooooooo

Me: Amma !!! yenakku en tiffin box thaan vaynum… aval( my poor sweet sister ) tiffin box onnum vayna…
Sister: Blinks between two warriors… what will happen to her tiffin-box
Amma: dei un-tiffin boxsa mama eduthudu poi erukuar innai ava tiffin box eduthu tu po sari ya..

Me: enna saapadu innaiku.. theruimbavum curd rice/pickle aa..
Amma: in the summer ikku athu thaaan better….

Such a lively vessel brings zillions of colors to life..
It has taste,
aroma,
home nature,
sharing habit,
friendship, care,
love,Management, Planning,
affection, etc..
I know its a normal thing in day-to-day life..
but i am looking the entire Tiffin-Box journey for a day is a B-School admission i Njoy it and
its Onida now ( athu thaa inga “owners pride and neighbors envy” )

Interview – paraphernalia

June 20, 2006 · Leave a Comment

“Vaainkeviterkalla – s/w enggnieerai “ – That’s the motto for us this month & the sudden ramp-up plan registered back-to-back interview schedules to my calendar. It starts with:-
  • Interaction with Sweet-Cute hep/pep HRs -
  • Konjam “Jho”llu, – ( ada Jhothika illa pa )
    Konjam GroundNut – (athu thaan pa kaadai),
    Konjam velai Konjam :)

  • Talking to various candidates –
  • Hi I am XXX( Not triple X pa ? ), calling from XYZ company?
    How are doing? Is it a good time to talk to you?
    Tell me about yourself? Digest and estimate the candidate’s hard and soft skills?

  • Lunch with angelic HRs –
  • Hey what can we order for lunch? Chilling voice @ 12.00pm &…..
    Pizza with garlic bread!!!
    Briyani with Panner fryams!!!
    Roti, Paratas!!!

    Diversified language, pompous talks, lazy excuses, traffic cribbing’s, company expenses, teasing comments and waiting candidates. Some how not able to adjust to this culture 

  • Pray for the offered candidate to join…

Last year we had a walk-in drive program at Hyderabad and here u go…

We showcased our company profile PPT & started interviewing people?

After all interview questions one little candidate asked me –

Give XX.L per annum as my salary package?

Me: Hey that’s nice but considering all the aspects we can’t offer that much?
C’ate: U said you have a development center @ B’ore & you can’t offer me XX.Ls ?
Me:  I am sorry dude.
C’ate: You said you have offices at B’ore,Pune & Mumbai can’t offer me XX.Ls ?
Me: yes your right but we can’t ?
C’ate: You said you have a company at United States you can’t offer me XX.Ls ?
Me: Our company policy is not allowing to do so?
C’ate: you said you planned for XYZ billion next year you can’t offer XX.Ls
Me: What a nascent reply and passion to get in…
I couldn’t control my self towards these questions.. and put him to HR round.
Our Cute-sweet HRs mesmerized to get him on-board. ;)

Sin & software Professionals

June 7, 2006 · 3 Comments

Software Industry – one of the hep and hyped up profession right from
Roja(Movie)-ArvindSwamy days to till now.
Approximately 60% of countries talented people are working as code-coolies in this industry.. But the sad part is that pre-dominate(not all) species in s/w industry the most im-moral people……..

Of-course i am taking about Indian software space. here are some of the topped activities…

  • Producing fake bills for all flexi components
  • Producing fake medical bills
  • Above average number of traffic crimes- mainly for “no emission, no insurance” certificates
  • Very much work-around people in real-life rather than solving it.

some of the great things in the industry are

  • Help, Promote and take care of NGO organziations like CRY etc
  • Adopt and learn newer standards and technologies
  • Blog community spares around 40% of s/w people who takes,writes,sings, scribbles about various innovative thoughts…

Knownly i am also supporting such crimies indirectly :(
