Two years in Software Industry!!!!!!!!!!

I have already completed 2.11 years in the Software Industry. Days have gone really fast,,,,,,,,
"Santhosh" the name was announced in the list of selected candidates for WIPRO by the Wipro people who came to our campus[SV University,Tirupati] . I can easily say it was one of the happiest moment of my life,,,,,Even muni also got selected and it still increased my happiness,,,
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I didn't inform about this placement interviews in my home till then,,,,so we both immediately took our bags and went to bus-station to go to our homes and tell them the happy news directly,,,,,,I bought some sweets and took a bus to Kurnool.
My family was not expecting me and was little bit shocked to see me suddenly. They then asked me the reason for coming so suddenly,,,,,hearing the reason they also felt happy and appreciated me,,,,,There were lots of reasons for all of our happiness
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All this happened at the starting of our First Semister in Fourth year and almost THREE years back from now,,,,

We were not at all having any idea what these people were doing in the Software Industry in Bangalore and what we are going to do[I was expecting a lot of complex/interesting work than what I am doing now :-)],,,

Now I have learnt lots of things here both technical/non-technical in many aspects.

I have really enjoyed greatly the life in bangalore in these two years:
- Got some new habits ;-) and lost some habits(like reading technical books),,,
- put on some weight and lost some hair :-),,,,

Inside the wipro it went like this:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
took training for some 45 days and somehow cleared the mandatory test in the first attempt->went and joined the prjct in madiwala wipro office->was really enjoying my personal cubicle+nameplate+desktop+landline+mobile+coffe and the reall cool building of WIPRO->and finally started doing some work after 2 or 3 months->immediately went to client's(Sun Microsystems) place to work as our prjct is moved there->there again was enjoying unblocked superfast internet access->moved to some other part of our prjct as my module was closed by the client which i couldn't understand->after some one year was really getting lots of work/tensions/responsibilties->and after one and half years our whole team went back to wipro leaving me there for some work->Learnt really great things in those six months and learnt how to manage time/people/work->and now finally completed it successfully and waiting for a new prjct in wipro Electronic City office

Cool Stories!!!!

I was really feeling bored this afternoon and was looking for something interesting over the net,,,,,Finally my search for short stories has led me to this great website:
e-katha
[I should really thank google]

The stories are really cool/simple/great/touching/funny,,,,,,,,

If you have time,,,please go through them,,,,It will not take much time anyway,,,,,

Have a nice time,,,,

3frnz,,,,3Different ways,,,,StillCommon,,,,,

I saw three souls coming to earth on a pleasant morning. They all went to their destinations and took birth as Arjun, Chandra and Mani. All three soon became friends and studied in same school and college and finished their studies,,,,

As they have finished an important/joyful stage, they have started their next important stage each in their own way,,,,,

Arjun always had wishes like,,,earning lots and lots of money,,,establish an empire for him and so on,,,,,So he started working in that way,,,,He always thought about his career-improvements-planning,,,,,He never wasted the time,,,,he used to work 18X7,,,,and in very short period he was at a long distance from where he started,,,he already had some good amnt of money/job/business,,,but he was not happy that he had those but was happy as he was heading in the right direction towards his goal(??),,,,He never cared much about his family,,,,he just used take care of all their financial needs,,,but he never liked spending time with parents/wife/children,,,,Even after many years of hard work,,,he still work 18X7 towards his goal(??),,,And at very young age he owned lots of companies in almost all fields and was always appearing on the cover pages on many national-international business magazines,,,,,

Chandra never had any big dreams/aims/goals/,,,,He got a nice job with some handsome salary,,,,,He just used to spend all his money drinking/enjoying with girls/sports/all soughts of enjoyments(???),,,,He also never cared much abt his family,,,,,He just used to take care of their financial needs and was not maintaining gr8 relationship with parents/wife/children,,,,Years passed but he was just finding new ways of his enjoyments,,,,he was always traveling new places/tasting new food/girls/wine,,,,,,he was never thinking of the next day,,,,He never thought abt his country/people/family,,,,,

Mani had some simple dreams and had carefully planned to fulfill his dreams,,,,,He 2 got a nice job[3lucky guys :-)] and some nice salary,,,,,He spent half the money and saved the rest,,,,Soon he bought a nice house beside a lake,,,,The house was having a nice garden around it where he was growing some nice flowers/grass,,,,Even the house was very simple and nice,,,,He just used to work 8X5 and was enjoying rest of the time reading books/watching movies/writing/painting/listening music,,,,,,He had very nice relationships with family,,,He used to take care of his parents very nicely,,,,He was also enjoying his life with the wife/kids going to lots of picnics/always chatting with them/fulfilling their dreams,,,,,,,He was little artistic and even was fulfilling all his hunger in that area,,,,,

Finally on another pleasant morning I saw them coming back from earth,,,,,,,,,,

Now it may look like Arjun, Chandra and Mani had completely different kind of lifes and nothing in common,,,,and may be Mani's life was the greatest one and Arjun's life was the worst one,,,,,BUt But But------------

The one important thing that was common in their lifes is they lived all their lives in the way they want,,,,,,,,

Arjun's only dream was to establish a business empire and he did it and he never cared about any other ways of happiness(family or anything),,,,

Chandra always wanted to enjoy his life(his way of enjoyment) and he successfully did it in his way and he 2 never cared about any other things,,,,,

Even Mani fulfilled all his simple dreams and lived his life in his way(caring for his family,,,),,,,,

All three of them were happy when they died without any regrets/unfulfilled wishes,,,,

Whatever other might think after their deaths it doesn't matter to them,,,,,

Finally three lifes can be described in this single sentence:
"three souls came 2 earth->fulfilled their dreams->left the earth"

PS: I personally feel Mani's was the greatest life among those :-P,,,,

What I did past one week????

5-9-2007 to 12-9-2007

Definitely was in office for some good amount of time ;-).


How was the job?
Out of the 6 working days 2 days were really bad and full of work:
* Had to attend some serious meetings with the clients which didn't go that smooth,,,
* explain the client some of the limitations which he was not happy with :-(,,,
* was doing lots of work and sending lots of mails to them,,,,,

Rest of days went fine:
* was enjoying the work,,,,
* browsing all the regular web sites,,,
* orkuttingggg ;-),,,,,,


Other than job?
* Enjoyed two days with the cousins,,,,
* Did some shopping,,,,
* watched two movies,,,,
* bought a new MP3 player,,,,

Lakshyam
The movie was just fine,,,,Old wine in a new bottle,,,,but was having some nice moments to enjoy,,,,,heroine was gr8 ;-),,,,,,multi-starrer,,,,,and all regular things a telugu movie will have,,,,,

DIE HARD 4
This movie I really enjoyed,,,,I generally like action movies if they r made as I like them :-),,,What I like in the whole series and this movie:
* The action starts in the first 10 mins itself-there will be no boring introductions for half an hours,,
* The stunts will be really gr8 and believable [not in the exact sense],,,
* And the really really nice thing I like is McLean,,,,he is a perfect hero I would like,,,,body language,,,the way he talks in an arrogant way,,,the intelligence in the fights,,,,some things he does which surprise us [like in one scene a person holds him from back, McLean just presses the trigger of the gun in the other guy's pocket and the bullet hits him on his leg,,,It was really cool to watch],,,I just like everything in him,,,,,,
What I didn't like in the series/movie:
* Nothing,,,,I just like everything,,,,

I always used to think seeing many movies,,,why does hero not go and kill the villain until the climax even though they meet each other many times,,,,My question was solved in the DIE HARD series,,,,the moment you see the bad guy,KILL HIM,,,Even this was the important reason I liked the POKIRI movie,,,


And as said I bought a new Transcend 630 2GB MP3 player,,,First time did the shopping online at Ebay,,,It went really cool,,,ordered it,,,within two days got the MP3 player to my room,,,,,Just started enjoying the music,,,didn't use it for much time,,,so I can't say much,,, but I can say it has satisfied me in looks and quality of sound [Though I just enjoy music,,not like gr8 music fan],,,,Should wait and see how will I feel after some days of using it,,,,

As usual I think my post has again become a big one :-),,,I will definitely try to write at least some small posts in future[tough thing to do]

Watch the space for more updates :-P
Enjoy madi,,,

Mania!!!!!!!!!!

Raja was beating the other guys like anything,,,then he started singing and dancing,,,,Then came rani and she too started dancing with him,,,,,,I was really enjoying all of these[Actually I was enjoying a telugu movie in a theatre :-) ]. Then came the "Interval". Dad bought some nice stuff to eat and I greatly like these stuff ;-). Again the film has started. I was happily enjoying the movie and it was nearing the climax. Then this ScARy thing has flashed in mind and i was fully disturbed,,,,Ya it was SCHOOLL.
I was still studying in school at that time and it was sunday evening.
After enjoying the one and half day:
* playing cricket in front of the house,,
* diwandal in the evening (hide and seek),,
* business with the friends,,
* watching the TV for long hours in the night and finally going to bed only when mom scolds a lot and switches it off,,
* getting up on the SunDAy morning when it is about 2 become NOON ;-)
* watching all the special programs on TV,,
* going 2 a movie with parents and eagerly waiting for the interval ;-)
* ,,,,,,,,,,,,

The next day I should again get up early and start the hungama of getting ready to school and go to the school with a dull face,,,,,I really hate these Mondays as most of us [Even now :-(]
But once i enter the school it was again a world which I enjoyed a lot,,,

********************************************************************************

Even now after I came out of the student life and started the next stage,,I still didn't loose the Monday'mania. After enjoying the weekend -sometimes doing many things and sometimes doing nothing I really start feeling uncomfortable from Sunday evening :-( I really really hate these Mondays,,,,,

********************************************************************************

But there were four years in the middle where I never had this Monday'mania. Those were the golden engg. days,,,,
* Never thinking of the next day,,
* It was like the WEekenD was for SEvEn days a week ;-),,
* While going home from hostel I used 2 feel happy as I was going home and when I start from home to hostel I again was feeling happy as I was going to hostel/college,,

We always had time unlike now where I really find it hard to find time :-)

I will write a full blog about those golden days some other time,,,,

********************************************************************************

Just read this small joke,,,Enjoy madi:
Teacher : Isn't it amazing how chicks come out of the eggs?

Student : It's more amazing how they get in.

Didn't laugh,,,Plz blame the one who created that joke,,Not me,,I just copied it :-D

One BiNgO Panneer Tikka chips packet has cost me Rs 350/-,,,,

"BINGO Panneer tikka chips" Have been hearing about it in all the FM Channels from about one month. But couldn't try them as they were not available anywhere. Then suddenly saw them in the Bus Stand. Ummmmmmmmm they were really looking sexy and that little temptation has cost me Rs 350/- and some tension for 3 people for one whole night :-(,,,,,

Here are the details:-

Started from the office early in the evening as I was going to my native after long gap[15 days ;-)]. But this time it was a special occassion as I was going there for my parents marraige day,,,,,Bought a nice shirt to dad and then bought some stuff for the little angel[sister],,,The bus was waiting for me in the bus stand and happily got into it. Dropped the lugggage and started enjoying FM[Dus bahane karke legayi dil,,,,] After five minutes saw these BINGO chips[Ummmmmm,,] The driver and conductor were still waiting outside. So I went to buy the Bingo chips. Took the BinGo chip and came back happily *&!@#&#@?^????? the bus was missing:-((

Searched all over the bus stand and asked many people and finally got convinced that The bus missed me[Sorry, I missed the bus :-( ]. Then started the game.

In general my bag will just have a pair of clothes and shorts. But this time as I was going for my parents marraige day and also to attend a friend sister's marraige, my bag's value got increased[All the good clothes of me+New shirt for dad+some money]. So I thought I can't just leave the bag. Then the following sequence of events occurred :-
1) Immediately got into another bus to my native place thinking that I can catch the other bus at Chikballapur where all the buses stop for dinner.
2) Asked the conductor can we do anything about it. He 2 said we can easily catch it in chikballapur.
3) Then sat in an empty seat and again started listening FM. Then just called Muni mama to inform.
4) He laughed at me :-(,,,but gave a nice idea. I gave all my bus details to him.
5) He searched the net for our Dippo's number and got it[Surprising, I never thought APSRTC will keep such information on web] and called one of the officer and explained him the problem and asked him if we can get mobile number of the driver or conductor of other bus.
6) He said he is not having the details and gave number of the APSRTC Bangalore Traffic controller(BTC).
7) I called the BTC and explained my problem. She said she is not in office and gave some other number to contact.
8) The other number was not working. I again called her and she again gave the same number.
9) After trying for one more time lost the signal of my mobile :-)
10) Hey I got the signal back and I was in Chikballapur. I was hoping to see the bus.
11) The bus stopped at a regular restaurant and immediately got down and searched for the other bus. :-(( again missed it and found that it left 15 mins before,,,,
12) Now I called my dad and asked him to go Kurnool bus stand in the early morning and collect the bag if no one finds it attractive,,,,He scolded me and said he will do that.
13) Meanwhile the conductor of present bus gave me the number of Anantapur bus dippo and asked me to call them and inform them so that they will ask the bus conductor to keep the bag aside[again if no one finds it attractive],,,and i did that.
14) All this time I was still holding that BiNgo Panneer tikka chips in my hand. Thought of just throwing it, but finally started eating it :) as i dont want to waste any more money,,,
15) I kept alarm in mobile phone calulating the time at which bus will reach Anantapur.
16) After sometime started sleeping[shamelss guy :-)],,,,
17) Alarm woked me up and bus was entering anantapur by then,,,
18) Once the bus went to bus stand,,immediately got down and went to the enquiry and asked about the bag. He remembered my call and thought for some time and said there was no such bag in the GRAY bus. I said the bus was in GREEN colour. He said "ya ya GREEN colour bus". F*******k I just lost hope on the bag and called home again. My father said he will anyhow go to bus station and verify it again.
18) After sometime again started sleeping [When will I change,,,,,]
19) Just opened the eyes and saw that I was entering kurnool[Ha Gr8 place],,Took the mobile and called my father. GR8 NEWS MY bag was there in the BUS and my father got it.Hurrayyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!

I got down at bus station and went to my father. He was holding my RED bag[Heeee] ,,,,He said the conductor of that APSRTC bus had kept the bag aside once he noticed that I was missing in the bus,,,,

Finally went 2 home happily with dad carrying my BAG.

The root cause of all this is the BINGO packet which has cost me:
200 - for another bus fare
50 - for the phone calls
50 - for travelling charges of me and my dad
50 - for the conductor of the other bus as he returned the bag safely
Total of 350/- plus a lot of confusion and tension,,,,,,

I really want to thank the APSRTC and that conductor,,,,,[I never expected such thing from them].
This changed my opinion about them a little bit,,,,,,

Finally celebrated the wedding anniversary of the parents happily going to Alampoor and also enjoyed the Friend's sister marraige and really had a gr8 time with the engg. friends,,,
Happy Ending ;-)

Finally done it!!!!!!!!!!

Thinking of creating a blog from many many days and finally i've created one[Good effort santhosh :-)],, I will try to update it regularly as n when thoughts come to my mind ;-),,,,,,
