Who is responsible ??

Had this heated discussion on bangaloresikhs yahoogroup as to who is at fault when Sikhs go ahead and cut their hair.

One member mentioned that it is girls because of them only, do guys trim their beard. Thats a big crap. The girl has not pointed a finger at the guy so that he gets his kesh cut. I have never come across such a girl. BTW, how many girls have I ever talked with? ;)

I am of the strong opinion that the fault lies equally with the child and with the parents. Thats becoz your first contact with social values is what you parents teach you. Even before you get admission into the DPS(es), Modern School(s) of the world you get an automatic admission into the school of your parents. This is where you learn what is good and what is bad.

Another member, (BTW why did she constantly point out that she is a girl??) said something about she being a silent member and then posting something. I replied back amongst opther points that :
**she is no longer a silent member with this post**
God knows what she read into and thought that I have said she is no-one. Gosh as usual girls have little brain and make use of it even less. Had to send across a strong reply. Never got a reply after that, BTW..

So the discussion still continues but I am of the opinion that it lies at the door of parents and the child when a child goes ahead and kills his/her kesh.

Thats all...

3 TV programmes.

Weekly shit kain alaawa khuch aur bhi hain for a change.

Saw this programme (again) on Nat Geo on something about Marriages in Sikh. It revolves around 3 characters. I m just writing about 1 character here..

1, Jassi (a girl) who listens to her heart and marries an auto wallah from Punjab. She was settled in Canada and saw this guy when she had come to India for a visit. Her parents dis-approve of her marriage and get her killed. Ugh!!! they were the parents.. The contract killers were told by the mom of the girl "Isnu maar deyo".. (Kill her).. 2 bad.. Just shows even though Sikhs have gone and settled in UK, Canada, US their brain is still stuck in the feudal era..

Another was a CNN Presents "Autism is a World". About this girl from US who has autism and how she overcomes it to try and lead a normal life. Programme talked about probably she was having a change of volunteers who help her communicate with other people and like others how she is afraid and nervous about changes. That simpply goes to show that autism affected are as normal as others. Given a chance they can do as well as if not better as us. Was a good programmer to watch..

Saw this movie on Zee smile yesterday "Katha". *ing Naseeruddin Shah and Farooq Shaikh. Matst movie. Naseer is a simple guy who always helps others without expecting any returns and Farooq is a chalu type who is always ready to take advantage of others. Finally Naseer gets to marry the girl of her dream played by Deepti Naval. Nice enjoyable stuff..

Got 1 week older

Boring life..

Nothing much spicy to report :(

A nice babe has joined office. She's married though :(

Hooray we finally also become a cooler pati. Bought one for 4k. It has an exhaust fan as the fan. so runs pretty fast...

Something funny happened with Manu. One night when he was sleeping, a mouse decided to borrow his chaddar and sneaked in. He got up startled and ran way to his room.

Cant stop laughing whenever I think of it. Poor fella... :-)

Sold a couple of shares. Got some nice profit.

@work
Cant say what kind of an opinion does Arun have of me.. Lets hope it improves.. Might just ask Anoop next week about my performance. Like to keep getting feedback after short intervals so that I can improve.

Might join Dr. Reddys Foundation once I have a vehicle. Saw the programme on Beyond Business and liked what they are doing. Their office probably in Hitec City.

Baaki sabh prabhu ki daya hain...

Yeh hafta kaisa beeta??

Another Friday has come through..

Gosh it seems life is running too fast. Feels like just yesterday when I was writing about last week. Chalo nyways about the week gone by:

We are now a fridge pati. Unfortunately the cooler still eludes us. Hopefully Manu Singh has some mercy and is ready to go shopping for a cooler. Boy last night was so hot, felt like taking out all the things from the fridge and placing myself into it. Baghwan Yaar Manu ko bolo that he should go and purchase the cooler..

The cheque from Wipro has come. Finally some money coming in for a change.

Sonu has decided to leave his job and take up another somewhere in Delhi. He is so experienced yet he does not apply for high level jobs saying his govt school background will act as a negative. Hopefully he gets some gyaan and gets a good job.

The market setiment has been good inspite of the UBS judgement. As usual I sell a stock and next day it rises 18%. :(

Work wise no major reports. Okkie for now.

2 of my batch-mates getting married. Deepak and Pandu. Pandu would surely get huge amount of dahej considering hes a s/w professional and in Delhi. Good luck dosto..

Talked to Rasti after a looong time..

Thats all dudes... Some shitty team celebration type in a few minutes. Starts early and finishes soon.

Chalo c u guys next week...

Another Week has passed by...

Friday late afternoon. Half the office is empty. No work to do toh socha blob yahan blog hi kar liya jaaey.

Soo, le me think kya huan iss haftey ??

Infact khuch bhi nahin.

Stock market has been gud especially the midcap segment. Soo, thats one gud thing to report.

Project going at tortoise's speed. Same opinion about Arun. Seems a bit weird. Thats the first impression. Lets c if it changes..

Financially on a sticky wicket. Wipro ney bhi abhi tak PF release nahin kiya.

Pulkit it seems has BP. Would undergo some tests this weekend to find out why she fainted in school.

Lets hope a new week brings happiness and joy. Another week gone by with more time @ Cafe Coffee Day. Life here is a lot more boring than in Bangloor.

Chalo.. bye for now.. this weekend need to get fridge and a cooler.

My World Last Week

Huh.. Lets think kya kya huan with me last week...............

Project has started albeit at a very gradual speed. Rite now could be called at a tortoise's speed. Lets c how it progresses. Kinna feel Arun is somewht weird, he doesn't seem 2 like my jokes. I just wish I am able 2 build a good rapport with him since I need tons of info from him..

Shiv is going to London next weekend. So my tries of getting a northie here fail :(

Batra's d-day is 2 b re-scheduled. Some dooba huan taara stuff. Taarey toh aasman mein hotey hain yeh dubtey kaisey hain fir ??

My pocket got picked. Lost 800/- at the time when I am going through a financial crunch. :(

Realized 1 day during Japji Saheb that I have not been doing Keertan Sohela since a long time. Previously in Bangloor I wd do Sohela @ Gurudwara but here in Hyderabad since I m not going to Gurudwara, I need to do it every night before going to sleep. Have started doing it...

Saw some news capsule about an old age home @ Delhi where people have simply dumped their old parents. Gosh!! felt very bad about it. Probably would volunteer for some old age home here in Hyderabad.

Spending 2 much timeof late at Cafe Coffee Day. Khuch nahin hota.....

Nothing spicy stuff. :( Chalo bye for now...

The Week that was..

1st time so little bit of more bak bak abt the hole (err.. whole) month.

Joined 3 com @ Hyderabad. Some recent developments on personal front also. Letz keep it a secret 4 now. :)

Back into telcom shit. Into same SIP stuff. Letz c for how long can these people withstand me.

Something very interesting happend on 2nd April. Again a secret :) Letz hope it goes on well. BTW me a novice in tht deptt so still learning the tips n tricks...

Put in some UMS stuff. Till now 2 ppl. Sampath n me. Not much knowledge here abt wht UMS is all about. Been a month n i m still blank. Wish my manager does not read this. Sampath seems 2 b intelligent, quiet fella, doesnt do 2 much bakwaas like me. Need to learn a lot from him.

Financial situation very bad. Almost broke. 2 many expenses coming up right now as well as in near future. May need 2 take my katora to couple of my friends.

Asked Anoop a couple of times directly as well as indirectly about project plans. He has indicated that we would need 2 go onsite. Lets hope this time I m not as much a spendthrift like I was when I went to Denver. That time 1 big attachi was full of gifts n presents for every chunnu, punnu, bimla, tony, pappu, et al.

Rasti has finally got a go-ahead 2 shift to Gurgaon. Gud for him. Njoy dost. A good natured fella who as I said is as duffar as me.

Bandar did not get through PGSM. Always hated this choice of his. But surprising that he did not get through. He is an ISB material. Would be getting married in Sep. or Oct this year. dost shaadi pey zaroor bulaana

Spent a lot of time this month @ Cafe Coffee Day. Near 2 office and gud timepass with gud crowd. :)

Hope 2 catch u guys later.

General Info abt wht has happened in my less than miserable life

Hey all..

Finally caught by the blog bug. Seems every chunnu, pappu, tony doing this so y not me?

Okkie. lets start from when i passed out of BIT..

Campus recruitment @ wipro but those guys delay our joining for more than a year. Worked at Trinity for more than a year. found 2 gud friends:

Lalit Manroy -> 2 shareef for this world. Helpful n honest.
Ravinder Bedi -> Reminds u of yokozuna from WWF days. Another helpful sole (err. soul)

Wipro wakes up and calls us wretched ppl one fine day in oct 2002. Stuck up with them for almost 2 years. Travelled Bangalore -> Pune -> Chennai -> Denver -> Pune
Yeah travelled a lot courtesy wipro. Found another set of gud friends:

Prashant Batra -> bandar. Honest atleast thatz how he acts. Kutta becoz of him I will also tell future in-laws no dowry. There goes my gaddi, ac, fridge, etc. Saaley bandar. Its all becoz of u that mujhey bhi shareef banna padega n mein bhi dahej nahin loonga.
Shiv Gill -> Moody but nice fella. Doesnt like if u make 2 much fun of him though.
Rast Zee -> As stupid as me. Thatz how our frequencies matched. We both dont leave a chance 2 make fun of others.
Amitabh Deepak -> Super intelli. Was nice getting help from him for 2 years. Honest fella.

Suddenly 1 fine day realised work @ wipro wasnt tht gud plus hated the pune centre. So left wipro 2 join peoplesoft. Finally into a product dev. company. Shucks Larry Ellison did not want me 2 b there for long so he bought over Peoplesoft n me back on the streets of Bangloor. Finally Mindteck had mercy on me n pulled me from the streets. Waited there for 3 months but did not like how the new project started after a looooong delay. So again back on t streets.

Got an offer from 3com and thtz where I m 2day @ Hyderabad. Lets c for how long. :)

enough of this buk buk from me. Would now try 2 b regular n crap something once a week abt my boring life. Sorry for any n all the intentional grammatical mishtakes.
