One of my favorite scene in my most favorite movie.


Its almost 3 months since i quit Motorola. This is a post about the happenings in my new company ala what ramak posts as "I didnt say this"

To start of, it took me just 1 week to start playing TT here. It took little lesser days than that for one of my colleague to say to another colleague,
KK: don't give backhand to Arun ra, he always hits.
Me: (To myself) you moron, are you sure??
Sadly, by the end of same week, the same guy said "your backhand shot is too weak man". hmm. as vadivel says in majaa, "epdithaa takkunu kandupidikkaraangalo!!!"

Yet another bulb. This time, it was from my onsite cordinator. I was chatting with him in skype
Me: You are OOO for next 4 days right, will you check mails in your vacation?
Him: No, i wont.
Me: Doesnt matter, i will still mail you if i am terribly struck somewhere.
Him: hmmm, ok.
Me: ok, that was suppose to be a joke. I have bad sense of humor.
Him: oh, ok. now i got it.

The director of my ops called me for 1 on 1 meeting. In the middle of the conversation...
He: Work wise what is the difference you see between your previous employer and here.
Me: I had always worked in maintenance projects before coming here. At some stage it was more of a headache to see and understand others code and fix their bugs. Here i am writing my own code and iam happy about that.
He: (blank)
Me: Now, i have the luxury of putting my own bugs so that people will scratch their heads later. ha ha ha..
He: ha ha(Thank God he laughed)

The most important thing here is that there are only 2 girls in the whole company. So, you wont be surprised by the kind of words the guys choose here. Some samples.
1. If he can do it, y cant u. Is he born with iron balls or what???
2. Come bitch, we are getting late for the team meeting.
3. How long are u planning to rub the balls of that feature. Make sure it doesn't become pregnant. atha mudichitu adutha feature start pannu da. (My manager to me).
4. Do you dare, if you have balls, win me.

Exactly... If Federer is an Indian. Most of the sports column in Indian newspaper on Monday would have carried titles similar to

  • Federer should Retire.
  • Federer has past his prime. He should play in domestic tournaments.
  • Federer is on the wrong side of 20. He should work on his fitness.
  • Federer should quit Tennis. He can make a good career in Bollywood.
  • Nadal vitta savaal. Federer mugathil terror.
In my humble opinion, Indian media always works in the extreme. Either they praise someone to sky level or thrash them like anything. I still cannot forget the article which claimed Raina as the next Tendulkar just after Raina made a match winning fifty. He wasn't even 20 matches old then. There is a long list like this. let me stop here.
