What's up ? Nothing much.

What's up ? Nothing much. 

1. It was a fairly rainy day in summer. The heat can consumed by the cold splashing droplets. I enjoy rain, as I always do. And if I didn't had any work, like go to a office or something like that, I wouldn't mind getting a little wet. And mind it, in that process of getting a little wet, I get fully drenched in the cold water. And I wouldn't take cover. I wouldn't run. I would let myself get the full of the rain. Now imagine this. A guy walking in the heavy rain slowly and carefully covering himself with a umbrella. But here the guy is me minus the umbrella. I would walk as if the rain wasn't falling at all. Yeah, I turn a few head who definitely think what an idiot I am. But I don't really give a damn about them. So, if you see some guy walking in a rain as if it is one sunny morning (minus the umbrella) , that would be me.

2. I have always liked the sling bag. But I couldn't get the one I liked for a very long time.  May be I didn't search for it much. And when I finally found one, I had no second thoughts. Before I got hold of it, I had a similar thing when I got the laptop. But that wasn't the same. This one was not as appealing as I wanted my bag to be. But still, I used it to carry my laptop here and there. So, one of my cousin who is no older than 4 years spots me with it all the time. So, whenever he sees someone with a sling bag, he would call my name. Well, anyway I still use it. And I take it to office these days, I mean since I started going to office. What I observed is that no one uses a bag like this. Oh well there are these laptop bags which look like mine but plus the laptop. So, I was thinking whether it is very odd or it is just fine. Yeah, I know. No one usually cares, but still. 

3. The office computers are dead slow. Believe me when I say dead slow, you can literally take it as dead. So, what they did was upgrade the systems from 1GB RAM to 4GB RAM.Yeah, that's cool. But the thing is that we use a client remote desktop which is literally on the other side of the world. And that connection my friend, is the dead slow part. Now, these people have deadlines to meet as does anyone.  So, when they upgraded the system, they were hoping to increase the productivity of the same. But even if anyone of us get a super-computer, the productivity can't be increased unless someone does something about the connection to the remote computer on the other side of the world. A concern is raised on the same over and over again, but you might have figured that if I am writing this, then a lot of progress is really going on about it indeed. 

4. So, I was saying in the previous posts about the deadlines, right? About that, the time is critical now. But there is a lot of inconsistency in the work that we do which is another story. Anyways, to facilitate the meeting of deadline they added a few more people doubling the already existing staff working on the same thing. First of all, I don't have a clue of what I do. Well, I know a few things, the basics that to be fairly and nothing more that. The new guys are told to sit with me and observe what I do and in the process teach them. Kill me for the questions they ask. I have never asked that many questions in my life. Now to the answering part of those questions - I don't know half, or should I say most of the questions. But what I know is that they don't know that. Lucky for me, I build up my own answers and explain them as if I also know the application backward. And what they feel is that I know almost everything. And that's what bothers me when they find out that I was staling them with concepts unknown all the way along.

5. I have been spending a lot of money on food lately. This doesn't sound strange to you? Oh! Well, the thing is that I would skip off a meal in the nights occasionally. And these days, I am failing to do that. I really don't know why! And is the food that I eat is healthy, you ask? Oh, you aren't asking? Am I asking myself? May be. So...
