This one hits and hard!

They say nostalgia hits. This one does and hard. Roughly an year ago, fresh into SIBM, Pune - we were all gearing up to be special. Literally! Being a member of the Students' Council at SIBM is what I so looked forward to. I got to be a part of the rocking IT Team for Interim and Junior tenures. Needless to say, it was one of the best time I have ever had. With sine curved pattern of work and fun, it couldn't have been better...or may be it could have been. The Juniors have come, taking their shares of responsibilities and teams have been formed. Alas, I am not in council anymore and how I miss it!

I can only imagine how it would have been to be on the other side of the interview table this time, how when finally the teams would have formed - the introductions and 'insider' sessions would have begun. The tales of legends who have passed through the same responsibilities. I sorely miss it. Wish I could make juniors do things which Abeer, Anu and Sheth made me do during the interview..[Can never forget the 'Mickey Mouse is 'old' cartoon promotion!] All I can say in words for now is this:

For my Senior IT Team [Sid, Sheth, Chitre, Abeer, Anu, Shetty, Vineet] - You guys rocked! Love you all!
For current Senior IT Team - You guys are awesome! Make the Juniors sweat ;)
For Interim IT Team - It is your time to have the best time of your life. Good Luck!

    What I would give to swap places with you in SIBM... the only, I repeat ONLY advantage here is the bank balance :)
    And that I'm afraid I cannot swap...

Were you sleeping?

How irritating is it to get a phone call when you are in that last hour of your sleep on a Saturday morning? Worse, if it turns out to be your mobile service provider wanting to confirm if you would want to upgrade your 3G plan (which in any case sucks with most providers in India!) Even worse, what if it turns out to be someone important, like your boss? Now you don't want to sound totally sleepy - do you? What would he/she be thinking of you if he were to ask, "Were you sleeping?" at 11 am in the morning? (And, this is judgmental attitude is especially true of older white haired balding bosses!) Well, here are a few tips to sound all alert & morning crispy when actually you would have killed him for ruining your sleep on a Saturday morning. They have worked well for me, hope they would for you too! - Take a deep breath, let the phone ring for a few seconds so that you get a chance to clear your head (hope you did not have much alcohol last night).

Saraswati to Laxmi!

 Image Courtesy: http://www.thehindu.com/ Now that MBA is over and I am considered an ounce wiser, being back home means work. There are so many pending things that are just waiting in the attic to be dusted and made to work again. One of them is the mammoth task of physical share transfer and dematerialization. Though stated in one pretty sentence, it takes months of effort and work. And of course, money!  My brother has been painfully going about the motions of this work for a couple of months now and nothing much yet seems to have resulted out of it. We struck a good deal with a certain Saraswati something shares. I asked, "How much would this one fetch us?". He replied, "Enough to recover the money you spent on your MBA degree". I exclaimed, "Really! Waoh! Even after they have been dormant for like 15 years??!". He quipped, in exasperation, "Weren't they supposed to teach you all this in B-School?" I did shut up and let him do this pain...

Another Wicket Down!

When someone is murdered , police usually investigate the spouse first . That is all you need to know about a marriage ! Another one bites dust today. The wheel of marriage started rolling with yours sincerely back in 2011. Three weddings and four years later, it was P's turn today. I happened to realise one thing. Not only one gets wiser by age or education but also by the number of weddings or social events in general that one attends. It is always good to know what happens next or what X type of aunties would do or how Y type on unmarried girls would turn up. All fun, none the less. That brings me to one more experience our lovely little group had when P was being chased by this guy with ugly teeth while she worked for a major dental and oral care brand! If one looks hard enough - one can derive irony from simplest of the things. Next fixed in line - AS & AS. Next looking for in line - AS (how many asses we have with us...
