Likes n Dislikes ....

Now that it is almost 3 weeks in the new place....its time I start cribbing :d [ typical me huh! ]..just thought would list out things I liked and those which I didn't like :

• Office is 10 mins from home :)
• Food is good :D
• One team mate ...I found him very very sensible
  
• one more team mate....candidate for my "to be crazy about" list..he just seems to know everything under the sun :)
  
• Boss not too formal
• Day one .. I got the laptop,cube everything..all set ..didn't have to run around to get things
• variety of biscuits [ I mean the real edible ones ...for others I haven't interacted with my boss much yet ;) ]

Now the fuss ....

• one team mate of mine, she wants to know everything about me [ what time i come, what time I go, why i missed one day eeks ]...too nosy
• one team mate...with that ever confused look on her face, comments on almost everything...but makes no sense to me
• that old guy in the team who refuses to open up or share anything about the product
• boss doesn't bother to introduce me to the team....
• team seems to be not soo interested / proud about the work they are doing
• the home grown defect tracking tool they are using...JUNK it is...
• All the testcases seem to be written in BC and are still being followed
• There is a mailing list for the team, but still people send mails individually to all the ppl of the mailing list
• Test cases just revolve around open/close files... :(
  
• Missing all my friends at cisco...
  

SHE and the Golden Gate Bridge!

2009 Dec to Mar 2011 ....a BIG gap..no posts on Baduku.....but ya lot of events in the actual baduku !!!!

Its been a decade since she embraced me.....she taught me to work,live and play ....all in a different way! Today I move away from her....reasons .......I can quote a few...but sometimes I can't convince myself and can't believe am moving away....

Until she came into my life....I didn't know she existed...[ Now, I laugh at my own ignorance]...the day I met her, she made me an offer I could not refuse...wow! what a day it was! and she was the envy of all my friends ;) ...it is only later in the journey I realized how gigantic she was...it was not just money...but she had much more to offer!

She gifted me with good mentors n great friends...mentors taught me to learn :) n friends made my every day a celebration ....

She offered me changes n challenges....which made the journey interesting and meaningful.
[ well "change" itself is the biggest "challenge" for me ..hopefully I ll handle it better in the coming days....]

She helped me realize my true potential, and empowered me!

Its hard for me to imagine a world without her..but still, I believe...every end has a new beginning........And in search of that new beginning......I enter a new world...!
