Am a confirmed employee now!!!

Long time!!!

:) feels funny when i look back on those few months

I have got a raise of 6K bucks after working in a s/w cmpy for 12 months and
after working effectively for 5 months.

They have this funda about curve fitting where during performance appraisal, there should be
ppl with performances distributed in the form of a normal curve

I had on a few occasions questioned my PL in a not so nice manner, which he deserved and
he has in turn given me an appraisal that i deserve....

have a very funny feeling about the whole affair....

Sri vidhya is going to Belgium to pursue higher studies.

Following was one of my musings with her...

>>How much greatness is Great?>I am confused?>I fail to admit that i am mediocre even when my face is buried in the>dirt!>I definitely agree with you that its very difficult for me to appreciate>the little accomplishments of my peers!>I seem to appreciate peers if it doesnt coincide in any way with my area>of growth....the moment it does, my limbic brain takes over>and i react as if i react to competition. Sometimes i realise, that my>feelin of withholding of realization of someone else's hardwork or talent>is futile.>And i acknowledge it.>But true appreciation and admiration comes for those who are what they>because they are what they are......>I mean to say.....a tree gives its fragrance because that is its inherent>property...>and it gives alike to a beggar, to a maharaja....>and it still is fragrant when no one is around.>>And when i see THAT thing similar to the fragrance of a tree, that kind of>talent , that kind of Goodness, that kind of spontaneous positive energy>in any direction,>I can bow a hundred times.....because it is totally independent of my>existence>But still on a lighter note>It just requires a little reprogramming here and there and a little>training......>My brain can be reprogrammed to appreciate the little breakthroughs my>fellas make!>>I agree with you shree.....i will make an effort not to restrict myself> from acknowledging the effort taken by ma fellas....>


I simply love her....i miss her so much at times...
