New Year Eve

This could probably happen with few guys, having no time for life to getting bored, After i broke my leg in a concert I had to be rested for a 4 months, which is going to be completed in Januray. I got a feeling of getting bored, may be in First week of January i will start running and my next target to be in rhythm to have a half-marathon on my Birth Day, the 17-Apr. And to be in form for another marathon in next 6 months. This time I got to expand on my upper body, recomendation from few Girls and to be a little bit carefull on my dresss (non)sense.

Yeh I was close to love, got the company few girls but it is still away for me, not my cup of tea, Changed my company to tci9.com from Satyam and getting the new taste of life,

Huhhhh....

Weekend Party

Yeh I finished the book Shantaram and now on a vacation trip, listening to the CD "How to Break the rules to be a good manager" . Shantaram is a good book who need to know the insight into India and into the life. There are lots of phrases which really tocuches your butt and shakes yur head.

I had a party last night. And we guys over few beers were suddenly drifted towards a discussion on the meaning of life. In fact I was the culprit who started asking to Mr Mohanty "what do you mean by being a Sanyasi" who is an entrepreneur in refractories and probbaly He loved when gets introduced by being a Sanyas by heart.

Then the hot topic statred with the difference between "Body and Soul" and then the it was hotter and hotter. A famous Guru told that the "Body is an illusion and the Soul is the one which I do not know" as desribed by another chap.

few other catches. A lady on his mid sixties described when her Husband died while She was helping him on his bath tub, She felt that some part of her got out from his heart. We at last come into conclusion that it cannot be described and the perception changes from person to person. Slowly we drifted down to diferernt Gurus and tried to crack their inteligence by showing our intelligence. In fact I was mum listening to all these preaches over beer.

But this tiny guy (Into media biz) statred saying all these Gurus interpret the scriptures on their own way and probably they also do not know the meaning of their life, probably to which we all anonymously agreed and at the end we probably decided Dog is the only truth becuz He is faithfull. So being faithfull and being as a Dog is the meaning of life!!!!

But anyway we decided to carry on with our talk over plenty of beers on the next weekend probably at a camp in a Jungle. So keep an eye to this link.

Yeh I remember Julians word, a french guy who is probably in his mid 20's and has the wisdom of late 60's. I do not bother about all these meaing. I am more pragmatic and keep on loving my work and do not really bother to find all these answers.

But in my view raising the question to yourself "Who Am I, What am I, and What am I doing " and scratching your butt over there is a good thing to start/end.

Yeh the conclusion of the meet from 8PM till 12AM by julian was I am a good romantic listener and proabbly will be a hit among Girls in France, till now not sure if its a complementary or a teasing line.

Yeh there was this incident When the lady again opened up on her line, when her Baby Girl Mac asked; Mom why did you give us birth when I am going to die. And She embarced the Girl and said look I also do not know the meaning and in the mean time Mac(Her 7 Yr old son) hogged all of them and told "Why we need to bother on this when none knows what death is", amazing answer.

So guys keep waiting for our next set of beer to continue

Trading from Office

Recently as I was accesing a site for running to prepare a marathon schdule for one of my collegue and found it blocked where as someone else doing the trading as such thought of wrtitng this blog.

Probably its an offically acceptable norm to do the online trading from office. But is this ethical ??

I have heard of the fact that people used to shout at the network team when there is a slowness while accesing the trading site especially the icicdirect.com, in fact the slowness is caused by the simolteneouus access during the trading opening/closijng time.

My point is, "Is it officially accepatable to do the online trading from ofice during office hours". I am of the opinion that 20% of time is devoted to this site.

In my view the more the people are experienced the probablity of accessing this site is more, the same is propagated to the new joinees. Is this the truth. On my view around 50% of employees who are more than 4 years of experience (invariable of the position) devotes around 12% of the time on time. Probably Im giving a conservative figure.

I am of the opinion there is no right for persons to access these sites from office. I understand this adds to the growing economy of India.

But in my view let this trading work be outsourced to other peoples and a separate industry grow-up with their profesional expertise and as well a new job opporunity in India. Even in my view the employees will get quality trading with their expertise and the employees gets benefit on their expertise and devoting qulaity time at office.

I have seen the mind set of an employee after the loss/gain on a particular day. Even on any day there mind must be going with the planned trading in next few hours.

In my career I have seen my Boss doing the same, my team members too follow the pattern and invariably HRs usually have this site opened.

So guys lets opine.

The Bench experience

Now I am on my bench and probably I will be getting 1-2 months of no work period. I plan to enroll for the Yoga class in the evening and do my usual running workout in the morning with a mixture martial art. I would be really thankfull if someone get me a good martial art teacher in Bhubaneswar, I promise to be a good student.

And by this time I am also on the 3-4th of the book "Shantram" written by Gerrgia Robert. Its quite funny and a movie is planned with this book. This guy is really terrifc. I will be really glad to have an ounce of experience like this guy had.

Somehow in my heart I am tempted to be next Shantaram
