Hi,
This post is dedicated to all the IT companies, for they have made the world seem so small.
Yes, the term Global Village.

Well, the inspiration came from a morning incident, that took place in the bus, to office.
I and my roommate were dicussing Indian Railway minister Laloo Prasad Yadav, "I know him", she exclaimed, "He was my classmate", she added to the same. "What!!" I said, shocked. "Laloo Prasad Yadav was your classmate. He is such an inspiration. Can i meet him once? I want to pursue MBA." I said all in one breath..not believing my luck. "Shut up!! You are an ass. Mr Yadav is of my GrandPa's age." said my room mate. OOPS!! I think i missed these "minor details" in a high state of excitement. I took all my praises back from God. "I was talking about that big fat black guy at the back." she said looking grave and a bit shattered from my "remarks". I was disappoited as I turned to have a look at "Sabu"(my roommate's classmate).
"Yesterday i saw one of my childhood friend with whom i lost contact some 8 years ago, she joined recently. It seems 'naya batch' aaya hai", she was going on and on of how many 'lost friends' she had recently spotted in infy campus. Naya batch...this rang like a bell in my ears, for a few moments i thought i am in college :D.
After giving a serious thought to this incident...i reached at a very vital tantamount of orkut and 'BIG' IT companies.
I feel all these companies are very similar to ORKUT, which they ban. On orkut you only see the profiles...here you can meet these people directly, added facilities are communicators, mailboxes and food courts.
Other day on orkut(not infy campus..google waala orkut) i met a friend of mine, who took biology in 12th, she informed me she was 'also' joining infy next year. I was shocked...she is also engineer and proudly placed in INFY ORKUT.

This frenzy of placements will one day lead to "one SE for every comp in world" and the everybody will be placed here.
So friends if you have lost contact to anybody...dont search on ORKUT...join us. One or the other day...that lost person will be spotted in the company where you work.

BUSSINESS VENTURE ADVICE:
You can own a lost and found people's Agency as a part time to Infoscion. AMEN!!

Hi,

This post of mine is dedicated to all the KT(Knowledge Transfer) sessions held at workplaces. However most of its "facts" come from my personal experiences, but i also appreciate any "True Rumors" i get from elsewhere.

Pledge(I placed my hand(other hand) on my desktop while i wrote this): I shall not write what is incorrect and misleading. I will write in the intrest of all empolyees.

It was a fine morning and i came a "bit" late to office(it was 11:30) . Making myself comfortable in my chair, i proceeded to check the mails. ALAS!! There it was...joy faded and gloom settled in the surroundings. There was a KT Session scheduled in half an hour, for an hour. I saw around myself, people were running around to grab something..anything edible. After all there was "ONE" hour KT Session.

I reached just in time for the session and took my place farthest from the Preacher(one who takes the KT). After everybody settled down...preacher began with his preachings. He was talking something about modems and drivers. My mind and my soul were not with the preacher they were with Jill...my love. I imagined myself laughing and dancing with Jill in gardens and palaces. My hands were working franatically on the notepad...writing my love for Jill. While back in the room..preacher was still going on. People had now started asking doubts. I felt a bit scared, everybody understood everything except for me. Poor preacher was being shot with guns of questions and bullets of doubts... suddenly the image changed...it was a battle field with bullets flying...Uproar rising and for all bullets there was only one target PREACHER. He was cutting back but his shield of answers not protective enough and his blade of concepts not sharp enough soon he was bleeding profusely. Rush him to the hospital, I stood up and shouted. Everything suddenly became quiet, with all eyes fixed at me and mouths agape, mass was clearly astounded.

I prayed to god for a miracle...that the earth will crack and it will swallow EVERYBODY.
But god too i think was stunned and needed time to react, which Gaurav J denied me and god both. He took me beyond God's help...I was next standing in place of Preacher, i was to give REVERSE KT. The scene was a bit diffrent now. It was no longer a battle field, it was an execution with a lot of sympathetic but helpless audience.

I can not write beyond this.. as my eyes are so full of tears (no i was not chopping onions while writing this) that i cant see the screen clearly. And yes, Jill is my beloved Dog.

Well but some caveats for KT(based on survey done on SAT team):
1. Ask doubts to avoid reverse KT. (yes, shoot the preacher to save urself)
2. Take turns for taking down notes. So that you have the shield at execution.
3. Dont eat a lot just before KT. Otherwise you will sleep and will become a victim for execution.

Moral of the story:
So in Nut shell "BE A PREDATOR AND NOT A PREY."
