Phata-Phat

Hi All,

Again I am going to write a new chapter in my blog!!!

As I told you earlier, I am sitting as "Rust" from past few days(Please note, its not because of me.I'll call it as external problem).....Hmm...I am getting affected by the external problem..........

However,I am bit upset today because of my manager. He allotted me to a project. Without knowing the head and tail of the project,I was being a part of the project.....

He called me today and the conversation went on like this..

Manager:how's the project going?
Me:Hmm...It is going fine
My mind: Why are you asking me?????

Manager:So,are you a part of that project?
Me:Yeah,I attended the KT one day. But was not a part of execution
My mind: Should I tell that the KT was not sufficient?

manager: Why?..
Me:Because they dint allocate any work to me..When I asked what to do, they said "NOTHING"....
My mind: So sad...................

Manager:OK..Thank you.....u know that project is ending my next week??/
Me:Yes
My mind: Who cares...........
Discussion over and I came back...

With lots of sadness I came to my seat and started  thinking about my "FIRST" project experience.....

It was in Hyderabad.I started my fist project with Sony Ericsson.It was a very good project..You  have hell a lots of Sony phones near you.You need to test that.....

I started working. And work became very interesting. We used to tamper live network and do testing there. Testing was mainly about sending WAP messages to Sony Ericsson users called "Sony Play"....

I had a good rapport with my developer and he allowed to place mobile numbers (more than 50 thousand numbers) of Sony phone users for testing. On that day of testing,he clearly told me that, we need to take the mobile numbers from live after 2 hours as the live WAP message pushing will start.....

I agreed and completed my testing in an hour. I was happy and more over my boss was happy....

However,clock crossed 2 hours and I forgot to remove the testing numbers from the live environment. It had almost 1 lakh phone numbers.....

After 10 minutes, I got a call from the developer in my office number..

Developer: Did you remove the phone numbers from live?(Sounded like he would kill me)
Me:Oh!!!!!!!!I forgot....

Developer,however could not slap me..So he slapped the other end of the phone. I felt like he slapped me in my cheeks................

Now,I don't have an option..I ran to my manager. I told him what happened along with my senior...

Manager became angry and he shouted............
Manager:Phata-Phata stop karo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


My senior ran out....I stood there for some time thinking what to do scrubbing by head......
Then I too ran to my seat....
I could hear giggling from my colleagues....

I started thinking.............

"What is Phata-Phat???"..."Is there anything like that in the Live environment......???"

I started searching the Live folders for "Phata-Phat" so that I can stop it............

After searching  for 30 minutes,I could not find it....I was in a verge of tears.........My testing went on for a flop...........

When I turned back, I could see my senior sitting almost relaxed....I went to her...

Me:I am sorry...I searched all the live folder. I couldn't stop it...Will I be sacked from work?
Senior:What did you search?
Me:I searched  for "Phata-Phat...But I dint find it...I couldn't stop it"....


Valkashanam:She started laughing and almost started rolling in the floor....

Everyone came to know about that and started laughing....

She told me in my ears the meaning of "Phata-Phat"..........................

For all the mallus who don't know much Hindi...Phata-Phat=Fast"...

Hello,

This is my first blog......
I am sitting in my office doing nothing for past some days..........Lots of confusion about the projects from the past few days.......

I was also part of the confusion for the past few days ...and now I voluntarily retired from that confusion....
"Idle mind is a devil's ....."..I have heard about that...But now I don't have any option rather than being idle...
I made up my mind to write a blog...Now "what topic???"....

Some time before, I had read a topic on "Pennu kanal" which was all on Lady's perspective. In all that cases, women were all good and men were all cheap and nasty....That prompted me to write something about how a guy views a "Pennu kanal chadangu"

For readers information,"Pennu kanal" is a function where in guy(ready for marriage) goes and sees his counterpart in her family with his relatives......

It was me and my father who went to see this girl..I was working in an IT company in Chennai. I took a train from Chennai to my hometown which was more than 8 hours journey. Tired "me" reached home and started getting ready to go for the "Pennu kanal"...

We had to travel another 4 hours to her house.So,we thought of not taking our car and go in Train.We booked a 2AC ticket and started the journey.You would be wondering why I said about the class of train that we travelled.Ill explain the reason as the story goes.....

Train was running very very late that usual and for 4 hours journey,it took almost 6 hours to reach the place.My father had informed the same to girls family while we were in the train.

Finally we reached the railway station.And now going to the girls house,we need to take an auto.We took the auto and started the journey.On they way my father was asking the gils father to tell the correct location.He dint tell that.Instead he told to get down at a point and we did exactly the same.

After getting there,we called him and started waiting for him for almost 30 min.One car came and stopped in the opposite side of the road and I could feel some one inside the car is watching both of us for almost 5 minutes.

Then we got a call from girls father and he said he is in that car.We crossed the road and went near his car and we got it in.He drove to the same direction as we were standing and it dint take even a 5 minutes to reach their home from that point.....

I still wonder what would have made them to take 30 min in their first journey..........

All fake smiles and we enter the house..Then came the irritating "Laddu",chips and tea.....I did sip the tea and immediately I was thinking about my mother who makes "The best tea"...

Now "the girl " comes and stand infront of me.I looked at her and smiled.I don't know whether she smiled.
Now its turn to talk to her personally.She took me to her "bedroom".

I was sitting in the bed and she was sitting opposite to me in a chair.We greeted each other.
We spoke about some "blah..blah...blah.....".

Immediately she asked me..."So what are your future plans?

Me:Hmmm....I don't know..I am working and would like to continue my work.
She:I need to work.I don't like dependency
Me:ok......
She:I wanted a husband who can speak English in public
Me:Yeah,Yeah..I speak good English....
She:OK..
Me:So what are your expecations?
She:I want a husband who can take care of my parents
Me:hmmmmmm......

We smiled and came out....Then her father was speaking...
Father:Her horoscope says whe will have child in another 12 months.....
Me:What?????????(In mind)
Father:Dont you have a car?
Me:We do...but who will drive all this way ...I was tired....
Father:OK...So how are you going back?If you walk 5 min to the point,you will get auto to the railway station.
My Father's face turned so bad that he dint utter a word....

Her mother sensed something wrong and told her husband to drop us back to the railway station.
We sat in his car.When that point came,I asked him to stop the car and said "Thank you" and we got down......................................


Valkashnam:After 2 days,they called us and asked "Are you interested in proceeding?"..................

Well,you might have guessed the reply.............
