Humorous journey

It was Sunday evening 4pm; I took intercity express to Secunderabad after spending weekend at home. To my surprise the train was half filled, this wasn’t same 2 weeks ago. I sat beside an old man who was in sleepy mode. The seat left to us was filled by 3 aunties; all are of equal age mid 30’s. My opposite seat was taken by a young man. The train started with in 5min of halt and the humor begins. The first words I heard from one of the aunt was “The seat was not comfortable for us. By the time our kids complete their 2^nd year of intermediate this should be comfortable”. Little smile came on my face, but soon the next incident can’t stop me laughing aloud. That incident was, a fruit seller came at that time and aunt bought some fruits, she started eating and stopped the samosa vendor to take some. Then the guy sat opposite to me asked “How can you lose calories if your intake is too much”. They started arguing on this topic and later moved to different topics like 'men Vs women', 'strong Vs weak' etc. When the atmosphere is becoming a little bit hot, then we heard a man shouting biscuits and ice cream. We people exchanged our looks and started laughing. After few minutes aunt got her chance. The guy opposite me was 32 years old and unmarried. She asked him, why he was still a bachelor? He explained a few reasons and said he was in search now. Aunt asked what the qualities you are looking for. The word war between them made us laugh and drops of water roll off from our eyes.

Lucky Day - Happy Day

Yesterday was a lucky day. First thing was, I got my black cap that was lost 10+ days back. Second one was a sensation. I played in an ongoing internal pool tournament (my first ever) along with my teammate Amardeep. We are not even average pool players. We beat one of the tough opponents in doubles first round. The game was played as follow. The winners will be selected from best of 3 matches. The victory in first match swung from one team to another. My last shot (potted two + black balls) of that match gave us first win. Second game was completely dominated by opponents from beginning; we fought hard but lost the match. The first half of final match was dominated by us and we are left with only black ball to pot where as opposition had 4 balls. One chance for opponents changed the game in which they potted all 4 balls and black remained for potting. Audience are enjoying the game and are in superb tension. Some ones bad luck will becomes some others good luck. It happened for our opposition; the black ball came almost near the pot but was not potted. With an easy shot I completed the match and we are through to next round...!!!
None can stop you, if the day is yours. Live everyday as it's your day.

A week that boost my confidence as a technical specialist

Last week was a workaholic week, releasing a cumulative patch to one of our customer. Only few issues need to be fixed but there were lot of scenarios to test. We planned to fix all the issues first and then verify the test cases as they are interrelated. We were able to fix them easily. Our only concern was preparation of few hazardous settings for testing. After few hours of hard work, we are able test and finally release the patch. Apart this cumulative patch, I helped friends in finding the resolution of similar product issues. I'm able to debug the code of product (TCA) and find solution for cross product problems. These journeys never stop/end but when looked back gives a lot of satisfaction.
