Q1 Result 2007!!!

Foreword!!!

Well, its that time of the year when every1’s releasing their quarterly reports. So I think, why not I too??... Maybe I’ll start a trend that’ll catch on and be a start of a new revolution!!! God knows we could do with quarterly reports on the activities of politicians and cricket teams… Some accountability here could do wonders for performance, rite? So lets get on with the report…

Letter to stake holders:

Am in majet. Life is good. Forecast is positive… hope to be in majet next quarter and thereafter as well… Read further for specifics.

Index

To short for page numbers. The report is divided into three main sections… personal, professional, and social with various subsections. At the end of the report there’s the Happening in Q1 2007 and Not Happening in 2007 section, Don’t miss it!!!!

Personal:

Physical Health:
Good, no troubles in the last quarter. Need to improve physical fitness, will get down to it some day. Planning an IPO to raise funds for talwalkars.

Mental health:
No traumatic events in the past quarter. Was okay other than a few sad days, which I suppose is normal… If u aint ever sad, you wont realize the value of happiness (Wah!!!)

Love health (???, cant think of a better title)
Position vacant, still looking…
Intelligent (important), Funny (important), positive (important), super beautiful (not THAT important but would be given preference in case of tie in first three characteristics, in other words - tie breaker #1), rich (tie breaker #2) girls can apply… Hurry up, kahi ye mauka aapke haathon se nikal na jaaye!!!!

Major events:
Couple of Job changes.. (more details in professional section)… Got a new car… Dadi fell down, arm in plaster… She’s well now, although there’s still some time for the cast to come off

Professional:

Quit integrascreen following 2 mths of Notice period.. Still miss the ppl there, not so much the place, although I still have some very very good memories there!!!

Joined a new co. for a verry short time n left… Ppl were good, work was okay, pay was good…just got n offer I couldn’t pass up!!! Which brings me to.. Patni.. yes folks, am now with patni computers… business Research Analyst!! Work is damn cool, am workin on some great stuff… work pressure is okay… company is rocking too (not hard rock though…more U2/bryan Adams than Metallica/Iron maiden.. but hey, we still rock!!!)

Overall, this quarter was very good time for me professionally, I see myself staying here at patni for a long time.. :)

Social life:

Didn’t make many new friends this quarter, hard to meet existing standard you see… Been meeting Stairrorists/Integrites almost every week this quarter and almost every time is fun… There was a lull in stairrorist activities for some time but things have started happening again… High Points of the quarter would be Anand Resort/Elephanta Caves with Integra Folk n Bheja Fry/Np meets with the stairs….

Most of the folk I know seem to have had good quarters themselves (some literally have good quarters or even ‘khamba’s)… One or two ppl been sulkin around in depression… which I’ve been told is a ‘normal phase’ for almost every1 sometimes…maybe its true, but shutting ppl off for weeks, (almost 4-5 months in case of one moronic but other wise very smart person, who btw, is more kameena than me…..Sorry for drifting off here.. back to the point) doesn’t make sense, especially since me Being a person who sees even an empty glass as partially filled with water due to the water vapor content in air (slight exaggeration here)… In case you didn’t get the connection, I was saying how positive I am and others should be too….

Rest is cool…
