A Reminisce…



East, West, North or South, people breath air, drink water, eat food and need light…They have feelings and sentiments….

Depending on the whether and circumstances, food, clothing and shelter differ, and depending on the culture, education and the surroundings, the behavior…and life pattern….

During the past couple of months, could sleep at night, work during the day..no cooking, cleaning required.... There is these favourate quotes of mine send once by Paul, which is by Henry Ford: Innovation isn’t made by hard workers, but by Lazy people, trying to find easier ways to do the same.....So be proud to be lazy....
Cosy bed, microwave, dishwasher, cooked food, cab, hot/cold water of your choice for anything and everything except to go to the lue.., paper, paper and paper everywhere...., People here are so polite and what not....They will:

Tell you 'Thank You' for anything and everything.
Open the door for you...(Just imagine this happening in India, that person will have to stand there for ever)
Say 'Bless You' when you sneeze.
Say ‘Thank You; when someone tells bless you.
Turn around and Say ‘Excuse me’ when you cough…
Never mind doing any thing...

There’s warmth in everything that they do. Workplace is just workplace for them. Wasn’t there a change in our response to such people, and also in the dealings between us too? We also tend to behave like them. We too stop minding opening door for them, saying thank you for every help that we get, smiling at everyone, and laughing loud! What can we derive out of this thought? Do we need change?? Necessarily not….

True, there were people loosing jobs, and their reactions were obvious…

And we were:
1. Vishwamitra or Krishna: set with a smile, asking every one to please tell in English ….'Two good neighbour'
2. Munshi, Mr. Sing,Sleeping hugging the clock, is it what is called round the clock?
3. Single Slip of the tongue, busy with love meeting….meow meow….
4. Father, dreamy, homely trying to be ‘happy’ missing home….'To good neighbour'
5. Ha, ha ha…coli nose, dekthey hey dekthey soo janey wala,
6. Snowman, maveli, santaclause, photographer,
7. Apperances are often deceptive, baby of the team, is busy DFS…incredible, unbelievable…hero...when he came he was a batchlor and now he is........
8. Awaiting to return and hunt for a bride, finally all smiles, when sme left??
9. Wire transfer means stomach transfer, all set to teach Malayalam here.
10. Dreamy eyes, happy that there is someone to entertain his children back home with similar dress that he had brought here
11. Home alone, boosssyy booossy, all set to create a record of process maps…
12. Theen Thigada Ladies, khay yee log kam bigadega ya sudarega?? One somalian pirate, the other bloggini, and the third...yap yap yap....


....I remember someone having said:

1. Visa interview is like engagement.
2. Getting into and reaching US is like marriage.
3. Stay during transition is honeymoon and
4. The real life starts when the project goes live!!! Life can be pleasant or unpleasant…

Hoping and praying that it be pleasant one without misunderstandings, confusions, and extensions….

… Shankers will be back on the coconut tree soon!!!

I take the good with the bad, Smile with the sad,
Love what I got, And remember what I had.
Always forgive and forget, Learn from my mistakes,
But never regret. People change, things go wrong,
I just know one thng .. That the show must Go On....

Picture abhi bhakee hey mere bhai!!!
