Nit's Wrote it...

It was now 30 minutes that I was waiting in that showroom… with AC breezing at full speed on a Sunday Afternoon it was a perfect setup to go for an Afternoon Siesta; but hey I was there for more important stuff. Finally decided to speak (5th time) to the Lady who was in front of me and was continuously talking on Phone… Mam – “I am getting late?” and she started crying… Now no matter how many resources you have handled in project or defused crisis situations at work place – a crying lady is something a Man is never prepared to handle. Let’s accept it It’s not in our DNA… we don’t see logic in most of the reasons for which they Cry and they just wonder why we need to have a Logic at first place… So it’s a catch 22 situation you see. Coming back to the Sunday Crying Lady - I tried my best to calm her down and offer water which was kept for me but she just walked away… Now that’s not how a Customer Relationship officer is supposed to behave but then every day is not a Sunday you...

Hey Nitin – Did you saw that mail…? We should respond “ASAP in next 5 minutes”. Me – Okkkkkkk… Which mail? You have not checked your mails yet… (As if it’s a crime in India not to check mails as soon as they come)  Me – Ahhh my outlook is acting bit weird you see - Long Live MicrosoftJ. And when I finally got to know which mail s\he was referring to I didn’t found any reason why we need to respond ASAP in 5 Minutes… BTW either it’s ASAP or 5 min; till now no theory has proved that ASAP = 5 minutes. Again it depends who is asking; so if your wife is asking to do a household stuff it’s by default ASAP and you are supposed to leave everything aside - get up right away and start doing it…  If your colleague is asking who is in direct completion with you then you have lifetime to do that work may be in next life if you wish to ;). If your Boss is asking you to do it mean you are already Late and you should have already done it by official standards – Lazy Bum J We all...

Thank you Captain… Saturday 18th January 2014 – a date I am not gonna forget easily.  OK – so day begin pretty early or should I say Night ended pretty soon when I departed from Pune at 2 AM for Mumbai; as I have to catch flight to Varanasi… It’s one of the shortest trip I was making to Varanasi – 24 hours and back (btw that’s the minimum one way travel time; if I would have taken service of Indian Railways’ - considering no delays in Foggy weather of North – Love Fog BTW- reminds me of some dear ones… ) Ok so at Terminal A1 awaiting Air India’s flight AI 695; not that great Terminal I would say as my mind was comparing it with “Exclusive T2 Terminal” pictures that every News channels was showing; just wonder every news channel has it and then also its “Exclusive”. Flight was on time though Information Board was lazy and showing it Delayed – may be effect of a Chilly morning; or it was miffed that why the board is not upgraded to T2 Terminal level ;) Boarded Flight; I a...

Yup you  read the headline correct… It’s not a Typo… Though headline shares its name with famous whisky brand but no am I not few pegs down ;) as you know I don’t drink. Hence Proved – Headline is correct!! So when whole world is in Party Mood and have already started the Pre-Bash prep why this geek is penning his thought on 31st December and that also with such funny headline – trying to be different? Naaa – I am already different in many ways (contact me in person for more details J ). I am penning this as a Return Gift to “Sweet 14”… Well 2 0 1 4 was a unique year for me… I believe I can proclaim this year as un-predicted and unplanned – almost all things didn’t went the way I planned itJ; now please don’t ask me to attend some Planning Trainings; I am not good at attending Classroom Trainings though always like to give one… ;) Coming back to “Sweet 14” aka 2014; it gave me many rich experiences and learning. Life was a Roller Costar ride in 2014 with many lows on p...

 Dedicated to all Respected Ladies I know Generally i don’t write Blogs (Notes) now days... (Though I want to write more often)   in fact it’s rare now that i anything apart from writing business mails... Life is kind of dedicated to writing mails from outlook - Accenture account :) So why suddenly on a Chilly Monday morning i am writing this blog to all Ladies out there… Reason is simple - a realization; something which i always thought that i knew or understand it but i never did... what i knew was miles away from  reality... ok i know you are going crazy ki kyaa bol raha hai - so let’s come to point – 4 days back i.e. on Friday Morning Sheetal (my dear wife) has to go to Varanasi; and we took a decision that Shubh (my 6 old year son) will stay with me in Pune... Sheetal was bit skeptical if i will be able to manage and i always like a cool chap said - don't worry yar; i will manage i am capable of it and what not (Damn overconfidence!! ). Her flight l...

Really I am loss of words today… there is so much to write and then there is none… Seems pressure of putting it as Last Note of the series is dawning upon me... I want this note to be memorable and perfect but this pre-defined target is acting as hindrance to my thought pattern. So I will let it flow naturally without worrying much about the end result J it may be bit emotional on some fronts but it will be natural - the true way…Links to all first 7 parts are below for your reference... Date  – 30th April 2012 Scene  – Home Mind is an amazing evaluation tool; if you are facing a problem alone it flags it as Big Issue but moment you know there are others who have gone through the same issue it considers it less serious. By this time I came to know of others who have faced Bales Palsy – One of them was my Lead and dear Friend Anubhav who had it while he was in class 12th and recovered completely. Other was a colleague of my friend - Kshama and he also recovered in 2 mo...

Date  – 7th January  2012 –  9 AM IST Scene  – Pune Home Tale is coming to end very soon so ensure you read all previous posts – links below It was road to recovery from now on… a slow recovery – Nerve is one of the slowest body parts when it comes to healing. In a kind we have a similarity – Laziness; I and nerve take our own sweet time to improve :) I have a peculiar Habit to give Target to myself for every work I do no matter how small or big it is… it may be reaching to office at particular time or completing some work at particular date… it gives me something to look forward to; something to feel happy about once you achieve that task. Well it’s an altogether different thing that when Wife gives you a task you will not be able to meet the target as she wants it complete it the moment order is given ;) So my first target to recover from BAP was 31st Jan 2012 which was a super challenging and highly optimistic in itself but it gave me an enthusiastic ...

Date  – 31st December  2011 –  11 PM IST Scene  – Surat Home Refer to below links at end of note for previous parts...   Celebration time!!  It was last day of year; had some big plans for New Year eve but now there were changes; change for good – celebrated it at home with family and it was one of best New Year Celebration I ever had. I firmly believe that it’s not the place which makes moment special; it’s the company in which you are during that moment makes it more special… Generally people take resolution on New Year day but this time god wanted me to beat them all and he made me to take my resolution before New Year itself. Resolution to fight BAP and smile again :) - Smile had become a distant thing as every time I wanted to smile it displayed a very awkward picture of face as only left side smiled and right side made no attempt to complete that curve (ever heard of split personality ;)) I was in Surat for next 6 days and continued daily ...

Date – 30th December 2011 – 2 PM IST Scene – Doctor # 5 Hey have you read previous 4 parts ? if not links below at end of note :) How many doctor you have changed in 2 days…? I don’t want the answer as you can’t beat my score J; In past 48 hours I have consulted to 4 doctors and now Family in Surat wanted me to consult 5th doctor… we met the super duper neuro physician and by this time I was exactly knowing what all questions he will ask and what checks he will be performing… Doc proclaimed that analysis of Pune doc is fine (it reminded me Math’s class equations where we used to write – Hence Proved!!) and it’s indeed Bells Palsey. One positive thing which came out is he directed me to a good Physiotherapist; only thing which can improve my recovery is physiotherapy mixed with my will to recover soon… Date – 30th December 2011 – 5 PM IST Scene – Physiotherapist clinic I was kinda less interested in this Physiotherapy thing until I reached her clinic… the beautiful phy...

Date – 30th December 2011 - 06 AM IST Scene – Surat Bus Stand BTW If you are joining me now; suggest reading previous posts for continuity; links at bottom of note… So here I was at 6 AM in Surat and my dear BIL Sulabh was there to receive me… Fortunately Bus Journey was smooth and night spent was far better compared to last night. Informed Parul (my best friend) about the interesting twist I was going through and she was superly worried of me being travelling alone… the best thing about friends is the care they bestow upon you in tough time and I was fortunate to get it in plenty in last 30 hours…  Only problem I faced is - I was given frequent stares from my co-passengers making me feel whether I am being eve teased ;) but I ignored it until Sulabh met me. He, Sheetal and others in family at Surat were informed by me that I am having an ear infection and will be coming over. Sulabh is usually at his cheerful best and one of most jovial person I know; he met me in a more...

Date - 29th December 2011 - 11 AM IST Scene – Poona Hospital So the anxiety and Battle going on my face has a name – Bell’s Palsy; suddenly It reminded me of my History books – the famous battle of Panipat and now here I am fighting battle of Pasly… so what is this thing actually. In Medical terms your nerves which control your facial movements gives away and you have no control on 50% of your facial muscles… In simple terms – this is a major communication problem as my brain was giving orders to my right side of face but nerves were not ready to listen, suddenly they have turned in to one of stubborn kind (this young generation nerves I tell you J ) or it seems they just revolted and went on a strike. Thankfully my other 50% of left facial nerves were loyal to me and for them it was BAU (Business as usual)… My Neuro physician who was my official Tarot card reader for the day fixed my appointment with a senior Neurology expert and ENT expert to get his analysis confirmed and ...

Date - 29th December 2011 - 06 AM IST Scene – Alone@Home Sweet Home During your school days – have you drawn a circle without compass? J you managed to draw a circle but its kinda twisted and not a perfect round – that’s exactly how my mouth was looking when I tried opening it check it nth time in mirror… 1000 thoughts were raising through my mind? Whether I am going through a paralysis attack? Have my muscles got strained and what not… mind is a wonderful thing – no matter how much you control it wants to do Root Cause Analysis at that very moment in such scenario… well there were many possible answers and unfortunately I was not on KBC but sure was on a Hot Seat ;) Sunrise and its early twilight always smoothen me and bring a feeling of calm and positiveness to me; on a chilly winter morning Sun was trying its best to come out of hazy and cloudy sky and gave a peek to this new look that I have dawned by now…  Well time to act and I dialed my Family Doctor Mr Badhe and d...

Date - 28th December 2011 - 03 PM IST Scene – Pune Railway Station As always one of the most crowded and chaotic place in Pune; but you literally don’t have choice but navigate yourself with Luggage ensuring your Family is not left behind… So what I was doing here – well came to drop Sheetal (wife), Shubh (Son), Parv (well he was practically there as Sheetal was 3 month pregnant then) Neha (Sister) and Amit (Bro in law). Neha and Amit were in Pune and now going back to mandsaur and Sheetal was going to Surat to spend some quality time with her parents; not as if she don’t spend quality time with me but you know what I mean… J Well train departed; bid adieu and being one of the professional lot – I went back to office and after some time it started… Slowly but I started feeling a minor irritation on skin below my right eye; not something which was troubling me but it made its presence felt throughout the day Date - 28th December 2011 - 09 PM IST Scene – Alone@Home Sweet H...

I am gazing this screen from past 10 minutes wondering what to write… well there is no compulsion to write you see; but there is a urge to write… may be I don’t want to be left behind when everyone around is writing a Blog; it’s becoming kind of a fashion trend and who want to stay behind :) Well I am not writing this note\blog to follow a trend...  how about setting one – oh come on...  well  just felt that I am kinda becoming less expressive now a days; and for a person who is full of expression & emotions such phase is hmmm boring I shd say… so how to get rid of it ?
