Raj ne meri leaves pe paani fer diya

First thing first. Book the ticket, but Prasad (Narmeta) said he has US credit card :( but suggested to ask Prasad (Nayadu) for the same. and to ship the financial documents to Saama for Form-16. Prasad came and said no problem for making a ticket purchase of ticket using his credit card. He bought the ticket for me and didn't even ask for payment even though I was willing to pay him for that immediately.

Now comes the surprise package from Pune with my relocation bills which Victor was sending for more than week and more shocking was the cost of shipping. 185 bucks.. really a high amount, but blue dart charges high. I promptly paid that immediately after the call. Yeshwant told me that Sunil is throwing his party. He was unhappy that some stuff which he could buy in US, he refused owing to NOT HAVING MONEY.

Now Raj told me some changes about the cashier dashboard reports. One formula was incorrect rather not sure. There were lots of mistakes. Not logical but yes... like names of metrics were non-descriptive, objects not reused. and Non-volatile tables. In Teradata. Something that's rarely seen is non-volatile tables. Oh my god.. I was grilled like hell.. That each second of explaining thins was like an hour to me.. Well, I made changes as per asked, but got stuck at Credit Card Approval report. It reports has only one date column (good) but that's how we were NOT designing the prompts. (This dashboard is going to have 4 reports and it there are unique prompts per reports, user would be promoted 4 times to input same.. very user unfriendly. There is a workaround of this BTW) Here comes totally different Raj. He explains to me the whole logic about about two dates, how they have been connected etc very well. I reallied understood few thing which I had not understood before. And explained things to me very well. :) I'm really surprised. and finally, I found the reason behind non-volatile table too. Blame it to Moving Difference. and Raj is getting married on 5th Feb 2007. I have lost my leaves :( for the same week, I know.

I called up the Engineer to get the PCU fan problem fixed and repeatedly found his cell switched off. These guys are like that. Sent him a message asking for a call back.
