This mail actually surprized me. I was on VPN not checking my mails only once a while. I was shocked to read "Despite all the statements made here, I am in full appreciation of all the hard work done by my colleagues in HR." by my Manager. Just 10 minutes ago of reading this mail I had gone to him to speak from my side and he used "s!@#Wed up" word for HR. Well, I have never ever heard any PM using such firece comments in my life.
Let us dig into this a bit. I had sent mail to Chitra asking about the Disturbance Allowance missing from Salary (1st June). I was replied there would be check and would get back to me. My manager was part of the CC. Well there was usual HR inaction (as I'm awaiting a reply from BALASUNDAR Aparna for the resumes I had reffered). Worse than even Cyabge. At least they reply with negative in 15 days time. It had been months since I have sent 3 resumes. There was no action of talk on the same by my Manager. But when I let out my anger on HR, voila, my Manager got furious. He threatened to fire me. Do that to me dude. Is asking for your rights is so much concered. Aren't you ashamed that I had to shout for myself. He told me that people those who work under him woudl like hiim very much and that's the best appreciation for me. Well, I really do not care what rest of think of you as manager. No manager had ever spoken about "firing you" in my whole life. And well, he is trying to scare who has already seen all these. [:)] "If you don't like it, LEAVE" that were his words. Well, I'm not a quitter. Zindgi mein acheche achchon ko seedha kiya hai. Well, now I have become smooth for all such managerial bullcrap.
Those who know me well, know that with Ashish there is no XXXXing room for hickups, mistakes and must be at time supposed to be. Errors (w/o reasons) freak me out big time.

Aerosmith was Gawd f***ing great
[written on 3rd June]
I had come to office on Saturday as there were some critical issues to be fixed. I was lucky to find workaround for and object prompt comtaining hierachy prompt and filtered object prompt to be accepted by a report. Previously the option ws greyed out. I was getting damn pissed over it. You can create such a prompt but you can't use it. Last but not least, Santhosh helped me getting a ApplySimple correct. I though that would take half an hour but with his help it was just 5 minutes. Remember: he is a completely non-MSTR guy. I left office at 3:10 PM. We were trying to get the correct Unit Sold at that time. But the function was not able to access two tables in one SQL statement. Don't know how taht will go.
I took a rick for Domlur Bus Depot. Rs 12. Asked a cunductor for a bus to Shivaji Nagar. Santhosh had suggested to goto Shibaji Nagar by bus as that would be easy and from there I could catch a rick to reach the venue. Well, there was no bus and I was getting impatient. Those know know, know it well that I can't stand in queue. Took a rick for Palace Ground. The bloddy driver knew it well that I wanted to know to main gate, but he entered the Palace Ground Road from back side. Caused me a 15 minute delay. Fare 86.50. I gave him Rs. 100 note. Driver said if that was alight keeping the note. I replied WTH. Had it been Mumbai the driver might have returned me Rs 14 or 15. This bugger thinks "ki software mein haram ka paisa milta hai". Bastards. He gave me Rs 10 back grugingly.
I entered the place. There was a bad arrangement of parking. I just roamed the place. This was still qyuite far from the show ground. I though to have something before entering as I would be eating/drinking anything till the end of show. I got out and searched for a shop. No shop close by. I bought two Nestle Milkybar. I like that choclate very much. I had the choclates by the time I reached back the venue and joined a queue. It had started moving. after 15 minutes I was still quite far, TOPS Security (Compnay big name in private sucurity, FYI, banned in Mumbai) realized to announce that females needed to be in a seperate queue (there freasking is inside temp closed area). Finally my chance came, The guy checked my socks too. Was carrying cell, bike keys and Covansys ID in hands. After this, I had to get into the main queue for Rs 1800 (Blue Section). That queue was zig-zag, and helped me getting in one of the first among firsts. I had pass through another xray machine. Strangly, machine didn't beeped at all when I crossed.
I got to stand just 5 meters away from the stage and 2-3 meters from the ramp (coming out of stage) making a T like structure. I spoke with fellow fan. I was in by 5:45 then. In mean time lots and lots comments were passed by fans on crew, security, instruments checkers, a guy called Nachappa whose GF entered at 7, lights man, camera man, all peeps and that was very obvious as there was no sign on Aerosmith till 8:15 and peeps had gather from 5:30. Well, all angers vanished when they rocked on the stage. Well, stage was pitch balck, all lights turned off but the back screen was showing an Indian flag hoisted. It dind't take a second for me to that Aerosmith are gonna open with "Taste of India". (when while writing I'm feeling great). The rock party went till 10:45. Time full of enjoy, fun, excitement and seeing Aerosmith in flesh probably once in life time.
Setline is as follows:
Taste of India
Elevator
Fallin In Love
Cryin
Eat The Rich
Jaded
What It Takes
Baby Please
Seasons
Dream On
Last Child
Edge
Stop Messin
Sweet Emotions
Draw The Line
Walk This Way
They sung "Don't wanna miss a thing" as bonus song (even though tyler promised for two).
I got out was had to search for a rick. No rick was willing to come unless paid twice of fair. Palace Grounds in 15-20 km from Koramangala. I got talking about two guys while asking the way towards M G Road (which would be on way to Koramangala).
I asked a Pulsar rider if he was going MG Raod and he said he was going to Koramangala. Wow.. I asked him if he could rop me and voila. I was extremely worried of sleeping without dinner as all eatries put shutter by 9 in Bangalore, except few bigs once and of course Domino's. While on bike I came to know he was working in Intel and was actually staying at BTM, even farther from Koramangala. I asked him if he could drop me at Domino's on 80 feet road. My place was around 2-3 km out of way for him. Well, I could say he didn't like it but still he dropped me. He was like an angle to me. I don't think I could have had reached by 11:30 to Domino's. In fact, when I placed my order it was 11:25. Had Medium combo for Rs 249 as usual. Spoke with Parents as usual at 11:30. While waiting for Pizza, I realized that I had kept the Home keys at office as they were quite long. Called Kanishk if he could open main door. But it seemed he was fast asleep, he didn't pick up the phone. Well, after some time he called me. I told him the situation. He said no problem. [:)]
