It has been a long long time since I blogged. Things were pretty hectic and confusing. AW and gang had shifted to Pune w/o paying salaries to anyone and we all patiently waited for it, though the patience started wearing thin after 20th. On 20th I went to receive VS who went to Axis bank to withdraw a large sum of money and we had to deposit cash in the OBC bank. Easier said than done !!!!. The cashier refused to accept so much cash, we had to go to manager, who talked to cashier who talked to us who talked to AW who talked to manager who again talked to his cashier and after 1 hour they decided to accept the cash !!!!! It was the kind of mess that gets very little press but which is the daily routine for thousands of people who need to get things done in banks or in govt offices. Very sad state of affairs...
I got the latest short stories collection from Archer "Thereby hangs a tale". Some of the stories are very good while others are ok kind. One story where in the receptionist fools a visitor to sleep with her was very very good.
I also watched Toy Story 3 which is a must watch movie. Seriously, the animation movie is one hell of a movie which can be watched by all age groups. There were some scenes in the movie which caused a lump to develop in my throat, it is that good a movie. I have also heard a lot of praise about Inception so I am going to watch it soon.
On the work front, I managed to make 400 bots sit together on different tables and the back office records matched too, which was a huge challenge. Now all the records match, grs entries with real chips delta in t_user which also match with the login session records. I had been meaning to solve this problem since January this year so finally solving it was a huge milestone for me. Now I am targeting 1000 bots to sit together. I hope every thing works out well then.
We have also started our search for a good school for Kush in Pune. One school Symbiosis International School is ready to admit our son but the fees are very very high, 2.2 lakh per child per year. I don't know how many people can really afford that kind of fees. DPS refused to even consider our application. Tomorrow I will talk to St Mary's which has a great reputation and which is a ICSE affiliated school.
