3rd week part II

Went for the team event last week and it was fun, thought this is the normal thing teams do here every month ;-) but that was not the case. Its just that I was lucky to be here at the right time :-D
Well, it was fun, met some more people in the team and realized how much team managers take care of their teams here. They were planning fun activities to be done in the weekly status meeting lol (ye I know what you are thinking - when do they take status) - I wish I knew.

Met some one from West here and I just went crazy looking at him, it was like meeting some one from the family here :D Well we discussed that how people work here and how much time do they waste walking around from building to building for 1 meeting :-o

TTV in East: Some of us got TVs in the floor cafetaria here with all the channels except for some "bad" channels ;-) So, now people are taking longer lunch and coffee breaks and hey I am enjoying it too. The cricket league started in India just last week and TTV is showing it LIVE wow!!! So, just imagine how many times I am going to get water and then coffeem then lunch, then just pass around blah blah blah. I am sure in next 1 month most of the people here on my floor will learn cricket

Selling PPQA in east: Do you know the selling point of ppqa in this part of the world was - telling east ppl that west ppl are using it and are really happy with the results lol. So, guess what most of them think that I should be a champion ye right :-( But, these people take ppqa more seriously than most of us and REALLY spend time creating documents... whatever ...

Ist Status meeting for project: Had my first weekly meeting today. Now, first tell me one thing. How a person is suppose to have weekly status meeting with net meeting.
It felt as if I am repeasting my self and wasting papers by taking all the print outs, not many BSAs here are use to of creating task list. They just want PMs to know if they can complete the build or deliverables or whatever by the end date and other than that nothing. Guess what - I am changing it and they are disliking it ;-)

OK rest later...
