The 16th of April was election day in AP... It was the middle of the week... My colleague, Srinivas, working in Bangalore, went to Hyderabad, voted, and came back the next day... He effectively, forfeited a day's paid leave...

How cool is that?

IMO, definitely cool! :-)

for me; and then, for a cause

It's my birthday today... I get to have a wish then; don't I? What's that you say? You know me well enough to say NO; eh? :-P

In contrast to my usual selfish nature; this time round, I ask you to do something for the world.

Tonight, switch off your lights for an hour between 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM to celebrate Earth Hour. Sadly though, I won't be around to stand by your side; as I would be fast asleep and travelling. But not to worry! Aamir Khan and people from 800 cities across 85 countries will be with you during this hour. :-)

More information on this can be found at http://earthhour.in/

brother talk  

Posted by Rithish

me: in office?

Rohith: yup
busy?
me: no weekend. eh?
not much..
Rohith: had a meeting
me: ok..
Rohith: just came out of it
me: how did it go?
the meeting?
Rohith: admin and finance stuff. got bowled over with rental depreciation, tax payouts and s#t like that
me: :-D
Rohith: and now they want a mark-up of at least 30% on all third party payouts
"Are we a knowledge based firm or a w$%#@house" I ask
there is a laughter all around but from the GM
The GM gives me a glare and says "Rohith, no harsh word"
I say OK and start sulking
me: and?
Rohith: The next moment I hear him shouting "I dont care how, but f$#%ing pay them"
me: :-D
Rohith: He looks at me and smiles
and there is laughter all around
These meetings are never serious and I dont remember any time we have walked out with a solution
So there goes my weekend


Conversations with my brother are most definitely humorous! :-D
