First Week in Infy

Holla Mysore.....a Mumbaikar is here...!!
But sadly, its only "Anda kunda thanda paani " here :(
Anyways, first day was the worst experience...arrived in bangalore at around 9:30 pm and took a bus for mysore: 2.5 hours journey... arrived at mysore city at around 12-12:30.
Banjar jagah hain ye..... total GAON... Anyways...reached infy campus at 10 next morning,
got only my laptop and docs to the campus.....got into a qualis carrying us to the reception.
And then in my qualis, it was another invasion of south india....all speaking broken english with no knowledge of hindi....and having ringtones "of the south indian songs"....man was the last straw!!!

Campus was like 1000 acres.....soooooo BIIIIGGGG...so spacious...having everything...almost a mini city!!!!! I was given a 6 floor building with no lift....hahha....man, "7 maale ki building baandh dete hain...lift ki jagah nahi banayi" Then entire day was spent by feeling homesick and wanting to hear some hindi...or even marathi... It wasnt up until evening when i really did meet some people around here...Hindi speaking people...my old frnds....new ones...especially mumbai ones....man that felt good!!!!
I was made to fear infy training at this outset....and also of its intensity as well. :)
Next day all the boring seminar's started....still going on... Values Values and more Values....Achar daal values ka.... >:-|
ILI session aka personality and comm skill development...for a week
Saturday's working...man infy is testing us that join us or leave...we aint caring... :(

On the downside to this campus....food is bad!!! But to the mumbaikar's perspective only...
Chicken is good...i m actually spending more than others...subah shaam sirf chicken ho raha hain.... Mysore weather is like the sand..compared to mumbai which is like water...mysore is hot...and i mean reallllly hot in the day and cools down signifcantly at night...
they provide cycles...which are usually not available since lazy guys like me leave late...
Moreover the boys hostel is a GOOD 2 KM away from the work building...
and we usually walk.... :O

Out of 480 odd ppl in our batch, arnd 20 from west, 100 odd from north and east, around 200-250 are from south...Invasion of South India... (no offence to any body in particular)get really irritating sometimes...anyways...its the culture...cant help it!!
Anyways... No other place like Mumbai... no comparison also... :(
Mumbai guys...have fun and try not to leave !!!!!! ^_^

More to come !!! only thing keeping me alive is laptop and data card... comments are welcome..
cuz m longing for some interaction here... :)
