"Something about office"

Early morning travel, Adigas breakfast, morning working hours, then tea break, again work, lunch time , then the "tree" meeting with team, then again back to work, noon tea break, final work till the clock ticks 5 to leave for the day - - - a very very brief outline of my course at office.

Work Perspective : The best place to work. Friendly atmosphere. Help from any member of the team including the manager. Freedom to express new ideas. Lot of enthu filled atmosphere. No restriction for almost anything. A mentor to exclusively coach you. Great appreciation and recognition even for a small achievement

Enjoy Perspective : Lot of team outings , minimum 3 per month. Birthday celebrations with cake cutting. Team outings once in a while. Tea time team fun. "Tree" meeting fun. Lots of goodies now and then from manager. Freak out with friends at any time of the day.

Freedom Perspective : The "OPEN DOOR POLICY" which we have allows us to contact anyone till CEO of the company for any issues or concerns. No restriction on any website. No time restriction. No dress restriction. No attendance policy. Work from home largely supported.

Technology Perspective : An "Idea fest" every four months where you can exhibit your own ideas, if qualified will go to "Tech Con" , if approved there too , a patent can be filed. Tech talks, Coffee talks, Knowledge sharing sessions, Presentations across labs, and lot more.

Events Perspective : Cultural events, Karate events, Celebration events like cubicle decoration, Sports events, Inter floor competitions

Services Perspective : HR services, Banking services, Transport services, Stationary services, Reimburse claim services , service desk services, IT services all work up to date

THE FINAL TOUCH - " HP - STSD , THE BEST PLACE TO WORK AT "

Mail forwards

Forwarded mails are the most common these days especially in the curriculum of an IT professional. Bulk of these usually irritate us but there are many which could contain momentous information. Pictures, facts, humor, comparison, criticism, forecasts, antediluvian things are some examples of the types of these. Lack of work , boredum at work are overcome by these mails. Not all of them assume the same importance, there can even be some nonsense mails which irritate you. My recent obsession is reading up these mails and forwarding those to many.
