Ok, I am in the office today inspite of it being Saturday read weekend. I need to haul ass with the radio code. I have now moved to the keyboard/display package.
I asked Scott in the last telecon what his estimated time for the interface manager package coding effort was. He said 40 hours. And how many hours have I consumed there...112 hours(40+32+40).
I am 300% behind time here. Scott says he is not concerned this week but he says that I need to get cracking by the next (It means he's going to whip my ass next wekend if my boat doesn't move upstream).
Anyway, Interface manager is done with and Keyboard-display (should not??) take so much time as Adithan has already worked on the IFF Kb-d and I will be taking stuff from his code. Thanks God(and Adithan).
So much for my efficiency nowadays. But then there are good coding days and bad coding days and the past couple of weeks were bad coding weeks.
Now yes, I had been to Wadala road today morning to collect my B.A. History course material. But the person incharge said that all the material has been exhausted and asked me to come after 3 weeks to collect it when the next batch arrives. So much for the efficiency of University of Madras. And think of it...I had joined it because it's a 5 star university..Hmmm...
The urdu classes are going on fine and I am now at dvaat( phonetic sound dh).
On the way back I also picked up 'Madhushala' for Rashmi. It is certainly a very well known book as I had to tell the shopkeeper that I needed a book of Hindi poetry and he just in a flash, produced this book for me. I didn't even ask him for the book. Rashmi should be happy now. Poor thing searched all B'lore for it. So Rashmi if you're out there...SMILE and yes, HAPPY B'DAY!!
Another great thing that happened is the Basha mailed me on Thursday. I had given up his mail id for lost. But this guy got my mail id from Naina(also given up for lost) and mailed me.
I am happy that I can now be hearing from Basha & Naina frequently. two of my very dear friends. Basha says Naina is in canada now. How did I lose their ids?
Well their ids were in my Technisource mail server. When I came down here I found that I would be using another account and not Tsrc. Damn!! I lost a lot of my friends ids there.
LESSON: Send and receive personal mail only on your personal id. Avoid using your company mail for it. If
1. Your company closes shop
2. You are booted
You lose all those ids. Another thing that you could do is send all personal mail you receive on you company a/c to you personal a/c.
Well, think that should be all for now.
Now...where is Adithan?
