On the threshold.
The door is half open (See, I am an optimist after all, else the door would be half close).
The lights are half bright (Optimism beyond doubt).

The point has been finally established that Dhi Only One is an optimist.

Sitting here and waiting for this planet to complete its daily rotation.

Too many things on my agenda for this week.
So many that I am afraid I will end up spilling a lot over to the next week.

Primarily, I have been stretching myself a lot to pack in as many things as possible within 24 hours.
Result: A tired Dhi Only One with droopy eyes.

The play is coming out really well, although I still haven’t quite figured what exactly the end of the play suggests.

Personal opinion: The Bangla version of the play is far better than the English version.
The lead actors in the Bangla version are way ahead in terms of their acting when compared to their English counterparts.

I love the music played when the play starts.
There is a lot of smoking on stage and off stage.

My role requires me to smoke on stage.

The planet continues to whirr.

Dhi Only One has signed up for a day long training in golf.

I am really excited about it.
Not that I really like golf or follow it regularly.
I believe that its a very classy game and should be a part of Dhi Only One’s repertoire.
It gives a very corporate-y feeling, if you know what I mean.

Ladies and gentlemen, Dhi Only One shall soon be at par, if not above.

A product that I have been involved with has got released into the market.
As part of the user manual and other technical guides, we provide the technical specification for the product.
This includes the operating temperature range and other related details.

One such attribute is the operating altitude.
This gives the altitude range in metres within which the product can be used.
Now, its upper limit is some xxxx metres.

After reading this particular piece of information, a customer got back with a comment, “Oh, so this means that your product will not run in Colorado?”.
(Colorado, seemingly is at a much higher altitude than the specification!)

I found that funny and interesting.

Dhi only one jumps tracks.
(Track1 —–jump—-> Track 2)

A normal software company in India, on an average, charges its phirang customers at the rate of $20 per hour.

Now thats around Rs. 900 per hour. (1$ being approximated to Rs. 45)
8 hours a day = Rs. 7200 per day.
5 days a week = Rs. 36000 per week.
4 weeks a month = Rs. 1.44 Lakhs per month.
12 months a year = Rs. 17.28 Lakhs per year.

If you are an IT professional and drawing a salary of anything more than 17.28 Lakhs per annum, you are causing a strain on your company because its paying you more than what its earning through you.
Your company is doomed.

Track 2 is nice.

Happy.
Joyful.
Indulgent.
In love with life.

PS: Since blogs have suddenly got blocked at my workplace (and since my internet connection at home is broke) I cannot read your comments ladies and gentlemen. But that should be a temporary matter.

If there is one thing that I would like to do right now, is to set off to Goa, check-in myself into a luxury hotel and settle down near the pool with a book (in all probability the Mahabharat).
Guys, as part of the road trip, we should not attempt to trek and do all that adventure crap.
Instead, we shall kill time at some decent hotel, read a book or two and chat around.

Currently, I am waiting for some meeting to start.
Its well past the time to leave office.
