My 2016 Onam...(ഓണം 2016)

I know its getting almost one month now while sharing this post.....

But its too great still to share....

This time also i was so lucky to celebrate Onam with its full of joy.

Lets share some snaps from the moments...

 

The taste of Chennai

If you are moving to Chennai ...then you don't need to worry more about your food ...that i can guarantee you...( Please don't take this wrongly, i don't have any tie up with hotels...just joking )

Do you know why???

You will get plenty of options to choose your dishes there with outstanding taste...even i got lucky to get this experienced while i was in Chennai...

You don't need to order a costly dish to check the taste.. you can even try it from "Thairu Vada"
of less than INR 15.
"Kal dosai" and "Chatny"( spicy and coconut one ) was my favorite breakfast........that taste is still with me.

Chilly Parotta, Paneer butter Masala, mushroom fried rice,butter rotty/rice and one Lassi was our (me & my friend) dinner menu items ...   i am really missing those taste...

Please try the taste of Chennai once in life if you get a chance..

A drive with friends would always more enjoyable - A 2015 memory

There is always some thing special on a trip with friends......
I am very grateful to 2015 for holding such a memorable trip for me...
For us it was not a trip to Kodaikanal or Munnar...it was a mixture of  jokes...incidents... challenges...stories... drive...experience...etc

That days were really awesome....

My First Training Batch In Chennai - Tata Bss - One of my favourite batch...

I am very grateful to Tata Bss for giving the opportunity to train a batch in Chennai, because that was  my chance to earn some best friends there....

While beginning the NHT batch, they were just my trainees, but very soon they became my best buddies. But it is very interesting that we never went to an outing or Dinner during the training days (adhered to policy) but then also they became close to me.
Nothing was there as a barrier to stop that friendship bonding even My language, Location, Attitude,Training methods...nothing...nothing stops that.

We have enjoyed a lot in the training days, each day was very exciting and memorable. I went to my golden school days while on that time and i became one of them.

Naresh, Hari, Manoj, Gopi, Praveen, Jinithan, Kalpana, Amala, Sivaranjini, Deepa, Preethi, Janaki, Ranjitha, Kavery...etc.... I am proud to say that i have trained them..no these are my friends..that would be the better introduction for them and they deserve that.

Actually i got there a group of people who wants to become Software aspirants, Musicians, Film directors, Teachers... etc...these are there dreams.

While beginning the batch i was expected only 100 % throughput and 0% attrition from the batch as a trainer, but they have added 100 % true friendship also in my targets and i have achieved.

They are still with me as my friends and they are keeping me posted their each moments in life through their whats app group ''Tata Tigers''......

That days are beyond a post, beyond a page, beyond a blog.... i am realizing that we cannot define friendships completely...we have to feel it... 

Let me share more in coming posts... All the Best!!!

A New Year with great challenges.....

I am very excited to start my first day in 2016...

But i know i am having great challenges ahead for me in this year.....but i have decided to face the challenges with determination.

2016 is going to be great year in my life if everything goes well as i have planned.

I am prepared to work harder than 2015 to make the twist in my professional life.

Hope i can welcome 2017 with a lot of achievements.......

 

Family Life Vs Professional Life

My question is ...are you able to balance your family life along with your professional life???

I know most of the answers are NO, why??

We may have many reasons to be list out like...Unplanned weekly offs with out preferences, leaves are not getting sanctioned for special occasions, unable to spend time with family due to late night works, not able to concentrate on family matters due to work pressure....etc.

But i am not blindly telling that all the employers are belongs to the same category, but the most

All employers are aware about the situation but still how much extend they can sort it out.., the remedies for this are sleeping on company policies and manuals not on any actions...

I am sure that, the attrition of medium grade level employees can reduce if our employers are keeping this in mind.

All the Best!!!!!!!!

Festivals/Celebrations in College days have any difference??

Is our celebrations in College days have any difference??.... i can say Yes...

It may be Christmas, Birthdays, Onam, Ramzan, College fests..... that celebrations are having a tremendous feel on college days, but we will realize this only when you are away from that days... now i am realizing this...

Our friends would be the main element on our all celebrations and that would make that moments more colourful.

Some snaps from my those memories.....

2011 Onam @College

2011 Christmas@ College

A Journey of 4 Years...@ Sarabhai Institue of Science & Technology

Yes, that was a journey through the analog & digital electronics, communication devices and techniques, networking analysis, signal and image processing ...etc along with my loving friends....

I cannot consider this as a simple B tech degree course because that was a combination of friendships, incidents, commitments and celebrations...

Simply i can define: :

Bachelor of Technology (B Tech)
Duration :  4 Years
Specialization : Electronics and Communication (ECE)

Actually our college life is the best platform where we can perform, learn, identify and enjoy, that times will turn in to our most memorable days of life... yes the memorable days...

 

Main SIST building  (2012 view)

Infrastructure, facilities,faculties, students..every thing may changed for the last 3 years but still now i prefer for that olden days which i have alive in my memory.

Where you forgot to perform well in your professional life... ?

Where you forgot to perform well in your professional life... have you ever think about that??

Many times ...is it? but we won't recognize it, that is the fact.

We may got many platforms to show whom we are, but we may ignore with out utilizing it well by thinking that will get a better one later, but we will realize this as a mistake only when we are hopeless to step forward.

This is same as like building a structure, if you missed to add a building block in its relevant place then that structure might not be stable and you cannot complete the task, then you will analyze about that missing block which is the reason behind the failure.

Imagine the above structure is your career, now analyze what went wrong while building your career, have you missed some thing, if yes.. then what is that????

A professional degree, a course, training programs, communication skills, better guidance....etc

we can sort n number of answers and that will differ from person to person.

Think and try to get it corrected... only you can do it....  

Tata Business Support Services- Munnar, Kerala

As i promised earlier i am sharing some snaps of Tata Bss Munnar location...

One of the satellite center in south location, operating in a hassle-free environment

Welcome to Tata Bss Munnar

Can you believe that the below photo was captured around 2:00 PM (IST).

Parking Ground @2:00 PM covered by mist

            The below is the same above parking ground of Tata Bss , but the difference is with out mist...

How is Munnar as a work Location ? Nice but conditions apply...

I know nobody would understand what i meant, let me make it clear..

I have selected as a process trainer for Tata sky ( which is one of the best DTH service provider in India) and transferred to Munnar location from Hyderabad. This let me learn more in deep about Munnar.

We know Munnar, the part of Western Ghats mountains. Enriched the beauty by its hill stations, rich tea plantations, waterfalls...etc, yes i can read your mind i am not going to give a vast explanation about Munnar...i will come to our topic.

Around 75% of Munnar visitors should stay up to 7 days maximum, am i right?(my calculation) that means we can categorize them as tourists but remaining staying there are running their daily life which is alligned with estate jobs/local business/travels/private employees/government officials..etc , have you ever think about their life there?, their challenges?

Even i too didn't think about that till i moved to Munnar as an Employee of Tata Business Support Services. I will make it categorize.

 Challenges (for an average employee)






 Accommodation: If you are transferred to Munnar , then please make sure your accommodation on prior, if you are getting company /office owned quarters then its fine.

Transportation: If you are having your own transportation arrangements like two wheeler/car/office vehicle then the travel should become more convenient or else you have to depend shared Autos/jeep for climbing up to reach office

Rainy Days: Every one like rainy days but don't consider the rainy days are normal, that will make you wet in any way, you have to feel that continuously to admit it.

Living Cost : For a average person, please make sure that you can live and earn with the salary there, because all the above challenges will lead you to this reason: Living Cost

BUT REMEMBER IF YOU CAN MANAGE THE ABOVE CHALLENGES THEN MUNNAR WOULD BE THE BEST PLACE TO WORK.....


Because...

You can work by breathing fresh air..
You can enjoy the stunning beauty of Nature...

I know all are waiting for the snaps..i will definitely share on my next post...


All the best..

TATA BUSINESS SUPPORT SERVICES - My first corporate experience

I have joined in Tata - Bss as an executive for Tata Power Solar , a pilot process of the company..


 Office located at Kukkatpally, Hyderabad area, i was little bit tensed because that was my first corporate days.. but i was lucky by getting 4 best friends as my colleagues ...Chanukya, Fazilath, Pradeep and Jaspreet..

Our training days were really interesting, we trained from Bangalore too, actually that included a visit in manufacturing units of Tata Power Solar (TPS) same as like an industrial visit ...

The job tied me well with the solar sector of India on that times and i was very eager to take new new responsibilities in my job... I was mostly assisted with TPS customers who are under Kerala Govt's ANERT scheme and Tamil Nadu Govt's TEDA program.

Got opportunities to handle Inbound & Outbound calls, Critical Escalations, Emails, Report Publishing, Client handling, Process document preparation....etc

Customers became familiar with my name and they are started contacting us by asking my name to assist them on each times, truly that was an awesome moment...
 just think .. peoples whom you are not yet met directly were became familiar with your name and enquring your presence to assist them to your colleagues through an all India help line number.

We faced some challenges also while on that time with our field support time by delay in attending complaints on customer premises, but i think that made us to concentrate more in process.

Its the time to work not for excuses

Yes this is true.. when i started following this in my professional life there after i never got fired for excuses on duties...

may be my responsibilities were comparatively small, but it is mine..

I never carried my personal issues to office, always i parked that outside to concentrate on job, but i never forgot to take it back once i have done with my duty.

these are not my tips...these are facts...

A 4 Apple to Newton's Laws...

We cannot read a sentence with out words...we cannot read a word with out letters...

that means we cannot tell about our college with out school...

So lets begin from "A 4 APPLE"...my sweet school days...



I am very excited to write about my school days, because it will make me pass through that beautiful memories which cannot come back again in real.

that uneven paintings...the amazing games...the first friends....

But i feel regret on one thing, the photos of my primary school days...which i don't have... hmm i know technologies had taken long time to touch our life, but today's generation is lucky in this.

till 4th standard, life was running with a regular timetable..

 From 5th to 7th standard "Government U.P School Nedumoncave" my territory - An area of friendship, study,...etc.
