I asked my Branch Head today. Sir as you know i have been working here from past one month.. . You keep yourself in place of mine and think But what if you get a offer from a big company ready to hire you, telling you that you quit your current company and be ready to join us, giving you decent incentives BUT at the same point you know that the work environment currently where you are working is just superb with superb people around and your age is just 22 how will you make a decision? He said its easy himanshu if you are getting good paid over there and it’s a huge company i will quit the current job and be ready to shift as i want to experience more challenge and want to grow. I said ok sir but what if the current company is close to your heart what if the people around them are really sweet and close to your heart… how will it affect your decision then…. He said Himanshu first of all big company means big challenge means huge experience obviously the present company where we are working currently will always be close to my heart but you have to think about the future too… Will i be able to cope up? Will i be able to work? Do i have a chance in future? These questions need to be answered first and then the decision will take place automatically. I said sir you have still not understood and answered my question? My question was simple Will you choose Money or Work Environment at a young age. Well i am confused to the core? I have still 11 months to go but what after that or even if i don’t have 11 months and if i get an offer from a big company what do i do? What is the main criteria? All this questions are just spinning around in my mind. The difficult task is to answer all these questions Logically. Well i have left in on God he will do the best.

Well yes we all know how is it when there are no rickshaw’s on the roads of mumbai on a weekday where everyone is rushing for work. Yesterday 22/06/2010 there was a rickshaw strike demanding increase in their meter which they achieved in doing so successfully. Yes the minimum reading in the meter which was 1.00 was costing us Rs.9 and from 22/06/2010 it is going to cost us Rs.11. I mean an increase by Rs 2. Well we can’t blame them everything has increased be it our Vegetables in the market from the Milk we drink. Well i am telling you my personal experience i took an rickshaw from Mithibai College in Vile Parle to Oshiwara in Andheri(W) these places are situated in the suburban part of mumbai. The actual reading which came on the meter was 39 i.e. Rs.38 according to the previous reading but today with change in price he took Rs 49 instead i.e. nearly 50 bucks. I couldn’t help it i had to pay him that much as he din’t have the new tariff rate card and demanded that much. I din’t know that the price change has been applied from yesterday itself. He just demanded Rs 49 and i had to give him. It seems that the rate card will be issued in next 2 days as what the rickshaw driver said. But just so that you guys do not get a situation like me so please pay the rickshaw driver Rs 2 or max to max Rs 3 extra than the normal fare. If they ask more ask for the Fare Card. Rs 2 or Rs 3 won’t make a difference but these days rickshaw drivers have become too smart and have become a superb con man. Remember ask for the Tariff or Fare Card and then pay. It’s someone’s hard own money.
What food are you eating?

I know many of you might be a food lover just like i am and besides being a food lover many of you eat outside and love outside food, be it the delicious chicken biryani or butter chicken or any of the delicious vegetarian meals. Well we all love that don’t we? Well here comes the point that i wanted to share this small story a hard hitting reality with you all. My office colleague used to work in well known pizza joint, yesterday during lunch break we sat together for lunch and were just discussing the various food menu’s we all like and suddenly this colleague of mine said that whenever they used to make pizza’s the toppings especially they used to taste it first and then keep on the pizza for the customer’s to eat. That is the toppings first used to go in their mouth and from their used to be decorated on the pizza afterwards. Yuck!!! and this is not the only thing he shared with me there is more, you guys think you eat veg by not touching non veg or literally not eating non veg well that is all false he told me that even the vegetables etc for the pizza’s were kept with the chicken which was almost 5-6 days old. I can’t even name this as stale food. Calling it a stale food is an understatement. Yuck!!! once again. Now tell me after reading to all this will you stop eating outside food? Difficult question to answer isn’t it? For a matter of fact even i won’t be able to resist eating outside food for long. But i am in a fix after this hard hitting story. Home Food or Outside Food? I have no answer for this as of now. But the voice of my grandmother echoes inside my mind after this story that voice is ‘stop eating outside food’.

Well recently i was off this wordpress site of mine for a little while, totally fascinated with the new micro – blogging site named twitter.com. Was updating on twitter daily until recently i found out that twitter gives you the authority to write your mind for just 146 characters and wordpress gives you the authority to write errrr….i can’t even count or imagine. Well people say that celebs and other sports stars are on twitter and you also come to know what’s happening in and out in their personal life and professional life, but hey guys are you making an account because you are into blogging or just because celebs and sport stars are in twitter. Well i think i can answer this question i think around 85% people must be switching to twitter from facebook because their favorite sports stars or celebs are there. Well to tell you frankly it did hit me to be in touch with my favorite sports star and celebrity but the purpose for me joining twitter changed which i din’t like and which was not my motive. So i am coming back to my own self now that is i am going to start writing over here on my personal page and my personal website you can say that is himanshuparmekar.wordpress.com. Enough of that micro blogging site, i am going to start writing over here again share pictures if i can and will keep you posted on what’s going around me and in my life. Thank you all and a very big sorry was off this completely but i assure you from now on i won’t. Thank you Guys.
