Day 20

We had a new faculty joining in.. This time for HRM... an elderly, spectacled , fellow.... Resembled the majestic Roll Royce Silver Phantom.... Well, i had to bestow that honour on him...given his energy, enthusiasm & exuberance... He has travelled far & wide; as part of his academic lecture series programs around the globe. The best part was, I somehow got a feeling, he was talking on the same wavelength... & had a breezy approach to teaching....A trait common to all the 3 faculties that i have encountered. However i had to give a cynical reply to his query on relevance of HR.. Fr HRD as a function was a bromide & had no relevance. Thankfully, he took that staement in his stride. Well, looking forward to hearing from the Silver Streak in the days ahead.

What does one do, if a vendor gives a verbal commitment & later backtracks.... I would give him a GPL & that's what i did... well, in the bargain, the remainder of the day got jacked. Well, this bloke who appeared to be a very friendly chap; began acting strange @ the nth moment, when it was time to deliver... The least he could have done was pass on relevant info. People who don't have the courtsey to do such a simple act shld never be entertained. Lesson... Smoothtalkers should never be relied upon... For they haev the ability to pass on all the crap except what is needed. Bloody ASSHOLES....

Day 21:

My GYM schedule in Belapur has finally started. Fr 100 bucks a month, i couldn't have asked fr more.. A neat but tiny place with all basic equipments..... The senti mujik though seems out of place.... As for the gym instructor, the poor fellow was seen snoraing his way to glory ..even when i left the place.

Today, a new vendor was identified & the order given. He was a far cry from the earlier nutcase. Though the cost has escalated, relaised that the new model of IBM is lighter & has higher memory.... Need to see the damn thing, befr passing any further judgement. A new vendor implies, another round trip to Goregaon & the bank.... Man o man... bank formalities are a pain ... Customer care... it is more likes Chinese torture with a gregarious smile....Phew..... This paper, that paper, this zerox, that sign....

After a brief encounter, zipped off to Borivili to handover the bicycle to my frnd . Hope to pick it up from him sometime in Feb.... Cycling in the chilled out climate is not good fr my system.... It was a refreshing 30 min ride... Felt like heaven to be driving the Flying Pigeon after so long a time...

Now, time to dwell into my accounts & economics gyan....
