Tete-a-tete with a certain Mr. Pitter!

ALL my Ntrance friends are going to love this, er maybe :)

“U never address a person by saying Mr. and his first name for Gods sake! Its always Mr.Last name… Do I need to teach you that as well now? God!” He thundered… His wrath rained upon poor old Snehal for the second time in the past two hours. She was white knucled, trembling and mad at the same time! I mean they were all of afraid of him weren’t they? Justin Pitter! QAL, Hitler for others was one of the nicest persons I have worked with. Here are some excerpts from an interview I conducted only recently…
DS: Mr.P how does life do u then?
JP: It does me like it does u don’t it boy?
DS: Do u miss the old days at Ntrance?
JP: Course I do, I miss all the fun and the lovely people (sniggers) I spent some of my most memorable days in Helpline, and met some brilliant people as well, take u for instance!
DS: Praise from JP? What’s the catch there Mr.?
JP: No catch, good mood today, the vodka was exceptional tonight..
DS: Aah, so now we know.. Anyway what was the most forgetful incident while u were at Helpline?
JP: Well there wasn’t any such incident, but something worth remembering was when Neil had borrowed my Kurta for a photograph and then left me without even a shirt in the mens room for over 40mins! I had to explain to every single person who walked in what I was doing half naked in there(smiles)
DS: Oh yes… I remember taking the mickey out of u then, and of course when Nicky and Laura had come down, we just gave u a right hard time, that was fun.. So is it true that U slept with one of em?
JP: Well, I shall leave that for you to guess, people are not going to believe me anyway, and not that I care in the first place, so No Comment!
DS: Very well then, who according to you was the most gorgeous babe we had in the team?
JP: Ah nice question, but no one really fit my bill.
DS: Allright, we know we caused you some considerable strain while we were being accredited, who was worse of all?
JP: Snehal, has to be her.. no offense though, but I seriously doubted the fact that I was a good trainer then ;P
DS: Err.. yes we all know that to be a widely accepted fact don’t we?
JP: Of course, of course.. and I hate to break it to you but I need to get back to work now, nice chatting, bye.
DS: Very well Mr. P, have a good day and thank you for your valuable time. :)

Dhruva v/s "The form"

I, recently having tricked someone into employing me, am going to get paid for my efforts. Hence I find the need to open an account in a bank. I have a wide choice of 2 banks to open an account with, namely HDFC and Axis bank. Excellent. Since I tend to run as far away from any geometrical sounding terms, naturally I shirked away from Axis and went in for the other choice. That is where it all began. How hard can it be to get yourself a silly piece of paper called an “ account opening form ?” Well the answer is Very with a capital V! My poor mum was the first person to have unsuccessfully tried to acquire the said form; she came back flustered not having remembered the name and address of my company. And hence I was personally required to get short leave and get myself a form. Fair enough, I did so at the next opportunity I got. Asked my HR executive where the nearest HDFC bank outlet was and I was on my way. Alas I was informed that the systems in the bank were down and ...

Bad Motoring.. An out of the box solution!

If you live in Pune, or anywhere in India for that matter you may have come across dozens of people who flout traffic rules, park haphazardly, or drive or ride with a complete disregard to their own wellbeing or the safety of pedestrians and other road users. Tell you what, I have an ingenious plan to get rid of all the people in my city who either drive badly, park badly, violate traffic rules and generally piss you off. Here is how I plan to go about it. Step 1:We start a fund to support this drive. Step 2:We buy me an old T72B Russian Made battle tank. Step 3:I either bulldoze/flatten or use my bazooka to get people to comply. Its going to work, trust me. And this is the best solution, well apart from having the Italian Mafia marksmen shoot them down on all days excepts Tuesday if it happens to be the 29 of any month, however its not going to be as entertaining while dealing with the problem. Be it the student cyclist or the bloke on the motorcycle, the cute girl on her scooty, ev...

Microlearning!

If you are familiar with the story of David and Goliath, you would probably know that David was tiny while Goliath was a giant. However, David with his slingshot brought down the mighty giant. Moral of the story: A small but effective solution can overcome even a mighty problem.                 Coming swiftly to the point now, I propose that the exact same principal can be applied to adult learning. Micro learning - training broken down into short yet informative bits has proven to be beneficial to the learning needs of the millennials. This concept embraces teaching a concise topic which is then tested or applied immediately afterwards.                 Research suggests that 90% of all information taught in a traditional classroom setting is lost within 12 months!  To counter this, micro Learning rejigs your training progr...
