Me (My Work)

Its holiday season out here, giving me enough time for writing my blogs.
Though my haircut saloon seems to be making a point to prove I guess. No appointments and whenever I go there without one with a hope that he would not turn me away, it greets me with a board saying "We are Closed". This has happened 3 times in a row.

I work for a Retail client, and holiday season is considered to be the most hectic for them. We call it the Peak, as the system reaches to its full capability/capacity.
But out here in IT office in Kentucky, the "peak" seems to have an altogether different meaning. Its peak time for no work all play, peak time for taking all the offs u want, its peak time for parties, etc., etc. Me being in prod support, I have to be on call. But except for that odd call, life seems to be going on smoothly rather cruising on smoothly, except when some bug-fix or development issue is assigned to U that acts as an odd bumper.
How does a typical day begins out here................
Get up at 8-9-10-11( whatever time suits U :) ), as U have to be in office by 12:30.
Once in office crib about evrything that is under the sun, as if U are the only positive thing around. Typical work constitues writing shell scripts, sqls, code reviews and a bit of coding.
This was the same work I used to do at offshore, but out here the pressure is more. By pressure, I mean value addition to whatever u deliver:)
Return home at around 6 or 7 then lie around, watch TV, roam to nearby places..............
Off-late, I have started the GMAT prep so trying to keep myself busy with it.

I shall try to be more regular with my blogs, for now
sigining off in Calvin style...............
"I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul............................."- Calvin
I must add, so should all.
