TRAINING AT UVW

Day 1…All set for another new experience… INDUSTRIAL n all … Seems to be fun … At least from the outside…

All ready at 9 am… Awaiting the call… Waiting to know the reporting place…And the lady calls at 1015 am

Me: Hello
Lady: Hi. Mr. XYZ is out of the station, I am trying to contact him and will let you know about the place most definitely by 1 pm..
Me: Yes Mam. Thank you.

Ok… cool… Chill… No work in the Morning…So I started reading a book … DECEPTION POINT…

A couple of hours into the book…. Interesting…I don’t want to go today for intern…As soon as the thought comes into my mind… The phone rings …L

Me: Hello
Lady: Hi. Just got off the phone with Mr. XYZ. He said that you can take a day off.
Me: Ok. But IIT wants us to join in from 12th May
Lady: We will still mention the date of joining as May 12. Is that ok
Me: Yes. That will be good.

Kiddin’ me … that’s the best thing:-D

Now, time for Dan Brown…J


Day 2:
Get a mail from the Lady … Report at Sarai Kale Khan … 9:30 am sharp
Alrite…I will be there

Meet the Sr. Gen. Mgr. Of the company… The mail read

9:30am : I have arrived

Now have to wait for the other guy to reach …comes the usual 15 mins late

Ok … So whr is the mgr ??? Should be here shortly says the receptionist … Please wait outside.

A couple of hours go by …then the receptionist comes out… “aap log chill maaro… saab kal aayenge… kal subah 10 baje aana”

Cool … another day .. Home… and Dan Brown is out again… becoming so very interesting


Day 3 :

Reach the trng at exactly 10 am.. Find my co-internee waiting !!!
The weather is good … pleasant .. maybe some rain round the corner…
.
.
A rain-storm is brewing… winds gushing past the office… Its bcmng increasingly dangerous in here …

The rain falling…getting heavier every second… we are trapped inside… feels like a hurricane or smthng out there …

After a few hours of waiting … rain finally stops… and …guess what … mangr nt cmng today as well … so another day to chill-out… J


Day 4:

Finally … we meet up with Mr. AS and he sends us to Sector 94 – Noida….
Says Leave now – reach there by 2 pm

Now… on way…we hit the Greater Noida Expressway… What a road…. Esp for a person who loves to drive … PARADISE, I must say… Boards fly by on the side

Sector 92 … sector 93 …sector 93 A…. we are getting close … J
Then… next board …sector 105… next one …sector 97…. Something isn’t right …
Newaz… we continue to drive on the paradise… zooming at 150 + J

After 15 mins… we enter GREATER NOIDA .. clearly … we have come wrong :-P

Now… Turn around…head back ….

See a police car at a distance … so we stop and ask him..

Me : Bhaiya, yeh sector 94 kahan padega ??

Police : Kunsa ????

Me: 94 ..94… chauranve…

Police : chiyaanve ???

Me : nahi nahi … chauranve …..94

Police : Chauranve… yahaan se ulti taraf .. yeh saamne purra hi chauranve hai … ulte-haath ghoom jaon …

Me : achcha … yahaan se udhar ghoomne ki turn kahan hogi ??

Police : yahaan se ulte haath ko ghoom jaon aur aage sadhak ulti ghoomegi ….

Me (puzzled … to take a U-turn … go left …. What’s goin on ???? ;-P ) : thik hai … dhanyvaad

But … as it turned out… the police guy was wrong… there were no turns ..

And .. just as we reached back to where we started…. We saw it /… Sector 94 !!!! and GIL written everywhere…. After driving for 60 kms ….

Newaz …. Finally … we made it … But the concerned person was not there…
His deputy gave us a set of 120+ drawings … told us to go thru them….they were of the various parts used to make the entire metro bridge …
So, we pretended to be studying them…. Our speed was incredible … we were through in about 30 minutes J

And then … we were off again…. Another BUSY day at work !!! ;-P

DAY 5 :
Finally…. The last day of the first week was here !!! It had been tuff…pretty busy … ;-P

Also, deception point was just awesome … and The Client was also becoming interesting… Decided to take The Client with me to work … And Boy-oh-boy… it was one of my better decisions !!!!

The plant manager was not there today as well … was running a bit late … deputy asked us to wait … and YES .. I struck gold… the book was out in no time J


Hours passed by … but there were no signs of the manager … finally at about 3 pm, the deputy asked us to put on our helmets and take a walk… look around the facility….His timing could not have been worse …. Firstly … the book … the thought of closing it was heart-braking.. Secondly.. the temperatures outside were soaring … 43 degree Celsius !!

But … we had to go anyway … had to show something in the weekly report… so we went on a round … and were back in 20 minutes…
The deputy almost yelled … and took us out again !!! ;-P

He personally explained everything … and took about an hour or so …
But finally our ordeal came to an end !!!

THE FIRST WEEK WAS FINALLY OVERRRRRRRRR ...PHEWWWWWW !!!…..very busy & tiring … ;-)
