So its 1 month in a new organization... Got few friends (very few compared to my Previous company). During this one months wat all I did here??? I had lunch here (priority basis food comes first for me always), I chatted online and offline.. wrote tests, cleared them (yes I kinda master the task of writing exam no matter wat the subject is) I attended Trainings
God Trainings are so so a no no for me. First day was ok, not that the trainer was good/good looking I had the excitement of being in the org for the first time. Curious to know more kinda. Second day I realized, ALL IT COMPANIES HAVE THE SAME PORTFOLIO. So was like the person training will again say good things abt the company that I doubt even exists virtually.
Then came the torture. Finance basics training. I know the company pays me I have an account in a bank and a debt card; I draw money, Pay bills. That’s all is my relationship with Finance. Suddenly I was forced to know more abt it as the domain demands it and worst was I had to clear a test (max 3 attempts) abt the same. My state was like cycle tube without air... tussssssssssssssssss!!! I felt basically it’s a dry subject during the training(but after that when I actually studied it, it was quiet ok for me.. thanks to the sums part of it, without numbers I find every subject boring)
They had shortage of trainers or so. Hence they used to play a video of one person teaching with PPT (the person was not in the frame only voice). That was the first day. I was little tensed 'if I flunk. OMG. I have to get to know wat it is' kinda. I started concentrating, latter I tried concentrating, finally I got tired of concentrating and I gave up. The PC I was given had no internet. I searched for games and I found it. Thank God. I helped the monks and monsters cross the river, Caught eggs, Shot gooses (Animal rights people it’s virtual. So plz spare me), Killed terrorist, played tennis. But the best was a color ball game. I don’t know its name. I had a rage to create high scores in it. In short I somehow sat through the session. Then that evening there was one guy who’ll clear our doubts on the training stuffs we had. He asked a few question I was sitting as if the question are not for me. Few Finance folks were answering. He gave 2 sums to solve. I too took down the question never bothered to solve it.
Next day again video training full day. So I again caught eggs, Shot gooses, Color ball game, Tennis and a new one sketch ur boss, I found gender discrimination there. Boss can be even a lady. I had a big time issue with the 2 lady bosses I had. So that game was of no fun to me. I called few friends from previous org and started chatting. A friend was getting engaged too. So a lot of interesting thing to talk abt. Somehow that day was done.
Next day again half day video training and the rest half interactive. In the interactive session I was sitting in the second row since no one had bothered to sit in the first row. I was virtually sitting in the first row. The person was explaining things well. I understood few things also. He used to ask few question say yes/no kind, and look at my face. I had a plastic face then (no expression). I was not nodding my head in acceptance or the other way. The man gave me this look for 5-6 times then he ignored me. I felt pity for him.
In training hall we’ll find so many people. The trainer classifies then as Listeners, Non listeners and no questions from them don’t listen but ask questions. But as a trainee I see a lot of categories.
• Sleep off types... I don’t care who feels wat abt me... I’m too tired to know kinds.
• Sleepy but have not lot it to the sleep... If u manage to find someone of this type in the class trust me u’ll be having fun. They are feeling sleepy but try to be awake for the sake of may be the trainer or to avoid attention from other trainees who’ll start giggling.
• Lost types... One who’s completely lost and gone to swizz gardens running there into the arms of Shahrukh Khan and suddenly Shahrukh utters ur name and ask u to stand up… bang the head.. Scene shifts quickly to the class room and Shahrukh turns to old prof.
• Half lost type... They’ll simply keep nodding their head in acceptance (only acceptance) they’ll be off the place in their mind.. Wat to cook 4 dinner today? That lady said this... wat might be meaning by that exactly... I’m Losing a lot of hair... Sachin should have got that ball to the boundary... My kids score is not that good… and all possible things.
• Restless kinds... they keep on shifting their position on the chair... lean back once lean forward once... checking mobiles for sms... checking mails..
• Searching for interesting stuffs... If the subject is not making interesting... look at the tutor’s nose tip... funny gestures... count the repeating word by him say number of “Oks”... Number of “Let’s see”... Look for the “sleepy but have not lost it to sleep” kinda and show the discovery to others…
• Last but not the least... the one who sit there for actual purpose...
Now which one I belong??? It’s obvious the Searching for interesting stuffs…
My thesis is of no use to anyone. Still any more categories that I have missed can be brought to my notice here, but still the thesis will be useless :P
