Demo At Fortis

Yesterday we had demo of the solution to the internal team. Still demo to the business people is yet to do. Interestingly they did not call me up for demo, that was too surprise for me. I prepared whole demo on my own. Just a day before I trained a guy from their side to explain how to operate demo. But I got a call just before meeting, please come, something is not working. I felt very nice even thought something was not working. Issue was very minor as there was not permission on that machine to install activex. One more issue eating up was with the authentications. That I seted properly and it works fine.
I personally feel whole blame to the guy who was setting demo at meeting time instead of before meeting. This is the first time they were running demo with different user and you expect such kind of authentications problems comes in pictures. But increasing your dependency on the project becomes highly vital for such things. Or else you will be ignored fully. I learnt a lot from this lesson. Bottom line is that you and you are the important, and you must appreciated when you feel that you had done great job. You deserve it Vinay....

Europe....... Still to go beyond the lines

When you achieve something in ur life then its value gets decreases and life demands more from you. It happens to me as well. What else a software engg want, a on sight, nice pack but he loose his best of life to live with his family, close friends too either. All things happen for a money. Its not the Indian economy booming, its our needs are increasing. We know, we are making mistakes but we do follow our mistakes continuously again n again. Point is what we decide to our country and making sure that we can do a bit to make our country more happening place.

Some interesting facts I saw here in the Netherlands. Few days back there was strike of the public bus services. Here strikes means don't take money from people to travel. It does not cause anything for daily routine of the people but it affects travel company. I feel we need to learn a lot from this. If same kind of strikes happen in India, we need to take auto might be.

What do u feel Europe is totally accomplish than us? Certainly answer is no. In last month there was power interrupted for an hour. Impacts of it was very serious. Train stop as they use same power to rail too. In parking area automatic control unit for checking entry pass of car stop as no power supply and cars were in the line up out side of all offices. It happens in 15 years in a time. Even after power come again it took almost two hours to start my desktop machine as there were activating all servers again. I felt that now its all in control but still problem was on while going home as train were not running properly because of morning power failure all timetable gone for a toss. So this is Europe. Nothing special all about Europe.

But there is a lot to learn from them and too implement in our country too. I am learning that things and like to do same things in India too. Let see............
