uninor - I am porting my services out from you

Dear

I owe a HTC wildfire phone and bought a prepaid connection from uninor. I have always been inclined to get services from new comers. But I think I took a wrong decision this time.

Initially, I wanted internet access , all I need to do was dial *222* to get the settings on my phone. After I recharged for 90 Rs twice , I did not recieve any kind of settings, so I  called up UNINOR folks. The first one who ansered my call, told me they dont ahve any HTC wildfire internet package, but he could give me the settings. Nothing really happened then. The I again called up and told them I am still unable to access internet, this time the guy on the phone told me they HAD HTC wildfire settings and then he would apply to my phone (!!@@@$##), I hung up. I as well called up for the constant messages about UNINOR plans. they are HEAVILY IRRITATING, I wanted them to be switched off , and as well I get calls from random numbers regarding caller tunes , FYI I have noted some 15 numbers as 'DONT PICK-series' on my phone. I cant help, its heavily irritaing. Back to the issue, I was asked to send a messgae to some number to stop notifications from UNINOR, but the action is VALID only for 45 days . SUCKS MAN!!!!

and now the final straw, I dont ahve balance in my phone, my gmail services are active and UNINOR instead of blocking me from accesing internet due to low balance has restored to sending me a message every 30 secs saying I dont have adequate balance in my phone!! @#$@$#@. Exact message reads"Sorry you don't have enough prepaid account balance to start this session", I have not touched my phone nor I have opened any services, this message keeps on popping up
I am out of here! I cant stand this nonsense.

I am an INDIAN ( may be)...

or may not be.
Its hard to define what a INIDIAN really is. The one who stands for his nation or the one who says"  yaarr, hum aise hi haine, isliye toh hum alag haine, INDians aise hi hote haine, that makes us INDIA dude".

I am not a NRI ( Non Resident Indian) , who knows I might be a NRI ( Non Reliable INDIAN) if I really dont find a reason to stand up for my country when it needs people like me.

who cares, I still slogg in my cubicle, cursing Obama for trying to take me work. But did I ever ponder what might happen if he really snatches my work? hmm, I might as well  START working for myself and people around me.

I am such an INDIAN who is content and not bothered when somone addresses me as cheap labour. My same work when done at client location is a good work .

and I am might end up being such an INDIAN who doesnot want to see real picture of the nation, which is being ruled by bloodsuckers. I have stopped bargaining with autowallas, I have stopped bargaining vegetables anf fruits as I know its not their fault. Oil is being sold, vegetables are over stocked and no one is there to act.
People whom I voted , are there , but my choice turned out to be wrong. They arent there to help me, they are there to help themselves and their future generations. But who will take care of my future generation?

I want to do atleast one good thing to call myself an INDIAN, cast my vote here-http://voteforindia.org/

I want to see clean country in my generation. I dotn want to wait for 10 years for a dynasty to clense the country. I dont want to wait for same old politicains to rule us again in their least common sense oritented mental state.

I dont want to be seen as a cheap labour

I want to be treated as a citizen of this nation, I want to be treated as my part in democracy, I want to be in the revolution which will over turn the current state of nation.

I want to be an INDIAN

pedestrian plights

we have not bought a four wheler yet. In India , a 4 wheeler still seem to be reach of rich :-|, feels like. We though have 2 wheeler what obviously my Deba rides and I pillionride with him.
Now, its not about cribbing or complaining , but whenever Deba is not around, I will have to walk a little distance to get my stuff. Alright, that too is not a PITA, the real pain is when I know I will have to use the same space on road along with vehicles . You know it na.. no foot paths and blah blah blah. I have the habit of walking, I can walk 2-3 kms ( my maximum till date was a 5 km walk)with all my energy.
Once deba was around and he did take me to the shop where I can get print out. All I did was get down of his bike and  "splash!", someone from the top floor were wetting up their new wall, and I was the victim below the wall.
next time, some fcking bastard(for readers convinience I will use FB from now on) took a left turn without indicating while I was crossing the same way , and stared back to me when i shouted the exact words i used to describe him. He did give me bit of his mouth as well, but who cares- I kept walking away, feeling content of bad mouthing him.
Another incident was when i used the same words against a loser who was riding wrong side and honked at me for not letting him to. Along with FB  I as well used the phrase 'wrong side' . Again felt content and walked away. I generally dont listen back when i bad mouth someone.
Racing is so predominant :D I noticed, everyone on road wants to reach destination first , I agree destinations are different for different people, but its again destination right?
We stopped at a red signal and again another FB in a  lorry (trust me) zoomed past us and my heart slipped a beat!! WTF? he not only made me go mad but also broke all the traffic rules to zoom past by.
I still dont get why Kartikeya cant make it at F1?? we can put him on INDIAN roads for practise no???
Now , everytime I cross a road, I look in all 8 no sorry 16 including wrong sides and cross, I dont know when a auto guy driving past me spits and it ends up on my face. Neither I dont when a gadi wala will open his door so carelessly that my face becomes a 2D figure least being 3D and what more, i already experienced 'water falls ' from seocnd floor.
All we pedestrians ask for, is a safe foot path for us to walk on. Alright I understand, when government money si being eaten in scams, obvious it wont have any money to spend on people like me! sob.. sob! :(

notice

Since I am starting off with a new phase of my life in sometime and as well will be looking for new career challenges, I have decided to concentrate more on inter networking . I will be migrating the current small number of internetwork related posts on this blog, to another blog space which is already alive @http://brownbridge.wordpress.com/.

This blog will remain intact though

alright!

another self post.
if I laugh and talk - please be assured I am really enjoying the conversation
if you see a pleasant expression on my face- I have no problem talking to you
If I am bored or don't respond- I really am ! don't expect me to laugh aloud to keep you happy .symptom - i would rush the discussion and try doing "umm" or change the topic completely.
Since past few days -I am having all the weird experiences of world , where I am loosing track of myself and have to constantly remind my self what I am :-|
By the way - Don't expect me to laugh /enjoy when you are making fun of someone or cribbing or gossiping about someone. That's next to impossible for me.
and if I a pissed off too much - I wont bother to talk to you again.

are we not done?

There is a story going around - Hindus and Muslims are helping each other in building their religious places in one state of INDIA, and in another state, there is a completely different tale going on- they are killing each other over a piece of land. Why don't we just let go few sentiments, why do we even allow our emotions to take control of our sane mind and lead to such disastrous actions, why does it has to be cowardly act to let go? why cant it be an understanding act? you build a temple or a mosque how is it going to help any one? except the people who want to see their ego win?why has GOD to be amid all these chaos? he was supposed to make sure peace prevails right? so why is he being the reason for all this? Is he trying to help?

There is this nice sensible song :why does it be only a song

time to move on..

My current  work contract expires this SEP10, I need it to be extended atleast for another month for me to complete my studies, after all that was the reason I was here . I had a realisation- I will have to move on. The job what I do currently - production support of one of the IT_NETWORK system, I love it.
It involves lot of trouble shooting, analysing and the sense of happiness I achieve after I do a Root Cause analysis is enormous,but its time I move on, I will have to pass this on to someone else , I get a feeling of handing over my child to a stranger , the fear of how they would handle the system, the carefulness while giving training , at this point I compare SOFTACT as my baby, I loved taking care of it, I loved defending it and I loved getting the bugs fixed , I just did not want to give anyone a chance to complain about my baby, it needs to be perfect and one more month- I will have to hand over  my baby to some one else, its already feeling terrible and I -will be starting over all again.
Too much happening in NOV, its difficult to handle but I need to push myself to just finish them. All are important and all jobs need attention. Just a little more preservance , a little more dedication is needed.

CONFESSION - Yup! I am a weirdo

reasons: quite many actually
1. I love doing all my work by myself

 2. I love being on time , I don't like to keep people waiting for me

3.I make sure I don't lie and gather all guts to say " that was my fault"

4.I take help , I say I took help this is not my work

5. I throw waste where I have to, I don't litter the place

6. I don't cross the roads randomly

7. My reason for doing most of the things is the passion involved, be it for reading or playing or craft stuff. Not for marks / loosing weight /appreciation

8. I don't back bite /gossip

9.I try saying things as they are- without manipulation. I might end up getting rude in process, but I definitely wont go around the issue or complain to others



Seeing this - I feel I am weird as everyone else don't do it that way, I don't know I am made this way, with a skewed mind.

This was the worst experience I had
when I joined astronomy class- my house mate said " I can tell your future by seeing the palms for 10$, why did you join that expensive course"

7 things about myself that nobody knows

This is my first tag post , I have been tagged by Ankita (http://akminerva.wordpress.com/) .
It goes "7 things about myself that nobody knows"

1.I am a cleanliness freak.I hate dirty dishes, dirty rooms and cloths or infact unthrown binbags
2.I don't show that I am hurt, but I tend to be offended by many things
3.I lack any favor-ism feelings and may be that is why I don't have  many best friends, If I have coffee with you today, doensot mean I will have it tomorrow as well or you share your secret, doesnot mean i share mine too.
4.I don't like people who manipulate or not upfront. Hence end up not sharing anything with anyone, except every few people whom I end up trusting till end
5.I am not a good cook or singer.I cant just sing. its that simple and have been humiliated multiple times over phone, when people mistake me for a boy :(, due to my voice
6.A very short tempered person.
7.If I like a person, I do it the very first time I meet them, it just happens, i have never gone wrong with my first likes , rather I end up disliking people whom I initially disliked , but gave it a go.


PS: My house-mate already thinks I am a weirdo already.
