21st Jan = 23rd Nov

Mail came to my official inbox, I was wished by my office colleagues. Reason?? Its 23rd Nov and my "documented birthday". I surprised by all those greetings but its true that my documented aka official birthday is 23rd November. Its way years old history when I joined school and my date of birth was registered as 23rd November  and from then 23rd Nov is registered in all official docs as my birth date.


I always remember this year's documented birthday as it was my first official birthday.Not only my office colleagues Pintu Da,Atanu,Tuhin,Debabrata and Kaushik were there with my to celebrate the B day but CITRIX employees also joined @ Swrils.


Actually my real birthday is 21st January and I am looking forward to celebrate the day with friends in 2013.
So can I say 21st Jan = 23rd Nov?

Chennai-My first visit to South India

Never think of visiting southern part of India but after joining Cognizant got a chance to go to Chennai ,the capital of Tamil Nadu, on 01072012.for IT training on Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure.

It was Sunday of 1st July when office cab took me upto Dum Dum domestic airport. We had flight from Kolkata to Chennai which was departed @ 1815PM. Me and my another colleague Mr. Mithun Debnath reached in Chennai @ 2030PM. Thanks to Indigo Airlines that we reached before arrival time.Our respective cab drivers received us @ Kamraj Domestic Airport. We faced problem in communication with cab drivers as they were unable to speak in Hindi and I didn't expect better English from them.Although we managed to make them understand about our destination i.e. Shem Park guest house at Chemmenchery in Chennai.

We reached guest house after almost 1 hour journey in cab. Guest house was full furnished and living room was Air Conditioned.I slept early as I didn't want to reach late in our first day.We reached at right time but training started late @ 1130AM due to PC problem. Trainer named Sundar was very energetic and passionate about giving training.

In five days, I got a chance to visit World's 2nd longest beach i.e. Marina beach. After finishing the class, we took local bus and met Mithun's CTS friend. We three took another bus and reached Marina beach after long journey of 90 minutes. I didn't enjoyed as we reached the beach at nite.Next day we tried to visit T Nagar also but due to communication problem we cancelled the plan.On last day, office cab dropped us @ Kamraj Airport and by Indigo flight, we returned back to Kolkata on Friday 6th July.

People of Chennai are simple in outlook and girls and women wear traditional and simple clothes. Youths are not flowing with latest fashion trends.I liked the South Indian foods.Employees prefer office buses as mode of transportation and thereby there is less traffic in the OMR road and IT high way.

GOPHER:secret revealed

We technical people come across a sweet and short word that we use frequently either troubleshooting network connectivity or just adding to email asking someone to reply.

Guess what?? Its "PING". Ask techie the fullform of PING and he/she replies-"Packet INternet Gopher". We all know the meaning of words Packet and Internet but what is Gopher? Hmm..may be few knows its meaning and history behind it. Lemme share the interesting fact and meaning behind the word Gopher. Here we go:

Gopher system(or protocol) is Application layer protocol for searching,retrieving and displaying docs over the Internet. It was released on 1991 by McCahill,Torey and Linder of University of Minnesota. It is named after school's mascot and also as in an assistant who's sent to "GO FOR" things.

Last day at Energetic FRPL

I left my last company i.e. Energetic Financial Research Pvt. Ltd. on 12th May 2012(saturday) and I've joined new corporate world for new challenges with new team members and seniors.

At Pranic Healing Camp

With Team members

Those were unforgettable days with Dynamic Commodities Pvt. Ltd. and with Energetic Financial Research Pvt. Ltd.  where I met some good friends, brilliant minds and some typical corporate KIDAs. It was 20th July 2010 when I joined Dynamic Commodities Pvt. Ltd. as System Executive and I exited with same designation. Learnt new technical stuffs from Windows OS to Linux within short peiod of 2 years.

With Shiv Khera

I met good friend like Amit Kumar, Saikat Bhattacharya, Praveen Arya(who later joined Accenture), Shrovan Bhangar(who also joined C2H Accenture),Indrajit Da,Vikash Jaiswal,Vikash Kandoi,Ritesh,Sumit and talented people like Joydip Das. Apart from my good friends, I always remembers  senior people like Saibal Kanjilal(HOD),Arijit Chanda(AM),Swarnendu Deb,Seshadri S Das,Pradip Ghosh(Podu Da),Abhishek Banerjee(Notu Da),Mrinmoy Mondol("Bhai"),Debu Da,Irshad Bhai,Himadri(from client support), All HR team including Maya and Pinku,All finance team(specially Ashish ji,Rakesh and Manoj),Web development team,Pranic healing team and finally all G4S people from security to service.

During X-Mas time

I gathered loads of knowledge which helped me to developed personally and professionally. Most interesting part during my time at Dynamic and Energetic is that I,for the first time,came to know about Pranic healing. Company provides free of cost training for its employees to learn Pranic healing and its healing techniques. I got two free courses to learn i.e. Basic and Advance.Within few mothns of joining, I got opportunity to attend the well known public speaker Mr. Shiv Khera's 3 days training called 'Blue print of success' at ITC Sonar Bangla in Kolkata.Apart from learning and trainings, I enjoyed participating in Antakshari,in Pranic healing camps.

At new floor, we enjoyed a lot during Christmas. We all celebrated every event whether it is Christmas or Holi or Durga Puja.

During Picnic Party

I never forget the picnic on Jan 2011 with directors(Shridharji and Shekharji) of the company  and that cricket match where our team was winner. Although Shekharji was not with us who died on Jan 2012, his good works, his down to earth character inspire everyone to be like him. 

Whereever I go, I always carry sweet memories of Dynamic Group of Companies. May company flourish and grow more and more. Wish you all success and peaceful lives ahead.

My farewell
