Examine what is said, not her who speaks

I'm still in Gurgaon, working. It's been more than a month since I left home to hunt for more work.. thankfully, I seem to have succeeded and made some good contacts too. Thus, I'd say it's not a wasted trip.
Not to mention of course that I got to spend time with my man.

It's been terribly hot the last few days, almost a week. The temperature went up to 44 degrees and felt like 47 degrees. I felt roasted despite the fact that I never went out in the sun. It's the heat that makes you house a furnace, never mind the AC.

However, today seems to be a much better day. Clouds have come in since yesterday night, halting temperature rise and getting the weather to cool down a bit. They're predicting a dust storm with rains today evening. It will most definitely be a relief!

God is being merciful I think, since He knows it's my birthday today. I've been having a lovely time since midnight last night. I cut the cake that he'd brought and am going to wear my birthday gift today evening.

I just hope this happiness I feel today stays all the year round.. Amen.

I wish you all a happy weekend then and leave ya'll to lovely weather in your countries.

Hugs!

and I think it will carry me on towards my 32nd birthday on the 27th of this month.

No rest for the wicked as they say and that's how it's been for me. Doesn't mean I'm reaping money yet but I hope that happens soon with all this hard work I've been putting in since the last three weeks. This week has been full of meetings until now and it seems that the trend will continue all this week.

In the meanwhile, I'm supposed to decide and let know what do I want for my birthday as a gift. I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions?

To continue with the work saga... next week Monday, I'm going up the mountains again, to a place called DEHRADUN where I must visit a center and train their agents on telephone etiquettes.

It seems I must work hard to towards teaching how to speak politely to the customers. Customer care agents these days seem to have become rude and abusive the proof of which can be seen anytime one calls one of the telecom services like Vodafone or Airtel or Tata Indicom. Even bank customer service executives seem to have become rude and brash. It is as if customers don't matter anymore!! Darn if I'll take that laying down!! Thus my decision- every agent who works for my clients will learn telephone etiquettes. If they can't be polite, they're not the agents I want.

Apart from that, I plan to go for a bit of flea market window shopping this weekend. I know I know, you're suprised. Flea market and windown shopping? Well, you'd be surprised to know that in the flea market here, the prices are on at par level as any good boutique or shop in a mall!!!! The last time I visited one of these markets, there was not a single product which was for less than Rs. 1000 (around 12-14 EUR). And this was just the beginning. *siggh* I remember the time at saturday flea market in Bremen where I bought my bicycle for that amount, lovely home dresses for 2 EUR, CDs for 1 EUR....... wish I was back there.

However at the moment, it seems I'd have to postpone my plans to come to the EU since I do not want to come back without a good job on hand. I've had some offers in the last few weeks but none have been good enough. There have been job offers here in India as well. Am in a fix at the moment. You see, if I accept a job here, I won't get an easy job. It would definitely be a top management level job that will requirea commitment for at least a year from me.

And I most definitely DO NOT want that. Simple reason being- my family, that will keep on urging me to get married. I'm sure you would have heard of this before- "Dearest, you're 32 now. When do you plan to get married?"
I don't blame them. After all, they are my family. They want to see me happy and content in my life. I keep on trying to make fun of this issue; take it lightly by telling them that they want to see me blissfully happy, married to a man who could take care of me and my whims. *sniggers*.. and all I want is some time to think before I reach that stage where I am ready to make him miserable.

Not but seriously, I don't think it is the right time and so the escape route must be prepared.

Basta! Enough of that. Time I went to sleep. Et voila, wishing everyone in the blog land a very good evening/morning depending on the region and country. Stay happy and stay smiling!

Hallo hallo to everyone on blogland! Hope all is merry in your life.

I've been away as usual.. traveling again. This time, it has been a tour of the North of India, to a place called Mohali. It is situated in the State of Punjab(yes, that's where you can get the best of Chicken dishes as well as Paneer) and is full of people who are polite, well mannered and shy. At least in this part of the State, I find them to be so. I've been here three days now and I wish I had more time to visit all those places mentioned here on the link.

Am here on business so can't sit long.. but I am hoping that when I reach Delhi tomorrow, I'd be sitting at my bf's place and writing a detailed account. After all, there won't be a single soul to disturb me.

So long and hear from ya soon!
