Me:Hello,is this Izee..
Female voice:Yes, it is,how can i help you?
Me:I read an ad in the paper about a vacancy in your firm
F-V:Plz be online, will tranfer the call to concerned person
A long music goes on and on...
Female 2:Hello, how may i help you?
Me:I read an ad in the paper about a vacancy in your firm
Female 2:Yes we do, whats your experience?
Me:3 months
F2:Great,whats your profile?
Me:HR Recruitment
F2:Ok.How soon can you join us?
Me:Immediately..
F2:We have certain conditions for employees
Me:Like?
F2:You would have to submit your original certificates with us and these would be returned
only after 4 months.You are not given any kind of leave for the first 3 months
Me:(Bullshit)...Leave criteria is fine, but not okay with the certificate episode
F2:Can you talk to the manager incharge and get things clarified?
Me:Sure, can you give me his number?
I make a note of the number and call up the esteemed manager
Me:Hi,is this Mr.X
He:Yes
Me:Hi,i am May here and i happened to read about a vacancy in your concern
He:Yes(and he goes on to mention the conditions for employees) and this is India's no.2 firm.
We are the best
Me:I am okie with it but due to personal reasons, i would be requiring a days leave
after a month
He:Days leave would be impossible to be given since we have leave policy applicable
Me:What would you do if an employee falls sick?Would you ask him to work inspite of his illness?
He:Is the way you talk to a manager?
Me:You are not my boss as yet
At this point i guess,the mighty manager of India's No.2 firm was infuriated and couldnot handle my question and said, "Why don't you find a job in your native?"
Is this the way a manager is supposed to talk to his candidates at the very first instance?Is it this kind of an attitude that makes Izee No.1?

How time changes..
I have been away from blogging for a while, you know why? I have taken up a job very dear to me. I have started up as a HR and the interesting part is i am liking it. I have always wanted to interact with people of different mindsets and of different ages and my present job is giving me that contentment if not fully, a little, yes.Since am new to this branch i have a long way to go and i understand coming to any conclusion is very early with the time i have spent in HR.Just keeping my fingers crossed for now.

Nokia 5130 or Nokia 5310 or Nokia 7210 Supernova
I have been planning to buy a cell phone from quiet sometime and i guess now is the time appropriate to have one and begin the new year on a fresh note. I have three models on my mind:
a)Nokia 5130
b)Nokia 5310
c)Nokia Supernova 7210
Looking out for a phone which would have all the features majorly picture clarity and good music player, yet which is lighter on the pocket.
But in a confused state as to which one to actually choose from. Recommending or sharing your experiences with these phones is highly appreciated:)
If not the above models, which other phones would you suggest that would fall under my umbrella?
Happy New Year 2010
A year goneby welcoming another year
Days gone, Months gone, Gone is the year
Another New Year is here.....Happy New Year - 2010

Flowers
Flowers found in my backyard
Rose
A rose is a perennial flower that contains over 100 species and comes in a variety of colours. Most are native to Asia, with smaller numbers of species native to Europe, North America, and northwest Africa. Roses are best known for their flowers. Roses are popular garden shrubs, as flowering shrubs. They are also grown as cut flowers, as one of the most popular and commonly sold florists' flowers.
Anthurium
Anthurium belongs to the arum family.Anthuriums are one of the most popular tropicals with a long vase life of about six weeks and even more depending on the variety and season. They are grown for their brightly colored flower spathes and their ornamental leaves.
Growing Anthuriums
Anthuriums can be grown by 4 methods. They are by Vegetative reproducation, Seeds, Tissue culture, and Fertilization. * Anthuriums grow on a wide range of soil types ranging from sandy loams to heavy clays. * Anthuriums need a highly organic soil with good water retention capability and good drainage. * A well-drained soil is important to prevent rotting of stems and roots. * Anthuriums should be planted in raised beds of 1.3 to 2 metres wide and 20 cm deep. * Anthuriums should not be planted more than 5 cm deep, as deep planting results in rotting of stems and roots. * Stake the anthurium after planting for support. * Water the anthuriums immediately after planting. * A layer of coconut husks, semi-rotted wood, or sugar cane baggasse may be used. * Mulching is needed for the anthuriums plants. * Anthurium plant roots grow into the mulch and spread.
Anthuriums plant care
* Remove dead & unsightly foliage and faded or brown flowers. * Use a peat moss base. * Anthuriums need a high light, but not direct sunlight. * Water your anthurium thoroughly, but allow it to dry slightly between waterings. * Do not over-water the anthuriums as it may cause root damage and yellowing of the leaves. * Fertilize anthurium plant about every other month. * Avoid draughts, and strong temperature fluctuations. * In winter anthurium plants need a 6 weeks of rest period at a 15°C with little water. This allows the plant to flower profusely again in the following season.

Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani
Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani is a movie flowing on the lighter side with total fun. Chocolate boy Ranbir Kapoor has proved to be a versatile actor yet another time and Kats is as amazing as ever.
But the only area which i would point out would be the role of Salman Khan.Was that actually needed? And happy club? How does the synonym 'Happy' apply to the group?
I give this film a 7 on a scale of 10.
