Another Trip To Hyderabad

Recruiting:

Nandan and I went to Hyderabad for conducting personal interviews. Now that we have an office in Banjara Hills in Hyderabad work is getting done a lot more smoothly. Everything is new to us and we are learning fast and I could definitely say that we are getting better at everything we are doing. There is a long, long way to go though.

My Mom's Operation:

My mom had an operation and she was in post-operative care. I could meet her only twice because visitors aren't allowed so freely. Anyway I was relieved, as I am not too keen to be in a hospital even if it is only as a visitor. She'd be back home soon and I will go to Hyderabad again to be with her. Work may or may not get done.

My dad seems to be having a good time taking care of her though. He was at the hospitals for pass couple of weeks, unshaven, sleeping in the dorm and in general being valiant. In him, I can see teenage boy rooting for his girl :-)

Microsoft (again!):

We went to Microsoft again to meet Kalyan, Vamsi, Mohit and Srinivas (all ex-Trilogians. We couldn’t meet Anuj, another ex-Trilogian).

Microsoft has a really great office and Inez will definitely have an office like that. I was telling Nandan and Pavan that we will have such an office within the next ten years. Let's see how this goes.

Change in my role:

I'm too lost in thought to be managing a 15 to 20 people organization effectively. And Nandan has been doing an excellent job ever since he joined in all the tasks that were assigned to him. So keeping this in mind, I have made some changes to the job responsibilities of Nandan and me. I will write about the same in Inez Finserve blog before EOD today.
