SA bits 56 - I've been neglecting this blog..

My apologies to my family whom I know would look forward to any news & postings here. I've been very busy at work hence nothing really interesting was happening which explains the lack of postings. But I'm taking this opportunity now to update this space.

What's been happening you might ask? Growing my own spring onions. Yes, it has been that dull..But it's really part of cost cutting :P I always never manage to finish the spring onions I buy until they expire in the fridge so I thought, what the hey, let's grow my own. These babies don't even need soil, amazing isn't it?

Speaking of cost cutting, the company (Motorola-Networks division) has recently announced a take over by NSN (Nokia Siemens). As we all know take overs are commonly followed by reductions. Reductions in workforce I mean. So there was our new boss speaking in a townhall meeting, assuring that this was a revenue related synergy instead of cost related synergy. Bla bla bla, no one can really assure us contractors of that in my opinion. So yea, days here are numbered.
Most of us have made plans to return to KL. That includes Suresh and Akash who will most probably be arriving in KL earlier than scheduled. Well, they have their own personal reasons. As for me, I have my personal reasons too. Unless of course they terminate my contract earlier than expected. Until then, tentative arrival date in KL is 28th January 2011. This would most probably be for good, I'll just have to see where the next wind blows and which direction. Or maybe I'll just park safely in KL. Never know...

With that in mind, the next few postings will be of my time spent here. All the "noinsense" that we've been up to :P.... I'm sure it will bring back much memories when revisited in the future, all my housemates, colleagues and friends.
