Good Salary hike and hope for promotions

It is that time of the year, where every IT employee who had put their souls and hard work for past one year would get recognised. Yes, it is none other than yearly salary hike and promotions. As, I have reiterated many times in my earlier posts that I have been awarded first rating in my team and recognised as key player in the team. In addition, during this year’s annual rating cycle, I thanked my manager for awarding me the first rating and taking much courage I requested my manager about my promotion. I was awarded first rating for two continuous years and promotion should be by default. However, there is a company policy, which states an employee should have completed 3 years, before he/she is been considered for promotion. With such twists in place, I was really curious to get my yearly salary hike and very anxious about my promotion expectation for the current year. Check out “G R Team Sites” for such posts.

Decision to move from Airtel Postpaid to prepaid

One fine day, I decided to move from Airtel postpaid to other mobile operator and requested mobile number portability for switching over to new mobile operator. I got the portability request number and within few minutes I got call from the airtel customer support team and the executive who was speaking, convinced me that it would be better I moved from postpaid to pre-paid, if my objective of moving to a new operator was high postpaid bills. The point seems to be valid for me and I was checking about the procedure and was confirmed by the executive that, within four hours the postpaid connection would be moved to prepaid and in addition, my child number can also be transferred to prepaid. This conversation was really positive, and I was convinced for staying in airtel with conversion to be prepaid. To know more about it, continue reading at G R Team sites.

Send off to my Team colleague for joining new team

As I conveyed earlier, one of my teammates and friend from my team has decided to move to new team and it really shook me a lot. Now I would be all alone in my team and the work would pile up a lot and no new joiner(s) have been planned for replacement. Finally, the day has come, and my colleague’s farewell day and gift were planned. Since I was in the same ODC as my colleague I had no other option but to coordinate for the gift and e-voucher to be shared. However, the final day has come and till now no person from my team has sent me their share for the gift or voucher. But I don’t want to be the spoilsport for my colleague and got gift out of my pocket and ensured it was ready on the day of farewell. On the farewell day as, usual everyone was praising the work and vice versa and she left for one last time from my ODC, bay and location. Now I am all alone and had to cope up with the loneliness, read more at “G R Team Sites”

Most frustrating week with lot of work load

After acknowledging the new work from the old team with tight deadlines, I got update from the current opportunity delivery team that this opportunity to closed within next one week. To add more fuel to fire, the day they are planning to close this opportunity is the same day where I was planning to take off from work and spend some quality time with my family. In meantime, I conveyed to this new opportunity delivery team that I got looped into earlier opportunity that I was working on and it would get over in next few days, so my support for this opportunity would be limited. The new opportunity delivery team were very kind enough to accept the fact that I would not be available only for next few days and would again support in later stage. However, this irritating team has looped me into the calls and updates, without even checking with me as a courtesy whether my bandwidth is available or if I am working on another opportunity. I was completely pissed off with this behavior and later on I even came to know about one more fact, which made me frustrated to the core. Continue reading “G R Team Sites”
