Office, Movies & all that

I never imagined that this would happen to us. But its happening.
At work front, these days we go to the office just to attend 'self development" trainings. No work- absolutely no work. The client wrapped up its business (partial) on 21st of the last month. Officially yes, 21st was the last working day of our lob. We were given 22nd as off. Our team members were moved/transferred to another process on 23rd. 24th onwards we were scheduled for OD trainings conducted by the HR team. Initially, the trainings were fun. We were divided in teams & were instructed to paint/draw/decorate the chart sheets. I remember in one of the FISH trainings, I was cutting off the shapes of a sun & 2 leaves but ended up creating a bunny. That was fun. Even the trainer liked it. Working with those glitter pens & sketch pens were loads of fun.

We were taken out to a school run by a NGO under the "Corporate Social Responsibility' program. First day, we organised a small drwaing competition & on the second day it was the 'actions' that we taught them on a poem.Overall it was fun. Guys served meal to the kids before the school got over. It was all fun singing & seeing them dance on Bollywood nos.

We were taken out for a movie to one of the PVRs in Gurgaon -MGF. It was the movie "Shaurya". Pepsi & popcorn- all sponsored by the team. It was good. In-house we went thru, Castaway yesterday, few days back it was Coach Carter, Iqbal & The pursuit of happiness. All inspirational movies. Shruti, thank you for lending me the DVD- i can now watch the movies which i skipped out in the last few months. Though am not a movie buff but wont mind watching these movies. :-)

During these trainings get to meet people from Quality & other lobs. Overall initially it was fun but I hope that they place us in some process or the other. I really wish to work now. Cant help it...!!!!
