I saw 'the' Amitabh Bachchan yesterday !! Details I'll write later...

Continued cont...

So today Ravi and I started catching redundancies from the instructor's first line onwards.. We realized that we had missed a lot of them in the last two days so we had to really concentrate hard.. Here's the collection -

"the second alternative is.."

"you can use any other different operator.."

"one more additional point is that.."

"bifurcated into third type.." (BEST ONE)

"this node will give out as output.."

"we can again re-discuss it.."

"in the later coming part we will cover.."

"either this or either that.."

"let me show you an example with a simple example.." (LOL)

"let me re-repeat the example back for you..." (3-redundancy this is)

"the basic fundamental point to be noted...."

Now that the training has ended.. I feel sad.. I want to again re-attend it back !!

Information Informatica

Today was the 2nd day of my 3-day training on 'Informatica' in office. When my manager had asked me to enrol for this course, I was a bit reluctant. I thought there would be some experienced (old) people and a boring instructor. But it turned out that I'm having quite a lot of fun..

On the first day, one of my batchmates was late so he could not get a system (there were 16 comps in the training room and 20 people enrolled) and so both of us are sharing the same system. So we keep cracking jokes and laughing. On top of that, the instructor is very funny and his English is too too funny.

He started the class by giving us some reading material and then cracked his first PJ - "On this weekend, all of you please give Chetan Bhagat a break and read about Informatica! Don't do a 4th mistake by not reading this!"

He has this problem of redundancy. He doesn't know(s) that the 's' in verbs is avoided when it comes after 'does'. So all the time he keeps using phrases like 'does not works', 'does haves, 'does writes' etc. But the issue is more deep-rooted. Today I noted down all the redundant phrases he used. This is actually quite funny -

'the next one more thing I want to tell is...'

'You can use either of the one...'

'I will ask you to do one single exercise...'

'There can be multiple different sources..'

'There is no point in again recreating...'

'This mapping is bifurcated into two...'

'Lets try a more bigger example...'

BUT THE BEST ONE WAS

'I don't mind re - repeating the concepts !!'

Anyways.. will write if something more happens tomorrow ;)
