Productivity, Pain and PHP
June 19, 2007 by Santosh
These three P’s have taken most of last couple of weeks. I just got a great boost to my productivity this week, after spending almost most of my office time (and a significant part of my hard earned money) at different Cafe Coffee Day and Barista outlets, now I have my own office. Yes, it was almost 6-7 hours every day at these places with my laptop as it gave me comfortable working space, though this place was damn costly at one frappe/Cappuccino per hour and it was not doing any good to my caffeine addiction, but it was getting my things done. And every now and then a quick glance at tables around had enough eye tonic to recharge your batteries, if caffeine failed.
So now I have an office and need not worry about many things but the recent changes in job profile and some more responsibilities being put on me, the scene is not much different. Making things worse, is my back pain, which has bounced back like Saurav Ganguly and giving me really tough time. It ensured that I am not comfortable doing my set of very quick exercises which kept my waist size unchanged for last seven years. I am so helpless that if somebody slaps me or throw some punches on me, instead of me showing some old kick boxing skills, I need to resort ‘Setting’ (I learn this term during my graduation days, if you cannot beat some body, uski setting kar do, get him beaten up).
This weekend also got my old programming skills revived and really had tough time coding in PHP. It is really pain to write an application to run on server which has been configured by someone else. The task I thought I can finish off in jiffy took a lot, but finally I did and discovered that I am far better than most of these programmers’ who told me that you cannot do it unless you have ’administrator’ access to the server. I did it guys.

CCD/Barista - kaam nahin tum kanya tapne jaate the! thank god ab kuch kaam karoge office main.
Back Pain - try hard cot instead of cozy beds…
