Cyberhills

Every company has taught me something where I also got to meet some interesting managers. I just wished it would have been better if I could some them as Vampires. They never have a limit over demanding deadlines. My first night out was in Cyberhills, the manager wanted to release the project "World cup soccer" the very next day. God damn! Couldnt he give us an intimation. The next day I reached home all sleepy-sloppy , I wondered how did I get home? But I enjoyed them. There's no fun in life if you dont take up adventures be it small or big :) The manager in Cyberhills was a Korean and we all thanked him for spoiling our English. I thought babies would understand us better haha..!. I was always curious to know has he even coded in his life. My most memorable first job was working in Cyberhills -  a startup with not more than 10 employees.
The Tech Lead - BNVD Praveen (BNVD really is a looonn...g name, can't recollect what it was), the developers - Ronak, myself, Rishi, Uma & Ravi and the designers Sarvesh,Aryaman & Purnima.
We were more of family than colleagues, say it play @ work or work @ play, it was fun. Our lunch times extending from 1/2 hr to 1 hr. We used to finish our lunch in 10-15 mins and the rest of the time was spent playing Need for Speed over the LAN. Then Quake 3 which made me dizzy and my head would go bang-bang! Our conference table was the lunch table where all of us had lunch together sharing, gossiping, fighting over godly things one being an atheist..:P I would never forget those days.. Wish if we all could get together to relive those moments. I learnt to be a mediocre gamer from the master gamers. Never knew who is better than whom. I started realizing this is where I want to be developing stuff for mobiles & I guess the lord has blessed me with what I have asked for...
