Outsourcing == More Holidays

Tomorrow is Memorial Day in the US and its a national holiday there. Since no one in the US will turn up for work, this means holiday for all the people in India who work/support for the US companies from here. Ofcourse we indians still get holidays for all the local festivals.

I, for one, plan to chill out and take-it-easy tomorrow 🙂

    ooh it’s a big tradition
    the race, and barbecuing–I just watched Martha Stewart grilling on another channel (must be a re-run) and I smell the charcoal from my neighbor’s back yard. At the supermarket this morning, Coca’Cola was $2.50 a 12-pack (limit 4) and they had it stacked on the floor the lenghth of the isle and about 4 feet deep and stacked 6 cases high…wonder how it is now. No beer or wine sales before 12 noon, but that’s moving, too, I’m sure.
    There is a girl Sarah driving in the Indy today, 23 yrs old. oops first wreck into the wall, grandson of A.J. Foyt, he’s ok, but has to take mandantory trip to the hospital…

    their big fat tires have no tread–its raining again–28 laps into the race, may call it off for the day, really pouring :{ but safer to wait

    Thats one nice thing about F1. When it rains, the drivers come into the pits for new tyres with thick rubber with lot of threads… and the race goes on 🙂

    European GP you mean 😉 The German GP is in about a month & a half away…

    Technically you’re right…this one is held in Germany as well, but called the European GP. Wonder why…

    What a bunch of talents they have got. They work as coordinated team and sometimes you will be left admiring the way they dominate isnt it.

    amen
