We finally had a first real team outing in what seems to be like an year! Its not that we haven’t met before, but all those meetings were ridden with Foodforce discussions, so they don’t count. Anyways, if you know something about the team, you will shake your heads in disbelief. For the uninitiated, the reason why we never had a team outing in the first place is because of the strange assortment of people in the team. The team contains a reallllly lazy bum as manager(thats me), ultra-sincere all-work-no-play coders like Vijit and over-worked Manu. This meant that even Mohit who had a social life(yes Mohit used to have social life before Foodforce) could do nothing. But well, things changed and a queer set of circumstances meant that we had our first team outing (without Manu sir but still!).
Ok first the circumstances. We won at technical fests in DCE for some events, got some cash prizes which obviously I did not go to collect. To cut a long story short, Mohit went in my place to collect the prize, we decided on a treat and Mohit persevered in making me come to Gurgaon! We invited Vijit who was really reluctant to come! His reasoning being that he has never gone for a social outing with friends before too! So, eventually out came the senior weapon, I ordered him to come(I know I am evil!). But, since we had no weapon against Manu sir, we could not convince him!
The outing was sooo much fun. Also, I got to know that well we(especially me) are not really cut out for bowling… perhaps we should stick to Foodforce only. Also, I got my eyes open, and finally realized what an 8% growth rate can do to a country. The place was looking so foreignish, it was just not like India.
Above are two videos of machana from the outing…..
