'NTPC Experience'

6 Weeks at NTPC...to go on record but actually 8-9 days there...

Was veritably a different sort of experience. It was our Industrial Training at NTPC, Badarpur Plant. Wasn't anything very special...But still i spent 6 Weeks over there...toh it definately deserves a few pixels of space on my Blog Page...

The reason for applying for a training here was - 'A Government of India Enterprise with a known influential person over there' - Thought would be enuff to do away with the training part and will get the certificate just like that...We (Me, Saurabh, Manpreet n Shivani) went there the first day having the belief that we'll have to only come again to collect our certificate...But wasn't quite like wot we had thought..Found tonnes of student with the same belief...We were not among the few lucky ones who got their belief realized...

Training begun with a few lame and boring classes..With the whole strength of batch..With a few 'Cute Faces' as well around...After a few days the actual training begun with our visits to the Power Plant..Were quite enthrailling sessions..But with a 'Wierd + Awkward + Bunglesome Helmet' on our heads which made us look like 'Bandar Looking Idiots' wandering in the plant..We were supposed to bring an 'Industrial Safety Helmet conforming to IS:2925'...But we prefered this Rs 30 waala (Sponsored by Saurabh) from a roadside Helmetwaala with its losely bound, pathetic strands of cloth in the interior (Dunno for What - Hmmmm...were they to get a good grip of our head orrr maybe to cusion our head in the hot enviro ???...Waise wasn't good for any of the two...Wud have cracked like an egg in case of any mishap so wotz the point having a gr88 grip...N n that sticky cusioning by those strands wouldn't have done any good to our head..) ...N they came in such exuberant colours...Huh!! .. Mine being MAROON...

Sardar Manpreet eluded all this emabarrassment with his Usual Pagdi on...Biased are the rules...

All those 'Cute Faces' disappeared soon..Was quite boring now finding 'Mumfali-Eaters-At-Work' kind of people to train us for 15-20 minutes a day n give full day attendence..Some of them were soo kool to give attendences of days in advance...Government Offices are full of Kool People..Kudos to you guys.. ;-)

Sardar was good at Patao-ing all Sardar Instructors over there with his extreamely 'Gharelu Talks' in punjabi with them...Earned us few more attendences...

The most recherche n kool thing over there was the canteen with sucha Low Priced Menu - we looked at the Menu Board everytime ultimately to settle at a 'Full Sized-Hygienic-Good Looking Dosa' at Rs 5...Where else in world can you get it for as less as Rs 5...Ate quite a lot in our last few days there...

Submitted our 'Self-Made Reports'...Got a Certificate of being 'Very Good' at training from 'Mr Manmohan Singh'...Celebrated with Chicks-n-Mutts at CP...

Wish I had spent a few more days over there...Coz m feeling sooo vella at home these days...Vella enuff to write a blog entry about not so special thing...

N 'The NTPC Experience' Ends...

Good Night...

God Bless All !!!
