Well its official! I'm now employed with Proctor & Gamble. Of course, been working for/with P&G sometime now. But as on 1st July, I've formally moved into the rolls of the company. What that basically means is that my paycheck now comes from P&G.
Been busy over the last few weeks (who isnt these days), helping Gillette transition through the merger. I've had a tough time (who doesnt these days), but its been well worth the effort...learnt a lot..and I'm still learning.
In the midst of all these, Germany got only a 3rd place (saddening to say the least). But worst of all, Italy won! :(
Tommorrow is my last day at the Gillette office. Its a been a fab 18 months in this cubicle. Its also means a possible goodbye to Gurgaon ( relief!). Need to do something more with my free time than roam malls. Hopefully Mumbai will help in this department.

Its that time again....vacation's over and back to work. The hols were, to say the least, fast! Unlike most of my earlier trips, I didnt roam around too much ( perhaps due to the paucity of time). Nevertheless, I did visit a few malls, including the Ibn Battuta and the Emirates Mall, only cos' they had something more to offer beyond the average "4000 sqft. of shopping". I also made the mandatory visit to the Karama shopping complex, and bought a few tees....given the great deals one gets there. What I did mostly was however, spend time at home, basking in the warm glow of parental pampering, chocolate shakes and air conditioning ( real hot here now!).
Dubai is still caught in the construction warp. Besides a host of mind-boggling skuscrapers,gigantic malls, mile-long hypermarkets, luxurious hotels and villas that are slowly springing up across this once desert state, they are also now constructing a a grand metro rail that will change the way people commute ( and also reduce the ever-burgeoning traffic). A good part of urban dubai is being dug up as I write this, in preparation for this grand project.
All in all, a good break from Gurgaon and even work to some extent ( yes, i did check mails and attend a couple of calls...couldnt resist!).
