First Day of my First Job

As everyone will be very eager, ancious and excited about the First Day oftheir First Job, so was me on May 9th (The day i joined iNautix). Once i have heard my seniors telling me about the fantacies of Tidel Park and the security over there. And now i am going to work there. It was a nice feeling. A person without an Identity card will find it difficult to enter Tidel.

Myself and Fredrick started from our house by 7.15 am. We had our breakfast in a small hotel. Then we took an auto(being the first day) to reach Tidel. At the gate Madavan(IT) from our college was waiting. We three started our journey to iNautix. Even the security guards speak english at Tidel. We showed them our Call letter and they told the procedure to enterTidel. The first thing we have to do is to get a Visitor Pass, normally a long queue will be there to get the visitors pass at peak hours. Even theSecurity guards room is air conditioned. We got our pass and then enteredTidel. Tidel, a huge building..... My eyebrows raised.

Then we went to get a lift to 10th floor. The lifts over here are very fast, within seconds it reaches 10th floor. We went there very early. By 8.30 am we were in the reception of iNautix. One of the HR received as and asked as to wait in the "Cafet Area", a place to have coffee in iNautix. Slowly people gathered and by 9.15 they started the formalities. First they asked as to group ourselves in alpahbetical order. It took 15 minutes to gather in alphabetical order. Then, they asked as to enter our details and gave us our Employee ID. Then we had a coffee break and all rushed to have our coffee (Free !!!). I thought of Mahesh, if he is here he would finish all the available coffees and teas.

Then our joining formalities continued till 11.45 am. We were asked to fillup the PF form, Details about us, Health Insurance form, Insurance form. All new experience. Then one of the HR gave the general facts and the history of our company. It continued for an hour. He said that we were put into Open Systems training (C, C++, Java, J2EE, .NET) and also gave the information that our Training faculty will be very strict. At about 1.30 we departed for our lunch. Again by 2.30 pm we were back to business.

Now we have to fill up a form to open a bank account. Representatives from CitiBank came and gave instructions and we followed up. We were given a package containing Debit Card, Check leaves and a Help guide. Yeah, now I own a Debitcard for myself!!!. After these formalities were over one of the associates of our company came and gave instructions to be followed when we have a fire accident. Everyone were stunned, first day giving instructions about Fire Exit. The associate told that it is just for formaility and nothing bad has happenned till date.

My first day at iNautix got over by 4pm and we all left Tidel by 5 pm. From there i went to Egmore to see my parents. I showed them the things given by the company. At about 7pm we started to Marina Beach and spent some time there. Marina beach, full of pairs :-). From there we went to Titan showroom and i bought a Watch for myself. After having our dinner, i stayed with my parents that night.
