D Khosla at Deloitte Dot Ka

Another great day here in Hyderabad.  It's a bit strange straddling two time zones for work.  I just wrap up my day here and by the time I get back to the hotel, everyone is just getting going in Halifax which means my inbox starts to fill up again.  As the hours progress through the evening, the rest of Canada begins to wake up and so it continues.  Since having Isabel 4 years ago, I've been quite diligent about being home for supper and bedtime and then working from home as I need to, so trying to do that here.  The business lounge at the hotel starts to fill up around 8pm; seems everyone has the same idea...minus the putting their kids to bed part...I'm sure their kids are back home, wherever home is for them.  Okay now I'm rambling...onto the point of my post.

Today I was talking to the "office boy" as he seems to be referred to, or as I prefer to call him, Syed (which is his name).  I'm not set up to print from my computer yet, which means I can't scan to my computer so Syed was helping me out.  He asked for my email address, so I wrote it down...dkhosla@deloitte.ca.  I pointed out the .ca as he would be used to seeing .com and I didn't want him to get it confused.  He responded by saying, okay, so it's "at Deloitte Dot Ka"...I smiled, agreed and off he went.  Such a simple observation but it made me think; there's always more than one way to look at something, more than one side of a story and often more than one "right" answer.

As the saying goes, "you say 'tomato', I say 'tomato'"...

Short and sweet tonight.
