QA Lunchbox: This title is definitely used from an Indian film – The Lunchbox (2013) but I wanted to use this word to articulate the recent QA team event which we did last Friday dated – 01/09/2017. Prior to start penning down the stuff about our recent event – Let me refresh the old memories of our childhood.
During school days, we all were carrying our lunchbox with us which holds a sweet treasure within it. An effort of our mother who starts their morning by making tasty and healthy food for us, day after day, for about 17+ years. Hats Off To You Mom!!!
Having lunch during recess time was a normal trend but if we break all the rules and try to maintain the decorum of having at least one bite of our lunch box during lecture time that gives us a pleasant feeling.
I would like to highlight the person who took the maximum benefit among all – Back Benchers!
Lunchtime “Tiffin time” also teaches us a valuable life lesson – The joy of sharing which make us a better human being.
Let’s compare the old days with current IT days – Today we also carry our lunch box but that doesn’t give us that feeling. We eat at our desk; sometime alone or sometime in a group – Just to calm down our hungry stomach… nothing else.
Recently QA team has come with an idea of having lunch together in office. To progress on this idea – Varsha has sent a voting email about Friday Team Lunch and most of the responses were YES because people were in assumption that she is giving us a treat. Later, it turned as T.T.M.M. We requested all not to carry your lunch box on Friday because we would be having a “Common Food”
Next challenging task was to decide the Common Food for all. Neha has made everyone’s task easier. She took the snapshot of menu one day prior so that we should decide the items properly and finalize it. The items which were finalized for all – As usual Corporate Panner, Jira Link (Jeera) Rice, RAG Status Amber Fried Dal, Best Execution (Butter) Naan & Aloo (Mifid) Matar.
On Friday, Neha has ordered the stuffs with agreed quantity and also informed all that our things would be in place by 12:30 PM IST. Team started in and went through their basic email check & today’s task.
At 12:30 -12:45 PM IST; we started moving towards canteen where few volunteers have blocked the entire row for 29 people. We had a tasty food together with joy of sharing the plates & foods – Reminded me the old days of our school life. One thing I would like to mention here – During the lunch, not a single person talked about their project and all. Well we all are part of a family now so would like to quote here:
Families that eat together, stay together!!
Post lunch, we had Malai Kulfi, Lime Water & Butter Milk – That added sweet taste at the end & support digestion :)
