Latha’s Birthday at Summit HR

Latha is one stop solution for all problems in Summit HR. If she is not in office for a day, we feel like missing something at Summit HR. She takes care of everything from system to office maintenance. Meet everybody with a smiling face and always ready to help people at work with the best of her knowledge.

Latha helped me a lot when I joined Summit sometime back. Daily she used to wish me in morning and checked if I needed anything? Would like to share a small incident-“ One day she was suppose to hand over office laptop and few other things to me but I left office early that day due to fever.  Next day I was bit scared to counter Latha but she welcomed me with smile and felt sorry for my ill health, then handed the laptop to me”. I said sorry to her for the inconvenience caused to her due of my absence, to which Latha said “Its okay, you didn’t do it intentionally”

Latha / Karthik used to send B’Day greetings to all Summitian on their Birthday. Yesterday was Latha’s Birthday, since Karthik is no longer with Summit, we were wondering who would send her B’Day greeting.
I along with Badri and Rashmi decided to do something different for Latha, we decided to celebrate her B’day by cutting cake. Since cake had to be eggless, it was difficult to find it but with Hari’s help we were able to figure out a shop and got the cake for her.

When we requested Latha to come and cut the cake, she was very happy at the surprise we planned for her. The cake was yummy, everybody liked it a lot. 

Sometime small surprises can do wonders and make people happy. Looking forward to share more such happy moments at Summit

Where does sleep goes on holiday?


Getting out of bed early morning is tough task for anybody, we strive to sleep for 5 or 10 more mins. We wait eagerly for weekends when we can sleep for long hours. But on weekends we tend to wake up early than expected. I don’t know if it happens with most of us but it happens with me and few other people whom I know.

On weekdays I get up by 7.30 or 8.00 am max that also either through alarm or someone needs to call me. But on weekend without any alarm my sleep breaks by 6 am and them lie on bed till 8 or 9 depending upon the schedule of the day. But after lunch feel sleepy and take a nap for 2 -3 hrs.  

Despite my best attempt to find out exact cause for this strange behavior no remarkable success has been achieved so far. If my weekends are going to be hectic I feel like sleeping for long hours. Today I had no plans scheduled for the day, I was awake by 6 in morning. It was not the case last week, when the schedule was tight. 

I think its a psychological factor, Mon-Fri we have no option but to get up early to reach office on time,  we look forward to sleep more and wait early for an off. But on weekend we know, have ample time to sleep and get up on our time but tend to get up early.

Do you have any other better suggestion for this strange behavior?
