Yahoo! Got DSL at home

// March 19th, 2009 // No Comments » // About Fahd Murtaza, mansehra

I just ordered a PTCL DSL connection so-called PTCL Broadband. The process is quite easy. You just need to dial 1236 and the rest is ABC. It was fun talking to their CSR today which is usually not fun due to not availability of the CSRs. PTCL is getting good these days. I get speed of 1MB line on my 512kbps connection t office. Amazing right? But I have another connection just ordered at my home. It was my long time wishlist item and I was going to put it on my bucket list as I was thinking the PTCL is really slow in adding new cities to their network and may be it wont get done in my life time.

Got a new WD 320 GB HDD and a 19″ SAMSUNG LCD

// September 13th, 2008 // 5 Comments » // About Fahd Murtaza, Things I buy

Well I got a new Western Digital 320 GB HDD for storing my mobile HDD disk as its having some problem. Circuitry heats up and the USB based drives just disappear from My Computer. Pretty strange!

Thanks God, its still in warranty limit and I am gonna get it replaced. Though for moving its data that’s already in the portable HDD, I asked Farhan (my friend) how should I do do. he suggested that we should get the HDD crack opened, connected to SATA port and then transfer its data into brand new HDD I bought. The idea works and I have all my Movies and the Ebooks rescued (more…)

Wow, a new drama played by Pakistan Government

// February 18th, 2008 // No Comments » // About Fahd Murtaza, Election 2008

I am home for the weekend, elections are taking place. I am not interested in voting. Who wants to vote in a place where everybody is looking for his/ her personal achievements and nobody cares about the country and the nation. So I am not interested in voting. I just heard that 2 people have been killed in a panic at a Polling station in Mansehra.

I wish for my people that they  realize whats happening to them. I ask you guys whether you can name a person who has done some good for his/ her people?

It seems like its all a football game where politicians are like players and people like football. Go Musharaf Go!

Get Rid of These Bad Work Habits

// February 12th, 2008 // No Comments » // About Fahd Murtaza

By Anthony Balderrama, CareerBuilder.com writer

Who doesn’t have at least one habit that drives everyone else insane? You might bite your nails, slurp your coffee or tap your pen incessantly. Annoying? Yes. Serious problems? Not really.
In the office, however, some habits can go beyond annoying your co-workers; they can damage your career.
For the sake of your career and your co-workers’ sanity, here’s a list of bad work habits that can harm your career and how you can break them. If you’re guilty of one (or more), it’s time to get them under control.
Bad Habit: Missing deadlines.
What you think: “If it’s only a little late, it doesn’t mean anything.”
What it really says: Your colleagues and boss can’t count on you.
What to do: Don’t view deadlines as negotiable. Remind yourself that people are counting on you to do your job well, which includes completing tasks on time. Even if you just barely missed the deadline and everything turned out OK, you probably caused your teammates a lot of anxiety and extra work, which they won’t forget. (more…)
