Happy 10th Anniversary

As far as my employment with this company is concerned 2nd May is very significant. On this date 10 years ago (yes! that’s right, it’s TEN, and I did not add any unnecessary 0 to it) I formally joined this company. And stuck with it ever since. After completing a post-graduate degree I was very eager to practise what I learnt at university. I opted to be transferred into this company, the research arm of our big company.

Since my days at university, I have developed interest in in-depth study of engineering problems. When described with mathematical equations, with some simplifying assumptions, physical phenomena are beautifully modeled into sets of abstract symbols and numbers. Wow! I felt like I had been given a privileged taste of God’s beauty as manifested in nature. It’s God’s work as revealed to us in the science of mathematics. I thought everybody was highly involved in high-powered cutting edge research, finding new solutions and contributing knowledge to the world. I was an idealist.
