Thanks Vihan for the kind words of appreciation.. however i would like 
to add that the picture is not always so rosy. Being part of a support 
infrastructure in most organizations is a thankless job. No one notices 
a job well done, but one screw up and you are hammered. The situation 
gets slightly worse when you are multitasking and handling multiple 
customers.

We at NetMagic realize that handling pressure is very person specific 
(some excel under pressure, other wilt) and as a result are trying to 
add more personnel to create a non-pressure situation for ourselves thus 
giving a better experience to our Customers. We also encourage giving 
our employees enough freedom for personal and technical growth..

Vihan (being a customer) visited NetMagic a couple of weeks ago for a 
tour of the datacenter.. and hence only saw the grass green.

BTW, i (yet) do not have any stake in NetMagic but am just a happy 
employee for the past 5+ years.. before that i was one of their customers.

cheers,
