TCS strength becomes 100000

Yesterday's (October 1st) Economic Times reports that TCS crossed the 1lakh employee mark. This means that every 12th IT person in this world will be TCS employee. (this is what the article claims) It further adds that if you count Infosys (75,000), Wipro, HCL, Cognizant and Satyam then every 6th IT person belongs to these consulting companies. Quite a feat indeed! Incidently I also learned a new acronym. The top consulting companies in India are now known as SWITCH (Satyam, Wipro, Infosys, TCS, Cognizant and HCL) Now go impress your colleagues with this new tid bids of knowledge :)

This news does remind me of a PJ.
Teacher is teaching a class about population and economics. He says,
Teacher: In India, there is a woman giving birth to a child every ten seconds...
Suddenly Buntasingh stands up from back of the classroom and shouts, "We must stop that woman Sir!!" :)
