Upcoming features and enhancements in iOS 14

With apple new software update about to be announced in few days, I would also want to jump into the bandwagon of specialists predicting upcoming features and enhancements. I have long been using Apple products and most probably my predictions have come true, it may be due to my luck, or analytical skills or guessing it right. So, back to the topic of what might be the upcoming confirmed features of iOS 14, let me list down in bullets as detailed below and please note I don’t have any insider or any sources inside apple. I make predictions only based on apple’s track record and other tech analysts detailing in their YouTube channel. Let's see below what might be the upcoming features in iOS 14. 
  • With Covid-19 pandemic impacting economy across the world, Apple might promise performance improvements on things like CPU, GPU or Graphics that might be least interest to amateur people like me. 
  • Apple might bring widgets like features in home screen and Apps being moved left side, like how we move right or bring top down notification centre to view widgets, apple might make specific area in home screen for widgets 
  • Third party apps will be given more preference than Apple apps like Safari, Apple Maps, Apple Music, etc. 

Above are just start of my perditions and I will continue to predict features and enhancements about iOS 14 in my other “G R Team Sites”

Initiating work for new opportunity with stupid manager

After logging back to work after a long vacation and connecting from home due to the Covid-19 pandemic situation, I was hoping that I will not get work for a couple of days due to downtime and could some quality time with my family. However, all my hope was vanished within seconds due to messages from my manager, stating that a new opportunity has come with the same old account team and the opportunity had a short turnaround time of 2 weeks. Believing that this opportunity would be ending than anticipated and with no work on my table, I had no other option but to accept the work. The initial description I got from my manager was to collate a few slides on listed topics with a clearly defined storyline and the customizations can be done further with inputs from the delivery team. Again, all his inputs were directed to the trash, and without knowing this communication from the onsite team, I had put in my effort to collate slides that he had requested and created a storyline with my thought process. To know further on how it was ripped off by onsite team, please feel free to check out the blog posts in “G R Team Sites”

Pulled back into old request after vacation

After coming back from my long vacation I felt rejuvenated to work on a new service request as I was not bothered during my vacation days and was completely spending quality time with my family. So, after logging back into the office, I was hoping to get some new work with the new delivery team and prove my ability to complete the service request swiftly without any escalation. However, all my plans ruined within few hours after logging back into the office after a long vacation, I was pulled back into that old service request, which I was working earlier before my vacation and the same old mail thread was reopened again with additional services. I was fuming inside, as I had no other option to transfer this service request to someone else but to support this request. The most annoying part of this service request is that I had to work with the same old people with whom I had issues and had thought conflicts. To know how I tackled this service request, please feel free to check out the blog posts listed in “G R Team Sites”

Surprisingly no work and ruined plan with old work


My manager has conveyed that new work has come and would require a lot of effort for the next 2 weeks and it would be assigned to me. With a record of accomplishment for my manager being completely clueless about the service requests assigned to me, I was completely curious to get further information about the service request and was eagerly waiting for the tasks to begin. The next working day after this conversation with my manager, I called up the delivery person to understand the nature of the work and effort required from me for the next 2 weeks. To my surprise, he was mentioning that the work is a little bit and may need only limited support from my end. I was jumping out of joy, my prediction about my manger had worked out once again and I was looking forward to killing time for the next two weeks. However, again the entire plan of me being without work for next week was ruined by my previous work with the most irritating delivery & account teams.
