Job Lyf

One of my happiest days in college was d day wen i was selected in Patni Computer Systems. The market was down, comppanies were less...so i was more releived than happy wen i got selected @ the 3rd company that visited our colege. Within a few more days, i was also called for interview in a relatively small-scale Nagpur based company named InfoCepts. I was not much enthusiastic, but then thought to give it a try, just for the sake of it. Little did i know of my future then.....

I was selected in this as well, and the HR knew i was placed in PCS as well....so she keept pressing me to join this company over PCS, saying that it had better perspectives. I was reluctant and denied many times, but she was persistent. I am so thankful to her for that. That was the ending of 3rd year in college... I was pretty high, being the sellective few who ha grabbed 2 jobs; specially wen many had none. Within an year though, the reality stuck, and God!! Dint it strike hard!!! No official letter from PCS yet, and i was really depressed. And then i was offered the joining by my curent company (InfoCepts) just within 20 days of the final semester exam completion.

It was no short of a miracle for me, specially when i had not attended a single session here during the 3rd/4th year of my college. So, i readily accepted the offer and joined, the 1st from our entire college batch i think. I am about to complete an year and half of so called "Corporate Life" in just a month. I surely have gained sumthing in the past 1.5 year; new friends, monetarily, knowledgewise...but i sure have also lost some. They say there's nothing like a free lunch here...u gotta pay 4 every crumb here. I miss my old happy-go-lucky days...the easy effortless spending of time with friends and most importantly, the lack of responsibility on our shoulders....Not that i am kind of experienced here, the expectations & responsibilities are mounting...and its sumtyms tough 2 meet them..

How i wish i could be a kid again!!!
