All right folks, i havent written in a while But all this while i have been thinking about writing. I guess i am too lazy. But i love to write. This blog is my best friend. And that is there to it. You can ignore your best friend for a while, but sooner or later you will come back to it.
I really needed a break from my job. I am excited i am moving on to a new role, in a new city. Past few days have been a mixed baggage. I have realized, that i have such few friends, because i have not kept in touch with the most precious of them. The few ones i have kept in touch are so unbelievably nice. Thanks to you guys, i feel like living still. ON my last day at work, i got a few surprises. Let me analyse them here.
These 2 people, with whom i sit and work with everyday, my team mates in my project for last 3 months, whom i have helped so many times, with personal and official work. They dont turn up for my last 3 days in office, 3 days unplanned leave running. They just call and tell me sorry dude couldnt catch you, see you later and best of luck.I mean, it is one thing to not care, not say good bye etc, But not turning up, come on guys, be a man, give it to me on my face if you have the balls. But you dont have them else you wont be working at 4.5LPA after your US MBA in this shitty profile and reporting to a stupid ass man.
My second grouse is for my pretty cab mate, with whom i have shared countless cab rides, in the morning and in the evening, every day. I actually believed we had bonded over the lame conversations which we forced on ourselves to make the two hour commute to office more bearable. I dint expect much, but no bye, no wishes, no acknowledgement of my good bye mail as well. I get the message lady and you are blocked from my facebook account. Ditto for from assholes who i hated but had to accept friend requests from. Burn in hell losers.
And now the good part.
It was indeed a pleasant surprise from my core group of friends to give me a farewell lunch at a nice place and followed by a nice dinner at a really nice place on mg road.
The bald, horny senior boss, who actually screwed up my appraisal last year, inspite of the hard work i put in, actually called me and said, "lets chat before you leave today". There is something about personal communication, it gives you away completely. The man has such dishonest eyes. He is a senior director, bitching about the company to a guy who is several years junior, whose review he fucked last year and who will never refer him positively. He is asking me to refer him to my new workplace! Yeah sure asshole, eat shit. It felt good, to see him exposed like a loser he really is. It was fun staring back at him and not saying anything, just implying, i know your game, dont play it with me.
The hr lady who i always thought was a very mean lady, actually took me out for a coffee and we talked like old college buddies for a good hour and a half.
The team mate with whom i have never worked got me a great t-shirt. It was a pleasant surprise because i never thought we were that close. It is expensive shit. Thanks dude, you are awesome. I owe you one here.
The girl who looks up to me as a mentor good me a great card and pen holder. She is a sweet girl, I owe her for her time loads of coffees at CCD and Barista wouldnt be same without her.
I missed some great friends i have made here. Friends who will last a lifetime. I know They have moved on to other things in life, Some for the better and some for well, what they considered better. I hope this change is for good. It feels good to write again. More later!!
