Hope I could be like you!!!!

You should have tried out the other company called ........

What - a cut in pay?? MAD???

Hey, are u joining or is this like your own company???

Old Monk GOLD rocks

Try out this liquor called 'Old Monk Gold'. Available in most places and much less known, Old Monk Gold cost you a mere 15 rupees more than your regular Old Monk Rum. Sleek Bottle and smooth fluid. You can have the drink like pepsi - straight from the bottle and not a flinch on your face!!! Try it out. Old Monk Gold ROCKS!!!!

The poet quits

I came here dressed in white
Clean shaven; boots soot black
Marketing, Projects or R&D
Sure I was in need of "core"!!!

Bombay Madras and Bangalore
Mirchi, Ranchi and Trichy
Seen a lot, never seen all
Selling boards or trying more

2 years have gone by
I die to say "good bye"
Oldies baldies and wannabes
I cant take it anymore

Thanks for your pay
Sorry I aint gonna stay
Gotta take my own hay
Its my way or the highway

My little piece of paper!

Fianlly I threw a piece of paper on the face of the dirty corporate in the 'Die Bitch Die' fashion. All the tamashas in the form of notice period, 'loyalty', 'trust' and 'dignity' reamins questioned. Had a session with the superman big boss here who tried to convince me on the bright and secure future lying in front of me, who was told very humbly and politely in bated breath to take that bright future up his rear. Superman being not so happy and excited about the whole proposition got emotional and ensured me, "I will screw you if I get a chance to. I thought of you as a good boy, but you are one sleazy crook". Why? I feel I had enough and I wish to move. What about the two years of investment the company has put on me and about my negligible returns back - I say I am sorry, but ya fuck you all. Thank you for the investment anyway. Feels like I have been starving for 21 years of my sorry life when this great hub of human upliftment (my company) spotted me hungry, thirsty, horny and naked on the street, invested some money and started asking me back for favors. All the fuck-ups, sad ass human forms of life and insults along the way been more like grooming young talent (thank you very much, sic!!).

Right now I have my daily trips to the HR department and all other B.S.D.s to 'follow up' on my little piece of paper and check out any probable plan of action. Till then I could just suck my thumb and sit on my ass in some air conditioned room (a pretty big one with some 50 odd human forms to pollute the air) where we are supposedly acting like working and bringing value to the shareholders and my career (one more 'value' word from these bad breathed rascals and I will jump out of this fourth floor window)

The turning point

Very important things happening in my life and career right now. I thought it appropriate to proclaim in through my blog to all my readers here. I finally decided to quit my high paying high status job for a small, young and fun - filled company. I am too thrilled and excited about the same. Due to professional reasons, I shall not be able to publicise the name of the firm for some time - all those formalities and stuff in the industry!!!

Just for the fun of it, here's something I call "Pointing at the right direction"

2007 - where were u while we were getting high

Been like a bloody long time since i touched my blog. Been too busy reading others and getting me a nice new little job. Nov 30 is my last day on my first job.

2007 been genrally good i say. The whole bloody year been a hangover to 2006. I still remember the new year when my roomie and official New year drink mate fell sick after some fish fingers at a five star in Chennai. I still remember the 10th of Jan. when I gathered my nuts and threw a resignation out of sheer adrenaline rush, the Pondy trip, the transfer to Mumbai, the travel back to clean up some shit, SAP project, truly unconventional job search, the interview, the second letter and yes a lot lot lesser hair on my head. 2007 - You been boring - But u been Good!!!

Thanks

When I was home, I' ve been to college too for a couple of days. The rumours are true. The place has changed beyond recognition - buildings, grounds, kids, history and culture ("fundae"), hostels etc. etc.

The "development" and inflow of funds has not even spared the football court which is all dugged up and cemented for a new library or some stuff like that. Guys no longer hang around at the basketball court or even at the Rajpath being just for the sake of it. I know for certain that these "lazy moments" and talks have a much larger part in making me than the classes or the exams. Kids do flaunt laptops with wi-fi connection and play the latest games, but.............

What pained me the most was the MC. Believe it or not, MC is no more. It is closed down and being shifted to some concrete block called the community centre.




Unwanted and not cared for, thus lies the CREC-ian symbol.

You may either move with the times or...... CRECians better take the message and live in your memories. Nothing's more beautiful

I love you! I thank you! I am proud of you!

If not for you, Alma Mater, I would have been a stranger to myself.

Keeping the spirits alive with the gods of Rock and Roll!!!

Now that I am older, wiser and seen the world, took a trip back to roots.

Was this what I wanted to be? Was there a higher purpose? Am I cool enough?

May be yes. Mabe no. But I don't really know!!!
