End of Chapter 1

After almost a year, i quit my first job today. As frustrating and claustrophobic as this place is, i think im gonna miss it. How many people in Bangalore can say that commute between home and work is under 10 mins? My personal record is 7 mins. Of course, i probably had some heavy music blaring in my ears.

The work had been completely unheard of. Writing patents! Im no software guy, very far from it actually. And a job in the IT capital which dint involve coding and paid decently( I have a Bachelor's degree in Electronics & Communication and my folks assumed i would be in the Major Leagues!) were very few and far in between. So when i got here and wrote a test for this company they seemed impressed with my writing and offered me a job. Was the first interview i'd ever attended.

As far a work goes, actually let me not go any further. Work is work and it gets to you. What came out of it is discovering a passion for writing. I never in a million years would have imagined that one day i would be writing for a living. Met a lot of interesting people here. Each one with a unique quirk. Quite a motley crew i must say. A very intelligent man-undoubtedly the wisest guy i have ever come across. May his soul rest in peace. A very very professional woman who has smiled maybe about 7 times since i'v gotten here. My initial team lead. And a business man. In every sense of the word. My CEO. And a girl who i found out much later loathed me because she thought i was "one of them guys". For the others i missed, you know who you are, i'l miss you all. Thanks for the good times.



This was my first job and like my first love i'll always remember it as much as i want to forget it.

Life goes on. Its a new beginning. New people to meet, new mistakes to make, new adventures to undertake.
