Hello again

Seems like aeons ago that this blog was updated. Since then many things have happened in my life, for better or worse. Life has been hectic. The apprehension and excitement of joining a new job. Adjusting to new life (read job),et al. The change in setting, it seems, takes a heavy toll on my enthusiam for blogging compounded by the fact that there was no internet connection in my office computer. The computer guys have been informed several times, both over the phone and in writing. But till date there was no success on our part. At last one is resigned to the fact that this is how things work here. And you comforted yourself and learnt to take things easy. As soon as the computer guys come and do the needful, blogging will be resumed with renewed vigour. Apart from that, everything is working just fine here. It takes time to adjust to a new setting. But I am catching up on the nature of the work here. And I am really lucky that my boss is a very good and caring officer. I'll sign off now. Do check in for updates occassionally.

Goodbye KSP

After slogging my ass off for about a year and a half in this company, I finally handed in my resignation on 4th May, 2007 to move towards "greener pastures".

My journey in this company has been marked by ups and downs. There have been times when I feel used and became really frustrated and times when I really love working for this company. Anyway these are parts of life. What I like about this company is the dress code. You can wear jeans and T-shirt to the office Mondays to Fridays (I have always been a T-shirt and jeans person). Also there are no night shifts unlike most of the other BPO companies.

I had been through the usual grind of office politics (there is as much politics in private companies as in the government sector), tiffs with work colleagues, ego clashes, among others. And there were some really caring and helpful colleagues who stood by me through all the bad times.

I have learnt many things while working for this company and I am grateful to the company for that. I am especially indebted to Sunaina, our assistant team leader. She has been my mentor and benefactor. She was the one who guided when I first joined the company and stood by me at all times. She was the one I turned to whenever I have difficulties regardig my work and she was ever ready to help me. Thank you Sunaina and my best wishes to the company and all my work colleagues there.
