Life in Corona

For quite sometime, I keep stressing the sentence in tamil to my friends: "Career vachi Tiffin Carrier Kooda vaanga mudiyaathu" meaning you cannot buy a tiffin carrier using your professional career. Off late, I am seeing lot of my friends and colleagues running behind to enhance or sometimes even save their career.

Come 2020, the entire definition of life and career has changed for many.

All IT Companies are accepting and stressing employees to work from home.

All the people who were running rat races finally spend time with their beautiful families.

Most importantly, this Corona lockdown has given good sleep to the sleep deprived professionals.

Overall, what (Corona) was once assumed as stress to life has now actually been a stress buster.

I hope people now realize how important is to enjoy life than running behind a useless career.

 

An update

Recently before a month, I have quit my company. Yes, you read it right "MY company". "So, whats the big deal in it? In Software field these jumps are prevalent", asks my friend. But still I am having an heavy heart. Sometimes the loyalty and friendship becomes too close that you consider them to be part of your day to day life. I still get up @5.30 in the morning keeping in mind that I have my office bus to catch at 06.35 am :-(

But as they say, Change is the only thing that never changes, I consider this change to do some good for me.

It has indeed done many good for me. I dont have a daily routine of travelling to Sholinganallur or Mahindra World VILLAGE in Paranur all the way from Korattur. It has refreshed me physically.

I am now involved in learning a foreign language for the purpose of my MBA, but I must confess that its truly refreshing and I am enjoying every bit of the same. No appraisal, No code delivery or bug fix tensions... Life has become sooper dooper chill...

My creativity quotient has increased after quitting my company.

The one thing that worries me is the lack of work for a long time. I am trying all sort of activities to keep myself occupied right from gardening to feeding the road side animals....

I must convey that life has more to offer than spending the entire 16 hours at office. For once, I was repenting that quitting too early might be wrong, but not any more....

This break should do a world of good to me in shaping my mental ability.

Looking forward to the future!!

Cheers

Who am I

I work for a reputed company. My designation is one of the most essential cog in my company's wheel. Yet, my reputation is shortlived. One day I am the hero for my team and the next day I am the Villain. People say, "My experience is irreplacable and still replace me in a span of one week if I move out"

Who am I?


















If you have guessed it as Software Engineer, then you have hit the bull's eye....
