january 6th.....my employed nite-out

“Its been a while, since I could hold my head up high,
Its been a while, since I could look at myself straight.”

Those happen to be the lyrics of the song “its been a while” by staind and right now, applies to me in every sense or sensibility……I HAVE GOT A JOB. A place of my own, a seat of my own, a life I can stand out for, a place in my dad’s heart, a reason to find myself, a reason for all the hard work and shit I took of the college….and I have got a job.
Manhattan associates. A company I had never even heard of till today morning. But now that it has come walking upto me…I feel so fucking relieved that I cant start to think what I have to do or where to start doing it. That’s probably one reason why I am writing this at 4 in the morning, cos I have absolutely no clue what to do after this. Seems like all the purpose and pre-requisite of life has come to its place. I want to call someone and tell them that I have got a job…..I want to keep talking for hours on the net with friends and enemies and tell them that I have been placed. But I know its going to be idiotic and useless. Not many people are going to enjoy me calling them up at 4 in the morning. But, shit……what a fucking relief.
A day where I started out planning so many things. First of all, I was really unsure whether to go for the company. I was confused….and a slightly scared to compete against so many other guys a lot better than me. But, all those people reading this blog….let me tell you guys a “BIG” secret. I am freakingly talented from the inside. I have started believing in one big thing: “I CAN PUT A LOT A LOT OF FART, WHEN ITS NEEDED”. A politician’s trait, I know. But, I can be a great politician….and I think….well, everyone thinks……that’s how it works in a company. You have to be political….and now, I am in.
Looking at what kind of a job I will be getting……who the hell gives a shit. More importantly, I will be in Bangalore. Anusha and ladoo made loads of fun because of this placement. But, shit….I would lie like hell if I don’t say that, I will enjoy being there with durba. She is the reason I so wanted to go to Bangalore. She has become one of the guiding light of my life. In some way or another….I work and toil and fight…..because of her. Its strange for me….very new and very stupid. But, hell….who cares. I don’t care what others think about this idiotic thinking process of mine. But, I like to believe…that I have finally found someone dying for. Someone, I can look upto at the high points and the lows. And I am more than happy. No wait…..I am extremely happy.
And guys…..another thing that attracts me to the company…..hehe…..the package. Which was one of the big reasons of giving the test in the first place. Else than that….all the bull-crap about how the job is and everything….who cares.

Well, it was nice writing today’s blog. It was fun to an extent. This is how I am when happiness takes away all the pain. I have not slept for the past 2 days because of a lot of things. And now……I am not even feeling a bit sleepy. I feel like running around the town and shout out loud about what I have just done. And oh….nearly forgot.
My lovely 3rd wing. Thanks a lot. You guys made my day. To ladoo, anusha, cheenti, pati, majas, gillete, sachin, my dad, my mom, sis, all my relatives, etc etc etc….thanks a lot for making my day.

And dad, well, I know you wanted to see me go into a core company and shit…..but hopefully since you may never read this…..I have always hated core companies. Hated chemical engineering from day 1. So, I would have never loved it there. And plus…cmon, dad…..try to understand…..your hone-waali bahu is in Bangalore….so please spare a thought for us.
With love for all those guys and gals……Abheet.
