The Economic Redemption...!!!!


For some reason i always imagine present life scenario of everyone in the S/W field to that of Andy in "The Shaw Shank Redemption". Yes indeed even though its early days for many guys like me in the software field, i somehow feel like spending ages and desperately looking for a change and freedom from the Economic Downturn.....The hardest part is that you are somehow forced to do what you are doing now and you are just caught in the jaws of a crocodile...!!!

May it be Economic Downturn or the Shocks that we see these days in this particular field, everyone is so scared of SOFTWARE or IT to put it in a more simpler terms.
The other day i was just traveling to Bangalore by Bus in a Volvo when the co- passenger suddenly introduced himself and understanding that i am a Software Engineer, he was very concerned about the future of IT. My God what a pity...!!! The field which has just two years back attracted almost everyone on earth is facing a dearth situation now... That Gentleman had indeed a very long converstation with me asking whats the reson for this downturn and asking me when can we come out of this?

Well i could not answer many of his questions but certainly i felt happy that even in this economic crisis people are very concerned at least the concern has no Down Turn...

A PERFECT BEGINNING...!!!


What best beginning you want than celebrating your birthday on the first day of a happy New Year. Yes indeed i was one of those lucky guys who is born on a day when the whole world celebrates a new beginning, when lot of people wait to see a change in their lives, and many more people always hope something when the year turns around. It is this hope and wait that keeps all people going.

I still remember how i used to celebrate my b'day during my childhood. We used to compete among our friends in buying cards for our near and dear ones but now thanks to the "E- WAY" of sending greetings and in this generation of 3G, oh sorry 4G its hard for the good old ways of sending your greetings through a lovely card to sustain.

It all starts on the previous night every year, and so it happened this year too. Thanks to the lovely roomies who have celebrated my b'day and half of he cake was on my face. Going to office on this day will be a little boring but why not when you have a team which always looks forward to every one's birthday with full enthu and of course waiting for the cake..:)

I wish all my friends, near and dear ones, my well wishers and everyone a very happy,prosperous,healthy,peaceful New year ahead.

Hope it brings success, happiness in every one's life.

As it has always been, it was a perfect beginning for the year ahead.

Welcome 2009...!!!
