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...
