Omg I never thought that I’m going to be so jobless after having a "real" job :P Me and my equally jobless friend have been continuously chatting on "sametime", ya thats what the TCS chat engine is called, coz maybe we all get bored at the sametime n so want to chat at the sametime or any idiotic interpretation that you can think of, doesn’t really matter! The bottom line is that we both are highly bored, and not only today, but every single day! Not that we are dying to work or anything, but wish there was "something nice" to do, and the "nice" is, doing any God damn thing on the planet other than wasting time and life in office like this! Shit, all the beautiful dreams we had about this over hyped life, the so called, "work life" are broken into tiny miny pieces, so tiny that the naked eye can’t even see them anymore. There is no fun sitting in front of the comp for 9 hours, or more, but never less, stare at your nearby associates who in turn are so dedicatedly staring at their desktop screens as if they have achieved everything in life, all their questions have been answered, they have achieved the ultimate enlightenment! But again I fail to understand why are we working here, we are paid peanuts for sure, not even J of job satisfaction is getting fulfilled, there are no friends here who we are doing vellagiri with, hence there is absolutely no reason why any sane person should be working here. Yet all of us wake up early morning (or late at night, or any odd hour for that matter, depending on our stupid meaningless shifts) and drag ourselves to office, only to waste 9 precious hours of our lives! We know that tom is going to be no diff than yesterday, other than the fact that we’ll bitch about the company and the people here a little more than we did the previous day!
But amidst all this, there is this 1 thing which makes these 9 hours pass easily. And thats chatting with my equally jobless friend!! hehehe! So we are back to square 1 :) chatting with him for 9 hrs straight has defiantly made both of us come closer, bond more! We were pretty good friends before "sametime" came to our life, but now it’s just so much better! We share each others happiness, sadness, problems everything, everyday! cheer each other up, crib together, take each others case ( ok he takes my case :P ),talk on the silliest topics like the smileys in the emoticons list, our love lives, our future 5-10 yrs from now, which defiantly seems like a pipe dream! :) But we don’t care whether its real or virtual, we are simply happy talking about it to each other, understanding each other n liking each other for who we really are!
He is someone who is a MUST friend in everyone’s life, and im lucky he is there in mine, that too pretty much at the top!
He is surely my silver lining! :)
