Life certainly is life. Do not ask me what this statement means. It's like saying "Varghese is Varghese". I never imagined that I would ever be in the middle of something so monumental. If recession was not bad enough, I have a career problem now.
This October I completed my 2 years in Satyam. What a journey it has been! With all honesty I can say that I enjoyed my time in Satyam. A project where there are no restrictions as long as you showed your work was the beginning. Being judged as one of the best associates in my project was and still is the highlight of my time in Satyam.
Much water has flowed now. Pictures seem brighter now, but there are still uncertainties. The major question with me, as, I believe, with other Satyamites, is what should our next step be. Should we leave Satyam in the state it is and watch as events unfold, or should we stay here, but have the lingering question about our future. Questions, not easy to answer. If only I could have a peek into the future and see the results of my actions.
I have learnt some lessons from this incident -
1. Only change is constant. An often used sentence, but mightily true. One time life was so stable, I never worried about my job. Infact, I had planned what my next step would be. And in the next instance, so sudden, life became a mess.
2. Do what you need to do, fast! Do the course you had planned to do, change your profile if you want do, but do not wait for a muhurtam.
3. What you plan may not always happen. Life changes so fast, so be flexible in accepting what you get.
I never imagined that I would be at a point so helpless, helpless to decide what my action should be. I am still a Satymite in my heart, but you cannot always let the heart make the decisions. I am going to be practical. If I feel good staying here, I stay, otherwise...
