A decision..

Well..yes... I am back to the bad world of blogging after a long void... "Void" a nice word to use at any place, be it programming, a situation.. your life... use it adjectively.. use it compositely.. or use it verbally.,,never to miss it literally... ... it will always stand to its ground... not as miraculous as the "F.." Word...(I have seen a youtube video which illustrates the beautiful use of "The word" in different situations...)..
So now again.. to fill in void in my life.. which gets created after I being ported/deported to onsite.. well was it my decision... ? Don't know.. people back home are commenting... on my lustfulness... or my ignorance.. or if I say.. on my greediness .. of accepting this option.. while I had many better bright future aspects.. many good companies... a baggage full of bright future.. which one can only dream of... but I denied them one by one.. slowly after considering, reconsidering.. and again considering.. for many sleepless nights....
then after which I took a U turn.. which many of you.. will never acknowledge.. I will talk each one of it.. now and will provide my perspective to it...

The great marathon has started shortly before the navratra's, when after getting into a long tussle with my senior, I taken a vow to prove him and the other's that I still have the spark well within me.. then started the hard work to crack the technical interview.... Once I am over with the intiial dormant phase... I did fairly well... and cleared some top interviews... and bingoo.. by deewali.. I had 4 offers in hand... one among them was staying back and going to onsite... others.. one with 1 of the best to work for in Noida.. 1 at hyd... and 1 at Bangalore....

So starting with Noida, I get pissed of by the HR manager attitude at the interview day itself... the way they treated an employee.. and the kind of their mentality of not caring a person's emotions and the professionals values... I felt bad.. but I didn't give him any negative vibes...
They offered me the position.. and the perks... and had given me a week's time to join them after taking 13 days to offer... I again talked to them.. but again the HR is too bad... I thought of myself... Am I going to a company truly based on my skills.. or is it a charity?

I asked ppl over there about the work.. and what I got from them was really not encouraging.. it's the similar work which I am doing here and not enjoying ... then I thought of myself.. will I enjoy the same there? or Am i just going there because for most of us that is the dream company.. and people are saying.... go vikas go.... ? I don't know somehow I was not able to convience myself for the same.. ? Even the package was not so great... I comapred it with other things and I found that it's a 5 years gamble.. do I need it now.. or would like to give myself one more chance to try and see.. if I can do anything else.... ? I gave myself one more chance... but I was knowing that it will close 1 door for me in future... so be it......

I opted for Onsite... just because I wanted to see.. if I can provide some options to my family both financially and personally... If I can built a competency which will open doors in future.. I think it's not bad to be selfish once..in your life.. so this time I did exactly the same.. heard what I wanted for myself..... and take the chances.. I know some of you think this a my wildest mistake.. or some think that I have taken advantage of the situation... but it's always easy to comment on others ....

I know it's NOT THE POPULAR CHoice but I know it was important for me... if I succeed in it.. It has golden things in store for me.. but if not...
