After 4 years 1 month and 10 days working at firm, in which i know almost everybody in support services whom we need in day to day life and leaving the company and also the people whom i know very well and keep going for 'T' and lunch together is a bit sad. But no regrets in the decision, with a new hope in the mind knowing very well about the new company in which my buddies of college and frnd who joined the first job together with me, is an advantage.
I am into the organization with new hope, expecting new challenges, to learn new skills, working with new clients and exploring new opportunities. In this firm we also have to contribute to the firm apart from what we do technically. They are know as firm initiatives.
In my previous post it is all about will go or will not go.. but i decided that will someday go. now i am out of reach of that someday, as if i need to go abroad for longterm it takes a year in the company to get the eligibility for visa. And to know the process, to build the rapo with the managers whom i work under.
The new hope is all about the experience which i can get while working in the new company, which is well know for lot of factors.
Be it be the employee friendliness, open door policy, counselor policy for reviewing etc. Life is all about new hopes, compromises at times. With all the hopes and joined the firm i am geared up to show new enthu and work hard till i get a good name.
As one of my frnd said recently that people who work for 4 and more years in a company need not work more technically as they are already proved themselves. But if you switch to a new company then you have to again start you experience of work from 0.
So, i am going to start from a big zero and work hard to sharpen my skills, show cause my self to everybody with whom i work, to reach the new heights. After that if there is a chance of someday, then will plan accordingly........
Be Optimistic is the mantra for now ..........!

Will go ... Will not got
The caption of the post describes the confusion of deciding about something, which people who are close to me would know better. yes, its about whether i will travel abroad once again with my lady or not. But, sometimes i do think that if you stop keep on thinking or disturbing urself with one thing, it would never reach you. Once you wholeheartedly feel about it then, you can easily reach you goal.
One year back i came to my mother land with an impression that i came back for a short trip and i would leave abroad with another opportunity soon after my marriage. But, things have changed pretty fast even in this search for an on-site opportunity i didn't thought that, it has been 1 year since i came here. Still there is a little hope at somewhere in a corner of my mind that one day i will travel again.
Always thinking about it and always trying for it is making my mind not to concentrate on other things like happiness in life.
Once i started being happy, it's not will go .. will not go ... but the slogan now would be will someday go....

Trip to US
I thought about me going to the US one day but i never thought it would come a bit early when i change my project. I was waiting for a chance but had some concerns to stay for one more month, which i did. Then got the visa as simply i couldnt even imagine.
About my trip, i was about to board our national airline(name not be mentoined, think u'll know when u read this post) where i had to wait for 2 hours in the airport bcoz of the delay of the flight. And i met person who was of my flight and coming to same city where i am going for CHICAGO. He was telugu guy, so i was comfortable speaking to him in my own language. And bcoz of me leaving hyderabad there was a huge rainfall on that day, first time in hyd i have seen live with my own eyes ? cars were floating on road, my cab driver was intelligent and took me to the airport ontime. Atlast we had to board the flight and went to mumbai, had to board the international flight. Finally into a boeing (even this is first time in my life) but not so clean but looks like an international flight, lots of indians and foriegners too.
And the flight was 15mins delayed bcoz of us, who were coming from Hyd. And sat with the telugu guy, we shared our exp.. he was about to do his PhD in the US, so had a chat about US and the place we gonna live blah blah. Finally the flight started to leave Mumbai , heading to Frankfurt where we had a stop, the food was good as the breakfast was in indian style.
saw the hindi movies they played in the big screen in the plane, didnt got a chance to look out bcoz mine was a aisle seat and even the windows were closed. i didnt know when slept but had a sound sleep, and my co passenger woke me up for the food and we had something which was in indian style too.
I heard a lot specials about the frankfurt airport form my frnd, but it was really good, at the time of landing and take off, bcoz i didnt had time to see the airport bcoz we had t stay in a hall where we are not even allowed to call outside unless u have a calling card or international credit card.*
suddenly i thought of calling my home and my beloved ones, since i have a credit card which is VISA and valid internationaly,went to try that out but, didnt know the operation and came back not to try it and fail, to let me credi card there.But, looking at me some the guyz came there and tried with their VISA cards which worked. Later, i thought i would try it , my turn came i inserted the card and try to dial the number, but the machine was responding , after some trials, tried to remove the card, (:() which got stuck in the machine, i tried for sometimes, later my frnd who was travelling with me took the risk, and co-passengers tried, i had to call the airport staff who did know the operation to repair or open the machine, they said need to call the service provider for that, they didnt had any tool though (like cutting plier or plucker) one of my co-passenger tried with his hands who was basically a mallu, who saidhe would give try , thank god it worked and the time is up. we had to board the plane again,the food they served aftr frankfurt worse than ever in my life.. i dont i have took an indian dish, eventhough it didn had the exact ingredients...
And took another nap and finally arrived 30mins short of my destination.believe if you travelling first time in an international flight, try to get a window seat ... the captain was annoucing to watch the chicago DOWNTOWN... window is three seat away from me but i tried to look at the window which is not possible and i tried even to getup and lookat the window which is in the emergency exit place, which was not possible bcoz we had buckle up our seat belts...
OOOOffff... this was my expression when i am standing at a long long immigration queue , which took morethan an hour.... my security check was pretty cool as i said i dont have valueables and eatables with me ....and came out with my luggauge.. looking for a long guy about 6' 3'' of height and beside him should be a thin guy who was my manager(....) i could see a man looking for someone with a black cap on his head and wearing a short suddenly i thought he is the man i have already i met in INDIA, my onsite co-ordinator.. but didnt dare to call him or go towards him.. as everybody in the airport are in the same attire.. i said Bye to my co-passenger... whose name was not disclosed earlier(Shashikanth, with whom it was gr8 travelling).. And that tall guy saw me and shouted...my name .. . .Deepak ... Deepak ...Oh god .. so he is the man i have met .... so he would take me to the destination..a thin guy as expected ... came to me and said i i'm so and so in a polite way... and started talking in a jovial way.. i didnt expect a manager to be like that.. but he is..and adivised me to take a half day of rest which i couldnt do.. i had to take my bath... and took my calling card which was purchased on the way to my hotel... and my manager suggested me to take the card.. so that i can call home.... the hotel room was gr8 ... really...gr8 ... watched TV that was Olympics time... and ordered a pizza for the night and had it .. slept at 9 O clock ........................
That was my first international flight experience .. which i thought would be really gr8,, but was a series of incidents for me ........

change is good
I thought my life will be miserable or so mechanical when I get into job, after completing B.Tech. And I also thought that I may not have my close friends with me and I might have to search for new friends which is a tough thing to me bcoz, not always you can get good friends. But, it happened the other way, as soon as I got placed in Hyderabad I am happy that my friend is working in Hyderabad. After my learning program has been completed there were lots of weekends which I have spent happily with my friends, roaming around in Hyderabad most of the times to the same place but with a different perspective. Days passed with an express speed.
Good news for me was another best friend came to Hyderabad after 8 months since I joined my work. And he joined our company, bad news was he is in support and not all weekends he will be with us. I thought of my engg. Life and remembered all those memories with my friends.
And in office, I thought it will be like a cage or some cave where you don’t have a scope to make friends and enjoy working. But, I was wrong then…
My workplace is so gr8 I am comfortable with my colleagues, I feel I am in a comfortable zone bcoz there is no language problem with the people around me. And two of them impressed me and they became my friends and started sharing personal matters too. I am enjoying my work and feeling gr8 to be with my friends in office. Finally what I wanted to say is, even my life is changed lot of improvements came into my life and I learnt how to find out good friends from touch me not friends.

Looking at my Life
friends, on this new year day i want to express my thoughts about my life, which is slowly getting transformed. This is my first blog and first post so, excuse if any mistakes.
That was one of my usual saturdays, i woke up at the usual time at 7.ooam... i had work to go for an service center to rectify some error in my mobile. And i thought the service center may open at 10.30 amor 11 am. So, i had to get ready like a tortoise. And i started to go by 9.30 am from my place. And went there and made my work done and upgrade my mobile software and by that time it was 12.30 am. After that i dont know wat to do. . . then came the thought that my life is getting changed a bit... because my best friend used to call me and take my appointment for the day and we used to spent the weekends like that.
he used to fight with others about my presence with him. But, on that day he was out of country .i felt a bit lonely and thought about my life once. . . in my college days i used think like, everybody in my class was a good friend of mine and used to go with them and spend some time with them, gradually i got to know that it was not friendship, it was just a show off. so, after finishing my graduation and looking for a job i learnt a lot about ,how to behave with people and all from my best friend and one of my senior friend( who was my father's friend's son). I used to share everything with everybody whom i think like good. But, they were not like, what i thought about them. When i used to say something secret, it would go around everybody and the same comes backe to me. And gave me a good name that i used to spread news. And now if i look in to my dairy.... i am just talking to less than 10 friends and just sharing things with my best friend, only...so, my life has been transformed to lot more a matured one rather than a friendly one.
