Finally I got a second round call from a company…ya I’m looking for a change and looking for some good EXCITING offers (no puns involved, its purely professional offers am talking about)…imagine, MEEEEEEEEEE getting a second round call, the last time I cleared any interview was some 1 year back and they rejected me based on my company being their strategic partner. Yaar yeh meri company wale bhi har kisike strategic partner ban jate hai to meri kya galti hai. So I was just amazed that this HR gal again called me (usne abhi tak mujhe itni baar call kar diya hai ki mujhe tension hogaya hai ki kahi yeh log human trafficking me to involved nahi hai and mujhe Japan me illegally transport karne wale ho, as it is a Japanese MNC aur waha waise bhi Sex Ratio is very bad…nahiiiiiiiiiiiiii) and asked how was my interview, I thought that the interview panel (it was of 3 member team) has actually told her that NEVER EVER entertain this gal again in life, she is shameless dumb with over rated experience of working with Google & SDN(our SAP forum) and who is the last person they want to be in their office, I have actually told them for one answer that I don’t know the answer but if such scenario will come I’ll search in SDN (and the interviewer actually laughed or choked , I was on phone so cant distinguish the sound and will prefer it to be a laughing sound) . I as usual in my Official tone said, its u who have to tell me and not me (kya dialogue marti hu na main time par)… so she laughed again, I was really sure ki beta NCR jane ka tera sapna sapna hi rah jayega and tujhe yehi issi Cubicle me baith kar aise hi blog likhna padega jindagi bhar…aur teri pehli company teri last company hi rahegi (yeh bhi mera hi dialogue hai, bas maine socha tha ki beech me 5-6 company badal kar wapas yaha aajaongi, ab aisa koi option najar nahi aaraha hai).
She said: Oh, he he he!!!(My way of expressing her laughter, pata nahi mujhe sun kar itna kyu hasti hai, meri awwaj itni kharab to nahi hai, ya phir kahi wo…….)… then also what will u say about it?
Me: I’ll rate it to be a good discussion (interview agar bura ho to hamesha discussion kahna chahiye, aisa mujhe mere manager ne kaha tha 1 baar, humare yaha har koi chahta hai ki main Company chod kar bhaag jao that’s why they keep giving me tips, imagine I discussed my interview with my Practice vice-head on chatting? And he gave me tips to do better next time, unhe bhi pata tha ki kuch nahi hone wala is ladki ka)
She: He he he!!! Ya it was actually a nice discussion, they really liked ur attitude. (haa beta, sdn se chori karke kaam karne me attitude hi chahiye waise bhi 1 IT engg ka yeh dharma hai ki wo CTRL F, V, C and Google ke bina koi kaam na kare)
Me: Thanks.(Ab kah bhi do ki ur time is up, go and look for some other job).
She: So do u have any plans to go to ur home town in next week? (Humara pehli meeting me hi discussion hogaya hai family, hometown and relationship status ke bare me, oh my…kahi maine usse koi galat signal to nahi diya na?)
Me: No, not before Holi (If I’m in India, my manager actually prefer me having all festivals in UK, so may be am again back to UK on holi).
She: oh, so are u free tomorrow? (yaar agar ladka hota to main kahti haa, par yaar ladki ko…I know ladke to bina pitaji ki madad se mujhe nahi milne wale, but still….) we can have a second round of discussion.(Oh My! Me getting an offer for second round in the world’s 3 largest IT consultancy service Company that also with in 12 hours…see the change of image of company within seconds).
Me: Well I guess that should be fine with me, but can u tell me the time as I’m busy tomorrow( ya I have to book tickets and all those stuff for weekend, have to write another blog and have to read Bankelal, Dhruv and Pinki.)
She: Tomorrow anytime will be fine (beta yeh to pakka trafficking me involved hai nahi to mera kidnap plan hai, kahi kal inke office me mujhe kidnap kar liya jaye and mere papa se meri ransom ke liye phone kiya??? Papa to kahenge, le jao issen aur isse apne pass rakhne ka and iski bakwaas sunnne ke liye main extra paise dunga), u tell me what will be convenient for u?
Me: Well u tell me (My way of showing that I’m very much from Lucknow, and I respect what u say). I guess 10:00 will be fine (isse late agar gayi to mere delivery manager ko baat pahuch jayengi).
She: Ya that’s fine , waise bhi its just a fitment interview for ur roles & responsibilities, what u be doing here and some discussion with the practice head. We can close it tomorrow, and then u can get offer letter by tomorrow or Monday and we can close the issue.
Me: Thanks
(Beta yeh to pakka mera kidnap karne wali hai ya kisine mere naam ki supari bheji hai isse tabhi sara ISSUE kal tak PHINISH… )
Issiliye priy pathako (Respected Readers) agar aapme se kisine yeh supari uthayi hai aur agar aapko maine kabhi bhi koi dukh diya hai to please mujhe maaf kardo, main kabhi bhi koi blog nahi likhungi and kuch bura nahi karungi. Mere to papa bhi nahi bachane aayenge and aadhi se jyada junta pakka kaju ki barfi bategi mere gayab hone par. Agar aapka koi plan hai to please mujhe mail mat bhejna and main yaha Basis, ABAPer, BW Consultant, Informatica Resource, Tester, sare kaam karke apni life kaat lungi aur waise bhi Yeh after all meri pehli & last company hai.

सीने में जलन आंखों में तूफ़ान सा क्यों है
सीने में जलन आंखों में तूफ़ान सा क्यों है
इस शहर में हर शख्स परेशान सा क्यो है
I was as usual making most out of my Friday , watching TV, playing basket ball( ya my new, in fact our room’s new fad) and making plans what to do this weekend with my room mates, that suddenly in one of the talent show, I guess in Little champs, I heard this song. Listening to this song after so many days, last time I heard on AIR FM some 6 months back, I filled with totally different emotion; I searched on Raga, heard this song and in office today searched for its lyrics.
सीने में जलन आँखों में तूफ़ान सा क्यों है
इस शहर में हर शख्स परेशान सा क्यों है
दिल है तो धड़कने का बहाना कोई
धून्धे पत्थर की तरह बेहिस-ओ-बेजान सा क्यों है
तनहाई की ये कौन सी मन्जिल है रफीको
ता-हद्द-ए-नज़र एक बयाबान सा क्यों है
क्या कोई नयी बात नज़र आती है हम में
आईना हमे देख के हैरान सा क्यों है
So true and so right for today’s fast paced life. May be again the birds of same feather flock together concept or everyone of our age is actually going through this phenomenon; that every single person I know have actually felt the emotions of this song sometime or another.
The reasons for this can be countless, may be we are homesick, or may be we are not satisfied with what we are or may be we always expect a lot from life, giving it a room to hurt in back, or may be we have actually become too manipulative that we want everything to be customized to the full extent causing a lot of pain if its not done. All those forwards reminding us of our past, days of school, days of childhood bring back a sweet memory, but what memory are we making now? A bitter memory. We are living to work nowadays rather than working to live. How many times actually have we done something which brought a genuine smile to our face, how many days have it been when playing was actually playing in the sun with friends, not playing on PCs a solo game. How many times going out for a cuppa of coffee was actually for spending a good time with friends rather than to avoid the pangs of loneliness or How many times have been come out of that remote control life and have seen stars brightening the sky? There are plenty of how many which I can think of and still numerous will remain untouched.
May be in the hurry to catch the train for success we have missed the bus of genuine friendship, love & some warm humane relations. But some how I’m glad I have friends, who have always been there for me and who have not let me have so many how many in my life.
दिल धून्धता है फिर वही फुरसत के रात दिन
बैठे रहे तसव्वुर-ए-जाना.न किये है
दिल धून्धता है फिर वही फुरसत के रात दिन…
जाडो की नर्म धूप और आँगन मे लेट कर
आंखो पे खीच कर तेरे आन्चल के साए को
औन्धे पडे रहे कभी करवट लिए हुए
दिल धून्धता है फिर वही फुरसत के रात दिन…
या गरमियो की रात जो पुरवैया चले
ठंडी सफ़ेद चादरों पे जगे देर तक
तारो को देखते रहे छत पर पडे हुए
दिल धून्धता है फिर वही फुरसत के रात दिन…
बर्फीली सर्दियों मे किसी भी पहाडी पर
वादी मे गून्जती हुई खामोशिया सुने
आंखो मे भीगे भीगे से लम्हे लिए हुए
दिल धून्धता ही फिर वही फुरसत के रात दिन…
