People I am back with yet another twist
Ya I know u are sick of it ... I too am but hope this is the last one (as we did before this )
Actually the news is a bit stale but still i shud register it on the blog
I got recruited by IBM,Hyderabad. The intv call came out of nowhere. Actually it really is a mystery where it came from coz i never applied. The most believable theory is i suppose thru Naukri.com. If that is the case i shud thank them.
Well i guess i got the call (on fone) on 7th aug. Infact I had missed a call from the same number abt a week ago. Initially i thgt it was some kind of agency duping me in. But what the heck i said let us c
2 days later she calls me at 2pm and says be here by 4 for ur intv. Now that is called "phati"
well i managed to reach office (hitech) jst half an hr late. pretty convinced by now after seeing the logo on the building.
there was a minor test and after that an intv for 90mins . went well. the next day i called for follow up and she said i need to come down again (this was expected actually)
not late by much, this time the project leader from Bangalore intved me and later I supp the India head of the proj also got a taste of me. Now they affirmed that I was being offered the job. But life as it is threw some more twists and i recieved the actualy letter only by 18 or 19 ...
anyways this I suppose has spelt doom for BARC ... I regret that ... i had made massive plans of life in bombay ... and all the reasons i had mentioned bfr were rocking in my head. But IBM is inevitable... BARC cannot compare to it at all.
So people ...IBM it is going to be ... and i hope i am sure this time ... coz I hav time only till SEP 4 and even God needs more time to fabricate another twist.

Quoting Jerry Seinfeld
Seinfeld is the King
and this is the definitive proof of that
"There are many things you can point to as proof that the human is not smart. But my personal favorite would have to be that we needed to invent the helmet. What was happening, apparently, was that we were involved in a lot of activities that were cracking our heads. We chose not to avoid doing those activities but, instead, to come up with some sort of device to help us enjoy our head-cracking lifestyles. And even that didn't work because not enough people were wearing them so we had to come up with the helmet law. Which is even stupider, the idea behind the helmet law being to preserve a brain whose judgment is so poor, it does not even try to avoid the cracking of the head it's in."

Another twist in the tail :P
As I had urged previously not to write off the possible 'twist' just as yet.
one more has come along
TCS guys who had been cooling their heels off suddenly sprang back to life and hav shown some swiftness very uncharacteristic of them
now I hav a formal joining letter requesting me to come "report" on Sep 6th at 900am
as bad and loathable option it had been earlier, it has suddenly become very welcoming
so guys hold on the story is not over as yet.... "kya hoga nimmo ka" wait kare agle episode tak.
