Horror I went through..!!

Was talking to a friend of mine when suddenly the topic went into the gloomy days when I was doing my internship and what all I had to go through. I guess it just brought back a lot of crap which I had stored and buried somewhere in my head...
It just made me hate my 1st manager even more.
I still remember the day when he called me at 1 in the night on a Friday .i was still up since we were celebrating my sisters bday and planning the whole day. He called and asked me to go to office on Saturday and just fix some stupid issue which took almost the whole day and we had to cancel the other plans.
Another time He made me to come to office when I was running a high fever and was on sick leave.
Another time he made a few of us stay the whole night in office and we went back home at 7 in the morning and then had to be back by 12 in office and work...!! Almost 3 out go 5 weekends every month I was in office..!! I screwed up my personal life because of him .

I still remember another instance when after getting converted early he made me attend a beginners training on what I had almost finished. Meanwhile my internship project even though in the last stages was not complete. He called me one day when was in the training in the evening and asked me to finish the project alongside in 4 to 5 days and the person that was supposed to help me in it was going to Paris in 2 days. He made me come to office after my training finished at 5 ...take a bus to reach office which took 45 to 60 mins to reach office since the 2 places were about 25 km far.
Once reaching office I used to work till 12 in the night... To finish the project on his made up deadline..thankfully I was able to finish it on time .
What a relief it was..!!!
But definitely it made me understand the power of hate..!!! And how powerful it can be..!! I used to despise this man to the core and still do...
There were a thousand more instances where I had to crush the blood out out of my body to provide him the last drops to suck on.... But m happy it's over... And I am in a much better place now..!!

Being Professional..!!



Well after the last super awesome devil of a manager finally i guess god had mercy on me and i found a nice human and humane manager. Somehow i never believed that working with a manager could be so much fun ever.
He was by far the best manager i have seen. I guess it was the first time that i could look up to someone for advice. I believe that jut like there are really few good men, similarly there are very few good managers. And the chances of you landing up with one are 1 in 100.
That just meant that i was supposed to deal with 98 other managers which were satan's minians.
I believe that sometimes change is good and sometimes its weird but you can never claim change as a bad thing.Since if its good you enjoy it but if its bad then you learn form it.
So just like people say that good people die young similarly my good manager went away.
He didn't die so much but his team was changed and i got a new manager.
      Til here the story isn't that bad, rite..? But wait till i tell you who was supposed to be my new manager.It was my 1st manager's real brother..!!!
It was like i did not know if god had his hand over my head or was it the devil..!! This change came really unexpectedly for all of us but for me it was more like a tsunami which blew away my happy thoughts along with my dedication. But i guess that is life..!!
Nothing here is to stay. Anything that you see now can very easily be gone tomorrow.Getting attached to someone in your corporate life is just gonna hurt you in the end.I guess that what they mean by being professional..!!!

My Devil didnt wear Prada..!!



Ever heard of Satan Personified....!! Well my last manger was maybe not as divine as the satan but definitely was one of his most degenerate Imps. He could glorify your own sacrifice to the point that you would go to it smiling wearing a flower garland and it would be too late for you once you found out.
He controlled your life..!!and by life i dont mean the 9 to 5 life....he CONTROLLED YOUR LIFE..!!! Anything you did had to be approved by him...there was no such thing as your alone time...it was all his time... or no time..!!
If you wanted to go out on the weekend you better take permission from him.!!
You are sick...you better not be..!!!
You are dead...!! you better resurrect yourself before he gets his hands on you in the afterlife..!!!
He would suck everyone's blood like he owned it and he would actually enjoy the taste like lemonade...
If you heard closely you could hear yummy noises coming from his cubicle when he was giving his year end review to people..!!
I always heard people saying that if a heaven and hell exists ...its on this earth...
Well.. i dont know about Heaven but i definitely believe in Hell now..!!
He very well might be responsible for half my baldness..!!!
But i must say that what he started definitely make me quit being an atheist.... I would pray to all the gods to save me..!!
Which they finally did by firing him..!!

Well in the end i must say that we all know some evil boss whose whole purpose of existence is to end yours...But Every cloud does have a silver lining... and all tyranny does come to an end in the end... Forget Sadamm and gadaffi.... We..the IT Industry crowd..are the most oppressed crowd of all..
Democracy is just a myth in the imagination of the eternal dreamer...

But this tyranny does come to an end...Just as it did in mine...So if you are standing on the edge of a bridge just preparing to jump because your boss insulted you in a staff meeting.... Hang on... Be patient..and trust me it will be over soon..!!!
