Alas, all good things come to an end. My vacations ended up yesterday. I had to head to office in the morning.
Though I was all ready to start, I didnt hurry up going to the office. There was no enthusiasm whatsoever. Took the 10.30 bus and then took another three conencting buses covering the northern part of ring road, finally ending up at office at 11.45. Not bad, it only took 1 hour 15 minutes this time.
The first thing i was HOPING was that I will not see the office premise.. I had dreamt that when I return from vacations, i didnt want to see the office building standing still ... I wanted it to have vanished and I wanted to see a plain ground, where few local kids are playing cricket...
uh hmm.. No, that didnt happen. the building is tall and gawking at me :( Ah, reality pricks.. Anyways now I have to walk in. the same old security guards, asking me the same old badge.. I flash the badge and walkin... take the elevator, get out of it at the fourth floor... any changes?? not at all.. the lift is having the same old music... everything is the same, sober old office.. let me see if there are changes in office cube.. at least i dont want to see the same old faces of those team members...
To add to the injury of my continued lack of luck, all those team mates are still there and working hard (or acting).. Oh my... no change at all...
Few smiling faces, coming towards and shaking hands yelling 'happy new year'... Ah, what happy new year? when everything continues to be the same? it is going to be yet another boring year...
Talk about lunch in the cafetaria, the whole thing sucks. no change in the food nor caterers.
my first official day of 08 at work is full of disappointments. I just wonder how the year ahead will be... hoping not to see many more disappointments.. :)
A long way to go in 2008. I am already waiting for this year's christmas time.
