LIFE UPDATED

Get up early… reach training centre at 9:00… start ur daily chores, which are check ur mails… do orkut and chat on msngr… our company provides us with inexhaustible net accses. Sit there till 6:00 p.m. eat, browse net, sleep n then go back to ur respective HOMES.
This is my new life… or this is just the prelude of the new play which started 15 days back. The main characters of this prelude are I, the monotonous trainers, my colleagues and most important the coffee wala who serves the most delicious coffee on earth. I was always affrighted of entering the corporate world and now I know that it’s actually scarrrrrrrrry… at least the training part of it is a real shit.
When our company people came for recruiting us, we were told about the huge and beautiful corporate edifices our company owns. Oh I saw them… they r actually huge… but they don’t have enough space to accommodate the trainees… so, we r ditched in a small training centre, where the ac is killing… but people say it has just begun, you will adjust in a while.
Accommodation in this city is a great problem… you have to pay 10 months advance for a flat. Imagine such a thud in ur pockets before you get ur first salary (which is far less than what we expected)… but then its just the starting… things will get better later…
After searching for long I finally shift in a PG… where the food is real, real shit. But our company has got a nice food court… so after finishing my training(daily chores) I go to the huge building which I know as my company to have dinner. And after that when I try to catch an auto to my PG I don’t get one… so I walk up to my PG… but its ok… its just the starting…
After being so vexed by the training I thought that weekends would be fun… had heard so much about this city… I step out of my PG a Saturday noon and enter a mall… I had never ever seen so much of crowd in any of the malls… Gosh I felt suffocated in a huge air conditioned mall. But then I thought it’s just the prelude… once I get into it everything is gonna b fine and I hope it gets fine… but one thing is for sure this new play is not so much of fun… school and college were far better than this or may be its just the beginning…
