Work tantrums

Hey blog, I am back. And yes, you guessed right. There are lots of things that are not going the way I would want it to go. Actually, to think of it, I shouldn’t expect everything to go the way I want it to go. I should be accepting all that comes my way. But guess it’s not the way I am. I should learn to accept life the way it is and not fight with it to change the way it’s meant to be.

There are one too many things that aren’t going the way I want it to. Firstly, my job. I don't know if I should be complaining or blaming the company for all of this. But yeah, 3 years in this company and I am frustrated to no end. Reasons?? Lots.
  1. 3 years in the company and I feel like I have been used and abused. This is the worst feeling to have. Once this feeling creeps in, it’s very difficult to get back to terms with your job.
  2. 3 years in the company and I already feel like I have given all that I could have given to the company.
  3. 3 years in the company and I already see no further growth in my personal career within the organization.

You must be wondering why, after having such good reasons to quit, I am still stuck here. Reasons?? Not many. Just one.

  1. I don’t want to move out as a writer. I don’t want to move out as a reviewer. I want to move out after being a part of the management. I do not want to move to another organization and sweat out another 3 years before I get into the management level. I have invested 3 precious years of my life here and I want it to bring fruit.

So what am I going to do about it? Well, there's isn’t much that I can do. Once again, too many problems but only one hope.

  1. Wait for the December appraisals. I have heard news about some “corrections” that are going to be made. Am hoping the “corrections” they make are justified and are in sync with the current market standards. If the “corrections” aren’t as good as I think I deserve, I'll start looking elsewhere. In the meantime, I'll read up books and take up a few courses (if possible) and make myself ready for the PMP certification.

That’s not the end of the stuff that’s not going right. Lots of other things. But, will talk about that later. People here just do not let me speak my mind. People interrupt in between. Lots of them. I'll tell u about it. But, maybe some other time.

To my love, with love

Dedicated to the love of my life..

I don’t know how to tell you this,
You bring to my life eternal bliss.
But I really want you to know..
Wherever you go, blindfolded, I’ll follow.

When I look at your eyes, so beautiful
Those big, round eyes, so graceful,
I swear you seem so celestial,
I am lucky you love me so ample.

When I look at those pink shapely luscious lips,
From the glass, the sweet wine you sip,
As a tiny little drop from the corner drips,
Yet again, my heart beat skips.

When you touch me with your smooth beautiful hands,
I dream of holding them all night, while walking on the sands.
I hear the sound of water hitting the shore,
Never would I have had a night better before.

If one wish of mine could come true,
I would never wanna bid you adieu.
In your arms I want to be,
Pondering why I love you so dearly.
