Hi,

Okay, so there are no demonstrations, no call for a strike, no threats of self-immolation, nothing, nothing at all… This is disappointing. Guess, I am to be blamed for this sad situation. I should have done better to publicize this event. Looks like despite my best attempts at spreading this news, not everyone has come to know about it. Well, better late than never, so here is this (spam) post to tell you that today is/was my last working day at Stylus.

1336 days back, I joined Stylus as a PHP developer (yes, you heard it right - PHP and not .NET). For the last (almost) four year, I was multi-tasking to my best abilities (phew, its tiring). I could be chatting with someone while being on the phone and checking those really funny forwarded emails or all the blogs that I am subscribed to. If this is not multi-tasking, wonder what will be… And oh, I forgot to mention - work.

No, am not saying that I will work while chatting, being on the phone, or reading those emails. Hey, am not that irresponsible to mix them up, so I would not work while I was busy with anything else (which was 80% of the time). Btw, 20% of my time at office was reserved for lunch and tea breaks.
The remaining time, I would be busy with work and only work. No wonder then that when I told Ranjit that I am supposed to be working for him, he immediately went looking for a dictionary and was for some strange reason looking very closely at the meaning of the word work. Guess he wanted to find a superlative for work, so that he could use that to describe me.

Moving away from Stylus was a tough decision. Life will be boring for some time. I will not be able to glance at the latest cricket score while walking around (specifically, I will miss all you guys who keep crickinfo always open). Will not be able to get the daily dose of latest movies and songs provided by Suthin. Will not have Anish to provide the latest updates on Chennai. Will not have Vinod to provide marital advice. Will not have Rama’s jukebox playing music. Amongst all this gloom, the only silver line I see is that I will not be around creating trouble for you guys ;-)

On a serious note though, it has been a great 4 years (well almost) that I spent at Stylus and its been fun. I will miss you guys, you guys rock!
