So I'm once again back to ranting. I'm pretty sure most of you would've experienced whatever I tell here since it's so simple. So this is what happened: Let's consider, at work, I'm in team A and there is another team B which does almost the same activities as ours. It's just that today morning the first thing i heard from my lead is to go through the work done by two other of team B about how to perform the activity and such. Those two are like 1 and 3 years experienced. I'm a fresher who has been 4 months in this project. It's a simple thing but when i heard it first thing in morning, i just felt like I'm not doing my work properly or as efficient as the others. I thought my lead was happy with my results but somehow today i felt discouraged. It was so difficult just to finish this day with all these thoughts :-(

Happiness in Someone
They say happiness comes within us. But why can't I? I know that I should be happy and contented with my life because I have a loving family and can support us...
Dont worry it will pass..just try to improve..and ignore them..until unless you have made mistake..which you are allowed to do...when you are fresher. But you have to learn to ignore them complaining. With new project you will have new lead, also it is Lead's responsibility to teach you and make you comfortable, since you are fresher. No one knows everything..with time you will learn. Just ignore as much as possible.
ReplyThanks ! And yes I'm trying to improve and also like consider complaints as a scope for improvement but you know sometimes we just get disheartened π .. one such day.. and me being an overthinking person, this happens a lot.
ReplyI'm a overthinker too...until last year I was a fresher too... and I had my share of scolding from Mangers too..but never took that seriously.....cause you know its there jobs to...poke us again and again on small things...So don't worry.
If you don't mind me telling....where do you work..i mean which field. If I'm guessing...then IT...??
ReplyGood to hear from another overthinker !! Then it must be relatable for you i guess...and yeah, it's sort of IT
Replyyeahh I understand that....sort of IT means..?
ReplyIgnore that comment. It is IT only. I must've been lost in some other thought when i commented earlierπ
Replyohh..so you are WFH?
how are you coping with it..cause now we do more work then what we did in office?
Where are you from?
ReplyYes, it's WFH... that's why a little more stress kinda.. since the work hours somehow extends for 12 or 14 hrs. How abt u.. are u able to manage time
ReplyYess...WFH has given everyone more stress and everyone is putting more hours. Infact due to WFH my social life has gone into ruins.
Yeah I'm kind of managing my Working Hrs, from the beginning itself I have decided not not extend my Work beyond 8 in evening. No matter what. If there is more work I tell them I'll continue on this the next day, and When I was in Office it was 7.
I think you should do the same, Since you are fresher...Its your time to enjoy life.
ReplyWhere are you from? How long you have been using this?
ReplyYes, I'm trying to limit the hours now. I started using it probably 1 year back. But don't post often. It's a good place to vent out though without being judged
ReplyYeahh you do that...if you start practicing this from now...it will keep your office and outside life balanced.
And it is important to keep it balanced.
Yeahh it's a good place...I started only from last two months.
Which company do you work in??? Where are you from???
ReplyI don't think we should share the company details on an open forum. Let's just keep it anonymous... So it's only been two months since you started working or two months in this company
ReplyYeahh we should not do that.
NO NO I meant as in I started using this platform from last two months.
And about work its been 2+ yr since i started Working and i'm still in same company.
How's you weekend going?
BTW Happy Ganesh Chaturthi.
ReplyHappy Ganesh Chathurthi to you too !!! Hope it went well. I tried to do some cooking today.. made modaks, so yeah a pretty relaxing start to the weekend. Right now reading a book. How did your weekend start..
ReplyYou can cook Modaks..that is great...I don't know how to cook :(
Well I Just Bought the Modaks from Meethai Shop :D :D
What's the book?
Well I had to spend my weekend on my Laptop even though I thought not seating in front of screen fro the day. But fro yesterday evening I started Getting Blue Screen on it, So had to install every thing including OS. even now all is not finished. had to work on it tomorrow as well.
What else is going on with WFH?
when are they calling you back to offices?
ReplyThe book is The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F! It was gift and my friend demanded that I read this...
Oh not bad, you are trying to solve it on your own.. if it were me, i would just make a trip to the shop.
I don't think I will be called to office anytime soon.. From what I heard, probably another 2 months there is no chance of going to office
ReplyI think your last comment wasn't posted
ReplyI used the F word...so they are reviewing it...I was just saying...that a friend of mine gifted me the same book and I'm reading it as well. Well not right now. But almost every night before sleeping.
ReplyOh that's cool, i just started. Only one chapter done.. So did you like the book
ReplyI'm at third chapter
ReplyNot yet asleep.. a night person ?
ReplyNooo ππππ. I sleep at after 2 only...and this is happening at home when parents keep asking me to sleep at a little early.
I guess you are a night person too.π
ReplyI'm more of a morning person. But nowadays i have turned into night person π
ReplyWell there was a time last yr when I used to wake up around 5.30, daily for few months. If that count as morning person.ππ
ReplyWell i think we can consider it π€£ so until when do you sleep.. do you get 6 hours sleep ?
ReplyIf you say so, Then I can tell people I'm a morning person.
Well I don't care how many hours I sleep, but usually I do sleep 6 hrs.
But there is something I don't like which is related to sleeping. When someone disturbs me when I'm having a nice dream. And suddenly or something will wake me up and I'll not get to see what will.happen in my dream.
This has happened to me so many time that I try to have same dream next night by thinking of it again.
This is Weird for you????
ReplyI totally understand the agony.. it happens to me.. many times i miss the ending because of the smallest sound and then I spend the entire day thinking of all the probable ways the dream would've ended.
ReplyExactly... it is so much frustrating.
Sometimes I dream of
the person I literally want to dream about but then either alarm or something else ruins it for me.
Damnn these Alarms
ReplyLife is so unfair buddy !!! π€£
ReplyWhyyy?????? :( :(
ReplyThat was not on a serious note π
Replyhehehe
ReplyWFH has changed you as well like me
ReplyYes.. especially the weekends.. i just wanna spend more time outside of work π so every weekend, i stay awake hoping monday doesn't come
ReplyWho wants Monday to be back...do you know Microsoft is kind of testing 4 day week in japan.
Meaning three day weekend hurayyyπππ
ReplyReally... I hope it comes to India too and if i start a company, I'm going to give 3 days weekend !
ReplyI wish you the best for the Company..but I think I know Indians me being one...we dont give our 100% in 5 day week...do you think we will give 100%+ to get 3 day weekend.
Cause 4 day week demands too much from employee...take us...how we are complaining about WFH extra hours..
ReplyIf I start a company, that's a point we must focus on.. Not gonna happen because i don't plan to start a company π
ReplyNo one has seen the future..may be you could be a founder to some company...
I say let focus on who knows what future has stored in for us.
ReplyYeahh it's a good book. It gives different perspective to life and how we should be handling our life.
But there is one book I so much want to read. But I've not got it yet
Tried finding it at many place. But I could not find that.
ReplyOh which book is that
ReplyThe Art of War by Sun Tzu.
First translation edition in hardcover.
ReplyCheck out in amazon. It seems to be available
ReplyOhh yess it's there but not the edition I want. Actually this book was originally in Chinese, then I'm early 1900 some author translate it into English. That translated book is what I'm looking for it. I mean the same edition by same author.
Otherwise many have translated it into English.
ReplyAnyway thanks for looking up for me.
ReplyNo prob! Was curious myself as to like does amazon too doesn't have it π
ReplyYeahh it has many Evy the cheap duplicate ones. But you can't enjoy these books. Yes you get to read it but it doesn't give you that satisfaction.
ReplyYeah I agree. Tbh, not everytime I purchase a book I look at the edition and choose between hardcover/paperback but Reading a book is totally different from reading the same online print of the book.. Books do give a different feel..
ReplySometimes I do buy second hand books, it's those books which I just want to give one read. Also I borrow from friends.
Recently I bought 5 books of same series. I mean as in before covid.
Since they were costly I bought first 4 cheap and the latest book 5 original hardcover. It really was good. There was totally different reading experience from it.
ReplyWhich book is that
ReplyIf you know about Eragon...then it has 5 books 4 major book and last one is new like a off the series book.
You can look for it by "The Inheritance Cycle.
ReplyCool, let me check
ReplyI read them all, there is one scene in the end of book 4(this book is the end of story of this series)
This scene is so touching and painful involving main character I almost cried for it.
ReplyI used to read e book when I was in college, at that time there was issue of pocket money π°. Scarcity of it.
ReplyTrue, even i have had my share of books that i read online.. But now even though I've books, i simply don't get to read it. One of the reasons being troubled mind. But now I'm settling back to old me.. so back to books too
ReplyWhat kind of troubles???
ReplyI just started in my project and i wasn't sure this is right project for me. Even now I'm not sure but I've learnt to adapt. Honestly speaking, i don't know if my decisions were right... I had plans to study abroad but then i got campus placed and then i changed my plan... i don't know if all these decisions were right. At that time, i felt like this job was some kinda destiny or something. Something just made it feel like a magic then.. like it came to me, if you understand what i mean..
Replywe have to adapt and with time change the compnay which we desire. But still there will be this issue, cause no project is same. you might have got first good project, but if you get next project bad then there is that problem also.
I'm in same project from begining, and I'm feeling stuck in it, every friend of mine who was working on this either got new project or they switched.
For abroad study plans..I think in this situation no one wants to go out of country due to COVID. But I suggests you gain at least 1.5 yr of experience and then apply for higher study abroad. That will give you some advantage, also foreign university require minimum 1 yr of experience in some programs.
A friend of mine did the same thing..got 1.5 yr of exp and then moved to canada for masters.
I know the feeling of getting Job, its like a weight lifting off our shoulder.
BTW what course did you wanted to do from abroad.
ReplyYeah now that i got into job, i will stay and get some experience and then probably study. I wanted to get something related to EE with a few CS topics..
So can't you like apply for a different project to move over ? Only the company can decide ??
ReplyI could try but the asshole Manger won't do it. Already there is a serious tension going on between him and me
But now i'm preparing to switch company. Enough of this company.
ReplyI love books in hardcover, and the smell of new page. It's very intoxicating.
What about you...what else do you read.
ReplyMe too.. i like the smell of old books and also rain. The previous book I was reading was P.S.I love you.. I actually prefer light reads
ReplyYeahh paper smells very nice in books. Specially old books.
PS I Love you. I've seen this movie. But I've not read this book.
I mostly like fantasy fiction, but I can read anything.
ReplyI also like romantic novel as well. here is a confession don't tell anyone. I have read all Twilight Books and watched all its movie.
Have you seen this movie??? PS I Love You.
ReplyI haven't watched either of the two. I haven't watched Titanic too π
ReplyWhatttt???
Not even Titanic...where have you been...did you just come from Mars yesterday.
I think People of our generation were so much excited to see this movie...ofc the reason was different.πππ
But you should see it. And then you can answer the question many ask "Could Jack have survived by getting on with Rose on That Wooden piece."
I saw Twilight because it had Vampires but it was different kind of vampire movie. But I liked all parts of it. After watching movies I read the novels.
ReplyYup, it's a secret that I just landed on Earth like a month back. Keep it a secret..
Also I think I'm stopping myself from watching it for the very same reason - everyone has watched it !!! I have this weird habit of not watching movies which people speak so much about... a real weird habit of mine because sometimes i do watch movies again for the reason that everyone has watched it.. Clearly I just don't understand this habit of mine myself !!! So wouldn't blame you π
ReplyWell I can certainly die in peace. I meet a Martian. I meant talked to one.ππ
I do this too sometime, I have not watched many bollywood famous movie, just because everyone is so excited I don't want to that excited for that... it's this simple.
I understand ver well.
ReplyBut you should watch Titanic. I strongly suggest it. In fact you can watch it tomorrow. It's Sunday as well.
ReplyAlright, let me check if i can find it in netflix or maybe prime
ReplyNicely done π.
ReplyI don't think it's available in netflix though, just had a look
ReplyWait I'll post the link here in morning and you can watch it tomorrow online.
ReplyI just checked it is available on Hotstar.

ReplyYou sure are hell bent on making me watch it π€£ but guess what, i spent my entire day eating and sleeping! Just like that, weekend is over..
Maybe i should just check online, must be available somewhere
ReplyYeaah I'm going to make you watch it, until you do. i'll keep reminding you of it.
