The Bangalore Phobia………

Bangalore city , the IT Hub of India.

A place where a software professional can reach great heights of career. A land of extreme professionalism. Though there is so much about this city, I have a ‘bangalore phobia’ , one of its own kind , which has an intensity more than any other phobia I suffer from like ‘thundering’ , ‘rats’ …… etc etc.

I pursue a software career in a company in Goa, and believe me my salary is not as fascinating as that of a bangalorian s/w professional but it manages to keep me content till the end of every month ! : ) at least that’s the case…’’aaj tak’’ !!! ;)

Can anyone tell me Y ?? ?? y this bangalore phobia ??! I can t tell …… its just there … need to set it free … but every attempt to do this has failed and further intensified it………….Sigh!!!!!!!

My sister being a bangalore citizen , has been the lone reason for me to visit it at least once in a year…!! [actually its her lovely kids !! ] J

Moment my goa bus enters this city .. believe me my heart beats really fast ……. L

Wat is it abt this place that scares me???

is it the CROWD?? … that makes me feel like some miserable ant. Yea…!!! … it questions me : ‘’Are u fit enuf to stand amongst the enormous crowd of s/w geeks roaming around the streets ???’’’’

…………. and at any point of time my answer is …. ‘Maybe no !! Not Yet! ‘

I always wonder ……… will I ever be !? may be not till I actually stay there.

About my attempts to drive away the phobia…… they merely involve my not so serious job hunting tasks……I don’t remember when I had updated my resume last on the job site !!! Eh…!!! Ridiculous na !!?? … coz I knw every professional in my field must do this …just to know his/her worth in the market !! the JOB MARKET !! Mayb when im completely bored of my work here …I’ll begin the JOB HUNT!!!

No matter how many months of experience I possess…. I will always feel its not enuf … is this happening to me only , OR … ‘aur koi hai!??! Jisko aise hi feel hota hoga !?!?!? ‘ pata nai !! … khair jo bhi ho !!

Goa’s charm , seems not to be ready to leave me …most of all I wud always prefer coming back to my house and having dinner with my family…So what… if I have to compromise a little on my salary here…. ? Tats ok with me !! :P

Lets see what more life has in store for me …. May b one fine day I get the chance to have a taste of jobbing in a metro city !!

Take Care all of u….. J
