Time to say goodbye....

Friday the 19/05/2006, would remain as one of those emotional days of life...

It was the last day of my project at the TCS- JNR premises.Though we all came in colourful outfits and smiled away to group photos it was very painful when i saw the house keepers removing the huge glass portraits that explained about the project, packing the gadgets, induction guidees and other process manuals being fed to the scrapper!

The project is being outsourced to another conmpany. It was like seeing a house cards toppling .... a project that has been nurtured by so many of us from its inception.
My first ever job..my first ever escalation..my first ever appreciation.. my first ever appraisal..my first ever promotion..

The friends we made, the fun we shared , the deadlines we met!
It was very painful to remove all the pinups of my place...
My cubicle was a cosy one! Right in the corner ...just a peek from my place , I could view the entire floor.... the ceramic board where i scribbled had to be wiped clean... the draws and cabinets had to be emptied... the collage of photographs of the UK trip had to be removed.

I would miss the sweet smell of shan's cofee, the knic-knacs that he brings when he knows that im stretching my body-clock, the wonderful security personnel who were always friendly ... the house keepers who make the workplace a fantabolus place....
And ofcourse the plush badmiton court.....the lawn thats so well maintained.

I will miss TCS JNR!

    Yes! JNR place is rather good. It is right next door to my place in Chennai. (Did u know the place is owned by SSI and was originally proposed as HQ and Chennai office of it)

    As for project end... these things happen, i guess. there r so many good-byes we have to say before others say the final good-bye to us.

    Oh really .... Vadapalani citizen huh? Yes, I did know that the premise is being leased...and from the grapevines i also learnt that the lease time is coming to an end and TCS has no intention of renewing it as they have built a plush facility @ Siruseri...
