Being Jobless...

Yes.. Finally I did it :). I'm at home. I am jobless.

This is summer time and lot of power cuts. Whenever power is on, I browse, look for something related to testing. Apply for jobs. Keep Naukri & Monster running on the browser from morning till evening. Get frustrated thinking that this is not what I wanted to do in this break. I wanted to spend lot of time on things that make me happy. Learn new songs, visit all places that I couldn't visit due to workload. All these ideas aren't working!!! I had read about the way people feel post-retirement. I think I can feel that way now :D.

Too many changes and too many decisions to be made at a time. Got 3 offers so far. One was without work-life balance. Another had good growth and had work-life balance. But was very far from home. 3rd one is nearer to my house, with same designation and may be equal salary (yet to be decided). Funny part of all these is, I am positive about the last offer. Do you know why I think its funny? Its because, the reason why I had quit my previous job is that I didn't get promoted. God knows how its going to work!!

Outside the compound, kids are humming "color color what color - which color do you choose".. I am singing "job job.. which job shall I choose". I confirm.. staying without job is not so easy.
