For that one just-another-day in the office #LWD (2-B of 2)

Prologue: 

Part 1:   The Mumbai Story

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                      ***  Part 3: Bang with Bangalore ***

This morning I woke up early and decided to take my bike to reach office which I usually didn't prefer being the day as wednesday, my soul purpose of buying it was only for weekend rides. Having the distance close to 25 KM and free shuttles where I am having luxury to use my smart phone to connect with my friends; otherwise I have no other options to wait till evening to reply their messages on WhatsApp when I left for the daily struggle with traffic  from office to home back in shuttle. All thanks to the financial clients and its project constraint; are another reasons for all this crap.

Few other learning which include remembering at least 175679895263 technical and functional jargon's which have been used day in and day out at office emails. Basically LWD - Last Working Day is just one of them. The logic is whosoever uses those jargon more in daily life; are up on the ladder.  Like for example so called managers and their daddy's uses this more frequently and then just enjoy. Then the recipients just try to understand their meanings for hours. Initially I just hate them because every time I need to do Google for it. But lets back to the story now...
I walked to the Bang – 6 office probably for the very last time. It sometime gets difficult to get the right word, but nevertheless, after moving out of the parking area just thought they will even take this green parking stickers which was usually the way to recognize when we roaming on the city and I told to my friends look s/he is also working in the same company.  So for this day, to me with my last swipe out, it’s going to be the end of a big chapter in life - The chapter of Accenture. Sudden surge of memories flashing in my mind. Starting from M2B - M3 - Bang 4 - Bang 6 - CDC 1 - DDC 1 - DDC 2 - CDC 2 and finally at Bang 6 again. Apart from just for fun visit meet a friend to HDC 1 as well. This fantabulous journey has contributed to some of the small joys in life like the first fancy mobile phone I bought, the first pair of branded shoes I purchased, first time I flew in an airplane and many more…
Though the farewell party has been done yesterday and I personally take out the time in last few days to meet those who are at Bang – 6 and thanked them for the time spent and friendship made which actually helps me grow both personally and professionally. I owe a big time thank to my greenfield friends who ware with me throughout the journey.   
Looking back the time and the things that has been done. I feel great and I feel emotional. Being working here over the time has taught me a lot. How to be so called professional, how to set the expectations right, how to do the win-win debate with the clients and how to communicate with your manager even if you are doing the exceeded expectations work and they felt you are doing just met expectations or sometimes even partially met.  Always the people make it great organisation and will remain so in the system. But as it is growing big it has been very challenging to carry on the ancient culture which old folks take proud in discussing with friends who work in other organizations’. Many good things happened and many not so good things. The balance can only be maintained if the good things are more than the not so good things.
Few of the best friends I have found here have been already added on Facebook. That’s the best way to be in touch now a days. Thanks to all those who actually helps to make a bigger reason to stay here for more than half decade.

Be remembered for good.

Taking a break now, Good Bye Accenture, Thanks for this journey J
