Five things I miss about my work-life!

It's almost seven months since I'm jobless, and the initial excitement of leaving IT field for "good", seems to have it's own dark side. Things have settled down pretty quickly in Mumbai and this city rocks completely. Although MBA life is supposedly very strenous, 24X7 work and ..... ahhhh, I don't know why I can't experience any of this! Having learned a few jargons here, I thought of finding my "opportunity cost", had I not pursued this degree. Let's see the five things which I miss about my work-life:

1. SALARY! SALARY! - Trust me guys, the kick of money being credited into your account on last day of every month when you don't work is really different! Leaving all that, paying a hefty amount for MBA and then being asked to study, is really painful.

2. FREEDOM! FREEDOM! - This would mean no group works, no quizzes, no assignments. Can just go out with friends any time (read this as ANY TIME) for movies, bike rides, shopping, playing 29 all night, and what not!

3. ALTUS! ALTUS! - Well, this is surely one thing which makes me feel that I really left something special at Sterling!

4. SPL! SPL! - Nothing can get bigger than SPL at Sterling! (If Rajesh/Vaibhav is reading this blog, then please give my MoM and MoS trophy!) :P

5. SICK LEAVES! SICK LEAVES! - For a lazy bum like me, sick leaves are a breather! Where else will you get paid even when you are ill.. ! And yeah, no worries of a down-grade also if missed too many days! :D

I know the list is too small, but then I selected the first five which came instantly to my mind!
Nice to blog after a long time..!
