After a four-day break, I entered the gargantuan building, a day after Diwali and frakly, was quite lost in the sea of humanity.
Day 1 began with an elaborate form-filling session that lasted nearly half-a-day. The forms mainly pertained to my address, name and umpteen other details, except my sun sign and proof of birth. I had about 25 forms to fill, each of them asking the same type of questions in different manner. I felt like a school kid who has been punished to write a 20-page imposition for bad behavior.
The first day was great, I had improved my handwriting after years of not putting pen to paper. I found that I had to work out of a smaller office that was closer to home than this office (what a relief!). Day 2 started off ignominiously after I found that I had neither been assigned with a workstation or a computer. So I waited...
Day 3 began with work trickling in from my team lead, but my computer gave way while I was half way through with my work. After frantic calls and waiting for nearly 4 hours, I got to know that a replacement machine would not be made available for me and that I would have to wait for tech guys to set right hardware issues in my comp. So, the wait continues...
Monday morning I hope to see the light of the day. Wish me luck!
