niit chembur

nospam@example.com (Anurag) — Sat, 10 Jun 2006 16:33:15 +0530

last year, when we had a requirement for a php/mysql programmer, i recalled that i knew Sachin, placement incharge at NIIT Chembur center.. little did i realise that NIIT Chembur center was no more an NIIT center..

Me: ***dials 2528xxxx
Receptionist: Hello KarROX technologies. How may i help you?
Me: hello.. i thought i'd called up NIIT
Me: Sorry wrong number

hmm, may be they leased out the room to KarROX, as NIIT affiliation was not getting any money.. then again last week another friend asked for a trainee, and i thought let's callup KarROX.

Me: ***dials 2528xxxx
Receptionist: Hello IIHT.
Me: hello.. KarROX?
Receptionist: Sorry sir, KarROX is no longer here.
Me: ok, thank you so much

why i'm jobless

an interesting quote from bash.org..

A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you're a great guy, but I don't like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we're not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we're going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn't work out, we'll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired.

http://bash.org/?414593 | well, i dont agree with all of it, but its still funny
