Bhubaneswar to Gurgaon - A road well travelled

So after two years of wilderness in the state capital of Orissa, I was finally granted freedom. It would be exaggeration to compare myself to someone who got incarcerated but then what's stopping me. So now I move in from a small office to a big swanky corporate office. Naturally, I was excited( this proves that I'm not cynical) at the prospect of meeting new people, understanding the broader perspective of business( ahem), moving into a city which offers food, nightlife and other forms of human entertainment which I had forgotten about during my stay in bbsr.
The initial struggle was quite obviously around housing - But compared to Mumbai, finding housing here is a cakewalk. Was also helped by two kind samaritans who were staying there before me & hence the transition was smooth to say the least.

Driving - Being not a very good driver( self confessed), the prospect of driving a car in the city of Jats & call centre cabbies was petrifying or mebbe mortifying. But after more than a month of driving around, I am a reformed man. The city gives you the space to drive as long as u are above 60kmph. Anything less than this and thou shalt be confronted with loud sounding noises which auto companies euphemistically call horns. Statistically, the loudness of the horn is proportional to the size of the engine residing in the car. Hence call centers employ qualis & innovas. 2.5 litre engine - Honk away to glory -

About the new ppl in the workplace - The content of this would be censored as this is a public blog. So in case you are one of the rare readers & were hoping to find some juicy material,...........................................

Its an entirely new experience - In the corporate office, normal things happen- like celebrating b'days, giving farewells, etc. Things that probably never happen at the regional places unless someone from human liabilties department sends a mail stating its good to celebrate as it makes ppl feel good - If only some ppl could be educated about the virtues of humanity & celabration - Hrrrrmmmmpppppppphhhhhhhhhhhh
And to top it, we have a healthy sex ratio as well - I come from East where some Nazi influence was working slowly & steadily towards making the region a woman/girl/damsel free zone.God knows, they would have already completed their conspiracy.
This blog is now very lengthy - So shall write more the next time - And in case you have been patient enough to read this entire garbage, please do leave a comment. It makes me feel special & wanted in a twisted sort of way.
