God has been fair to me. He gave me 22 years of bliss and harmony, fun and frolic, filled with lots of love from friends and family. Therefore when he gave me two years of pain and torture and embarrassment, I couldn't really complain to Him. It was like due in a big way.
First few months in Adfactors were like the honeymoon period... then it started going from good to bad to worse.... and below that....
My work increased like crazy, there was a time when i was handling 11 (yeah you read it right) 11 clients; though I had a team of five people working for me but it was enough to drive me crazy. I was on the job for 12 hrs at a stretch and yet it was not enough most of the times. I would not say, I enjoyed that period, as my quality of work went for a toss as the quantity increased.. may be I was still not capable of doing it. At the same time I think it wasn't because of the work that my performance went down, it was rather because of my personal life which was in a complete mess and I allowed it to interfere in my work.
I remember a colleague of mine telling rather warning me not to mix my professional life with personal, now I so wish I had heeded to her advise. I always tell myself that whatever decision I take in life I will not regret it. However this is one decision I regret it and maybe will go on regretting it for the rest of my life. My decision of mixing my both lives almost resulted in losing my job and making my career go for a toss !
However as its said that every dark cloud has a silver lining, so had mine. Mine came in the form of two close friends and a completely new career option. Adfactors gave me two very close friends, they cheered me up, they helped me to overcome my problems and gave me joy when I had forgotten that something called joy existed.
My tenure with Adfactors was very different from any working professional. I say it because I had quit the company twice, just to join back again. My final goodbye came when my current boss completely boxed me in to join his organization... :) I am very happy that I took that decision. I joined WAT Media pvt ltd. in Jume 2008.
A completely new beginning, but 2008 still had some bad news in stored for me. Well not personally but as an Indian and Mumbaite. 26/11 was a rude shock for every Indian and perhaps for the rest of the world as well.
I remember praying to God for ending 2008. 2009 did begun on a good note, hoping it continues that way for the rest of the year.
