Hi,
If I say I am posting this after a long time, that would be an understatement. This blog is almost dead. Thats because I was damn busy for last couple of months. I was not doing anything but I was busy thinking about things. I have found out that taking decisions is the most difficult thing in the world. Especially when you have to choose between two good things. And then at the back of your mind you kind of know that eventually either of them is going to sound stupid.
I left Adaptec some 2 weeks ago. That decision was pretty simple. Three days ago I joined a startup called Server Engines in Hyderabad. This decision gave me sleepless nights. I had other offers from good companies. I had offers from companies from three different cities. Pune, Hyderabad, Bangalore. In the end I just made a decision to come to Hyderabad. Let me rationalize this for a moment
1) It is a startup and the people have a good reputation.
2) I will be working on the same product for some time and then will move to the next version.
3) I was sick and tired of Bangalore.
4) Hyderabad is closer to my home town.
5) Last but not the least.. money is not bad either. :)
Looks pretty ok.. but I could have rationalized for the other choices also. So in the end only time will tell if this decision was right. Till then I am planning to resurrect this blog. I will try and post atleast one entry daily.
Yours Sincerely,
