"Software Engineer" is not as cool profession as i

[tcp/ip]

1. Working late evenings, missing social life

2. Not getting great gals to work with. (Better crib the whole Engineering stream, not jus SW Engineer profession)

3. No physical exercize, belly coming out.

4. All greedy collegues/peers around, hardly getting chance to make good friend.

5. Don't contribute much to the country (as most of our services goes to US, or other countries)

6. Not getting challenging work anyway...





opps! shit, I jus realized 'am in a mess.

these things happen in almost all professions...if u see your points, u may notice that except for point 1, it sounds like a government job!



my take on each point-



1- WORKING LATE - thats a problem of improper time management - both you n yr manager.



2- GALS - i agree to a certain extent, but u usually get cute gals in HR, Admin and the Front Office! on the other hand, please remember that all the techie guys arent Mr.Universes either.



3- PHYSICAL EXERCISE - thats entirely your fault. at least walk a lot and take the stairs instead of the lift.



4- OFFICE POLITICS - where doesn't it exist? if u cant beat em, join em!



5- CONTRIBUTION TO COUNTRY - of corz u r contributing to India...u take yr fat salary and you spend it here in India. you r helping the economy, dude!



6- CHALLENGING WORK - again, this happens in all professions once the job becomes too easy. badger your manager for more challenging work instead of sitting and cribbing about it.
