So I have been handed this awful project . To a place where there is no public commutation ( which btw was my only criteria before relocating ). This is what I hate about myself, not being able to firmly say no.
My New Project has almost all (well not all, but many..) elements that I hate
Without time machine my options now are..
My New Project has almost all (well not all, but many..) elements that I hate
- Place with no public commutation, simply awful for someone like me who doesn't drive .
- Very hectic project.(I have to be in office by 6:00 am take that..). My ability to handle stress is not as good as I would want it to be, this was infact one of the reason why I left my previous company. I loose even more hair( I have already got a big bald patch ..:d) I become even more cranky and nihilistic.
- Another dreadful thing, I like to do my development ideally in an isolated cubicle where I have my privacy. Here however all of us are stuck in a conference room. Where I would have to make an effort even to go to washroom because its just so damn congested and people talk and ask things, I don't like that..arghh..I hate it..and people are so social and I am also nervous with the fact that clients would be present there continuously..ahh..I hate it.
Without time machine my options now are..
- Spend awesome 7*2*24*52 =42grand..on just commuting to office and back and well + any other time I want to do anything. If only this were a feasible option. If only I earned butt load of money :P
- Leave project ,Leave Company , Come back(Go back) to India , Stay at home for 3-4 months and then apply for another job..:D Seems good...except for the career risk, still not a bad option.
- Tell manager I will leave unless you can give me other project. I know I am not going to be able to do that. :d
- Suffer in Silence, pay away nearly all my salary to a hotel and not save any money while I am working in this project and therefore defeat the very purpose of staying in US..:d by default option ..:d
- Get a DL and a Car ( too much work ).
Now, One good thing and the only one, is that Disney downtown is just opposite to me and therefore Disney World. Also Orlando has many awesome theme parks like Universal theme park with its awesome 3D simulated harry potter ride which I always wanted to visit.
Hopefully will be able to visit it sometime before head back home.
