Today was the first day that I logged in, and took calls, it was an amazing experience. Speaking to someone on line, whom, you have never met before, taking a name which is not yours, and imitating as if you are an American, but if the customer asks you, “where are you right now?” you politely, and honestly say, “ I am in Bangalore, India.” But this wasn’t any other day; it was a new year’s day, according to the Gregorian calendar. When the clock ticked 12, o’ clock, happy new years day, was the noise everywhere. Twenty two years have passed since I have stepped into this world, nothing significant has happened, except that, I have grown up, so are the people around me, and so are the situations with me. In these twenty two years of my life, I have seen different governments on seats, politicians being assassinated, buildings being brought down, people rallying through the streets, bursting crackers, half-naked, colored faces, apart from all this things, I have also seen, buildings razing up, new companies on every corner, technology becoming obsolete everyday, clothes on peoples body shortening.
There are few things which, when I think I feel insecure about. There are companies, and there are customers, and there are laws which govern these companies. There are governments, there is constitution. And there is country, and patriotism. Our nation, our people, our culture. But then, there are also, other nations, other cultures, and other people. Then there are people who are losing jobs because of these ‘other people.’ Because? Because there is money, low paid workers, same work, exploitation, need, greed. One fine day we wake up, and find that all our jobs will be outsourced to an other country, other people, other culture, low pays, that day, people will; loose jobs, earn nothing, with there now acquired American accent will say, “Thank you for coming here, my name is…., I know that you don’t need my assistance anymore.”
