Bangalore Blues

Bangalore has become a pain. Everyday I spend a mind boggling 2.5 hours on commuting to work. Traffic snarls, pollution and noise have invaded this once sleepy city. And all this thanks to the glorified software industry. The city seems to survive on the octamer. Be it housing, utilities, transportation or entertainment, everything seems to be tailored to meet the needs and fancies of the omnipresent software professional. I have a strong feeling that a few decades down the city would feel like an abandoned gold mine, with just memories of the good times of yore. Joined office on Monday. I will be operating out of ITPL for a couple of months, till the time my visa gets processed. My mates in the project are friendly and overtly helpfull. The project is a new one with a lot of equipment just coming in. I am one of the oldies in the offshore team, second in experience only to the offshore PL.
