..with friends surrounded..

Land in US with a job and you will be faced with this question for sure in the first few months itself - so, do you have plans to go back? After almost seven years, I still don't have a concrete answer. Yeah, I will at right time - thats what I think and thats what you will hear from me if interrogated. A very close friend of mine decided to close his chapter here after several years and go back for good. I worked with him for just too long to believe that he wouldn't be around anymore.

We interacted with each other probably more than our better halves on a daily basis (No, we are not gays, not that anything wrong with that). Meetings, design discussions, collaborative coding, debugging sessions, there wasn't a single problem that would go unresolved. I could always walk into his cube for nothing and he would have time for me. It just felt good to be able to look upon someone for anything and everything.

Ah, coffee, it will never taste the same again. We blabbered every alternate day over coffee and it was mostly complaining and cribbing. One of the few good coffee companies I will ever have.

Satish, you know how bad it is to deal with a void pointer, I would never be able to type cast it to anything else. Wish you good luck and wish we cross the same road again.
