Placement blues..

My journey here started with placements. It is only ironical that it should end with the same worries. One very good placement report tilted my decision in favour of joining here apart from other factors that equally baffled me in picking this college. The paradox being this is the only college that i got through.

At the end of every one year, like a loan amount that reminds you to service your interest, placements come to haunt you, not because you are not worth it, but because of a lot of other factors that seem to repel companies away from our institute. Its a pity that we haven't yet found out all the factors causing that repulsion. At a time when other colleges seem to be easily alluring the top notch companies to their campuses, ours seem to be deciding whether they should give a tie or some other souvenir for the company that comes on board.

To top this all, the administration's support to this entire process is mind boggling. Every time they seem to come up with something for us to ponder about and apply our managerial skills in places where only common sense is needed. Any sane person would have caught the persons responsible by his collar and questioned them. But here meaningless support for the guys is doing them in. I pity their position and definitely wouldn't like to be in their shoes at this instant. But then again i am not a shirker. I had applied for this same post knowing well enough of the difficulties that might be faced. Sadly they didn't see my potential or I didn't supposedly mingle with long enough be in their good books.

Worst case, i have started to write this blog, if nothing happens, i can resign in a quiet valley writing novels and other stuff that people might not even read. Only one thing rings in my mind, the worst is yet to come...
