Job Offer

I ve been offered a job after 2 rounds of interviews today... apart from a decent raise i get to work at a good locale... away from home ...away from everything...
what was wonderful was the interview experience... besides being able to articulate my thoughts in a fairly appreciable manner, i was able to let my personality shine... not once but twice... you know when you can see the twinkle in the interviewer's eye... you can be assured you ve been selected...
ahh the feeling of self confidence... when you are asked to hang around for .... the manner in which one interviewer puts the interview evaluation sheet in front of the other interviewer, the smiles that you get from the support staff when they see that sheet.. the two or three times that your name is called out to reassure that you havent actually left... talking about mentoring in an IT organisation to an HR head... about people development... and how for that one moment everything seems connected... in a unison... to a point where you are so sure that you actually ask the interviewer, when you would be getting your offer letter ...right there or by mail??...

In the end (Linkin Park)

It starts with one thing
I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter

One thing, I don't know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try, keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme, to explain in due time
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me (in the end)
You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I

Chorus

I’ve put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There's only one thing you should know (2x) Chorus
