People working in software industry know how they feel coming into office on Monday, thinking how the week will go by and the weekend would come. I am no different since i am also an part of the largest IT firm in India.
I had spent most of my 20 odd years in Chennai, but ask me any place around Chennai other than my house and college, in OMR road, you could catch me saying yeah i know (which obviously i don't know) :). After getting my first job, i had to move to Bangalore, the place i liked most than ever hot Chennai. I can talk a lot of my experiences there, but lets stick to the topic here. I got to work there in the heart of the city and that too in Leela palace and in a good team in the company with a couple of friends new to the city and me.
Since most of the IT companies had clients in US, one had to work late at night and i had oblige to that since i was a fresh blood and had a chance to learn lots. Having worked hard all through the week, we used to wait for the much expected Friday and then the weekend. As usual we wont be in a mood to work and pushing all the tasks to next week, we would take of early from office and get to MG road or CMH road and having had the feast for our eyes we would find a nice hotel to have the feast for our tummy and spend time there till midnight and we get to go home only to take the much needed rest which we needed after week full of work. Wake up late the next day at 12 PM and have our brunch in a andhra restaurant mostly till the food level comes to throat and then take rest there for at least 15 Mins, since we would not be able to walk. Then we get to go back home, watch some movie in TV and then get to sleep. Once again wake up at 6 in the evening and then have a light dinner. The same routine would continue for the next day and would go back to bed thinking why doesn't god make it a Friday night again. Darn i miss those weekends now having come back to Chennai.

If my memory serves well, i remember you sweating it out even during the weekends. A workaholic indeed. But yes, it was a pleasant 3 years that we spent in bangalore.
