Listen to this!! I got to know of this second hand. But its true nevertheless. I have this friend. Now this friend has another friend who works in a nice software company back in India. So let this guy be Guy Working in Nice Software Company [GWiNSC]. So GWiNSC has been a software professional for a number of years, ultimately doing the same kind os stuff for a major part. He was not really satisfied with what he was doing and wanted to shift to some new stuff. So, GWiNSC did what any GWiNSC would do and told his boss that he wanted a to change tracks somewhat. Nothing doing. Boss said you stick to this line .. you do it well. This went on for some time but no progress. GWiNSC got really frustrated. He was sick and tired of doing that work for x number of years and wanted to do anything but that. What do you think he did?
GWiNSC stopped working.
Yes, thats right .. he just stopped working. So one day his boss comes to him and this is the gist of their convo -
Boss: Hey GWiNSC, we need that module pronto I hope you have completed the final part
GWiNSC: No, I am not working. [by now he was feeling mighty cool and was ready to stick it out .. you know how it is right .. you go to do something stupid/bold/exciting and you are nervous, but once you start doing it you get the guts]
Boss: What do you mean you are not working?
GWiNSC: I am just not working. I am tired of doing this. I dont want to do it.
Boss: But this has to go today!!!
GWiNSC: Nope, I told you lots of times I dont want to continue in this, you guys didnt listen. Now, I am not working.
He got his transfer after a while.
