Adieu to Expertus

Yesterday (December 22nd, 2006) was a special day for me. I had resigned my job at Expertus, where i had worked for the past 11 months.
You might wonder what is so great about it. But, for me, this was a special moment since Expertus gave me many things that i had for the first time in my life.
1) This was my first job as Instructional Designer.
2) For the very first time, i got a starting salary of above 7000
3) I went on a trip to TTDC in Mahabalipuram with my office friends, it was one of the most wonderfull trips in my life.Gopakumar,Gowri, Ashwini, Richeek, Sreeram, Akilan, Senthil, and Sudarsan, & Devika for giving me a great experience.
4) During my very short tenure, i met many friends: Dafne, Sanjana, Abhilash, Harishankar, Sandeep, Sanchali, Madhubala, Aravind, Girish, Bala and so, on. Each of them were totally different in character, but very professional at work.
6) I owned a mobile phone for the first time.
7) I went to official parties held at resorts; prior to this, i never had even been to a resort.
8) Most valuable thing was that i discovered that i too had some talent.

I can never forget Expertus;mostly for the reason that it gave me a job during the most difficult time of my life. The job not only gave me money, but showed me a glimpse of the path that i must travel. I was fortunate to have many mentors who have guided me and helped me a lot, bith personally and professionally. I thank all of my friends, to name a few: Senthil, Sudarsan,Akilan, Ashwini, Abhilash, Sanjana, Hari, Uma, and Richeek for their help and guidance.

I just hope that my new company would give me a better experience.
