So here I am after resigning from my new internship cum job after just two days! That's quite a feat. Screw you if you don't agree.
I would not go into much detail here but things didn't work out for me. I know I can't judge the work and its long term benefits from my mere two days of experience but I sure as hell can say that I wasn't a bit satisfied. Plus I was spending a lot of moolah for something that I didn't like. I am atleast a bit relieved that I quit before the company poured any resources or money on me. I am pretty sure that I have burnt my bridges and I have basically squashed any chance of getting future opportunities from the company. But it's okay. I may have worked my ass off (which I'd obviously do for my next job. No matter the type of work. I learnt a lesson. I had once chance and I spent it. So I gotta accept my next job the way it is, whether I like it or not). Alright so yeah, I would have worked my butt-cheeks off and put in all the efforts, and pulled off the job had I genuinely liked the work. And I'd not be doing justice to the opportunity if I cannot give my one hundred percent. Hell! I didn't like the job, I quit it. As simple as that. The whole world thinks I am an asshole, a fucking quitter for doing this. They think I owe them a freaking justification, a FUCKING PUBLIC APOLOGY!
I was supposed to feel satisfied if not elated after quitting the job. But the fucking justifications and explanations that I'll have to dish out to each person I meet for the next few weeks, and the barrage of questions that'll be aimed at me, are gonna be more tiresome and frustrating than the job itself. It was my job, I quit it, and I'm responsible for whatever the hell happens to me after it (starvation and death prolly). My advice : make sure you tell as fewer folks as possible the next time you get a swanky job. Trust me, it'd save you a shitload of trouble when you finally decide to hang the boots and call it quits. It's fucking depressing. Nobody understands my position except my parents. It's not like a college course where you end up wasting an year if you quit. I can get a job which I'd enjoy. I've spent the last couple of years working really hard so that I can get a damn job which is satisfying even if it pays less. Why do people fail to understand that it's not the end of the world for me? And some folks are of the opinion that I should have stuck around and given it a few months but what's the damn point!? I chose the petroleum field for a reason. I'd have happily chosen the computer science course and college that I had gotten during the first round of engineering admissions if my only motive was to "stick around" and do the job just for the sake of doing it. Our entire society is a mere jerkwater joke. Yes, I am stereotyping and I don't give a damn!
So, consider this as my justification to the nosy junta, a "public apology". I am gonna just shove it in anyone's face who asks me for an explanation now because I'm dead tired of blabbering the same shit again and again. Hell! I can even post it on Facebook and send it as an email attachment to these folks. I am just gonna be a hermit for the next few days. Better stay off the radar and avoid the turds. That's it. Enough ranting.
