Some reasons why you are not getting the next big job that you are looking for?
Or why you are still stuck in the same job??
- today's times are difficult. ps.ps. there are no new jobs. you should hold on to your existing job. that's what they want you to think (who are 'they'?)
- you are just not good enough to get a new job. god only knows how you have survived in your current job. (lol - if you think the truth is always bitter, try lal toofan. the truth will taste better!!).
- you really don't want to leave your current job. really...?? (admit it - you are in love - probably with someone on the job or the chair or your desk or the coffee vending machine - where else can you get free coffee)
- companies are not ready to pay you what you want. you must be asking for a raise...!!!! (raise in today's times! that's only for CEOs who get paid a lot more money to make sure they pay someone who will plan how someone else will manage the people who will oversee what your superior asks you to do)
- u are not ready to believe what companies think u r worth. they r actually offering to pay u less than what u get today. wow...!
- companies are not offering the role you want. they want you to work (not everyone is superman! try wearing your underwear inside out - maybe that will take you somewhere!!)
- you are not ready to accept the role companies want to give you. (really??? does my aptitude test say that i'm more suited to be a janitor?? dont' tell anyone what's being offered)
- you don't like the work place where the company is located. there is no mcdonald nearby. (come on, mac is so passe! use swiggy, foodpanda, etc - any of those apps to order your food. get a life and a new excuse).
- you don't want to relocate to a different city. its just more work. (ya, more work for someone else. why would you care? you are never going to move out of your parents house).
- it usually takes a few months to get a new job. and nobody believes you when you say that. (i believe in you and so does the sun, moon and the stars. but how does that matter?)
- companies want you to join now and you have a release period of 3 months. isn't that a good thing? (if you can't survive anymore in this job, just walk out. right here, right now! btw - don't forget to pick up those balls that you dropped).
- you still have faith in your organization. (mere karan arjun aayenge!!!) then why are you reading this...???
PS. This was written in 2012. I wonder why I never published it. Everything applies even today.
