Update on my life

I joined as an Associate Software Engineer last week. Here begins my journey in the IT sector. As you all probably know, in IT sector, you are always replaceable. So, I have to upskill myself and switch companies at the right time constantly. As of now, I am taking things slowly and focusing on the tasks at hand. We have a virtual training session for 6 days starting next week, where we will receive an overview of my competency. I guess that explains my hiatus here for a few days I really missed mylot. How are you all doing?

I can understand why you are not available on mylot these days. Do you have a work from home job or you go to the office daily? How is your journey so far?

@Dreamerby Yes, that is true. Recently I read TCS is laying off 12k employees so the future for software engineers is not good so it's better to stic to the job people have at the moment

I've been wondering what you were doing and why you weren't coming to myLot. I'm glad you've just been busy and not sick... IT can be a difficult field to work in. I hope you always do well in it.
