It’s been a month since the last issue of weekly Turni! I will let you all laugh about the joke for a bit first….okay good? Alright, let's get to it. I have no idea how others are doing, writing, or doing whatever, but it's been a relaxing couple of weeks for me in general. Over vacation I typically get to think a lot. This time around though, relaxing yes, but thinking time? = No for me. It was a rather active vacation. Obviously there are both good and bad things associated with me. Activities are good for the body, lack of thinking time are bad for the mind. So that’s that.
I quickly checked the community page, before writing this, except a few usual legacy farmers, not many community members are writing directly on the community page. Nothing wrong with that. There is a new community called 'wheels of life’, I have been noticing it for a while, lots of the usual suspects from here are also admins there. This is a good effort, please keep it up.
Our doc has been very active lately, which is rather hard to believe. I read his many posts on weekend experience, cinnamon cup coffee, leofinance and various other communities. I think Doc is seriously trying to engage and get his viewership back. This is a great effort, and people should follow doc's footstep, but still commenting on others posts remains a challenge. However, I must say Doctor Strange has turned his blog around.
Amor and Sakib have both been inactive for the last month or so. I checked and there is nothing to see there.
Sam is writing, sporadically, a couple of posts this week after a long gap. I think intent is there, execution is not. Commenting on others usually gets the tempo up, Sam, remember that. If you leave a comment unanswered for 24 hours, from someone who usually doesn’t comment on your post, you are not making the mark. That said, I must say intent is there, I am sure excuses too!
After that, there have been good posts here and there from my community members recently. I enjoyed Rafa's post about skateboarding. I wasn't sure if it was a longboard or not Rafa. To be a real badass, it has to be a longboard. Enjoyed Riz’s post about coffee and meetup. It was simple with a lot of personal touch, just the way I like to write. I wish more people write that way other than “কাগের ঠ্যাং বগের ঠ্যাং” !
And that’s about it………..there is darkness after that.
I think we need to realize where we are first before we try to dig ourselves out of this funk. I quote from Moneyball:
"There's good teams and there's bad teams. Then there's 50 feet of crap, then there's us.”........and with that humbling wisdom I better close this editorial :)
The last time I sat down to write for turni was right after getting that very first job rejection which was understandable and less painful as I went there just to get my father off my back for a while. Even though that experience ended up teaching me some valuable lessons about the job hunting world, fortunately or unfortunately, that phase didn’t last very long after that.
Hence, now as I am sitting down and trying to capture the tangled words to make some sense of the chaotic turmoil this mind has been brewing over the past month, I’ve lost the unemployed status and as a fresh soul getting stuck in the hellish corporate life, I’ve beginning to experience the things no one ever really warn you about.
People don’t warn you about the back pain that becomes an everlasting companion or the process of becoming addicted to caffeine, the bitter taste on your tongue that brings forth an unimaginable willpower to deal with the mundane office life.
They don’t warn you about the tiredness and heavy eyes that burge through the threshold right after the clock gets past that annoying 3 pm. The depression along with the package of existential crisis, questioning, "is this how it is going to be for the rest of your life?".
They don't warn you about waking up being sleep deprived, rushing through that annoying traffic to reach the office in time, cause otherwise some unimpressed glares would be waiting on the other side, stucking in a cubicle desk, checking the clock hundred times a day and then rushing back home to fall down on that ever so familiar comfort of your bed and getting lost in nightmares.
Don’t get me wrong, unemployment has its own designated hell, but being employed sucks out that last bit of whatever you’ve ever known as life. During this one month of getting used to the office life phase, I came across this philosophical quote shared by some girl on my feed and it said, Follow the 8+8+8 rules. Eight hours for work, eight hours for sleep and the remaining eight hours is for friends and family. I just couldn’t help but laugh at the irony.
Eight hours (sometimes more) go into the work, true but then more than three hours suck out by traffic, two hours take up completing the basic needs for survival and then when finally the remaining hours come, you would be too tired to make any impactful social obligations, hence no life outside office to home to sleep. Unless it’s a weekend, but then most weekends go by recharging that tired body.
Thankfully this office environment has a significant improvement compared to last year's horrible internship experience. Here most people are nice and quite helpful, with that being said, it would be stupid of me to be thinking everything will be perfect from here on, because it never will stay that way. Getting into a job and not dealing with double faced people would be too much to hope for. As for dealing with them, well at least that would bring some challenges into this ever so boring routine.
After having mastered a few different set of skills over the past few years, recently my own personal “trend of growth” has become stagnant. A lot of it isn’t as lucrative as it once used to be. Also, I’ve gotten a bit too comfortable I guess, and the comfort zone has happily sheltered me for all this me, absolutely rent-free. But nowadays it feels as if the comfort zone has deceived me instead, as if I’ve been duped, put into a trance.
I stopped working on improvements for quite a while now, I stopped learning, I stopped exploring, thinking that I’m “good enough”, thinking that life is good enough. But then life actually decided to make a little cameo; utilizing its harsh methods, starting with a solid b**tch slap, ejecting me back to reality, as I plummeted into a vigorous downward spiral.
Drastic times call for drastic measures, which is why I’ve been trying to keep myself busy, a bit isolated too.
You really are out of touch when you start to focus on yourself and your growth; you go out a little less, start spending your time and money wisely. Sometimes even depriving yourself from the very essential elements of life, the little moments and details that truly make us human. I know such measures can be a bit too extreme sometimes, but then again, drastic times and drastic measures, remember?
Many people ask me why I’ve been so out of touch for so long, and I don’t have the answer to that. But I guess it’s that way because I feel like I don’t have much time in my hands. Whatever it is that I’m working on, it requires a considerable amount of time, focus and patience.
For now a few things are in play, so it’s just a matter of time, also a matter of learning a few things, and unlearning a few more.
“The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it. Rather, it’s that we aim too low and we reach it.” - Michelangelo
Recently, I've been trying to be mindful over my mental health and everyday I'm learning something new, something that can bring a little peace in my mind.
Among all the mental issues, one thing I was bothered most about is comparison. Like comparing my life with others, how I'm not getting a good job like my friends, not getting permission to travel with friends, not having a life partner, not being able to have a settled life, things like that.
I think at some point, we all have gone through with these points, right? Romanticizing others' success and achievements makes our life fickle which makes us question our own abilities. And within few days, we create a mindset that everyone else is happier than us, and this thinking becomes a habit which can't let us have inner peace.
Sometimes, I don't want to get compared, but somehow my friends and surroundings try to make sure that I suffer with the issue. Can't fully blame them either as I am the one who made the choice in the end! Prioritizing my negative thoughts and year after year, I ended up slumped into my self-made dejection.
Then two days back, this happened. I was watching a video where a girl was sharing her life journey on how she overcame this issue. I came along with a wonderful quote that is still striking me for good. It goes something like this.
I didn't want their perfect lives. I wanted the happiness I believed they possessed.
And this one line changes the whole perspective of seeing life. Because, we don't always have the power to shape our own reality. It takes time, struggles and lots of up and down in what you want to be. It's a path of continuous effort where one has to give in, which needs patience too, to survive in this long journey.
A constant yearning for something you don't have can never make you a better person in life. Coz if you chasing something external to feel at peace with yourself, the cycle seems to neverend. So I am starting not to be hard on myself and trying to come out from the comparison mentality. I started to take other people's success as inspiration, their way of loving people as inhalation.
These days, When I look in the mirror, I want to have the feeling of self-love, the confidence in my own skin, knowing my worth and not letting other people define me. I tried to use gentle words in my inner dialogues which started to give me serenity. To tell the truth, it's not as easy as I'm quoting. But the best thing is I'm trying at least and maybe I can come out from this sick culture. And that can be seen as progress!
Nowadays, I am sort of becoming lazy with all the aspects which seem to be happening in my life. At least that is what my wife has been saying lately. But coming to the fact, it is probably a pinch to me to get me out of my house. Guess what, she knows her way around lol.
Since, Ramadan has already arrived, it has not been possible for us both to take a tour in any nearby restaurants for Iftar or late night dinner. But the place that I am sharing today does really have a nice environment to spend some time. It is one of our favorite place and I often go out there to taste different types of cuisine. Yep, its a food court that has plenty of stores where various types of cuisines are prepared for the customers. I am not a very big fan of sweets so the dessert corner does not attract me that much. But other stalls, especially Indian foods seems to call me whenever I visit this sort of food courts.
I like the food from here very much, it goes without saying. Also, my wife prefers this place quite a lot. Although, my last experience was not that much wise I would say!
As there is a strict rule of mine which I tend to follow at all times. I do not like wasting food! This is something, which I strictly follow in my every day life. Due to my past experience and other aspects of life, this has become one of those habit which I tend to keep, for the rest of my life.
Nevertheless, one of the reason, why I prefer to visit this place is because of its interior decoration. It gives the vibe of middle eastern aura. Yeah, I have a liking towards that sort of stuffs lol. I mean, middle eastern life style and all. Also the place is not that far from my residence. Almost everything about this food court from it's designs, lamp shades and even the color of the light does suit the environment. Making it quite cozy and a friendly place to visit and have food with family. I have never had Iftar in here before. Will try it out this year! ;)
Food court name : HAAT
BTW have a blessed Ramadan my friends!
"Bro, can you please hack my girlfriend's social media account?"
For the last few months, I have heard this numerous times. First of all, why on earth would you like to spy on your partner? If you have doubts, then clear them directly. Second and most importantly, I don't do this kind of activity, which is not possible in the first place. There is no way you would run a program with the social media username and the account would be hacked; nope, there is none. At least, I haven't heard of any so far in my journey in the Cyber Security field.
“So the frequent news we hear about getting hacked, what are they?”
Yeah, those are due to the negligence of the users and the intelligence of the hacker's mindset. There is a term called 'Social Engineering' in cyber security. 'Linus Tech Tips' was hacked; it was done by stealing session tokens from their browser. How? One of their team members opened an email that contained a PDF regarding sponsorship deals, a trap that compromised the browser and stole all the credentials that let the attacker get in. Yeap, emails are one of the prime methods to set up a trap for you by which the disguised malware would take control of your browser, even your device. Never click or download anything without being sure what the f it is.
An attacker needs loopholes to exploit; just one hole in your empire would make the whole infrastructure vulnerable. For example, a developer created a website with lots of security and functionalities, but there is a File Upload option from where a user can upload files. Out of 100 files upload section, one wasn't sanitised properly, or the attacker knew ways to bypass and uploaded a shell (malicious codes); boom! If it works, then there is an RCE to take over the whole server. There are thousands of functionalities on websites, and you never know how the attack is coming through. Even the most neglected option turns out to be the door to your scariest reality.
Suppose there was no way to upload a PHP shell, so the attacker renamed it to .pdf, and it was accepted, but the file won't be executed; it needs to be in .php to get executed, and no way to bypass and upload a PHP file. But you noticed that the developer hadn't sanitised the rename functionality, so after uploading in .pdf, you renamed the existing file back to .php, the shell was executed, and the damage was done.
So it's always a mistake that takes down the infrastructure. Now whether it's a social media account, a website, or something else, the attacker is always searching for a loophole to exploit, and it's up to the user or developer how critical and aware he can be to get ahead of the thoughts of an attacker to mitigate the threat of being exploited aka hacked.
I want to live a life brimming with meaning and keep wondering how to get there.
Often, I hear the word full and mistake it for busy. I hear the word intention and mistake it for everything I think is expected of me. I hear the word abundance and think I need to figure out a way to impress you with the things I've accumulated as I've gone along.
I forget that none of us is strapped to the hamster wheel of hurry and hustle, despite all the voices shouting, produce! produce! and could actually step off at any time. Exit through the gift shop. Keep heading west with an open heart and empty hands.
I wake to a new day and think about the meaning of this, the making of the meaning of this, the giving of meaning to this day, this life, and myself within it.
I marvel at the act of naming an intention and how it offers some shape. I practise naming what it is I am doing: I am gathering myself, I am asking, I am wrestling, I am trying to make sense, I am trying to make something that means something; maybe art, maybe dinner, I am trying to get through without only feeling like I am passing time.
I greet The Dream, which chatters at me when I am busy doing other things, life things
.
I greet The Dream's ragtag companions: hello Fear, hello Longing, hello Muddling, hello Trying, hello Ache.
I greet the things I love and the things that love me back, I greet the things I would love to love.
I greet the things I have set down and the things I am trying to set down.
I greet my worries and my worry's worry. I greet my hope, the bold kind and the delicate kind.
I wonder if a whole life spent saying hello and making a spot at the table for each of these things - a ruckus of a dinner, depending on the seating chart.
I make meaning out of the strangeness of being alive, with all its accidental miracles and incomprehensible sadnesses. It's random or slightly random or not random at all the happenings that have brought us here at this time. I make meaning out of this time spent living, and if that is the only meaning there is, it is enough.
Cinematic parallelism often amuses me and often that delight is ephemeral. Most of the time filmmakers use them to pay homage to the predecessor. However once in a while, such parallelism in visual storytelling does provide intriguing similarities or contrast. I was watching Tár yesterday and suddenly one frame caught my attention and reminded me of a short film, Blue (2018), quite unknown to many (although the filmmaker is a well-known artist).
In Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s Blue, there’s a woman on a bed, the fire rising from her is a formidable one. Yet she is fast asleep, nothing perturbed her. Everything is under her control. Whatever the fire represents metaphorically, it cannot destroy her peace.
In Todd Field’s Tár, a much-talked-about film from 2022 (A great one at that, and should have gotten Ooscar instead of that popcorn flick), the fire is the indicator of finalization of chaos in the protagonist’s life, the completeness of futility of her resistance against cancel culture. This manifestation of fire, albeit not as great as Blue, is enough to burn the protagonist utterly.
Such a beautiful cinematic contrast while resorting to visual parallelism.
No excuses this time dada 😅 I know what I'm doing is not up to the point where even I can be proud of myself. But as always, I'm hoping to change that. If I don't put in the effort, I will not get results. I need to put in more effort. It has never been a chore being here. I'm just too lazy for my own good it seems!
@sarashew hang in there and start working towards IELTS man! Don't get stuck in this country. You and I both know you will not survive here. So do the bare minimum and then, LEAVE!!!
@riz611 You're finding solace in solitude eh? It's good. Some me time never goes to waste, as I say. And when you spend those time working on yourself, then there is no negative side to it what so ever.
@rehan12 সবাই রোজা রমজানের মাসে এমন খাওয়ার জায়গার রিভিউ কেনো দেয়?! শুনলেই খুদা লেগে যায়...-,-
@minhajulmredol look at you writing a detailed piece about hacking! Finally I found someone who explained this concept for all those idiots out there. Most of them think hacking is some sort of magic! 'Chap dilei hoye jabe kind' of attitude they have...
@rafa-noor self care is the best kind of care out there. It's a hard thing to do, especially for us girls to put ourselves first, when the wholw society out there pressures you to put yourself last. You go for it! If you are happy, then the whole world surrounding you will be happy as well.
@annabeth even at the time of exams you manage to write poetry! Talented little donkey...-,-
@notacinephile I don’t understand a single thing about cinema, but damn what a poetic writing you got there...always so talented mother!
Remoteness is my new bestfriend, katti with causeless people and events.
Noted sir!
Next time kheyal rakhbo lol
রোজার দিনে ফুডব্লগ দেখার নেশা জাগছে, ফেসবুকে ঢুকলেই শুধু ফুডব্লগ আসে সামনে আর ড্যাবড্যাব কইরা চাইয়া থাকি, একটু দেইখা কাইটা দেই। 😂
Trying bro trying.. But the willpower is getting crushed by this hellish 6 days a week job :3
I also didn't know I still have something left in me for poetry. Especially during exams. --_--
@sarashew
Eh! There are tons of "pictorials" that pop up on the internet telling how one should always get up and move around every 45 minutes or so, especially for people working in the office. We are just too lazy to do it! I am writing this comment after I've been sitting on my ass for about 2 hours at a stretch now working on a presentation LOL!
Nothing wrong with that, nope!
Jokes aside, it's all part of growing up Sara.
@riz611 I personally enjoy staying out of touch from time to time "on purpose." My friends and cousins get annoyed, but I really think we all need to get out of reach of most people sometimes to reflect on life, or simply just get some "me time."
That's what I try to focus on bhai, but some people just don't get it. We're not teenagers anymore, we can't hang around and spend time "adda-ing" like we used to. Back then our lives were quite the same, study, hang around, kill some time, that was 90% of it. But now everyone's living a whole different life, and not everyone has as much free time.
Right! I have grown a very thick skin and try not to let these get to my head anymore. It has been much more peaceful inside my skull since then hehe!
Much needed peace. ☮️
Well... Then I simply have to say I hate growing up. This particular part of life has proven to be the root of my never ending whining :v
Also I am not a fan of caffeine, never liked the taste.. So this whole dependency is just sad XD
Whining is good! Rants are good - they make excellent posts for hive 😂
Trust me, I know! Ask @zayedsakib and he will tell you of all the legendary rants I have done on chain - I love a bit of controversy!
Yeah it's a long board, the standard size I mean! 😄 I really regret for not learning skateboard in my early age. Now I can't take the dare for learning those stunts 😅
@sarashew and here I'm, badly wanted to face these office shits! :')) you can't get the validation of your work if you don't go to office :))
@riz611 you just speak of my mind. I'm trying to follow your footsteps too. To me, most of your efforts to others go in vain or they don't want to care that much if you can't be on your own feet, career wise I mean.
@rehan12 your haat is evoking me to visit your hometown even more!! I've to make a big budget for those of your cool backpacks and classy dresses too :3
@minhajulmredol yeah I heard the detailed story too how Bangladesh bank got hacked with just a pdf file. You know that, right? They made a CV of a guy named Rasel and hatched for a year for a long term perfect weekend, make me think of the movie Snowden! but have to admit, that was a fasinating story 😄
@annabeth don't know how to comment on your piece, your poetry is just getting better and this one is praiseworthy!
@notacinephile oh I totally forgot about this three colors trilogy, your post make me to put it in the front line of my watchlist. Will definitely post my review!
Taka lagbe taka, Rafa, na hoile keo daam dey na. Oneke abar chabe j taka kamao ar tader taka dao, taka deyar por abar tomar kharap o chabe.
So I'd rather keep my circle small. That big circle and all these friends and relatives can take a hike for now. Those who mean a lot to you, true friends and family, they'll stay beside you no matter what, even if you're not meeting and talking every damn day. And even if you meet them after years or even a decade or so, the bond will still be as strong.
Harsh truth!
And yeah, that's the true thing indeed. Your truly close peep will always remain close, no matter what comes. I believe in that too 💙
Yessss, that hacker group is supported by their country itself. They took a year inside the system and no one detected any unusual activities, the same scenario in most of the IT sector in our place. You can't even imagine how vulnerable our government and educational sites are! Within a day, one can take down hundreds of websites, lol
The most unfortunate thing is they are discouraging. Outside companies are paying ethical hackers to find bugs in their projects through "Bug Bounty Hunting" programs and here in our country no one would even dare to report a bug, even for free of cost. Because instead of being grateful they would be like, "You came to hack, who told you to do this, blah blah blah."
Exactly, exactly! And this is one of the reasons why we aren't making that much progress on this site. I heard in an podcast that world's next leading and dominant countries will be those who has strong cyber security soliders (like Israel, Russia and Korea). Then it makes me think that which position are we holding? :3 sigh!!
True,
We have lots of skilled people to contribute but the problem is proper recognition. Most of us know that here we can't expect a similar payout like one would easily get from a foreign platform but if respected recognition is promised then everyone would happily participate.
I believe this will going to happen pretty soon. Coz their is no way around.
I hope so too.
You all are always welcome.
lol Everything will be within reach of ours. No big budget is needed! jk ;)
Trust me when I say, this whole office life does not hold the validation card of your success. :v
Also, be cautious what you wish for :'))
Sigh, may Allah save our soul!
Trust me! I didn't put any effort into this piece and It came out like this, but when I put in efforts like desperate kind of efforts, it came out like freshly produced sh*t. :)
Us!! When I try to put extra effort in any blogpost, painting or whatever I'm making, it disappoints me all the time! I think a fear of anxiety works on that moment.
@sarashew hang in there boss. I know how the job sector is in our country, but I do see it improving day by day. As you climb the ladder, hopefully you'll find your zone and a bunch of people who you get along with, and then maybe, just maybe "work" won't feel like work anymore.
@rafa-noor sometimes you just have to let things come to you, while you yourself are on the search. I truly believe that some things can't be forced, shouldn't be forced; keep working on yourself, keep on improving, what has to happen will happen. You're in your own time zone, others are in theirs, your time will come.
@rehan12 that's a nice little food court. At first I thought it was a fancy restaurant or hotel, the decoration surely looks like that. If the Sylhet tour happens then we all must visit this place. It's been a while since I've last had some good Indian food.
@minhajulmredol I'm not even an expert with these hacks and all these things, but even I used to get such requests to hack someone else's social media lol. It was mostly about a decade ago, people were too busy trying to hack other people's accounts for some reason, and only god knows why.
@annabeth give it some time, you'll slowly start to figure out the meaning of life and your purpose too. I'd say that I myself have just started with my purpose, but there's a long way to go still. For now just keep on exploring, pay attention to and appreciate the little things, don't rush it, such things take time.
@notacinephile I think such scenes are most common when the films belong to the same studio or director. I've noticed most of these scenes paying homage in animated movies, and sometimes the "superhero" universe too, such as DC and Marvel, but most of those were actually Easter eggs.
Done ;)
Btw what about panshi? @rehan12 bhai
Sylhet er sathe "panshi" namta prai e shuni
Panshi & 5 bhai are renowned for Bangla culture foods
Ei jaygay o jawa jaite parey!
hae hae "5 bhai" o
I went to "panshi" last year, it was a decent experience, nothing exceptional. 😛
Thanku bro, appreciate your every words. Dowa koiro 💙
You are welcome. 🖤
Always 🙏
Yes, back in my school days, I used to see phishing websites , clone of the actual login page and in the phishing one,all the credentials used to be stored in email.
Those were fun and used to be done for a few reasons, mostly to be a COOL guy.😅
Cool, but too many "hack requests" would just be annoying sometimes. 😵
I have to say, it's better than last years internship experience, at least the people are much more tolerable here.. well, except for a snake. But still bro.. I can't survive in this corporate life.. It's too suffocating.
Sadly we all need money :3
Let's go and scam people. Hashtag scammers, hashtag EZ money and TOPG shit. 😂
I don't think I'll ever find that purpose if I judge my lifestyle.
You got a lot of time, kid. Again, give it some time, some effort, sooner or later you'll get there. Bet on it.
"Turni" is here.
The Cycle of Employment
@sarashew
My deepest condolences to you as you have lost your unemployed status, so sad! I Have never been to a corporate life (except an internship which was conducted virtually) nor I wanna be one to be there if things go as per my plans. And that 8+8+8 rule, lol, in Dhaka one must keep a dedicated section just to feed the traffic.
Out of Touch
@riz611
Trust me, I wanted to write on this topic, a pretty big one to publish on my social media. The third portion, complaints from people for being out of touch, the stage of my life I have entered right now is the time I should focus on myself, to work on the career ahead of me, to fix things to work out in the long run, and getting busy while doing them is pretty normal. Life is not like the college days, with carefree roaming throughout the whole day, and hangouts that used to last for several hours. Things have changed that I can't make them understand, and then I postponed the attempts too.
Circle of Comparison
@rafa-noor
Fortunately, I haven't compared myself to others mostly. Yeap, there were lots of occasions when I felt jealous or saw an empty space within me for not having that particular thing but those faded away mostly. To be honest, there were some cases where I compared myself for lagging despite having the same potential to achieve something that someone else did, blaming myself, and then taking them as milestones to touch. Many of them didn't work out, but many did, and I am glad about the positive ones.
Well, I know I have lots of things to be grateful for, things to be proud of myself for, and I am happy with them on my journey ahead.
Some people just don't understand change, they don't like it, but change is inevitable. So, sometimes it's better if we welcome it with open arms, and not fight it.
Yes, stay away from this hellish life kid. This whole hassle is just not worth it.
Also, you are already rich, so why bother :v
Ekhono price tag dekha off hoyni shejonno 😕
Sara, did you get a job? You don’t seem happy.
Amor that image remind me of Antorjoli Jatra. Not the movie, but the book. It’s hard to get, try :)
Yes dada, To get my father off my back. It was either get a job or get married. Now choosing this form of prison life instead of that other similar kind seemed more appealing.
This reminded me of a talk show I watched long long ago. They were talking about which political party to vote in our country - the speaker was saying if you vote for party "A" you're letting a lion eat off your head. If you're voting for party "B: you're letting a tiger eat off your head. Now you need to decide who are you going to let eat your head off!
@sarashew
You have displayed a couple of facts which hardly someone reveals. The 8+8+8 rules, I meant the phrase hit on my mind in a bold way. Yes, all are true that is never possible to maintain the rules and you also mentioned the shortcomings. It can easily bring monotony & tiredness into one's life. I feel like there is a thing which is the most precious in corporate life and that is the experiences you will gather. You do not need to be stuck in one place for a long time If you are not interested. Just gather experiences and jump on another project If you seem to drive on or that would assist you in making smarter decisions for your life.
I am not planning to stay here for more than a year, but still no matter where I go from here on, the whole scenario won't change much. It sometimes makes you wonder, how people waste away more than half of their life span in the wheel of this never ending suffocating prison life.
