I Shoulda Been an Engineer

Being Indian and working at the world's most famous tech company naturally most people assume that I am an engineer.

Naturally, when they find out that I'm not, they tend to be disappointed. (The INS officer at LAX told me that I should be ashamed of myself - yeah, you and me both pal...do you know how many options engineers get?!)

Now, it seems the cosmos is trying to tell me something. We do a "birthday board" at work every month and look at the board for September.

And yes, I just happen to be the only non-engineer on there.

Yeah, you and me both pal, you and me both...
