romeobanglore: yes...

julietscity: where is Sumit now? Did he send you emails?

romeobanglore: you asked about Sumit??? That's a surprise!!!!!!!!!!! because Sumit sent me a letter yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!

julietscity: He is your best friend from childhood

romeobanglore: yes...he is in Saudi Arabia now

julietscity: When will he come back or where may he go?

romeobanglore: he won't come back soon...he will search for better jobs there

julietscity: hmmm...go to the USA?

romeobanglore: No. He is not in software

julietscity: when do you have to leave?

romeobanglore: not now...later

romeobanglore: after 8:30

julietscity: Tell me what Ojas and Ashok said

romeobanglore: they are sad because I didn't tell them that I am planning to go to S city

julietscity: But they already knew

julietscity: S city is not a bad place... why they oppose

romeobanglore: they thought that we will both go to the US

julietscity: when you talk about job searching... don't you tell them your plan?

romeobanglore: no...they are not against it...they thought that I will be with them

romeobanglore: I told them that I had sent the biodata...but still they thought that I will come to the US

romeobanglore: they said that I am doing it because you said so...and that I don't give importance to them

julietscity: You become a bad person among friends

romeobanglore: Hmmm...

julietscity: But in the hearts of your friends... I stole you from them

julietscity: Do you listen to me no matter what I say? of course not...

romeobanglore: they had a thought like that...but that is natural

julietscity: Do you never show them what you really think?

julietscity: why?

romeobanglore: yes...that's not true

romeobanglore: I do for myself

romeobanglore: yes, I have...but they think that I am not doing it of my own

julietscity: Maybe you don't want to hurt their feelings at first ... but if you say nothing... they think you agree with them

julietscity: so... They have great expectations for you to go with them.

romeobanglore: yes...you are right...I have given hints to them

julietscity: BUT...you can tell them... don't worry... if possible... you will still go with them

romeobanglore: but still it is not sure that I will get a job there

romeobanglore: honey...what to do?

julietscity: Tell them not to dislike me...

romeobanglore: I told them that

julietscity: You are somebody... they trust you so much and love working with you

romeobanglore: but I want to be with you

romeobanglore: you are more than that

julietscity: I know...but... going to the US is the dream of every software engineer

romeobanglore: they love to work and enjoy with me...

romeobanglore: but you want to live with me

romeobanglore: that's more

romeobanglore: going to the US is a dream only because of money

romeobanglore: nothing else

julietscity: we need to save more money and maybe settle down at somewhere

romeobanglore: in S city, even if the salary is lesser than the US, the cost of day-to-day living is also less

romeobanglore: so that's a balance

julietscity: Hema said ... Staying in the US may be my only chance... but... I need to work there... at first, it wasn't... but... it takes money

julietscity: But still... none of the companies on our job bank website are asking about your salary requirements... or doing further interview notices

julietscity: it's the problem here...

romeobanglore: if we could get married, you don't need any work...we will live together

romeobanglore: yes...I am disappointed

julietscity: I told you that our government has investigated the job needs of foreign software engineers, and now some companies have raised their needs.

romeobanglore: and what did they find out?

julietscity: Indian software engineers have listed on it from the website...

julietscity: Even if it is only 3-5%, it means there is still a manpower requirement here

romeobanglore: no...you haven't told

romeobanglore: they might be on a contract from their companies outside your country

romeobanglore: hmmm...I have some hopes in Siemens

julietscity: I see some Indian, Iran or Saudi Arabia downstairs in my office

julietscity: They are learning our language in my office upstairs... so... my colleague said that there are many Indians around this building

romeobanglore: your colleagues don't like them?

julietscity: they learn it in the institute

julietscity: my colleagues like them. To us, our company looks like an office with an international perspective.

julietscity: in S city...foreigners are very popular here ... especially they are smiling plainly, politely and are not afraid to communicate with locals in our language

romeobanglore: hmmm...but I couldn't find any job there

romeobanglore: today I got mail from another consultant about the US. I will wait for Siemens S city

julietscity: why you logged out?

romeobanglore: server problem

julietscity: oh...

julietscity: How many people are there in your office now?

romeobanglore: Devesh is here

romeobanglore: why?

julietscity: Devesh will stay in this company?

romeobanglore: hahaha...he will go in sometime

romeobanglore: he plans to leave next year

julietscity: he is very senior

romeobanglore: 2 years senior to me

julietscity: so...does he plans to go to the US?

romeobanglore: he is waiting for his sister's marriage

romeobanglore: he wants to go to the US from some company in India

julietscity: He still wants to work in India

romeobanglore: yes...he wants to be with his family

julietscity: If you tell your mother that you can work in City S, what will they think?

romeobanglore: they won't think anything bad...because they don't know anything about working abroad

romeobanglore: for them, the US is the same as your country

julietscity: If the company requires a contract longer than three years... would you accept it or would your parents accept it?

romeobanglore: not much difference for them

romeobanglore: I will accept

romeobanglore: I can convince my parents

julietscity: but your Mom...

julietscity: ok...

julietscity: Siemens...

julietscity: Can I call that company?

romeobanglore: wait for some 2/3 days

julietscity: ok... Maybe tomorrow we will receive their sorry email... tomorrow is Friday

julietscity: some 2/3 days...it will be next week

romeobanglore: hmmm......

romeobanglore: yes, next week, call them and enquire.

julietscity: I called them and just asked them if they got your resume... just make sure

julietscity: can I do it tomorrow?

romeobanglore: they also need some time to check all the resumes they have got

julietscity: yes... So I'm afraid they will miss your resume... just make sure it

romeobanglore: Do you want to do it tomorrow?

julietscity: yes...very much

julietscity: I just want double confirmation, I don't want to harass them

julietscity: please...

romeobanglore: ok...just call them and ask whether they will recruit a foreigner

julietscity: ha! ask them whether they will recruit a foreigner?

romeobanglore: ok

julietscity: if they said no... I'm afraid I will argue with them

julietscity: I have a bad temper

romeobanglore: ohhhh...no...don't ask them then

romeobanglore: can you promise that you won't fight with them

julietscity: ok...I will try to be polite and cute

romeobanglore: cute!

romeobanglore: sweet girl!
