Moving on to the “Studious One” in the group. He/she is just obsessed with the phrase “Marks… Marks… Marks” for some reason. Its like he/she has a sales target that he/she has to say this to a minimum 100 individuals each day or else his appraisals will be taken away. Let’s also not forget the fact that this person is also a born genius who has “knowledge” about whatever it is that you are talking about. Without any warning, they will barge into the conversation and start explaining the concepts like a third-class professor who has a catch phrase, which is overused beyond limits.
Then there is the “Speaker for ever” of the group. You don’t need to ask this guy for anything. They are like always overflowing glasses of water, just waiting for their next target to try and take a little sip to get the water level below the brim. But little do they know that behind that little sip is a waterfall of unwanted experiences, adventures and life changing moments. This person is not affected by the clear unwillingness of the person in front of them to listen. It's like a gift, they can zone out at will and keep talking without realizing the dates have changed. Well, at least the awkward silences are avoided with this person around.
Then comes the “Sane One”. Not to be confused with the serious one, this person is apparently the most logical human being on planet earth. Their logical reasoning cannot be reckoned with. No force in the world can stop them from proving their point through logic and “winning” the argument. This guy is also very analytical of everything that everyone does, in short, this person judges the crap out of everyone. Friends, foe, no one is safe from the “sane one”.
Finally, there is “You”, the reader of this article. A well-balanced mixture of all the above who is loved by everyone and the most important member of the group. You are the perfect one among the others, the one who is funny at the perfect moments, serious during the time of need, the story teller when there are awkward silences and sane when the group decides to something weird.
But these individuals are what makes these 1 or 2 years, that you spend in a b-school, special. These are the guys who promise to be by your side when your family is far away and there is no one to fall back on. These are the guys that put the “fam” in family. They are the home away from home.
Which ABG company would I like to work for and why?
I would like to be a part of Idea Cellular as I am from Electronics and Telecommunication background. As there is a Vodafone Idea merger round the table it seems to be good place to start a career. Even Idea Cellular along with Vodafone will be the largest telecommunication company in India. For me I would like to be in a marketing department and Idea Cellular along with Vodafone would have to strategize new marketing plans post merger. There are always many challenges arising in the company and I would like to be there as there would be lot of learning involved as well in this phase.
