SIGH-O-NARA
-------------------------
Two years ago
When I joined Ushus
I saw myself becoming
the US in UShUS.
Sayonara means goodbye in Japanese.
The company had a lot of Japanese customers.
Ushus, by the way, means morning.
The company had a lot of Japanese customers.
Ushus, by the way, means morning.
But I saw that
the going was tough and
the tough were going!
I reassured myself that
They were just panickers!
When I joined, the company was having a rough time.
Panicker is also a common surname in Kerala, this led to some confusion! :-)
but with desire-fuel
lit by the fire in our bellies
We were the 'get-there-surely' s.
I kept my faith
in Ushus
Somehow I knew
that to the top,
Fate would push us
and not crush us.
My hopes were not belied
Business accelerated (!)
and the HP-era dawned.
The company was merged with Accel, another company which was owned by a Mr.Panicker. Prior to this, we had landed major deals with Hewlett-Packard and things were sunny again.
When the sun rises,
time for the twinkling stars
To take a break.
A little bit of self-congratulation! :-)
Now as I am leaving,I see the U
in UshUs!
But if night should again fall
I'll be there
For U again!
