Tough one.

Sometimes life takes a lot out of you and you reach a crossroad without any sign boards thinking which way would not take to you to the wicked witch of the west.

I have reached that crossroad today. Luckily I do have the sign boards. It leads to two ways. One which says "career" and the other which says "married life responsibilities".

It's definately not difficult to merge these two roads into one. But, here in India, you can't because apparently you need to be a PHD to even be considered for a clerical position.

I have a 5 year experience with one of the most well renowned multi national companies in Dubai. But apparently, experience is just something in the mind. It's the IT graduates from IIT/IIM or the MBA passouts from various schools situated in some remote place of this country.

Now like I'm uneducated. I am a graduate. I'm just not an MBA or a PHD. Somehow, that's not enough here.

And I fail to comprehend why??!!! No wait.. I don't want to comprehend why!
