A final post, a few months too late, albeit. The mandatory, "The authors of the blog wish everyone all the best as we all begin a new chapter in our lives" bullcrap line, now would seem even more lame.
Instead, the GTalk status messages, perennially a barometer of the times, would say it better. Like the above starred one, for example. At the height of a dearth of companies coming for placements, the following conversation took place between two finance studs (FS) at NM. (No offence meant, is a disclaimer that sadly needs to be added, even as the title of the post was changed from 'A Farewell Post', to the current one. The consternating events associated with the last time the excluded word was used on a blog, having become an education I could have done without.)
FS1 gets an interview call from a company, which he wasn't expecting at all. So he sets his status message as, "OMG!!!". The reaction, I thought, summed up those times.
FS2: oye ... ye OMG kya hai??
FS1: uh ... OMG ...
FS2: haann.. koi company hai kya?
FS1: er ... haan... kal OMG international aa rahi hai
FS2: oye! sahi me! chal mai pata karta hoon
meh.
