GUTS

My good friend (also my old rommie) got a job in Microsoft. He was called for onsite (Redmond, WA)interview two weeks back. But this is not the interesting part. Interesting part is that he wore a t-shirt saying "My stars say...I would be next Bill Gates" for all the 6 interviews held onsite. I could not help laughing. Now I know whom to refer when somebody asks me for the definition of GUTS. I would have bought a new formal shirt and pant for the interview and I guess this is a normal mentality.

The event changed my overall view for the whole formal thing. Its all in our minds. We tend to behave as formal as possible for such events in our lives. Why ? because its a right thing to do, thats why. We should question such assumptions and try to break the custom: just for fun. I am planning to do the same in near future like for defense of my Master's Report. Hope I would stick to my word, but the whole thing scares the hell out of me.....(hehe !!!)
