I have left something behind...

Its been almost 72 hours now but I haven't had the chance to reflect even 1 second on what is it that I m leaving behind. Leaving a job, a company is not that simple after all. Its not the just the job or the company you leave its a lot of other things - the routine, the people, the environment, the zone that you are so use-to now. But then life has its ways to surprise you, bring you new opportunities, expand your horizon and you make that call. The call to move on.

I have just been through the same and I too am leaving a lot behind me. But it will be unfair if I forget the people who have been so selflessly good towards me before I make the move. Here is what would make me remember them:

# Suresh Chahal, Krishna Joshi and Sudip Arora: for being awesome team members and my default event subscribers :P

# Rajat Jain: For being one of my true genuine fans in this world. Respect is mutual.

# Dheeraj Verma, Bhawna Gupta and Pratibha Shukla: For all the XAML help.

# Uday Mehta: For bearing me all this while. Truly, the one person whom a really gave a tough time.

# Gagtandeep Singh Randhawa: For 'Shandigarh' and 'Shotu'

# Anurag Mohan: For being an awesome friend and support to me.

# Kshitiz Sharma: For forcing his friendship on to me. LOL. Jokes apart Kshitiz will remain a dear friend.

# Divya Aggarwal, Ramanpreet Singh, Manish Kumar and Deep Kaur: For being my fellow Scrum Masters and making me feel I belong in their league (although I think otherwise). There is a lot one can learn from each one of them.

# Saurabh Panthri, Ankush Gupta, Amit Bharwal: For 'quick' code reviews and 'review comments'

# Subhash Chand and Harish Kushwaha: For being my fellow cab-mates.

# Swekriti Sharma and Jatin Khurana: For making me believe that its a mistake that we ever met. :P

# Anurag Aggarwal and Gaurav Jayal: For raising very few bugs on me.

# Hitesh Kathuria and Amit Jain: For believing in me.

# Mohit Bansal and Rajesh Sachdev: For pushing me in the right direction.

# Rohit Tandon, Sumit Jain, Arun Kumar Garg and Sunit Jaglan: For their awesome support when I was just starting in Nagarro.

# Gaurav Arya: For being an awesome source of inspiration. I salute this man.

# Jyoti Arora: For the opportunities she provided me in Nagarro.

# Isha Gupta: For being my first student. I gave her a session on Model Views. My first and last.

# Ankit Jain: For his politeness and calming nature.

# Sushant Khurana: For being a psycho equal to me.

# Vipendra Singh and Vipin Khari: Coz I could not get to know you more.

I wish everyone with whom I have worked (mentioned here and otherwise) a very bright future. I wish and hope you guys reach your true potential and reach where you want to be.
