I was gonna say "Ironic" again, but you know me, I try to not repeat Titles ...
.. anyway, yesterday, I was reflecting something quite ironic and quite coincidental.
I was chatting with an ex FS partner who just left my old firm at the end of March, and he was lamenting how tough it has been and how with so many partners, he's making way for the new generation etc.. I told him I'm amazed that after being shitted on by the firm (cause I truly believe he was cornered to leave) that he can actually spew such "firm upholding" sentences.
"I'm making way for the future generation"
"We all have to continue to pursue other greatness"
My arse man. When you get shafted like that, dying for the firm and now being slowly pushed out because of not making the numbers? F*k you, man!
So maybe I did make the right decision...
And what's funnier, I also chatted with another ex Senior Manager who left for Australia and now just came back. He too is "lepaking" without a job.
And there's yet another ex Senior Manager, "lepaking", left because of certain circumstances...
All of us are ex "Big ass custom built banking project" guys... died so many times on that large job.. the ex partner being the main lead, me, the application architect, ex manager from Australia looked after conversion, other ex manager looked after technical architecture for the front end... damn.. it's a curse!
