I often feel like that myself. I'm either feeling like I'm spinning my wheels and going nowhere, or I'm being fired out of a cannon. I wonder what it's like for people who just have moderately interesting and calm jobs. And to be honest, I'm not sure if it's the jobs I've had or just the way I'm wired.

Hi Folks,
I am working for NetApp Client, Bangalore however My base Location is Hyderabad, and I have heard from a couple of NetApp Employees that they are planning to resume offices by May.
My questions are:
1. If UST is planning to bring employees back to office?
2. If they call will I be asked to relocate to Bangalore as my client's location is Bangalore or will I be working from Hyderabad only?

PS: My manager has left the organisation and I am the sole person from UST in my project.

At this time next week, the most awaited F1 press conference of the year will have happened.

Can't wait for next week at Spa.
