Dreams can come true in the most weird and awkward ways!
I always day dreamed, "if only I was smart enough to work for Google" (or in some silicon valley company at least :)). The reason had mostly to do with their cool and funky workplaces :)
Well... it did come true in a way (minus the funky workplace part though) when my company (AePona) announced that we are going to be acquired by Intel!!
We did see some Internet talk few days back about it, but Intel?? nahhh it's just some silly gossip; we thought. Our folks had done a pretty good job keeping it a secret, so yes, we were surprised when they actually asked us to come for this big company wide meeting.
Then WE were asked to keep it a secret, but all of us went home and bragged about it the family :D
Then we had a day with Intel HR where we were given employment contracts from Intel.
We finally had the most awaited Day 1 with Intel on 29th April. Now we are proud owners of Intel mail addresses (something to impress the friends at parties) and have access to Intel intranet.
Really excited!! Whatever Intel has on hold for me, having Intel on my CV would simply rock!!
