Very true Saumar,

It's indeed a gargantuan task to explain the difference to such people. I have 
committed the Himalayan blunder quite a couple of times. The moment you end up 
describing about the multi-national company (MNC) you are working for, pat 
comes the response....Ohhh!!...I get it. A BPO!! (like hell he/she knows..may 
not even know the full form, leave alone the what it stands for! You wince, but 
valiantly keep a straight face! He/she continues nonetheless...) It is really 
sad that you people in MNCs have to talk to clients all through the 
night!?...You try once, you repeat twice, thrice,  trying to get it straight 
again, ultimately you sagely bob your head and echo...yes, 
sometimes..especially when I can't get any sleep!  

"When you can't beat them, join them"... is what most of us end up doing.

Regards,

Gitanjali Hazarika

PS: Infosys is a helluva company guys. Great work. Show them your skills. Let 
them taste the power of Assamese talent. Congratulations once more. May your 
tribe increase.

Centres and the Software Industry are two different things; 
 it's pity people still don't want to know the difference.
