Bench periods in life

Did u ever feel the hardest work is sitting simply without any work in the office? Its hardest part I feel. I was being like that lot of days. Especially in software companies multiple days we have to sit like that in the name “Bench”. Lot of people used to say its happiest part . But they are in the shore and commenting these people .Once their legs got wet by waves, they will come to know the pain behind the Bench.

Software life. Its quite different from other office life. You will come to knowall your collogues by officially. A fake friendship will lie between everyone. You might be close among your team members only. You might not க்நொவ்is working on the next floor, next block, at least next team. A screen would be formed in everyone eyes. Oh. God. I am diverted from the topic. I came here to talk about bench periods not about software office life. The thing why started to mention about office life everyone would like strange and seems to be hard working. You might be start feeling damn bored in that situation. You may not have any work to do. But ppl in management simply asked you to study. They ever know studying by compulsion is how much difficulty?? When you were fresher or one or two year experience, studying may be looks easy. But when you are a experienced geek you will feel how difficult it is. Its really tough to pass the time when everyone around you are working something sincerely( or acting as sincere).In this you have to start act smart as learning something in the leisure times(What is leisure when you don’t have work to do).Eventhough if you do like that, after a week when you fill the status report for your week activities the guilty feeling might kil you. You might have start thinking what did you do in the past week. You may start feeling guilty to sit inside the office with out any work

.In some other projects a different case. People would be in partial bench. It means a maintenance or support projects, once client raise any defect or reques they used to get damn busy work . And in the remaining days they have to wait for the customer to give some other work. In the mean time has anyone think what whey will do in those waiting times??? Do anyone can assure where their carrer will go if company gets the workonly in partial times??? People may argue as company also loses its money by sending money for bench people. Ya . Its absolutely true. But the People in bench also loosing their carrer growth by bench times.

All the people in bench don’t mean they are having less skill set. They are deserved to appreciate by their hard work. But due to lack of project works they are in bench.
