As the software industry is down yesterday’s news items are the whole world has turned upside down, the industries of real estate, banking etc have shown and reported loss and also because of high class life of software the middle class is facing problems.
Who are software engineers? Have they come down from the sky? Is that industry specially designed? They come from low class and middle class with their hard work and study. Today they are in this stage because of their un-relented efforts with their steadfastness and determination and with their earnings they have fulfilled their dreams. All financial institutions have made enormous money because of the high pay of software engineers as these high salaries were paid to them by the industry only because of their cleverness, timeliness and on time quality delivery.
Every industry will have its boom and then over a period of time will come down. This does not mean that they are worthless. Our biggest drawback is to compare our self with others and also demeaning one self. For us to grow and also to fulfill our dreams we can do so from any industry. There are many who with their hard work have grown from poverty to millionaires.
If in any company a scam occurs, the employees are blamed by saying that it happened because of them, there is no boom, and we thought that this would happen and not talking to them as they were interacting earlier etc. All this is leading to the depression of some of the employees of that company. We need not do anything special, we need to be mind full of the fact that we will do lot of good by not hurting them with our words and jokes.
As the famous writer Yandamoori Veerendranath said, the wave which has gone up has to come down necessarily, the software boom has enabled the power of purchase, and as the industry is down the power of purchase has come down, but that does not imply that there is no development. We need to welcome CHANGE.
I agree and also software professional should not think about the IT boom when he is confident with what he/she doing.
