One year! It seems that it is a big achievement in the life! I would
love to put my thoughts on it.
What we did in this first year? I am looking back to see have we gain
anything or we are just on the looser side? I am not negative but you
have to be a good judge and can't keep only good things on the paper.
The first day or rather night was good here. Forovan (Highway 401)
took us to the Scarborough from Airport in the
evening around 7.00 PM after KLM's tiring journey. The city lights
were amazing (or looked amazing at that time). The night was
sleepless! You know lot of worry!
Next morning we were taken by our kind host to Scarborough Civic
Center. The queue was long. Long enough to indicate us
that how many people are coming to this country every day. Long enough
to encourage us that when so many people are coming here we haven't
made any mistake! And long enough to discourage us that we have to
face stiff competition from all these new immigrants. Of course the
line was showing faces from all over the world.
The second day was not bad. At least it was better than rest of the
days. After our eyes were settled after looking at the lights and
glamour of Scarborough Center and other malls,
I was advised to start looking for a job - a labor job! I was shocked
- man! I am a Civil Engineer, was in charge of a division in Narmada
and you are asking me to do
labor job!! He must be kidding I said to myself. Or he must be
underestimating my skills.
Then came the shocks with the list of people doing labor jobs - Civil
Engineers, Computer Engineers, MBAs, Mechanical Engineers. People gave
example of people working in factory who were getting 50,000
Rupees salary in India per month. My wife told me to go back. I also
thought for a while. Yes, she is right, we should go back. But when it
came to a decision, lot of things came to mind - what people will
tell, why so many people are still in Canada, There must be some hopes
etc.
And after sleepless nights of about a week, I came out of frustration.
It was good. I was prepared to do labor job.
And my journey started with lifting boxes.
