BRAND-ISHING

Really working in Google or bought this shirt in Ranganathan Street?
Till sometime ago, I used to make fun of IIT and BITS students. Whenever they came down to their hometown, you would always find them wearing their college shirts.

And you will find them wearing the SAME shirt throughout their one week's stay at home! I used to spoof an IIT-ian friend by wearing a Nike shirt and pretending I work for Nike.

Things have changed though, now that I am working for a brand name myself.

It feels good to receive a gift with the company logo emblazoned on it! Be it a suitcase or a ballpoint pen. Strengthens the feeling of being part of a big family! :-)

P.S: I do not work for Google. It was the only image I could lay my hands on relevant to the topic :-)
