I'm not an off-shore softie nor an onsite. I'm a total outsider! I'm not an engineer and has got nothing to do with science stream but everything with commerce. Why am I reading this book?
Well, it was on my shelf. How did a book related to engineer got on my shelf? While I was raiding my sister's shelf, this book too came along!
About the book : What's common between outsourcing and Christopher Columbus’s discovery of America?
How are arranged marriages related to the Software Development Life Cycle?
For you to command better appraisals, what should’ve your parents named you?
Why does your Project Manager always give you a new task just when you’re about to sign off for the day?
Why are dumb, attractive software engineers always sent onsite?

Why are dumb, attractive software engineers always sent onsite?
In Life Of A Software EngineeR (LOSER), author Dipen Ambalia offers some hilarious answers to these questions and more, having struggled through years of terrible appraisals, dumb instructions, Bell Curves and belles’ curves.
Do not take life too seriously. Don't take things personally in office. You must win over work, and not other way around!
Review : Life Of a Software Engineer is the full-form for L.O.S.E.R! Published by Fingerprint Publishing.
The book describes a life of a software engineer. As I'm an outsider, I had no idea how IT sector for 'softies' work. As this is the only book I read on insight of engineer's life-style in IT sector, I get a gist about it.
Dipen talks about origin of Software world, what engineers do in office, who get onsite opportunity and everything related to engineers. And gives some 'wisdom' on how to fool your bosses. Well, this is helpful to everyone, irrespective of designation!
It was a hilarious read. The comparisons were on point! But, the book didn't work for me. Apart from wit every now and then, the book is plain as textbook. Sometimes I felt I'm reading an answer. It feels good at start, the way the explaination is done, by columns and description and stories as example but, it gets boring as the chapters go down.
It could have been alot better, with the content like this!
