I just got fired from my new job because of performance reasons. I was not good enough. Even though I cleared the interview well enough, For some reason I am simply unable to care about the job.

I am not able to bring myself to care about the tasks assigned to me, not able to care about them. I just want to do my time and leave. The commute to and from office in the peak Mumbai traffic wears me off like an old man, I just don't see the point in toiling to hard just to do a simple job. How pointless. I am feeling relieved after hearing about my termination news, no toiling in loud, noisy, crowded and sweaty traffic, no perpetual lagging behind the deadline, no pressure.

I simply fail to bring myself to care about my employer's problem as sincerely as they want me to and like the other employees do. Its just not that important enough for me and I can't pretend that it is, I would rather go for an ice cream after office with a friend than work on some feature that those business people are so excited about...
