Although credit cards, ATM machines and internet banking was very much present in India by then, I got my salary in a white envelope with my name on it. <br /><br />My first job was at the school where I studied, in a rural part of Tamil Nadu where my salary was a meagre Rs.3500!! I still remember the excitement of rushing back home to count the crisp notes and the joy of being able to buy small gifts for my parents and grandparents with MY money!!Deepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05629301732033178347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671536805876663540.post-6575345606210510832009-07-10T15:37:33.292+05:302009-07-10T15:37:33.292+05:30Sucharita, just to let you know that finally I'...Sucharita, just to let you know that finally I'm able to comment after 3 wks of not being able to! <br /><br />Actually now that I think of it, there are many who won't be happy about that....<br /><br />I know I commented here but just saying hi.
