Now, consider a case when there is a candidate who is on bench, and another friend of his who has a long running project. They meet over a cup of tea and have a discussion, like the famous Deewar dialogue exchange between Shashi Kappor(in this case the guy working on a project), and Amitabh Bacchan (in this case the bencher)...
In typical Deewar style, the bencher asks : "Mere paas computer hai, free time hai, keyboard hai, internet hai, tumhare paas kya hai" ?
The project guy : "Mere paas .... PROJECT HAI" !!

Viju,
Its time u realize a "bencher" wouldnt get the same incentive as a "Project" man would. Also incase of a layoff these are the guys first shown the door.
Moral: If u r a long time "bencher" Wednesday Newspapers are a good thing to start with
:-)
Looks like we are sailing in the same boat. :)

Benched is a very depressing term. Think of yourselves as Super-Subs. You are brought in to get a job done because only you have the know-how. Your highly strung and supreme skills are in such short supply that your employers are willing to give you adequate rest between jobs, in order to give you time to recharge your batteries. Who knows when you will be required to once again leave the commoners in awe of your unimaginable talents. :>
The glass is always half full, lads.
and what do you call a guy who gets paid for writing blogs in office?!
