I Miss.....


I miss the three ,the carom board ,the fights...


I miss the shouts and the pandemonium...

I miss the power cuts , the big fat orange candle and the fireflies..

I miss the bruises and cuts the summer leaves behind..

I miss the silent melancholy evenings and the drooping dahlias.

I miss the hot coffees , French toasts and the chitchats..

I miss the matinée at the local theater...

I miss the lazy sunday afternoons..

I miss the special masala chappatis..

I miss the black Hero Impact and the wind in my hair..

I miss the girlie-giggles ..

I miss sharing the blanket with u..

I miss fighting to be on the right side of the bed..

I miss the silliness of things..

I miss the comfort and the nonchalance...

I miss growing up with the A's and Mr.R..

I miss my childhood....

In my work shoes..


Calvin : Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help
( Calvin can read my mind :D)

You can pretty much fix anything that goes wrong in a team except people .makes me wish if ever i got robots to work with instead of humans....apparently u get to work with real people and heres the bunch that keeps me on the toes all day ...

The curious type ... a hundred questions comes out from his mouth on any given second ...this includes the most obvious of things , stuffs already explained to him ..feels like freeing him from all the burden bestowed up on him and telling him ..Dude!! don't bother..I will do it myself .basically he is the curious plus spoonfeed me type..

another of them is the I can do anything to please you type... he single handedly appreciates m TL's stupid jokes in Hindi , and you might be wondering what is so weird about that..well..His proficiency in the language is quite minimalistic .. weirdo!!.. He is dexterous in combining politics with work too.

There is the third kind , says yes to anything that comes their way , picks up everything explained to them in the first go , never ever does a negative syllable escapes from them , nevertheless at the end of the day they will be right there where they started off in the morning . Their problem : lack of courage to speak up.

The fourth kind is the one who does his job as if he is doing a favor . constant expression on his face is why is this b***h making me do all these, why cant she do it herself?? Kiddo.. u r not running m errands!!!

But ask me which among all these is the pain in the neck guy...he is the smartypants . He acts/talks/walks like he is the smartest person that has walked into the planet after Einstein or he is the treasure the recruitment team dug out..his intimidating animated speeches ,i do not care a tiny rats a** attitude are so petrifying it makes me(us) want to kick his bladder out..AHH!! dream on guys...tera number bhi aayega!!!

Last but not the least is the captain of the deck .Mr.TL .there exist two set of rules in m team. One for him other for the rest .He is so loud, he gives any loudspeaker a run for their money and if you do not abide by his rules, free lectures are guaranteed . and you mite be interested to know his rules.. long leaves even when all hell is breaking loose , phone switched off when on leave n weekends when we are screwing ourselves, comes to office at half past 10 and leaves when the clock strikes 6 ..and rules for us are free lectures for leave request , phone in anytime of the day even while on sick leaves , free lectures for leaving early or coming late , free lectures for pretty much anything ..makes you wonder whether he is fulfilling his unrealized dream to excel in the preaching sector..despite all this he is a decent TL. I give him credit for that :D

Whoever said everyday is a battle sure meant it...

Everyday Heroes!!

A conversation that happened between me and an auto driver ..goes like this...

Scene 1 : I stop an auto

driver : where to?
me : Forum ( my place to forum doesnot cost more than 18 rs on any meter )
driver : ok ..get in

Scene 2 : I hop in to the auto

driver :How much will u pay me?
me: meter charge
driver : thats fine. how much is minimum meter charge though?
me: 14 rs
driver nodes his head in disagreement
me : then how much is it?
driver : 35 rs..
me: what? ( surprised look on m face )
driver : u need to pay only meter charge , but minimum charge is 35 rs.. ( he sits with a sad expression on his face )

Scene 3 : I mount down his chariot ...gets another auto ...

One smart auto driver ( or dumb) huh....he needs only minimum meter charge and that being 35 is ofcourse not his fault right B-)
