No title comes to my mind and my grey cells refuse to oblige . So I name it “Blank “ .
Each day I get up (of course how long would one sleep , how stupid ) , breakfast , iron my shirt (yeah I'm happy doing all this) , a brisk Yoga indulgence to make me feel I'm doing something good , cleaning my truck (would u like to join ?) , gazing at the morning sky and wanting to fly , and then I suddenly find myself in office .
Cubicles , stressful environment ( you might not agree since you are working in a 'good' company) , a 100 reviews , some useless meetings .
Lunch Break .
I eat at 12:30 you might want to eat at 2 pm , that's more human . So I end up eating alone . Who in India eats his/her lunch at 12 :30 ?
Time to work . There comes an email . Mr John got promoted and then the whole office bombards Mr John with their wishes . Please 'cc' these emails to the whole team inspite of the fact that the email is meant for only Mr John so that we all can share the joy.
Mr. John : I knew you would do it , you were so brilliant from day one . Mr John you are a hero , Mr John when/where is the party , treat , food ............
Mr John is happy and I have no reason to believe that the whole office is much more happy . What are you thinking ?
The in the evening Mr Tom quits . Somebody was murmuring Mr Tom wanted a promotion badly !!
Its almost 5 pm and time for some coffee . What if you don't drink but still you can join the team . Try talking on J2EE even if you don't know a damn . Or how about some emerging trends , software practices Or about the ipods your friend's company gifted to all their employees.
Don't get me wrong . In between this crowd lie a few(very few) who work and enjoy Or may be just work and do not enjoy that much !! So we have some real performers.
Its six . Time to leave but then leaving at six means you are not putting much effort . You might wan't to check some emails . And then at 7 the Manager says : Guys lets have a brisk meeting . Meeting goes on and on and in the end its 9 .
A day has come to an end and I am Blank !!! And I mean it .

quite true... but surly i feel someone has to change the trend.
I find it so frustrating, when people speically in indian companies expect you to be at work round the clock. in US people leave at 0500pm or early(although they start much early), in Israel people dont work on saturday or shabbat, what so ever might happen.
then Y us, in cyprus, where most of us are indians, and so are managers, they would like to see us till 0730 atleast. but not me :) i leave my place sincerely at 0630 or 0700 max, unless i am caught up in chat ;)
well....need to really rack by brains to remember when was the last time I was in office after 6 ;)... and oh yeah...i wudn't mind joining u in cleaning the truck as long as i get the keys to it now ad then...
btw.. lunch is between 12:30 - 1:00 :)
- jyo
