office adventure

this is one of the easiest ways to get fired from your job. however, for the adventurous few, it is very exciting all the same. all you have to do is as follows:
- compose your latest career resume in your office desktop / laptop.
- keep 10 other internet explorer and word document windows open so that your resume gets hidden in the bunch of tabs.
- practise your ALT-TABing skills so that you can quickly switch the window in case someone passes by.
- get up, look around and examine the traffic near all the printers
- mind you the printers that you examine traffic for must be in a straight line view for you.
- fire a test print out (maybe, just with your name or some holy chant) just to make sure there is no paper jam.
- practise a little 10 meter quick sprint (at least 3 times) to the printer and make sure there are no evident clashese with any living or non living objects in the process
- pray to God for no mishaps with regards any of the above points
- fire a print command.
GO........RUN!!!!

i love the radio

Image
yes! i am one of the biggest fans of the radio. how many people do you know have a car music system but no cd's, mp3's or audio cassettes (old school) in their car. i am just one of them. even if i do have cd's in the car, they would be catching dust in the glove compartment, because life's pretty simple for me. if there is one radio station that i am hooked enough to, i need nothing else. when i was in the US, i was hooked on to kiis fm (102.7) in southern california - it plays in LA and OC. many people think that this station is too girly and plays the same songs over and over again. don't matter to me. i would religiously listen to the shows on the way to work, and on the way home in the evening. i would know the rj's, the 8:20 birthday game, some reality-type-fake-tears show on the radio in the morning and the works. they say that if you listen to kiis fm for a couple hours at a stretch, you would have listened to the same songs twice. i was still hooked on.

monsoon's here

here comes the season that mumbaikars love to hate. yes, this evening was the official arrival of monsoon in the city. it had drizzled a bit couple days back though. it started building up since morning when the sky started getting cloudy. by evening, it got really dark and at around 7 in the evening, came down the Gods from the sky pouring like crazy on the city. i was actually in two minds before i headed out for a round of swim to the nearby pool. i got in the car and drove a little bit. by the time i was close to my destination, the rain was banging heavy and hard on the roof of my car. i actually got intimidated, turned my car around and headed back home. i had kept an umbrella that we just got out of the attic last week (its a ritual everyone follows at the end of summer). though i had the umbrella and i had to walk only from my car to my home, i couldn't avoid getting wet. here i was taking all the possible care making sure i don't get wet. on the other hand there were

fascination for free food

its the day before christmas. probably my free food senses are too strong that i got an indication. there were rumblings of cake being distributed in the office on occasion of christmas. my free food sensory ears started locking in the buzz words like 'cake', 'eggless', 'chocolate', etc that i was almost sure there would be cake in office. just to make myself doubly sure, i innocently started taking walks near the supplies room and spotted what i was quite sure would be boxes of cake stacked there. more than being sure, i started being hopeful. and then i had to position myself firmly in my place and make sure i am not gone anywhere when the office boy started making rounds. and so there i was in my seat, tracking the progress of the office boy in the aisles before mine and estimating the time to arrival to my desk. and finally he was there. i looked up from my laptop as if someone disturbed me from real hard concentration. i looked at the cake and then looked a
