Office Chronicles #1

If you are an employee then you probably know how it's pretty much impossible to have a life outside office. You spend most part of your life here and believe it or not, most of your life experiences would be here.

My office is cool, or so I think. I joined office with my philosophy very clear - I am going to stay exactly the way I am.

I will give a brief summary about myself:

I breathe and I offend people.

Office is like a zoo. There are various animals from different jungles trying to coexist. There's a power struggle. Everyone wants a bigger portion of food and a bigger cage. Few animals are smart enough to butter the zoo keeper for extra brownie points.

My office is hilarious. People here are utter jokers. Why aren't we in a circus, IDK.

A few tit-bits of the insanity that happens everyday  :

I witnessed an interesting conversation a few days ago where the senior manager and junior manager were having a sort of power struggle.
The SM is super strict about timings. One person you will find in office at 8 bloody 30 every morning. On the other hand is the JM, who hasn't set foot in the office before 10. EVER.

JM - "I come to office on my own time."
SM - "Ma team, ma rules." 🤘
JM -(smirking) "We'll see."

😎Here's me rooting for the JM. Now I am just counting days till I can bid adieu to my 7AM alarm clock.
It wasn't nice to meet you and I hope I never see you again.

Just a tiny glimpse of my life. Here's to hoping I write more tidbits.

Till then

Tada

Pain

What nobody told us  it never gets better it only gets older sometimes duller.  It stays with you like that ache that you are used to one that doesn't hurt anymore just exists. One fine day you woke up  not the same, an ache where there was none now a part of you follows you where you go grows as you grow older.

Book Review: Leah On The Offbeat

You know it is a good book when it ends up schooling you. I am too old to read high school drama anymore but seeing people rave about Simon vs The Homosapiens Agenda and Leah On The Offbeat, I finally gave LOTO a try. And boy am I glad. Initially sceptical, because the writing style is aimed at teenagers, the first few chapters were a bit difficult to get through. I found the language exceedingly plain, it was overall too kiddish.  It was when the characters developed in the next few chapters, that I was hooked. I have yet to read such great character development in a high school book.  Let's start off with Leah. She is your average protagonist -  angry at the world, a broken family, overthinking things, overweight, smart, the only difference, she isn't lonely. She has a lot of friends. Oh and the fact that she is bi, secretly. As we delve further into the book, her layers peel off. She is in love with a girl who is dating her best friend who happens to...

Those Pricey Thakur Girls - Anuja Chauhan

My only problem with the book is... WHY didn't I read it before! This is one incredible book that literally makes you laugh out loud. It shows a very relatable and realistic image of an Indian household, though having five sisters, alphabetically named, isn't all that common. It is set in a contemporary age which still applies to the Indian society. The hyper, socially conscious mother, with the laid back father, their bickering, tension regarding the marriage of five daughters, arguments related to property, claiming their hissa or part, younger sisters living in the shadow of their elder nemesis. The lives of the sisters and their characters are as different as their names. The eldest and prettiest married rich but is dissatisfied being unable to conceive, second one wasn't that lucky in the money department but has twins and sued her own father for her hissa, third ran away a day before her marriage and has been disowned by the family, fourth is her father's fav...
