CONTINUE -> ONE DAY IN OFFICE : MYSTERY BEGINS

Track 3 : Sree's Entry

Miracle Guy –Sree

It was a reminiscing moment for me when I had met Sree for the first time in my Office .I was amazed and literally mesmerized by the Charming and versatile personality of Sree.
I have not seen a guy like Sree before, whose always smiling and Happy Go lucky attitude and behavior; can charm anyone from the desolate and disappointment moments. Sree is handling too much stress everyday because he is loaded with loads of work but then also you will always see a charming smile on his face. Sometimes I wonder how he manages to have a cool ambiance around himself where everyone in spite of loaded with too much of strenuous and reckless moments; feel a sense of relief and security. Courtesy, Politeness, Diligence and Ready to help are some of the very key features of Sree which have made him a Miracle Guy.

Near the Coffee Machine, I had seen Sree reading the newspaper and discussing about the current politics with some of our Colleagues. I and keer were standing near the Coffee Machine and preparing our Coffee. Suddenly Sree turned towards us and passed his beautiful gentle smile and asked me “Hey! Kshitij Whatz up ? Howz the current work going on?” I nodded; returned back a smile and replied “Yeah ! Its fine, going on as usual”. Suddenly some thoughts came into my mind about the current assignment work and I asked Sree for some help. As usual Sree did not say no to help me out and asked me to stop by his Desk.

I immediately rushed to my desk; picked up my laptop and accosted Sree’s desk. Within 5 minutes; Sree was there. I narrated the whole anecdote to him about the current problems pertaining to my assignments and Sree advised me with some good strategies and tactics to resolve the current issues. I thanked him for the kind gesture he had shown towards me and rushed to my Desk.

Suddenly some one screamed from behind and the voice was quite familiar to me. Finally within fraction of seconds I recognized the Voice. This was the voice of Keers and she was yelling “ Kshitij ! Please come here “ . I immediately ran towards her Cabin and saw her working on her Laptop. I asked her “ Hey ! Keer ! Whatz the matter? “She looked at me having strenuous and the gloomy look on her face which made me worried.

ONE DAY IN OFFICE: THE MYSTERY BEGINS

To recollect the anecdote and recite in a proper manner is very difficult task. Someone would have impelled me and forced me that’s why I am here to share this nefarious, mysterious, courageous and insightful tale with you. I tried to be bit flippant in the beginning to start up with this Tale but as the tale would Progress in the commencing future it will flourish will all the Proper ingredients of a well defined anecdote.



Usual day in My IBM INDIA company office. Stretch assignments were on rise and the Project schedule was going on in a much aggressive manner. Morning was dull but soon it had captured the pace by the afternoon. I reached office by 10 A.M and started my work. Some Tough decision I had to take in terms of the Project Completion deadlines and was busy in making short term and long term plans.





Track 1: Bala’s Entry



Bala sits nearby to my Cluster. A very Jovial and decent guy; Sometimes I wonder how he has got this much energy and exuberance without taking not even a single bit of tension and anxiety.


I used to think that he is having a very frivolous kind of attitude but soon my thoughts have taken a U turn. He gets frenzied very easily and at the next moment you can find him fraught with furor and confrontation. He was playing with this Mobile; very expensive one which he had recently bought. He was getting married within 2 -3 Months and as usual Telephonic conversation was going on with his Fiancée.


I just looked at him and he nodded his head and retuned back with his aggrieved twisted look. He immediately rushed to my Seat and asked me to take a Snap of his. I tried to capture his images with his Mobile Phone by making use of little bit of my Photographic skills. He analyzed the images taken by me like an International acclaimed Photographer advised me some tactics to take the snaps in a proper manner. I was not having the courage to dissent the dissertation he just now recited pertaining to the Photographic skills. I tried to dissemble my intentions in a different way and very much agreed that I need to become inured to learn the Camera in much smarter way.



It was 12 ‘O Clock afternoon and I was inundated with the Work. I wanted to invigorate myself and I started moving towards the Coffee Machine. Suddenly someone screamed behind my back “Chris, where the hell you are going “. I turned back and saw keer looking at me and smiling.

EXCERPT - INDIAN WOMAN MAKING FOOD WITH CHULLA

This seems to be deteriorating and forlorn picture which reflects the backwardness and poverty of the so called “Shining India “. This Picture was more common 10-15 Years back but the situation is not much different in the recent times in rural and some Parts of Urban India too.

Sometimes we are completely befuddled and disillusioned about the denouement of the current situation in which 23 Cores of people are still below the Poverty line as per the Survey by Hindustan Times, 2006.


Lack of Infrastructure and the proper facilities is creating demure and irreconcilable ambiance which could be deterrent to the Progress and Prosperity of the Modern India.


Woman using the Chula is misinterpreted as the traditional culture of India and is treated as a respectful gesture in the villages but there are copious factors and reasons which could be detrimental to the health of the Woman and can lead to other medical complications in the commencing future.



Using Chulla inspite of using the LPG and Electric gas perturb the Environment too.
The Harmful gas emitted while using Chulla can create hazardous effects for the Environment which can disturb the normal food chain cycle. If the Chulla is not properly lit; the Carbon Monoxide is the deadly gas which could be produced and will be very very hamful one.


The situation is still inevitable inspite of so many attempts to improve the conditions of the people but right now we can hope that sanguine time will come which can set an example with which we can proudly state that “India Shines”.
