Questions – Unanswered?
If you have not spent the better part of your existence on earth (23+ years in my case at present) – sleeping and eating (Ah! How I wish those luxuries!!), chances are you must have had an eventful time here. And so there must have been questions that life had asked of you or even vice-versa, which painfully for you are still left unanswered. Well, at least in my case there is indeed a long-list comprising of few intriguing questions! How many of these can you answer guys? Here we go:
Ø The Office ones –
o What do you do with a vending machine, which is 24*7 “under maintenance”, so much so that even the nearby washrooms are under the same effect?
o Where do you hide on your Birthday, when you know that your face, head, neck etc. would be lovingly smeared with the cake in the evening? And which new excuse do you make to avoid the b’day treat that costs a fortune?
o Which of the following things do you give top priority when faced with an urgent situation: An email from your project manager asking for an urgent meeting to discuss one’s performance, A phone call from a distant friend who needs your help big-time, An instant message from a close friend asking for a quick 5 min. coffee break?
o How do you know whether your boss is in a good mood or not? Has it got anything to do with the way he/she speaks or interacts with you?
o In the rare case that you are able to complete your work on time, do you pretend to look busy on your PC or do you start playing games or do you ask for more work?
o What excuse do you make to a female colleague who suddenly comes at your desk when you were checking a ***Careful*** mail?
o When your cell-phone rings in the middle of a serious meeting with a cheeky ring tone, how do you react?
o How do you handle the parking guard in the basement when he tells you (in not the politest manner) that the bike parking is already full, when you are already running late for the office?
Ø The Flat ones –
o Is there anything else to talk other than office cribbing, office woes and the escalating “work-life” imbalance?
o Oh I forgot, yes there are ofcourse the pretty gals in the workplace. But what if they don’t give you a damn and most of them are committed?
o Movies, Cricket and other such blah blah blah……. Is there any end to them?
o Do you bang the doors of the bathroom (till they almost break-up), to let your flat-mate know the urgency of the matter or do you patiently wait outside for your turn (unlike hostel-times)?
Ø The Personal stuff:
o With almost everyone around you, seemingly enjoying with a good-looking girl, do you think it’s a necessity to have a girlfriend now? If YES – what are your next steps? If NO – it’s the same old story………..
o In the monotony of everyday life, do you feel the need to try something different? Even thinking about doing it is different I guess! Any ideas here?
o After almost 20 months since my first rendezvous with CAT, how do you stay motivated to finally crack it big-time? More so, when the mocks have already started mocking around with you………….
o How often do you go home or really feel that deep urge to runaway from professional life to relax at home sweet home?
o Do you dream about your screwed up future if things continue to linger on as they do today? Do you believe in these dreams? Do you constantly think about CHANGE?
o Is ‘Maybe’ the answer to most of your questions than a ‘Yes’ or a ‘No’?
Well, I think this would suffice for a start. And I assure you that this is only a small piece of the pie called ‘Unanswered questions’! These are the ones that came to my mind randomly, and hence are put in that fashion.
Frankly speaking, this was my way to finally Un-blog myself after a long time and on frequent requests of my dear friends!
Yup, its time to get back and start writing again………………….
One last question: Do you think that the Federer-era has ended and its Nadal-time now after the stunning Wimbledon final?
