Ahhh!! What a life!--- Inkky Pinky Ponky Reloaded.... :P


With a 3 month Work Experience under my belt, it really astonishes me of what am i doing really in this company! I mean the training was really promising, which a lot being taught ( and i was never attentive in that also!), but then after we got cubicles, suddenly the initial exuberance seemed to died out. Witht the 3rd salary now sitting safe in my A/C, i suddenly seem to be nostalgic with the experiences of last 2 months!Initially we were given a Mentor who is the Director of QA in our company! Gosh!! How terrifying was it to speak with him, as unluckily my cubicle is just in front of his cabin, and he can see what's going in my monitor! We were being given a nice chart of what we are supposed to do for the next month ( kindly note this experience is being narrated as if i m still in September!), and we were really enthu abt the whole "WORK" environment! Loaded all the requisite softwares in no time! But then we were expected to know our Product thoroughly! We were 4 who had joined this QA(Quality Assurance), and so what our Mentor did was he asked us to read some documentation for 3 days till he was out of town, and after he comes he wud ask any 1 of the 4 to give a presentation! I being as notorious as ever, hardly read thos Docs, and so from that time my TT n carrom spree started! Whole day i used to be in recreation room!! Then the D-Day finally came when our boss arrived... He came to my desk to see if all the softwares we installed are correct or not! And the first he noticed in my desktop was... Orkut, Yahoo, GTalk, and Media Player, with songs still running! He gave a nice glare to me, but dint close windows for the moment, but after a while started closing each window! ahhhh... u really shud ve been at that situation urself! And then my mobile started vibrating in front of him! Enuf was enuf i thot as all bad shud happen to me! But then atlast the boss smiled as he saw me displacing the mobile from the place in front of him to just a place just behind him! ( now that was just an instantaneous reaction by me, n i actually wanted to read the msg, but just stopped short!). Luckily i did a good job in installing those softwares to the correct settings, n for a moment i thot that boss is really happy with my
work! Now came the most interesting part of this bit of story!He got up and addressed us, " So guys, the softwares seem to be running smoothly, btw what abt ur docs? have u ppl read them? "We replied," Yes Paancha, we have gone thru that docs completely!" .... (Paancha is how our Boss is bein called.. as in the typical funda in the companies these days to call every1 by their names!)Paancha asked," so who is willing to give a presentation?"We all were STUMPED!! We were looking at each other with blank faces, as none had actually read! Paancha again, " So u ppl are not ready to volunteer! Good.. Now i guess i shud only choose!"Imagine this situation, 4 freshers standing in front of their boss! And now the magic moment! Paancha was silent for
a while, did something strange, was looking at each one of us in turn ( the sequence was easy to decipher that he was going from extreme right i.e me to left.....)And then he finally Said, "Ok, Krishna u have to give the presentation. Now its 11am, so we can expect the presentation by 1pm!."I was shocked, speechless, could see the demons flying over my boss's head... was it a nightmare for me?? Was expecting my roomie's shud wake me up by pouring a bucket of water and say," KC uth jaa... its morning!!"...But nooooooooo.... nothing happened! I could still hear voices from the surrounding! Indeed it was the Office, i was at my cubicle, and i could see my friends giggling on hearing that i m THE CHOSEN ONE!! Finally the long silence was broken by Paancha when he disclosed his mantra of the selection," Guys u shud know how i chose him! I followed Inkky Pinky Ponky....." And then all bursted laughing!! Wowwwwwww!!! And then rest is history! That day the presentation didnt happen coz boss was busy with some work.. the next day also nothing happened... but on the 2nd day one of my frenz happened to talk to Paancha and obnoxiously said,"Paancha give us some work, as we are tired of reading those Docs!".. Even though our boss was busy, he called an urgent meeting, and at that time i was playin carrom! I had to give a presentation without prep in front of him , with a stated of shock as no1 had expected the meeting to happen! I was quite numb during the presentation! Got royally screwed by the boss, coz i was confident of the answres even after knowing the correct answers!Anyways, next 3 days we had continuos day we had meetings with him, and he used to ask lot of questions which we were not able to answer.Paancha got pissed off as we were not able to come to his expectations! We had to report daily at 9:30am to him.... The worst part was we ve to be office so soon!!! And the traffice jam in Bangalore is at its peak during that period! Devil seemed to be reincarnated in our boss!I was really determined to show who i was!! Aakhir itna pakaane ka faayda logon ko, if i cant do that to my boss!The next meeting, i told other 3 frenz to ask questions before he asks!! That was our one big risky plan which went ahead with! And what a meeting it was!! Questions asked... they were answered by him, and then MORE Questions!!He he he... and from that day till date, we dint have any more meetings with him!!

Moral of the story????
