Hectic Battle............

Urgent Note

It is unbelievable!!!!!!!! I have got a group of some really lazy readers!!! Only if I gave away some treats as a bribe, my posts would be flooded with comments.......some really lazy people are reading this who are also shameless enough to read this, giggle a bit, curse me mentally or literally abuse me over phone and yet not post any comment. But I guess what most would do is to have a wry smile on their face and laugh it off saying  " Sala Nautanki".  I mean we humans really need some incentive to do something which does not have any tangible result.....Come on guys...I have insulted you enough to atleast say something in your defense....but alas you have developed an outer skin of a Rhino....would feel the pinch years down the line.........waiting to hear from some, who have any bit of self-respect left!!!!!!!!!!
Anyways, disappointed as it is with such a passive readership I have decided to keep on writing despite your cold reactions!!!!!!!!!!! By the way, for your kind information, I have also decided to pay for a black-magic ritual, performed with the sole purpose of targeting those lazy bums who do not comment on my posts so that they are struck by lightning!!!!! For those who do not comment, better watch your step, bcoz I am watching closely!!!!!!!!!! And for those who silently read the posts and then say via chat "Nice!!!", to them I say "Grow up"....atleast say something when and where it matters!!!!!!!!!

Enough of  verbal attack today....I cannot afford to give you lazy ones any more footage.

Back to Actual Post

Today happened to be a strange day at the battlefield. Suddenly in the middle of the battle we were low on ammunition (read internet server down) and it all the soldiers to have a group discussion (not like the ones in B-schools...this was more of random speeches of random topics and only the ones with loud voices were audible)
So, the discussion went like this:
The accounts person suddenly started saying why is it that always the branch head has to be a guy from the sales department. To this the logistics guy said, would there be a Punjabi chief minister in  Kerala??? Not understanding the logic, the accounts guy retorted how is this logic pertinent to the Branch Head issue??? The logistics guy replied by saying that it was too hot outside to discuss this issue........suddenly the sales guy said that it was because that sales drives the business so sales people usually become Branch head .....to this the planning guy retorted that what would the sales guy sell if the products were not manufactured at all, much to the glory of the mfg guy.........
suddenly the one who serves us tea said that IT was the all important dept as it keeps us connected.....and much to our surprise the service guy got agitated and asked that Tea guy to keep quiet.......
So the sales guy replied to the planning guy (refer to last para) that unless the goods are sold there was no point in manufacturing them.....he also said that if sales stops selling then salaries of all the staff would stop instantly but if production is stopped , the sales people could still sell the machines in stock as well as all the physical assets(including furniture) to atleast pay us our salaries for two months (should look for a new job within this time)........this suddenly agitated the Value controller(in-charge of assets) as he was trying to cut on the expenses and consolidate the assets and the sales guy was talking of selling off  all that he had done during all these years..........
During all this, the receptionist was sitting quietly, who suddenly inquired what was the actual topic of discussion....to which the logistics guy replied "Never mind"..........
By now the IT guy had arrived who was supposed to fix the server issue (remember this was the actual problem)...but instead of fixing the problem he was asked to share his views on the hot topic of discussion, which by the way was not clear to anyone........suddenly the tea guy was asked to provide some refreshments which he blatantly refused saying that this discussion concerned him as much as others....and everyone seemed to honour his sentiments..........
By now two customers had walked, one with a service complaint and the other with a sales inquiry......both were told to wait as the office people were busy in a "Meeting"...........

  Suddenly the sales guy said that there were shortage of machines and demand was more.....but the mfg guy retorted saying that the planning guy did not plan properly....to which the planning guy said that the sales guy was bringing arbitrary inquiries without proper planning....to which the sales guy said that the customers did not convey there requirements before hand and wanted the machines only when they wanted them......to this the receptionist(who understands the customer's view point) said that it was no fault of theirs as they had no idea about the rising heat......and we all blamed it on the weather forecast dept........
Now the IT guy who was feeling left out said that he should better attend to the problem and he was allowed to do so........
By now the logistics guy(remember from the first para) suddenly went back to the discrimination of appointing a sales guy as Branch Head.........the accouts guy was fuming by now as he was short of any more analogies........the planning guy suddenly said how KKR found there form when it wasn't needed......to this the
tea guy said how he liked Dada...but the rest of the team sucked.......suddenly the logistics guy refuted saying that Laxmi Ratan Shukla was good too and there was no reason to blame him.....suddenly some name calling started about the players........
Then the IT guy returned (it was almost an hour) and said that it would take some time as he "couldn't quite figure out what the problem was"............. The tea guy obliged us by serving us tea (which was "whoakk" to say the least)...but left with no choice we gulped down that liquid called "tea"........

Finally we decided to postpone the "meeting"  for some other time as the server issue had been fixed......and finally normalcy was restored..........(much to the relief of the customers)

So, as you see I had a really tough time today......really hectic schedule !!!!!!!!!
See you some other time......chow for now...........

NOTE: Remember the first part of the post.........I am damn serious about it!!!!!!!!!!! Choose your next action or inaction carefully ....."I am watching closely"............
