After havin procrastinated for days on end, i'm finally back to blogging!!.... its impulsive and compulsive!!.... deadly combination nah?!?!.....

My return to the blissful world of blogging is attributed merely to the humane attitude of my C.A. firm hu realised AFTER OCTOBER 31st 'ki yeh aapke khelne-koodne ke din hain'..... realisation has dawned pretty late on them.... whateva!!..... due to sudden surge of humanity and sympathy and compassion, they somehow decide to pack me home @ 3:00 o'clock..... had it not been for their benevolent gesture, i never would have gotten the opportunity to subject you people to pleasurable torture!!..... everyone u meet these days only talk of ARTICLESHIP.... everybody is hell-bent to procalim to glory his or hsi firm..... what happens inside is immaterial, irrelavent, inconsequential!!....... 10 mins lunch breaks...... 12 hrs work...... witnessing the efficiecny of the IT dept.... filling five 20 sides long ITR's in a day are all forgotten when u stand up to defend the supremacy of your firm.... not your fault either..... u r governed by a sense of duty, loyalty, trust, committment to your firm.....whether it leaves u @ 11:45 at nite.... or whether it makes u stamp papers.... or whether your C.A. fires u left, right & center, u yet inexplicably choose to believe and proclaim that your firm is destined to achieve heights of glory!!
But the climax of the movie is during physical stock taking!!..... climbing up on tanks..... climing up monkey ladders..... smellin wierd chemicals...... inhaling obnoxious fumes..... wearin a crash-helmet, rubber gloves, protective eye-gear and a thermal suit is not a daily experience, is it??.... u need nerves of any material but the ones u normally have to actually peep down when u stand atop a tank thats actually 30 feet in the air and is filled with some liquid chemical thats boiling @ 173 degrees..... u dont add to that liquid by keepin ur pants dry is an achievemnt in itself!!.... the cynics and skeptics as usual would undermine ur credentials!!..... even the biggest theme park in Asia wudnt give u such thrilling adventure for free!!..... if that was not enuf, u then proceed from raw materials to finished goods!!..... stacks and stacks of packing material..... each as thick as a note book.... one sack weighs 25 kilos!!.... phew!!..... since its ur first assignment, u r governed by high degrees of integrity..... so when one rack of sacks has only 22 bags compared to the 25 mentioned in the stock statement, u actually get a fork-lift, pull down 25 racks and count 22 on the 26th one and make a change in GREEN ink on the statement and SIGN.... what a feeling!!..... what a feeling!!... ur sign can change the statement of a/cs of a public ltd. co.!!....... how many inches of height wud i have lost had i just signed.??...... mebbe i wud hav got a few blessings has i just ignored that trivial matter!!.... but realisation dawns later than required!!..... but whateva!!>... was an experience to rememba!!
