Day 1 - 10 to go
Day 1
-----
Woke up on June 01, 2005. It’s a Wednesday and it all seems beginning to fall in motion very soon. The day before, a total indulgence of beating the heat with beer, come on 7 bottles, that’s almost how much a small party drinks. And after that long ride through the deserted streets of Mahalkali Caves road things seem very routine. An unfamiliar sight for most mumbiaties, i still manage to see Mumbai sleeping a lot of times.
Back to the day, lazed up and in no mood to do that little bit to save the world. I still manage to wakeup at 11, it all seems sequential the do be done things that almost don’t get done. The water needs to be heated, a bath taken and a visit to the most glorious places of all. Office.
And the office happens; the auto driver is all so sweet to offer his best talk of the day. The monsoons beginning to happen sooner then before and the fact that we could reach in time (12?).
The office is a weird place, you see so many people doing there own things – laughing, smiling, smoking, eating, typing that you really wonder how do these guys make money (I mean the company).
The day is normally divided into three parts, the first when you scan your card in, the second one when you sign out, and the middle one – the numerous time you go out to pick a coffee and speak about the future of this world including cinema, food, morality and other issues that get you nowhere.
Sometimes you have your your boss requesting you to complete a task. You just open the mail and something takes over you. You are actually sleeping but the world gets a different view the increasing no of bug counts, cross errors and things that shouldn’t be there. And they think you are really consciously trying to solve something.
Or blame you for bad commenting and bad coding and irresponsible behavior in java or c# dot net environment. I know a lot of people including dust bunnies who have seen weird errors rise all on their own. But they just don’t believe you, if they do the paradox is you stop getting your salary.
Hmm…this can’t be generalized I am probably one of the few who practice this weird format of work culture. Get up late, swipe in – swipe out, drink tea/coffee and then enter the surreal world of looking like you working.
and best i love about the mails, is the feeling of being in the army. you get a mail which requests some guy above to look into his sub-ordinate's details.

Hey... I had ofcourse seen this and appreciated it, esp this line, "I know a lot of people including dust bunnies who have seen weird errors rise all on their own."
But i guess the thought got lost somewhere before I could comment.
