Huffing Puffing reached home at 7:30 Am... thought of having a minuscule nap... A/C was on... Amit was on his bed in deep slumber... the environment was a perfect relaxing... and I started ZZZ....!!!
Alarm.... 8:00 Am... Buzzz Buzzz... who cares... let me have for 5 more minutes.. snoozed... Buzz Buzz again in 5 minutes.... oh ho... what the hell... swithched off, and dived into the dreamland.
Got up with puffy eyes and shocked hairs... what's the time man... 8:26 Am...!!! OMG.... and what's my office time 9:00 Am.. Oh no...!!!
The brain was running so fast... every second was generating thousands of ideas... and my body was not responding to any of them... It's 8:27 Am now.
Ran towards the "God & Deitie" - picture's prayer corner (Puja Place) in the apartment... lit agarbatti... murmured few mantra... thought: God, Forgive me today, I am late, ...what's the time now... 8:40... noooooo...!!!
8:45... was dressed up... shirt, pant, belt... badge... wallet... hanki... mobile... shoes... with socks obiviously... anything missing... yupp... Tie... yupp... Tie pin... no no no... opened the drawer picked up the tie without giving any thought of the match... put it into my shirt's pocket, picked up the tie pin... slipped it inside my pant's back pocket... time check... 8:47...!!!
8:50... Swithched on... pressed the ignition, gear, took a steep U-turn and throttled... must have yarn-dyed at least few girls of the hostel if somebody would have been looking. Clutch, Gear, Throttle... Honk... Repeat - 1,2,3,4.......!!! First Square cleared... green light.... time check... 8:54.... oh.. traffic... thought: hell these guys don't know how to drive... driving like a lazy buggers in the morning, look here this is how one should drive... Clutch, Gear, Throttle... Honk... gear up... gear down.... speed up... brakes... gear up/down... boom... boom...!!!
Rushed to catch the Lift... out of 4 just 1 was working... thought: "things go worst when you actually need them" except the traffic lights today... what saved me...!!! 1 Lift.... 8 people waiting... all office colleagues... lift no-way gonna work... took the stair... for 7th floor... Time check 8:59... and 30 Seconds...!!! Avg. 5 seconds for one floor...7 Floors... 35 Seconds... on-time... thought: I will manage even if I reach before the clock show 9:01.
Relaxing... scratching the head, forehead and face... why is it rough... beard.. oh... forgot to shave...!!! emotion: Traumatized
And who I am... the Quality Rep of the Branch...!!!
thought/emotion: &%^#@*&%^$#%&^#@
