Mujhko bhi to LIFT kara de

I have started working and already participated in one of the biggest corporate quizzes which is Tata Crucible. The result however wasnt any different from the campus edition and once again I landed up third. The prizes however have changed and changed to much worse. I got three books which I am never going to read, an optical mouse which is of no use as I dont have a computer. The only thing of use was a Westside coupon worth Rs. 250 but sadly it was missing from the gift hamper that I got. I am fighting to get it and I will make my next post about my futile attempts.

My office is on the third floor and as the office is AC (something which I am not used to) every time I want to smoke I have to go to the ground floor and outside the building. It would not be such a big problem if I wasn't afraid of the lifts. For the record, I am not afraid of the lifts as a character would be in a movie that I would not like but in a sublime manner. More often than not, I am alone in the lift and the thought process in my head is that if the lift cable breaks, I and only I will die. No one else will be injured in any manner and hence the powers above will not stop from doing so because I have done enough bad deeds to deserve this. May be I need a visit to "the lady who is sure" to get these thoughts out of my head. :)

The office is AC. I got a computer. I can tell the office boy to get food for me. I just dont feel like going back to the flat, I still can't call it home. I guess it would take some more time to make that transition. I could have left at 6 but it's 9 and I am still in the office with the excuse that its raining.
