Monday Blues.... and ME!!!

"Wake up, will you. Getting late for office." Mom said, sitting near my bed and worried about me getting late for office, on the first day of the week... the most hated day MONDAY.

I still imagine, how wonderful will it be if Monday doesn't comes and I can sleep for about more 2 hours than usual.

"Shut that alarm, I still want to sleep." I said to her, making childish faces with a voice of a innocent baby. ( I think so, that I really talk like an innocent baby while waking up, but my mom thinks I am not at all an innocent baby... HAHAHAHA I am not at all innocent sometimes :))

It was already 5:15 am, and I was told to reach office by 6:00 am as the shift had changed and I hate this shift, because of this I don't get to sleep as much I want and even it makes hard for me to watch my favorite television soaps, which I like a lot and I go to my imaginary world of fantasies while watching these serials.

Finally, I woke up and took a bath in hurry as I was already too late. I had a swollen face because of Sunday trip to MUMBAI, wowwwww it was so fun :). Mom made some breakfast for me, her most famous Parathas which she forces us to eat in the morning so that we can have a heavy breakfast and she won't be worried about our hunger as we have eaten her big Paratha with full of ghee ...... yummy!!! I like to eat it with Kairi ka achaar, which she makes.... It’s so damn tasty and yummy :) :)

So, coming back to Monday Blues, I started my day at around 5:30 am, tried to reach office by 6:00 am but as usual I was 10 minutes late... isn't this a regular sign for Monday blues, sigh! 

I came in the office and there was no one in such a big premises, only one guy from other department and as I have already mentioned in my earlier post that I am a new joiner, so was bit scared or you can say tensed about handling the chats and tickets from our clients all alone for one hour as the other colleague in my department was about to come at 7:00am... and I made the blunder of the day... Yes, finally because of my dreams, fantasy world and still stuck in Sunday memories, I made a blunder. 

Well, we are talking so much of Sunday memories; let me tell you that what I did this weekend. Actually, I went out for a movie on Saturday, it was nice movie though but a horror flick and horror is never my cup of tea, I just can't take horror movies but as he forced and I was also excited to watch it, so finally we went for that movie and enjoyed, you can say it was a nice movie in all. On Sunday morning, my family planned a trip to Mumbai, as my father had a flight to Delhi from Mumbai for some wedding ceremony, we all planned to do trip over there and it was only 3 of us Me, Mom and my brother, and I tell you we enjoyed a lot.

We dropped father at airport and then went ahead with our plans, we went over Worli Sea Link, Siddhivinayak Temple and we did someeeeeee shopping, it’s by nature if there are two females then they are about shop, aren't they!! (Need your comments on this )

After, all this we returned back at around 11:00AM, had some stuff for dinner and went to sleep as had to wake up early in the morning..... Coming back to Monday blunder, let me tell you it was all because of this overly enjoyed trip, seriously!

I was feeling so lazy and saw two tickets in the queue (client's email with their query and problems are called as tickets) and thought of replying, as all of a sudden I started feeling that I was a master in this and this led to a blunder. I opened the tickets and as we are only able to reply one ticket at a time, I prepared both the replies in notepad and pasted it in the reply section and clicked on Send, instead of taking some time to read the reply for tickets I blindly clicked on Send button. 

What I did was I jumbled up the replies for two tickets and I realized it after sending the replies and this made an issue in the office, I felt a little bad and said to myself that how can I do this and I started imagining the consequences of it. Actually, each reply we send for tickets is being emailed to everyone in the department, so I knew that I was in big trouble. Everyone saw the reply and started telling me, lecturing me.... ufff!!! I started feeling again the center of attraction, how can I do this, huh!!! It was all okay with our boss, he didn't mind it at all, he explained me properly and I was relaxed. Thank God! That it didn't create a big issue. But, I think it was all Sunday and Mumbai's fault HAHAHHAHAHAH, exactly as I was in their world whole weekend and Monday morning, right? :)

This was my experience on Monday.... Monday Blues :)

Let me know your story on the same, let’s discuss and find out some solution for such blues and blunders! :)

I met a FATHER today...

Today, while returning to office after having lunch... Yes I do go out for lunch as I mentioned am new joiner and have no good friends here, so I go out for lunch with one of my good friend from my last office and we meet near a ground and have lunch and enjoy that time. At least at that time, I get some fresh air which is good for my heart and brain to think :)

So, while I was parking my vehicle in the parking of my office, I heard a voice calling me. It was an old man's voice, strong with full of emotions, as if that voice wanted to ask something and after parking I turned to see who it was. As I looked behind, I saw an old man, nearly around his 50's with a thick grey mustache, half bald, wheatish color and wearing some dull grey color shirt and pant, was looking at me with full of questions in his eyes and was desperate to talk to me.

Following was the conversation I had with him:

Man: Tai ( it means a girl in Marathi language) is it a call center, you working in?
Me (a bit confused about what to answer to his question): Yes..... ahh no, its a software company.
Man: Do you have any openings over here?
(I started imagining him sitting beside me and doing chat with our clients)
Suddenly, he asked me again the question.
Me: Yes we do, but.....
(He immediately answered, as if he judged my face)
Man: My daughter had submitted her resume, but didn't received a call, so....
Me: Oh! she may receive it in one or two days or else she could directly come as walk-in for interview
Man: Oh... okay, will talk to her and send her once.
And the man went smilingly, but his behavior and concern about his daughter raised so many questions in my brain.

Today, in India where at one side you meet people who don't want a girl child, girls are aborted, killed, thrown away, left at roadside etc... you meet a father who wants his daughter to grow up her career and do something in her life.
I too belong  to a family from North- India, wherein my Grandmother always wanted a grandson from my Mother, she did ignored my elder sister same issue as she was a girl and even ignored me as I was the second girl. But suddenly, she started loving me, because as per her thinking I was very SHUBH, because after my birth my brother was born, isn't it something very orthodox, but yes, I do miss my DADI sometimes, as she used to pamper me a lot :)
But, yes my Mother didn't make us think like that, she always treated us equally and gave all her love.
But, after seeing and meeting a Father like I met today, I seriously feel that the Girl is seriously lucky to have a father like him, but I can bet on this that he must be thinking that 'He is a lucky father, that he has a daughter like her'.
So, I think we have different thinking's and mindsets, but I seriously think that Father like this, can change the world and make a girl child to feel proud of hersel.
My best wishes to that father and his daughter! :)

HERE I AM... THIS ME!!!!

I still imagine, whether I can be a good blogger or not, but I think I can try this out!!!

Today, while going through sooooooo much of blogs and sharing and alllllll the list goes on, I thought of writing a blog too, offcourse it lightens your heart and you feel relaxed, right???

So, let me start my first story or a blog as an introduction, so that you people out there can know 'HERE I AM... THIS ME!!!!
I am normal Tech, in a so Great company, newly joined and as you know the new joiner are always the center of attraction in the Company. Whenever you stand, sit, talk, drink water (yes, rightly read drink water) all the eyes are upto you. I still imagine that am I doing something unusual by drinking water (please let me know on this) :)
The office is so silent, that even if u drop a pin you can hear the sound it makes... finally I understood the meaning of what my school teacher used to say in class, PIN DROP SILENCE!!! So, even when I am typing now this blog, I can see from the eyes at my back, someone is peeping in my screen (yes, I do have eyes at my back of head, everyone has it... don't you feel from your consciousness).
To break this silence in me, which is creating a new home in my heart SILENCE I always put my Headphones so that I can hear some crazy Radio Stations and enjoy some Desi music, you know what BOLLYWOOD Music always rocks, yes it does try it out. It does makes me feel homely and I can sit back and relax while doing my work. Yes, I enjoy my work too, with music and the eyes around me, sometimes I feel like a STAR, as all EYES or on you my girl :)
Don't you think, that I am just going on with the silence in the company . So, basically let me come again to my introduction. I am DIVYA, a happy go lucky girl as said by some of my friends. I am a normal not so HI-FI girl, who has simple dreams that every normal girl has, but I do have some abnormal dreams too(which will be discussed in the upcoming blogs from me). I do have a life partner, not married but HEY WE ARE COMMITTED!!! for life and all janam janam ka vadas and fundas. I have a family, small sweet family and even his family is sweet and small. I just want to explore my world and carve my future.
Hey... I think everyone is again staring at me.... let me check out on them and one day I think i will be forced to ask them, DON'T YOU ALL SPEAK, or only use your eyes.

So, everyone reading this do let me know your experiences being a new joiner in a company, bad or good, nice or so so, or same as me being the center of attraction. Waiting for your stories on this!!!
