Read it .. Dam interesting..


 One morning at a doctors clinic a patient arrives complaining of serious back-pain.
The doctor examines him and asks him" OK, what happened to your back?"

The patient replies "You know that I work for a local night club? This morning I got home to my apartment early and heard a noise in my bedroom. On entering I knew someone had been with my wife and the balcony door was open. I rushed out the balcony door and did not find anyone. As I looked down from the balcony I saw a man running out and he was dressing himself. I grabbed the fridge and threw it at him,That's how I strained my back"

Suddenly a 2nd patient arrives looking as if he has been in a car wreck.

The doctor said "My previous patient looked bad, but you look terrible. What the hell happened to you?"

He replied, "You know I have been unemployed for a while now .Today was the first day at my new job. I forgot to set my alarm and was running late. I was running out of the building, getting dressed at the same time, and you won't believe it but I was hit by a fridge."

A 3rd patient arrives; he looks even worse than the other two patients do.

The doctor is shocked. Again asks, "What the hell happened to youuuuuu.....?"

"Well I was sitting in a fridge & some ass threw it from the 3rd floor=)

EVEN GOD HAS SENSE OF HUMOUR


God was in the process of creating the universe.
And he was explaining to his subordinates
'Look everything should be in balance.

For example, after every 10 deer there should be a lion.
Look here my fellow angels, here is the country of the United States.
I have blessed them with prosperity and money.
But at the same time I have given them insecurity and tension....
And here is Africa.
I have given them beautiful nature.
But at the same time, I have given them climatic extremes.
And here is South America.
I have given them lots of forests.
But at the same time, I have given them lesser land so that they would
have to cut off the forests...
So you see fellows, everything should be in balance.
One of the angels asked...
'God, what is this extremely beautiful country here?'

God said....... 'Ahah...that is the crown piece of all.
'INDIA'
My most precious creation.
It has understanding and friendly People.
Sparkling streams and serene mountains.
A culture which speaks of the great tradition that they live.
Technologically brilliant and with a heart of gold.....
The angel was quite surprised:
'But god you said everything should be in balance.'
God replied --
'Look at the neighbours I gave them.

Few things about the place- Infosys, Mysore...


You might know everything about Infy.... Still ... Its worth a read !!

The place where someone called out at you saying “sir please walk on footpath” instead of someone yelling at you “ oye footaptha kya show ke liye banaya hai.. (u @@@ is the footapth made for a show??)”.

The place where every guy would ride a ladybird though he never dared test his sisters bicycle when she bought it for the first time.

The place where the alarms woke you up instead of Mom shaking and pushing you to get up.

The place where you always had a shoulder to cry when you were sad and a hand to high five when you were happy.

The place where watching movies late night was no issue even if that meant getting up early next morning.

The place where the gates tell you “you are entering a disciplined place, act one even if you are not one”.

The place where you can return the next day and no one would ask you where had you been.

The place where you were paid to study and you studied so ruthlessly like never before even though your parents paid
for your fees and you never bothered to study throughout your life .

The place which gave you your first salary and you have no clue what to do with it but want to do everything with it.

The place where every weekend meant a party or an outing.

The place where Friday nights meant going to a laundry to get your clothes washed though you had no clue how much Surf for 10 clothes.

The place where you remember mom’s food 24X7.

The place where you miss dad yelling at the slightest mistake.

The place where you can’t find peace without your brother though you always were at war with him.

The place where you realize you loved someone more than the hottest girl/guy in the campus.

The place where you made friends for a life though people always said friends at work don’t last long.

The place where you saw a life you never imagined.

The place where time management skills will be developed without your knowledge. You will learn to toggle between swimming ,
study ,GYM and home and always have enough time to do them all.

The place where projects means team work and you really have to work.
The place where people didn’t bother who you were and still entire hostel erupts in claps when they heard someone play a guitar or sing a song.

The place where all of them had some room keys and all that mattered were room numbers. You never felt far away from the
farthest person you know on the campus.

The place where you would go to a place called “gazzebo” and ask an unknown person for a smoke and then you realize you
made a big gang out there.

The place where you never felt odd to stand in a queue for 3 long hours to get a movie ticket with all your friends in the queue
whereas back home you always asked friends to do advance booking for entire group.

The place where you learnt 10 different ways to cook Maggie in a kettle which will be ‘par boiled’,’unboiled’,’half boiled’ but never properly
boiled whereas you only knew a single recipe back home and shouted at Mom for overcooking or undercooking ‘Maggie’ .

The place where you realize why mom always made a checklist while going to a supermarket because you always purchased 9
unwanted items from the 10 items you just brought from ‘loyal world.’

The place where bread, jam or bread, butter or bread, cheese always have kurkure as toppings .

The place where you realized you must be having more APPY and MIRINDA in your veins as supposed to blood.

The place where you spent talking to mom for hours though you rarely talked to her that long daily back home.

The place where you would call up friends daily just to tell them how much you miss them.

The place where you realized the magic of words and power of blogs.

The place which showed you the best of life and then one day say “you are on your own. Now go outside and face the real world.”

Thanks for the author of this note..I found this in a forum...

Mail sent by Narayan Murthy to all Infosys staff....


It's half past 8 in the office but the lights are still on...
PCs still running, coffee machines still buzzing...
And who's at work? Most of them ??? Take a closer look...

All or most specimens are ??
Something male species of the human race...

Look closer... again all or most of them are bachelors...

And why are they sitting late? Working hard? No way!!!
Any guesses???
Let's ask one of them...
Here's what he says... 'What's there 2 do after going home...Here we get to
surf, AC, phone, food, coffee that is why I am working late...Importantly no
bossssssss!!!!!!!!!!!'

This is the scene in most research centers and software companies and other
off-shore offices.

Bachelors 'Passing-Time' during late hours in the office just bcoz they say
they've nothing else to do...
Now what r the consequences...

'Working' (for the record only) late hours soon becomes part of the
institute or company culture.

With bosses more than eager to provide support to those 'working' late in
the form of taxi vouchers, food vouchers and of course good feedback, (oh,
he's a hard worker... goes home only to change..!!).
They aren't helping things too...

To hell with bosses who don't understand the difference between 'sitting'
late and 'working' late!!!

Very soon, the boss start expecting all employees to put in extra working
hours.

So, My dear Bachelors let me tell you, life changes when u get married and
start having a family... office is no longer a priority, family is... and
That's when the problem starts... b'coz u start having commitments at home
too.

For your boss, the earlier 'hardworking' guy suddenly seems to become a
'early leaver' even if u leave an hour after regular time... after doing the
same amount of work.

People leaving on time after doing their tasks for the day are labelled as
work-shirkers...

Girls who thankfully always (its changing nowadays... though) leave on time
are labelled as 'not up to it'. All the while, the bachelors pat their own
backs and carry on 'working' not realizing that they r spoiling the work
culture at their own place and never realize that they would have to regret
at one point of time. *

So what's the moral of the story??*
* Very clear, LEAVE ON TIME!!!
* Never put in extra time ' unless really needed '
* Don't stay back unnecessarily and spoil your company work culture which
will in turn cause inconvenience to you and your colleagues.

There are hundred other things to do in the evening..

Learn music...

Learn a foreign language...

Try a sport... TT, cricket.........

Importantly,get a girl friend or boy friend, take him/her around town...

* And for heaven's sake, net cafe rates have dropped to an all-time low
(plus, no fire-walls) and try cooking for a change.

Take a tip from the Smirnoff ad: *'Life's calling, where are you??'*

Please pass on this message to all those colleagues and please do it before
leaving time, don't stay back till midnight to forward this!!!

IT'S A TYPICAL INDIAN MENTALITY THAT WORKING FOR LONG HOURS MEANS VERY HARD
WORKING & 100% COMMITMENT ETC. *

PEOPLE WHO REGULARLY SIT LATE IN THE OFFICE DON'T KNOW TO MANAGE THEIR TIME.
SIMPLE !*

Regards,
NARAYAN MURTHY.
