At lunch, the admin guy was worrying about high electricity bills to his colleague. Eager to curry favour with the admin people, I chipped in, "Perhaps its due to high usage of the air conditioner. A.C is not a need but a luxury, minimise its usage and your bill would automatically reduce."
He seemed extremely pleased and thanked me and left soon, presumably to tell his wife to switch off the AC during afternoon. And pleased with myself, I had a leisurely lunch and came back to find my cubicle, hot.
Aargh,! Seems he had been worried about the EB bill at work and not home.
Now I am busy, hoping to find a clause in my contract which mentions that the hours I put in, has to be in a pleasant cool atmosphere, though my colleagues try to compensate it with looks, that could convert Sahara into Antartica.
Aargh Diaries is a fictional series. Previous Aargh Diaries. Blog Post No.296
There are these ATMs I have seen where it is written that due to isntructions fro power companies the AC will be off from 9 PM to 9 AM . Leaves me wondering why AC is required at all for ATM use

ReplyDeleteerr its only a fictional entry, i was trying to make a point thru it, to someone:D
Well got to know your name today.
ReplyDeletethree cows? No wonder you chose a better name like wise donkey?
Is a wise donkey wiser than three cows put together?
I am kidding though. It is among my all time favorite names like Bhavani and Shivani.
:)) wise donkey because its gender neutral and i had a blog called kick (kick - the first expression of life:D)
ReplyDeletegayathri is not a bad name, but there are quiet a few gayatri/gayathri on the net, this one is better.
funny one of the few names that i like happens to be bhavani..
but its not pleasant to tell non bloggers that my blog id is wisedonkey..they automatically think smartass? which of course i didnt think earlier.:D
actually this seems more like Hot Idea, Hot Reception, no?
