A week in office..

Though I ve been working from past 6months, I m still a fresher..After 2 days I got allocated and as I stepped into my new cubicle, I got introduced to my new collegues..I switched on my PC, rearranged the things, put a few hangings on the board, pinged friends on how my new workplace is, played a few games of word puzzle and minesweeper, stared at a few test cases as if they were extra-territorial (infact they were!)..The days passed, I worked more and the rest of the things lessened as days progressed to next week..

The next week, my PL and PM were staring at me..I thought may be I was too overdressed for office and decided to dress a little subtle from the next day..Then when I was about to leave office i.e 5:15 dot, I get a call from her..I go running not to miss my bus..She started off sweetly but me being an expert at appearing to listen intently when I m mentally not even present in the vicinity dint pay heed to her..I guess she noticed my disinterest and asked me how many 'test cases' I had executed..I happily said 4 (great according to me and previous day was 3)..She replied "You know how many cases Chirag finished when he had just joined?". I said "Do I care?" (Ofcourse in my mind. What would life be without self dialogues?). She continued "He could finish 25!!..I expect you to improve..You have now entered corporate sector and blah and blah and can I expect you not to play games on PC..(But what would office be without games!?!)..I nodded to let the enormity of my crime sink in..And if you want to perform better, you can put in extra effort after office hours (why should I when I dont get any perks?)

She looked okay the first week..Now everytime I see her, reminds me humans are afterall descendands of apes..I sense a great prospect of a potential conflict with her..I love it more when I m an active participant..
