I never thought that levels of privacy were low in my office, till I found these two ladies, who find the rest room the best place to talk. And talk, they do alright! They talk irrespective of whether they are inside or outside! : Now when you are in dire need to go to the restroom, trust me, it is quite unsettling to see, one lady shouting at the top of her voice at a restroom.. even worse to see that someone answers her back from inside it! :O And when they are not inside ( both of them ofcourse), you better not be in the vicinity, coz they keep enacting whatever just happened in their teams, and once almost mauled me in the vigour of it all! So much for going to rest rooms!!!
Coming to levels of privacy. Some people just overdo it! There is this one guy who sits next to our team, who feels it is everyones' basic right to know what is going on in his life. Right from when his wife got pregnant, and what stage the baby is, to why his wife thinks he is flirting with some girl( who that loony is, I've no idea. But believe me, she should be featured in AXN's Believe it or not, as soon as she is found!!) nothing is hidden from us. Perhaps he thinks he is really great that he is such a happening person! : The worst part is when he gets up from his seat, and takes in a 180 degree view of the whole module, to check if everyone got it all in, and then walks of with a smirk on his face!! : :O But trust me, he did make me go HA HA HA, when I saw my manager cringe after one of his monologues on the phone! :P I wonder if there is someone on the other end of the line. Hmm.. maybe next time we should check that out!
The team that sits nearby is quite a find, for it has one guy who laughs exactly like a 'Rakshas'-with-a-stomach-ache. He has no work for sure, coz he always has a group of equally jobless folks, and starts narrating his best lectures (mostly politics, or his previous manager, or how his 'periyamma and chittappa eloped.. bleaah). Worst part comes when he starts laughing though! He goes 'HUAHAAHAHAHA HUAAHAHA' and we all go covering behind our desks, evading the thermacol and other stuff that starts to fall on us! Must say, if ever Ramanand or B.R Films saw this guy, they'll pack him up for their next mythological serial/soap. He will sure do Kamsa/ Ravana proud. Maybe he'll even start a training class later for all the other 'rakshas' actors. Phew! Avenues of growth have never been any better, so has never been my imagination ! :P :P
