Unedited version of an employee’s grievance letter to admin. department. Names have been removed / changed to protect privacy.
Dear Sir,
I am very disappointed due to bus driver’s behaviour of Sattadhar Route (Bus No. 2190).One of my collegue Mr. ABC from Engineering Dept. came 10 minutes before the bus arrival at Prabhat Chowk pick up point. But, due to his personal work at ATM which in first floor of that Complex where we stand daily. As & when he went to ATM, the bus came. Meanwhile I called him to come down. I requested to bus driver to wait for a few seconds till his arrival. But, the driver roughly replied me.
At the same time some persons from our bus also instructed driver not to wait for a few seconds. This has happened the first time from my pick up point. Further, from Sattadhar point & Gulab Tower point,Mr. Baldev & Mr. Dilip Patel also requested to bus driver.But, he didn’t stop.
Sir, on 10/9/2008 due to breakdown of Maninagar Route bus, I was one of the persons to push the bus to start for the benefit of our employees. From next time if anything happens to Bus from MNO Travels, please don’t expect any help from me.
Moreover, please instruct driver to behave softly.
Thanks.

I was busy with work when my mobile rang. A big smile came over my face when I saw who was calling. It was my hubby! :) But how come he was calling now? We had parted just an hour back!
“Helllllllllooooooo…., how come I have a privilege to talk to you?” I asked smiling.
“Where are you?” He asked. I was surprised. He only dropped me to my office in the morning!
“Office! Where else?”
“And where is the car?”
“Car?”
“Yes, car!”
“It is with you, I suppose!” What was he talking about? He dropped me to the office and took the car and now he was asking me where the car was? He has surely flipped!!
Suddenly he started laughing!
****************
In the morning when he dropped me to the office, I came to the office thinking that he is taking the car. He got down, took his bag and left the keys in the car thinking that I was taking the car.
Apparently, none of us looked back and we both went on our own ways, in opposite directions.
And the car? It sat there, with ignition “on”, in the middle of the road, in between two auto rickshaws.
But after walking a few yards, hubby looked back casually and found the car still in the same spot. He got worried and came back to check why I hadn’t taken the car yet!!!
To his horror, there was nobody in the car and the autowalas were eyeing him suspiciously.
(P.S. Thank God, police didn’t come and caught hold of us as in recent Ahmedabad and Surat bomb blasts, Black Wagon R with a doctor symbol were used to put bombs!)

I was sweating heavily with my heart thumping madly! I was literally scared of the prof. taking gynaec viva. She was a terror! :(
And the person who was going to be next for the bombardment of the questions was a chronic (he was appearing for the exams for so long that he had forgotten the count!!). Such calmness I have seen only on Lord Buddha’s face!
My viva was suppose to be just after him, so I was very keen to know the questions, just to get lead and feel of examiner’s mood!
Prof: So, you are back again, hun!
chronic: *gives silly smile*
Prof: How many times have I seen you here?
Chronic: *gives silly smile*
Prof: Ok, Ok tell me the stages of labour.
Chronic: *blank look*
Prof: Stages of labour?
she hands over a dummy pelvis and a doll for him to show the stages of labour.
Chronic: *mumbles something under his breath and shows the passage of the doll through the pelvic cage!*
Prof. probably couldn’t hear anything and the passage was so fast that she had to ask him to do it again.
Prof: Can you please repeat that?
Chronic (With the straigthest face ever made in the history!): Once the baby comes out, never goes in!
Meeting in boss’ chamber!

It was tea time and the time for the team to meet in boss’ chamber. The discusions usually vary from medical news to the new therapies to family issues to just about anything.
This time the name of Mika came up. Boss had never heard of him. So we all chipped in the information and reminded him of Rakhi Sawant’s incidence. Tothis one of my colleagues added that he is the famous singer Daler Mahendi’s brother. He wanted to emphasise his point.
So, he added,
“bachpan se!” (Since childhood)
And we rolled over with laughter! 😀 😀 😀

It was the first term examinations and the last subject (biochemistry) was left. I had worked very hard but was still worried. [This was my usual before any exam! 🙂 ]
It was the practical exam and viva-voce was on. At last my turn came! A lot of questions were asked and I did pretty well (I guess!). My professor was very happy with my answers, but wanted to check my knowledge further. (ab uski kya zarurat thi?)
“If you answer this one last question, I will give you extra marks over what I have already decided,” he said.
“Okay” I replied. (As if I had a choice!)
“What is the colour of the urine in Alcaptonuria?”
“Urine is of normal colour, but turns brown on standing,” I answered confidently. (The answer was right!)
But he was not satisfied, so he went on…
(Do you realize, initially, he had said he would ask only one more question?)
“Whom do you want to stand, urine or patient?”
“Patient,” the answer came automatically. (I swear, I didn’t think and answer!)
And your guess is correct, the answer was wrong… hopelessly wrong as it had nothing to do with my medical knowledge. It was a simple English language goof up!
My professor just smiled, patted me and asked me to read and understand the subject and not just mug up!
I was beet root red from embarrassment… but the damage was done! 😦
P.S. I did my schooling from a local language till 12th standard so was very bad at English then. Later, I cleared not only MBBS but also did MD with flying colours. Recently, I have cleared Cambridge University English examination with Grade A.
