Trickling Thoughts - Gilsbert the re"form"er

Intha ooruku vantha first week poora..form fill panna solliye saavadichitaanga. Address register panna oru form..register panna addressa upload panna oru form..SSN ku oru form..athuku register pannitennu oru form..number vantha udanay innoru form..antha form ozhunga poacha check panni another form!!! ippadi full formla en HR team enna verattu verattu nu verattified.

"Machi..ithana form epdida track panraanga? ethachum fill panalaina epdi teriya varum?"

"Adai..ozhunga ellam submit pannalay salary varumangarathu doubtu thaan..intha detail missing..athu sari illainu 2 months aakiduvaanga..unaku ipdi vera aasa irukka...raasa..nee ethachum sothapina enna thaan uiyredupaanga..ozhunga pannidraa"

"Paechha kuraidaa...help desk call pannia..innum naalu form annupanum sonaanga..check with them"

Gilsbert calls helpdesk.

"Hello aapeecer..Gilsbert speaking"

"Hello..can you talk in English?"

Telephone receivera paathu manasukkulla..."intha avamaanam unaku thevayaa machi...pesara aalu chinakaari...aana pesarathenamo buckingham palace ku pakkathu portionlenthu vantha mathiri peter..hmmmm"

"I..one form..send..you..how?"

"Now its clear...send scan copy of the form to this email id"

"Ok"

"Send your onboarding docs and fax the hardcopies to this number"

"Ok"

"Once done, send a mail to the below address using the postal service"

"Echuseme aapeecer..i one doubt have"

"Yes??"

"All three are same docs right?"

"Yeah"

"To be processed by the same department?"

"Yeah"

"Same person?"

"Ofcourse..what is your question?"

"Adipaavi..oray aalukkay ithana copy ethuku anupanum"

"Well..to be on safer side..if we loose one..we can always make use of the other right?!!"

"hmm...how about this..can i go in person and give them another copy"

That set her thinking..and before she could agree to that "idea" Gilsbert great escape.

Ha ha ha. Gilsbert indeed. Unfortunately, that alone won't do. You have to have a first name, a middle initial , a surname and a number !!

So, how about Gilsbert K Engineer III.

All rise :)

Enna koduma saaar ithu!!!!

We are a group of 5 who share our apartment. Usually me and one more guy are the last to the leave the house everyday morning. Yesterday, the one who used to leave first for office, didnt come home till 11. I went to sleep after the usual book reading session at around 11.30. When i woke up i saw it was only me who was still lying on the mat while even the guy who leaves for office along with me, had already started folding his bed!! I was feeling very tired and sleepy and was in two minds whether i should take off or go late. Still managed to crawl..brushed teeth half sleeping and swtiched on the geyser. I turned back to see, suddenly it was pitch dark outside the bathroom!! Since the light was On inside, it wasnt power cut and i came out to see what was wrong. The guy who folded his bed, had moved to the hall and was again asleep!! Then only i noticed, it was dark outside the balcony too!!! I checked the time. It was 3AM!!! BOOOOHOOOOOOO!!! SOB SOB SOB!!! That useless guy afterwards ...
