To be and not to be
There was this guy on our team in my previous company who was always surrounded by people. He would be seen imitating vadivelu’s mannerisms or would be talking out loud about something funny that happened in his life or how he messed up big time!!! He would hardly sit on his seat or solve issues, but most of the time would be seen talking with people. He had a knack of getting into any conversation and especially with senior management folks, who despite branding him as someone who only talks and never does his work, were always fond of him. Every time they would pull his legs saying he never does any task and would not assign any major activity to him, not as a serious reason and even will tell him openly that he can’t be trusted with critical work. But he was never penalized or escalated, mainly because nothing major or critical went to his queue and he was least bothered about them anyway. His primary and major skill set was communication and he was good at cricket. We used to tease...
