It has barely been a month.
How often do you feel you know a person, that too in a month? No, we havent spoken a word yet. Not even a nod of acknowledgement.
Yet the said person's cable company, insurance - home and auto(now thats a good deal innit?), cell phone - same as mine(our calls could totally be free)... or the fact that his wife packed more rice than what he wanted that day.... I know it all.
And if I do manage to miss the never ending phone conversations, my colleagues update me. Apparently me being from the same city as him automatically gets me this honor. Its more like a crib session but let me recount one incident.
The said person apparently told his partner(yes, his wife works at the same place too), "Erudi, Bathroom poitu varen".
I rofl and the exact moment the superboss has to cross the aisle. Life!
The said person's super powers include conducting a whole debug session in Tamil( who was he talking to? I can do this only if i knew mandarin)
- athu open pannu add, panni entha signal add pannu da...
Most likely, some time in the future, we will get to know each other for real. I will revisit this post and make it password protected.
But today, especially now when I have just finished taking a training, where one of the question happened to be " X blogged about the colleagues with their names protected - is it a violation of privacy " and the correct answer happened to be 'no'(!), I feel like I had to blog all about it.
Right?

So, how do you know this person? Is there a cross talk on his phone? Or is he your office mate? Or facebook updates?
But you can't answer my question, can you? Darn ! Now I am dying of curiosity.

I love it when we debug in Tamil. I had some guys from India I used to work with, they did that, somehow felt closer to home, and somehow all this engring mumbo jumbo didnt seem so foreign afterall. Bottomline I love it. And yea I cannot do it too :--( Why dont we have more tamil folks at work?
All of us can be entertained. ;--)
SK: :)
I hate when people communicate professional stuff in their local languages, it is rude no?
But here it was hilarious.
And the sad part is i missed hearing the bathroom comment!
I think it is kinda cute ;--) Debugging with colleagues whom you know well, why not? Why only english ya?
