I hate you Coffee Snobs

Image
Coffee Snobs, I hardly ever came across them when I was in India.  At work I had 2 ( free ) choices. Press a button on an ancient machine and get either  Tea Coffee ( mostly hot water ) If I wanted to splurge in a proper Café , I would then have 3 broad classifications: Cold Coffee ( with Icy Bits ) Hot Coffee ( with Steam coming out ) Weird-Looking-Colourful-Drinks ( with weird names ) But since coming to Sydney, I see coffee snobs all around me, always with an opinion on what kind of Coffee Beans to use, or how they should be grounded, or how much milk/sugar/water and what not to mix in them. What follows now: Is a confession and No I am not ashamed of it. I like those Weird Looking Colorful Drinks, Yes. I do !! When ever I would go to any café with my friend, I would always order a color ful drink with names like: Chilli Morkel, Ginger Fizz, WaterMellon Sparkel etc etc. And she would order some or the other Hot Coffee.  Chilli Morkel ...

My Cubicle Lovestory

Image
These 3 guys spent the whole day together in that cubicle. They shared the same desk and hung out together most of the time. Although they had arrived from different places and at different points of time, but now they were comrades, The best buds that ever were. They were from different races and their skin color was different.  One had squinty eyes, other rectangular evenly spaced eyes and the third. My oh My The Third..  If you only can look at his eyes, you would be mesmerized and be awestruck by the beauty, the symmetry, the uniqueness in those eyes. They held in them a secret which only one who has spent a lot of time with the third could comprehend. Then one day SHE arrived at their desk, and it changed everything. She had skin as fair as the maidens of lore, a skin so smooth that you would not be able to control yourself from not touching her. And when you did get to touch her, your hands would slip and slide on that smooth screen.  But behind this out...

Thanks, But no Thanks - Man's View

This is an attempt to observe, from a Man’s Perspective the Blog post I read here , written by Ms. ConfusedYuppie . ( No No... No Flamewars please ) Let us first try and look at a bit of history. Prior to Independence the Manly Men ( Paedophiles ) of the nation were really interested in marrying toddlers ( Yes from my perspective a little 13 year old girl is a toddler )  And since then I am happy to see that we the Men have finally got our wits around us a bit ( still a long way to go, but a start none the less ).  So even though the average age of Men has risen only by 4 years, the average age of Women has incresed by 6 ( You go Girl ). Why this difference you ask me? ( Well even if you don’t ask me I am going to tell you anyways ) I think, the main reason for men marrying young is FRUSTRATION . Yes Yes.. Its not family pressure, its not, “Hey look man your all your friend’s are getting married and you are not” and its also not the feeling of “I have achieved...

So today is again going to be one of THOSE blog posts where I take an Email I wrote, modify ( fill in Bull Excreta ) it and then post it here. This weekend in Sydney, Us three Roomies/Amigos. Think of us as the Dil Chahta hai , Zindagi na milegi na dubara Gang or something, but much better than them. We scoff and laugh on seeing ZNMD on seeing the public going Ooooo… Aaahhhh…. On watching those actors getting paid and then using Computer Graphics to show them sky diving or diving or what not.  I laughed my ass off when they showed that doing sky diving changes your life’s perspective… err… as we do those things every other weekend.  Be it fly in a jet plane.. crawl through underground caves , Surf on sand dunes , explore forests on long  bush walks/treks , run marathons , win medals for them, climb trees and swing between them (No STOP thinking of Tarzan and Monkeys), and what not. Haa…take that you Hrithik Roshan. Katrina should be kissing me and not you...

Everyday in the Morning ( Or sometimes in the noon ), I walk to work.  Its about a 2Km walk from my home to work and during this time, I have my trusted and loved Philips Head phones in my ears, plugged into my HTC Desire. ( Woww... Lots of Sponsorship plugging going on. Do I get paid for this? Hey companies out there? Free Advertising. But again I DIGRESS ). So as I was saying, the 2KM walk which when done on a lazy leisurely pace takes me about 20 minutes to complete on an average ( Depending upon the traffic lights – for Pedestrians of-course ) Now most of my friends know that I can’t dance…Err... Let’s rephrase that… I don’t dance…hmm... lil bit more. I refuse to dance....

Airline Customer Care - Part Deux

Image
Airline Ishtrikes Again… Hi there, so my vacation is now officially over, I am back to Sydney after spending about a month in India.   This is a follow up to my post a few months ago,   Airline Customer Care .  Recap – 'On my last month’s visit to Inda I had to travel from City A to City B and since there was no direct flight, I had to book using a connecting flight through City C. So I had booked 2 flights by the same Airline flying from City A to City C and then onto City B ( my final destination ).  But after a lot of cancellations and calls, (read details here ) I got my tickets from City A to City D to finally reach City B as City A -> City C flight was cancelled .' On the day of Travel, my revised first flight from City A was at 9:30 AM, arriving at City D at 11:20 and comfortably allowing me to catch my connecting flight from City D at 13:50. But I had not taken into account the Legendry Screw-up’s of Airline into consideration. ...

It’s been 5 days now since I have started to learn how to drive the ( what I am convinced is the ) “ Most Evilest creation of Man eve r ” or as the people who have tamed these wild beasts call them: -  THE CAR  .  ( There……..right there – Didn’t you just feel a cold tingle down your spine, that’s how evil they are- But again I DIGRESS ) Now since I am a Mechanical Engineer ( WOO HOO…. yes I did pass all those 8 semesters ) I should be in love with these things and they were one the main reasons after playing all those Need for Speed games why I chose Mechanical as my branch ( That and the fact that after “Eenee Meenee Miny Moe”… Moe was Mechanical ).   But I should have been warned when during my Job interview (HR) with TCS ( WOO HOO.. I still work there ) I was the first Bakra in the hall and the conversation which I recall went something like this:  S ophisticated  H ighClass  I ntelligent  T errorist ( The interviewer, hence forth know...
