Office romance

Office romance. Should it be discouraged? This topic surfaced after we “discovered” that two of the newbies are supposedly “in love”. S thought it could affect their productivity and increase the attrition rate if both should decide to leave. He was all worked up about this. And his major concern was the girl is older than the guy!! We were like “Tumi ki meyer baba (Are you the girl’s father)?” He was concerned that the guy might not be aware of this “devastating” fact. So he was plotting to inform the guy about the girl’s age!! i, of course being the trouble-making/loving bitch, egged him on. My PL was like ‘you people are so wicked’. Ultimately, we decided not to do any mischief and wait and watch how the drama unfolds.

It is fun though watching them sneak out for tea, trying hard to hide their budding “romance”. These poor creatures are not even aware that we are aware of it all!!

My sister and i are hooked on to Bigg Boss – precisely because it is so stupid and silly!! It is fun watching people make fool of themselves…and we making fool of ourselves watching them make fool of themselves!

We are beginning to settle down in the new place. i am beginning to behave like a housewife – running for the mop if i see a dirty spot. We bought some plants and I am sure they are going to die because i will forget to water them. But my dahling sister is there..

S called up on Friday night. He is down with viral fever so he is working from home. We bitched for about 3 hours (poor guy, he must have spent about 25$ on that call). When the mood overtakes me, i can really, really blabber.
