night life.....

wen i say night life.. it does mean the late night parties, long drives and all.. but more than that.. it means being in office, half asleep, taking calls..waiting for the sun to rise to mark the end of the shift...

well that's been night life for the past two years.. your complete system is upside down.. which body doesn't get confused wen u drink water every fifteen minutes from night till morning.. and which tummy is gonna be normal wen u eat lemon rice and bisi bele bath at 1 am in the morning..??

working in night does change a lot of things... physically, mentally, socially... u r completely out of planet earth...
u work wen ur freinds are sleeping.. and u sleep wen ur friends are at work...
u are on call with some angry american wen everyone snores at home..
they call u all the fs and bs for getting a credit card with high interest rates..
and u mute the phone and call him badwords in all the indian languages u know...
wen he says his social security number and u sleep at this end of the line, u ask him to repeat it another three more times..
wen he gets angry at u for that.. u say it's a sensitive data and u need to verify it many times..
sometimes.. u say u r from india and they say wow.. "i love ghandiji..."
other times.. they ask if u r an indian and they say 'u stole our jobs...'
once my friend krishna opened a call..the nest thing he said was "no nooo..i'm the human krishna!!". hope u guessed wat the whiteman at the other end asked...
and sometimes you end up with spanish customers hu spiks olly essappannniioo...they need sumbdy spikin spannishh...
i once argued with a lady because she wants to speak to my supervisor.. the reason si she hears an echo over the phone...!!!
but most of them are sweet... may be they belive that we have the authority to grant or deny credit card application for which they call..
most of them are too sweet.. and so curious about wat time is it at this end of the world....
