Call for Equality

I dont care if saying this out loud makes me a bad person, but, on a few given days I just don't like the smell of human flesh!

This aweful feeling came to me when I woke up one day and did not want to go to work. So I called my boss and asked if I could take a leave for that day, "No Sid, Bohot issues hone wala hai, too much work to do" (No Sid, there's gonna be a huge issue).
On reaching my office, I got to know that a colleague of mine was all ready to go to his native for a wedding, for! three! days!! Another one, a very dear friend of mine, asked for a leave on 28th of December(Monday) so she could have an extended weekend(25th being friday and Christmas). To my surprise, she too was granted the leave. And another one took a friday off as a sick leave and set up his Out-Of-Office mail on for that day. Now, how funny's that, a planned sick leave?!

So I happily woke up one other day, called my boss and asked if I could take a leave, "No Sid, really bohot issues hone wala hai, too much work to do" (No Sid, there's gonna be a huge issue). And then ofcourse, there's the 'I completely understand..' line which follows suit all the time!

With 4 paid leaves still left in my account for the year 2009, when I confronted him(the boss) about whether they would be carried forward to the next year, he grinned.... can you believe that.... he grinned!

So, before logging off on friday(T.G.I.F), I wrote to him over our company's IM which read something like this:

"Just for now, I really hate you."
"And no matter how much you say you understand, you really dont."

"Why?"

"Nothing"
"I just wanted to get it out of my chest"

And then I punched out!
