Rally out of the Alley


Today was my last day at my current dept. Not exactly last, but i am on leave after this and once i come back from leave, i am attached to a new dept already..So my tripoders CK and Din were waiting for this moment for a long time already and we even made a plan how to make a dramatic exit.....
So in the morning after checked in , all three of us went out for breakfast, since we are going out we decided to have a rehearsal... And this is how the rehearsal went-
All three of us tugging our arms, Din played Boulevard of Broken Dreams from his PDA...it was looud enough for the rest of the office personnel to hear but most of them haven't check in...so it was quite a favour to us...Song check...and all 3 of us tugging our arms....and walked with a very dramatic expression in our face...Whoever in the office saw what we did and started laughing...Yeah it was kinda funny and i admit it....But to do something never done by others before...Now that's a real experience....Of course it was only for breakfast and it was only a reharsal
After our breakfast, we came back and were waiting till 2pm when we can finally check out....But then storm hit us...Our coordinator being very occupied or shall i say lazy, he asked us to prepeare our own appraisal and we need the appraisal to indicate our performance in that dept. Well somehow by 3pm all 3 of us, finished preparing the appraisals....But then another tornado this time i would say hit us.... My coordinator all in a sudden had the time to spare and decided to have an interview or shall i say more like an interogation with us....Din was the 1st to go... And I thought his session was very long...By this time all three of us are pissed cus we have to check out by 3pm, and its already 3.30 pm and still at office...At about 3.45 Din came out and told me there's an ammendment to be done to the appraisal and sped off to his work. By this time CK was in for his session...CK is even better, he took about an hour for that session....By that time, i became restless cus my turn next and once he came out, i went in...thinking to myself that my session will be shorter..Fuck to my own awe, i didnt realise it took me about 1 hr and 15 mins...I felt like it was shorter...During my session, Din sent me a message but since I am in the room with my coordinator, i decided to ignore that message first.... The moment I came out from the room, CK and Din informed me that i broke both their record...Damn...I saw my message and saw it was from Din and it said "u broke my record", another message came from CK and read "i am the record holder" and another message came also from CK saying that" dude, u broke my record" ....it was kinda funny how the whole process went thru..
So all done and its shobuda (ShowTime)....But this time we changed our song to "Beautiful Day" by U2....hahahahaha....Again the Brothers in Amrs marched out being watched by several executives and other staffs...We marched out with pride for our dinner....It may not sound as funny but the real scene is especially how slowly we walked with awkward steps and facial expressions....
When Fantasy and Reality Cross Paths.....Tripoders are marched out with pride....
