Managerial Talks

Well as we were organising for our college bowling competition this year we had some pretty good things to look after .... this post maybe for the few who wish to the manage things at a college fest ( well not completely) . Well as the dates for the beginning of the fest approaches we have pretty serious things to look after as in who gets what to do n shit


So it was me n my friend Rahul who had to goto speak to the manager of the bowling arcade . As it appeared from the talks of the manager we got a hint of how serious he seems about his work .

Rahul : Hmm ... I hope on getting a quotation of around Rs.100 for each frame

Manager : Well the price I offered to you ..... *tap tap tap ( goes his keyboard )* is 15 % less than the last years price . I think this is the best deal I can offer you .

Rahul : But we are a non profit making organisation sir , we are running the competition to involve people from various college

Manager : *tap tap tap* OK !Rs. 105 it is then not a penny less not more . *tap tap tap* Actually this price is 30 % less than the price I offer during normal times .

Rahul : We gladly to accept your offer sir ! Thank you

Moral of the Story: If you ever get talking to a manager of some organisation it is better to get your statistics right and best to carry your calculator along with you :P

I wonder why'd he take sooo long to answer every time he typed into the keyboard . any guesses ?

WRONG VIBESSSsss

Hello everyone ... My name is Kiran K. and I am an Engineering student ... well today i have a reason , a reason to write this blog piece . This is what actually happened

Girl : So what do you do ?

Me : well i am an engineering student actually Third yr. of my college

Girl : WHAT !!! .... what field are you in ?

Me : I.T.

Girl : WOAH !!! ....(goes into a daze ... thinking about something ... n says something abruptly )

Did you people notice something from the above given conversation ? Well the thing is that people have complete wrong views regarding an engineering student or may be its ME . I mean whenever I tell a girl that i am from the Engineering field its seems that the fact is completely hard to digest for them . This hasn't been the 1st time I have had this conversation but I have had it many a times . I wonder what pre-notions people have ? Heres the part where the girl hands me more of the indigestible talk :

Girl : I had complete different views regarding an Engineering student !

ME : Like what ?

Girl : I thought that People from the engineering field are completely into books and have no time for fun n frolic . Reading a 1000 page book , wearing Big glasses , blah blah ...

*end of conversation*

Is there some tribe trying to inculcate ideas regarding an engineering student . May be they kidnap people brain-wash them with videos of a student reading a book n telling them " This is what an engineering student looks like " ...."No don't look anywhere else look on the screen . This is what he looks like so if you ever hear the name maybe this is what he'll look like "

Well now it is clear that there has been a species of engineering student that hasn't been able to meet up to its mark . I rather not belong to them anyways . So the Point is Even if I wasn't able to reach the mark there have been a discrete troupe of people like me hiding some place trying to reveal themselves one by one and breaking assumptions about the ENGINEERING STUDENT .


P.S. No harm was meant to be implied to the guy wearing Glasses holding his 1000 page book . :)


I believe that there hasn't been much a harm to the regular student whose indulges in everything he wishes for !

submission + vivas = Pain in the a***

well to begin with ... wonder how would this world have been if students cud have the fun in this world and teachers couldnt ? well just to remind you there DOESNT EXIST such a world !!!

Well the feeble attempts to please your teacher go wasted during this week long run of festivities(for teachers i.e.) ...it would have to be the sheer fun n frolick that we have during the normal days that the just to make us repent we have the go with the **** during this period ...Now writing things that wouldnt really matter to you was your thing then you are an ACE . Assignments , Journals , worksheets etc arent just pieces of papers anymore ... they seem to you much worthy then just that , they are your daily bread and the one who writes them your only GOD .

As far as the vivas are concerned ... you spend sleepless nights and days , read things from all the reference books in this world but the day you have your VIVAs you are definitely gonna forget what you read the last night . The externals and the internals have deviced methods to completely brainwash you the moment they come face to you . They come with questions which seem to you as if you have never read ! and they willingly ask you for your reference books so they can ask things out of it ( maybe thts what they call THINKING OUTTA THE BOOKS ) .

So well fellow beings i would rather say be prepared or not you are gonna face the most deadly week when the time comes .
