IT company Boss = Person travelling in Limos and wearing suits. Crorepatis of course..
That's where the company I work for, is different . We are lucky/unlucky too see them around us when having lunch/ tea.
It was that kind of an occasion . Our team was celebrating the successful completion of Phase 1 of our project.So this Boss, was standing there shaking hands with everyone .I too was desperate to shake hands with him. I started preparing the "speech" that I was supposed to say to him while shaking hands.
It was my turn now . I walked forward and gave my hands to him .It felt great to be with a successful entrepreneur.And I totally forgot what to say .
He said :I am Mr X .(X-His name)
I was so wonderstruck and replied : "Thank You " .
X : What? Thanku?
Me : Yes..
By the time the word got into his ear , I was pushed forward by the girl standing behind me(A mallu.she was laughing at my blunder). I realised what I had just done .But the event had started which meant I had had to wait .
I tried to stand as close as I can get to him .After rendering a small speech about the history of the project,he cut the first piece of cake.Every body applauded .He saw me there and said.
Hey Thanku , why dont you help me in dividing the cake ? Everyone was looking for Thanku ,when he came towards me and forced me towards the cake . All burst out into laughter .I was embarassed .And I made a false story and tried to explain how I got this name. But mallu girl----I hate her---:D...She shouted out the truth . And I was truly embarrassed .
Now whenever I walk in towards my cubicle ,I can hear people laughing and murmuring behind my back --There goes our hero Thanku...
One more nick name ...:(
