Party in Logo Design Office

April 1, 2010, a memorable day for logo design office. Why? Well, 5 of our colleagues (Tem is one of them) threw a party and invited the entire logo design office. Since they invited us on April 1st, we first had doubts about their… Plan. But, they convinced us that they were not lying.

They threw the party, because recently they have been offered a permanent position in our logo design office due to their excellent performance (Keep it up folks).

Several things were witnessed during the party that I want to share here with those who couldn’t attend. They missed lots of scrumptious rice and chicken.

Anyway, so, all of the colleagues, who threw the party, are jolly fellows. So, lots of associates in our logo design office had doubts that if they would really spend a lot of money on food for dozens of employees.

Considering the situation, Zee Shake came to me and said, “Hey, do you think they will really buy so much food?”

I said, “Let’s hope so and let’s hope they don’t bring food from charity, because I don’t trust Tem”.

Billy Boy smiled with his eyes closed and said, “I hope your stomach is fine today Zee Shake. Let’s not make us leave the cafeteria. If you know what I mean”.

Anyway, one confidential source told me that Danny (he is one of the 5 colleagues) was responsible for observing who eats how many pieces of chicken.

It was first going to be the responsibility of Aamir (he is also one of the 5 colleagues) to observe, but since he has a weak heart, he would’t be able to bear the fact that one person eats many pieces of chicken. He wouldn’t like to see his lots of hard-earned money going only into 1 stomach. So, Danny was asked to do the job to prevent Aamir from getting a heart attack.

It sounds strange to do something like that, but I tell you, it was a good strategy. Why? Well, when we have people like S.Z. among us, we have to consider such things.

S.Z. filled up his plate, ate it all, asked for a refill, ate it all again, took some rice from Sara’s plate and then took more rice and chicken from others’ plates as well.

Not only this, S.Z. also had a plastic bag in his pocket so he would take rice and chicken for his father-in-law to show what a nice son he is.

But, as Danny was watching closely, S.Z. couldn’t manage to succeed in his plan.

Another important thing I must share with you is something I saw for the first time. Well, it was our HR guy (I don’t want to mention his name due to privacy reasons). No, not that I saw him for the first time. It’s that, I saw him smile and laugh for the first time.

Yes, seriously, after eating, he was literally laughing and smiling. He looked really happy. He didn’t have a fake smile on his face.

I wish I could take his picture, so we could hang it on the wall and others could see him laughing too. This is what good food can do to even serious people.

Trick Question: Who was the first person to get food?

Take a guess!

Can’t guess? Do you give up?

Well, he was no other than our Finance guy. He is always rushing. When he comes to work, he says, “Let’s get the work done fast, we will get off shortly”.

Seriously, anything we have to start, he always wants to rush. I really admire him because this is how fast people of the 21st century should be. Hmmm…

So, anyway… Thanks guys and keep up the good work.

All the best!
