Tem Almost Gave a Heart Attack to Sara Because of a Logo Design

Tem (Tim with an ‘e’) is our skinny designer and he is jumping and laughing all the time (even though he is not so young). He especially teases our skilled Development guy Mr. S. Khan with some of his teammates (bad boys). How does S. Khan respond? Well, he only smiles and tries to come up with sharp answers, but, unfortunately, he seldom wins.

I wonder if S. Khan has any links with Changez Khan. I don’t know if they are from the same tribe. I don’t ask S. Khan because I am scared. Why am I scared? Well, what if he knows Kung-Fu?

Anyway… It was lunch time and I went to the cafeteria to have lunch. As usual, I saw Tem with his bad boys, making fun of S. Khan.

Actually, S. Khan is getting older and he is still not married. So, I think, Tem will continue to tease S. Khan until he gets married. I hope he gets married before all his hair turns white.

So… everyone was busy eating and talking. Then, one designer entered the cafeteria with a file in his hand. He gave the file to Tem who was sitting next to, of course, S. Khan. Tem opened the file and then with a loud scream he literally jumped high with his fist high in the air as though he had won an award or something.

His scream was so loud that Sara, who was sitting behind him, got scared and screamed louder than Tem. Our soft-spoken e-marketer I.D. (short white dude) was sitting in front of Sara. He got scared because of Sara’s scream and he screamed too. I.D. had a cup of tea in his hand, so his hand shivered and he spilled the hot tea on his shirt.

As Tem had jumped high, he came back to the seat with immense pressure and even though he is skinny, the chair still couldn’t resist the pressure and… it broke. Tem fell down on the floor and screamed even louder with pain.

Hearing Tem’s sudden, painful, scream, Sara again got scared and screamed again. I.D. was already screaming and jumping because of hot tea on his clothes.

It all happened within 5 to 10 seconds.

You don’t see this type of scene in office. However, you can see it in the zoo when one monkey screams and then other monkeys start screaming one-by-one.

Anyway… So, S. Khan tried to help Tem get up. But… I saw an evil grin on S. Khan’s face as though he was saying, “See, Tem, this is what happens when you mess with Chinese people”.

And Sara… Well, she was again in the state of shock. Her mouth and eyes were wide open and she was looking straight. She was in the same position as she was when she had slipped in the hallway not too long ago. Her color had turned completely white.

Luckily… the poor soul didn’t get a heart attack. We had to get Ms. Ann’s help again to help Sara come out of the comma again.

S.Z. helped I.D. cool down by throwing cold water on his clothes.

Tem’s loud scream really messed things up.

“But, why in the world did he scream?” You may ask.

Well, he had created a really, really complex logo design, keeping in view the creative brief of the client. The logo design took a lot of time and tons of creativity. In the file, there was a paper with a message from the client that the logo design was simply awesome and it just couldn’t get any better.

So, he got so excited that he unintentionally jumped and screamed with joy… which ultimately turned into a scream with pain… and almost gave a heart attack to Sara.
