deWine Flu..........

Well, guys, what to say…..I know you all must have become repositories of knowledge on Swine Flu…

So, I’m not going to give you any more Gyan on the same….

The thing I am going to comment on, is the fever created around by this flu fever….

Yeah, the fever of publicity, stardom, unnecessary panic and everything absurd that’s become hap all of a sudden.

Now, you might be thinking I’ve gone crazy or something, but, the matter of fact is that I’m as sane as anybody who bargains with a shopkeeper despite reading a board of Fixed Price.

The irony of the situation is that the people, despite being afraid of this flu, are having a secret wish of being hit by it (at least few like me :P)…..Reason is well justified, you might get a chance to be interviewed by a newspaper daily, or a RJ or somebody might see you as a brave-hearted hero who fought-off the ruddy flu as a villain.

I’m saying this, with full sympathy extended to all the people who suffered or are suffering the loss of health and money.

But, the truth is, the common masses do not feel the pain, panic and loss, instead, they feel jealous of the publicity of the other individual.

In addition to this, there’s another picture, of the corporate crowd; who secretly wishes to be down with any fever, Coz that’s the only way to get much wanted off from work for a while, with full hearted permission from superiors and co-workers.

The situation has worsened to the level, where, at the work place, people who want to escape heavy workloads, start showing-off symptoms of flu.

This is just sufficient to terrify the co-workers, and the workload simply becomes zero, with your manager pleading to give you an as many leaves as you desire.

I just pray, from the bottom of my heart, that one of the board members or chairpersons is down with flu, and a corporate holiday is declared, because though I don’t want to be hit by the flu looking at it’s after-effects, but am desperate to get a break from work…….AMEN!!
