scene 5 of my story continued........demurrings of an internee....

"hey tulika.hi long time no see..howss u??"said pradeep
"hey heloos....m fine......wat bout u ??" replied tulika........
"hey guess what!!!!! my mentor has taken leave for 5 days......i wudnt have asked for nything better than this....." said pradeep with a tone which was no less than the opening note of an opera where the fat lady yoodles at the onset......
"hey cool man....u r lucky.......u kno something ???"
"what"???
"what does an intern means????"
"no yaar...i mean ya someone who is on probation????"
"not exactly....i was like surprised when i was going through word web one day searching for the meaning of intern....and i was like ROFL when i saw it meant "a person whose freedom has been curbed".......seriously pradeep dont u think even the people who made the dictionary knew what the word intern shud mean... hats off to their sagaciousness.......was that some sort off deja vu which they had.......surprising no......"said tulika..
"totally yaar.....these people have totally chained us"mumbled pradeep....
pradeep gets up and facing tulika starts giving a discourse.......
to an extent for someone like me i feel as if my creative liberty is being smothered sometimes.you know what that is the basic problem when you work under someone.as a general scenario what i feel is say i have 5 probable ways to attack a problem..now a person under whom i am working can by virtue of experience eliminate 3 ways and choose the best 2,which he thinks fits the situation....but for some tyro who has jus set his feet on the so called "altar"of professionalism he will have to try all the 5 only then he can solve it convincingly.....but then they dont give you the goddamnit time to learn it...or if i say so "U ARE IN A SENSE EARNING NOT LEARNING"...so that defeats the whole purpose.....

"i totally endorse your view but then pradeep,one should know how to prioritize "learning and earning together"..you kno what i mean...this is called professionalism dear...wherin you know how to prioritize your schedule so that you can learn while you can earn ,while meeting deadlines for delieverables if you have any...rite pradeep????"interrupts tuilika....
"ya tulika agree...but then like a toddler who needs a helping hand to walk they should also give us the support...in our context time....dont you think so???"
"ya dude...but then you know at times even they are helpless...you know its a vicious chain of agonies which keep on piling as this hiearchical mode of work makes everyone answerable to the person above them..so even they cant help...i sympathesize with them"smiled tulika with a concern which was genuine enough to invite pradeeps latent wrath.......
