Long ago in time of .. thats a crappy start.. let me come to point..
There is this guy called Rajendra Babu. He is an assistant professor in the architecture department of NIT-Trichy. Unfortunately he is the warden of our mess; the A-mess. He has some problem with the students. He is one of those conservative asses who want the students to be disciplined. Discipline is important but rule number one for an administrator is not to "%6 ck" around with his customers. Today was a bad day. The first thing in the morning that I had to do was visit him to submit arya's fine receipt. Luckily I met him just outside the hostel as he was there for administrative purposes. I said "Sir, good morning. Sir my friend Arya had violated mess rules so he had to pay a fine of Rs.500. Since his granny was ill; which obviously is false; he had gone to Ahmedabad. The deadline for submission is 5/01/07. So he asked me to submit the receipt." He, as expected, asked me to meet him the aftenoon. Sharp at twelve noon I was outside his office. I entered into his office and I repeated the whole story once again. He was uncertain about the deadline date but after verifying arya's details and then going through my background as if I am a criminal, he let me go.
But I had to face him again. This time for mess registration. I stood in the line for fifteen minutes only to go back and stand again!! The reason was that my departmental mess committee representative never attended a meeting. So my question is "How on earth am I wrong here?". If the representative doesnt attend the meetings, whats my fault. Am I supposed to push him and beat him up for that!! That would be insane. So I stood for another 45 minutes and finally I got my turn. Luckily he let me go this time. Vasu was also there. Even he was made to stand in the queue for the second time because he smokes and that his NITTmail- the intra college mailing facility was inactive. NITTmail is so boring and feature-less that no one uses it and moreover it charges us too. So obviously everyone will use Yahoo, Gmail, hotmail, rediffmail etc. The second time around Babu asked Vasu whether his father knew that he smokes. Vasu aptly replied, "YES!!". Then he told that he wanted to talk to Vasu's father. When Vasu removed his cell phone from his pocket and started dialling his father's number Babu was googled. He was caught in an odd position. His face was worth laughing at. Anyways I got my mess card and I have kept it safely as it was a war that I won because of my patience. I would love to have no more contact/problems/meetings with him.Thats the end of the story of my encounter with Rajendra Babu but he will continue harrassing us. But it wont last long!! The students are plotting and they are here for revenge By the way my results are out. I am happy that I got 7.35 out of 10. More than enough for me. Others might crib about their results while some might try to be too modest but I got what I expected
