Everyday is chillier than the last one and it is becoming difficult to reach the office on time.
After hitting the Snooze button at-least 6 times, I finally wake up at 7:45 A.M.
First things first: Coffee, I need my caffeine kick as soon as I wake up else I am practically dis-functional. After getting ready I leave for work at around 9:15, need to be there on time :9:30.
Reach the office by 9:28, what do I see ?-the office is half empty. As usual its only Nisha ma’am who has reached the office before anyone else. Of course Laxmi is dragged with Nisha ma’am everyday (they are roommate you see). The usual goes on, mark the attendance, have water (now that we have a microwave I prefer hot water). The day at work starts, log in and look for any new mails and after log-into our Customer Support Panel, there are so many people wanting to know so many things and they expect us to have all the answers!!
That’s a lot of pressure, hun… well, we manage ![]()
After looking at all of the tickets, I seriously feel that I should take a break. Well, that not possible, so I move on to the next assigned task. The sheet is usually huge and I try to figure out what will I do and how am I supposed to manage all of this.
I think assigning your self with Deadlines is the best way to get your work done, this is something that I have been following for a very long time now. Around 1:00 I get enthusiastic again coz I know after half and hour we will be able to relax and most importantly eat something.
Ahh,,, finally 1:30 cant wait to eat, its not like we don’t eat anything the entire day, in fact I feel that eating is also a part of our job. Almost everyone at MARKACE is a foodie, so glad!!
I eat what everyone brings, Sandeep is by far the best cook that I have met (besides my mum) and I love whatever she brings. I always have to force everyone to eat, gosh they are so swamped with work.
Time To eat: Done, that’s how fast our food finishes
1:45 now, still have a lot of time, the girls catch up on their gossips and the boys Play Table Tennis as usual. Around 2:15 many of us are on our desk’s Facebooking, you have got to know whats going on in the world as well.
Back To Work: 2:30, the second half passes by quickly, as we all have tons to do and so little time. Around 4 everyone is looking for someway or the other to survive and what do we get ? Tea, I prefer coffee!!!! After that I have the energy to work for two more hours!
As the time passes its finally 6 P.M. Time for all of us to head back home, going downstairs we discuss how many tasks have we completed and how much is left!!
To sum it up, everyday at work is just fantastic and I enjoy coming back!

Great Post Rakhi. The title of the post however reminds me that picture of your famous boots is missing here. How could you forgot to mention them here?

There are some of us who work “OVERTIME” too.,., How can you forget about the Table Tennis sessions at the end of the day.
