We IT Guys!!

This is an excerpt from a conversation between 2 guys working in a big IT MNC.

Time 1930 hrs on a weekday, the office is almost 90% empty!

IT Guy 1 : Hows life ?

IT Guy 2: Going on.. You tell me?

IT Guy 1 : Still in office ?

IT Guy 2: Yeah, almost starting back.

IT Guy 1: So Where do you stay ?

IT Guy 2: Close by .. Actually next signal!

IT Guy 1: Wow Thats gr8!.. So how do you come to office ? Do you walk daily to office, your place is surely walkable distance from here

IT Guy 2: Sheeesh!!! .. I am not CHEAP!! .. I have a bike, I drive to office daily and once in a while I come by car!



If this is how 'Well Educated' people in big MNCs react to all these 'Save Petrol, Cycle/Walk to office' calls, .. I wont be surprised if others hardly care to these calls!

Irony: IT Guy 2 was talking to a guy, who takes these calls very very seriously and even cycled 38 kms once every week in the last two weeks!!


GOD SAVE INDIA!!

@ Shiva,

I think you got it wrong somewhere in the mid.
It was IT Guy 1 who cycled :-D

Let not the laziness of the IT Guy-2 spoil the enthusiasm and spirit of energy savings of IT Guy-1.

I'm sure better sense will prevail on the IT Guy-2.
