We the workoholics!!

We the GenX want to make it BIG! Extremely ambitious! Want more in less time! So we end up working 12 to 14 hours a day! And we dont stop working! Yup we dont! Its actually funny when you hear people using professional lingo without actually realising what are they doing! Like this workoholic guy (typical HR bloke) who met my friend for a wedding alliance!

Workoholic: So.. where do you see yourself 5 years from now?

Duh.. what is she supposed to answer! mopping after a 3 year old!

Workoholic: What are your strenghts?

I can test it right away! Here, let me take my best shot at you!

Workoholic: I think marriage is all about team work!

God! Dude hope it is remains a two member team.. and stagnant growth!!!

Workoholic: Ok! Lets do some situation analysis! What would you do in a situation where you have an issue with my mother and cannot sort out the situation with her?

I would rather punch you! Gosh! situation analysis and all!

Workoholic: I really like how our conversation is going, i would like to speak to you a couple of more times to see how it goes! Like probationary period!

Da de da... probation period!!! i quit without notice!

Workoholic: So Miss. P, it was nice meeting you and we will let you know about today!

I will let you know right here! Go jump for all i care!

Now this is really a situation with a HR guy! The SW geeks are the worst! Think they only understand code language! Simple and straight language is completely lost on them! Oh god! please save us from all the weirdos in the world!
