disconnection, reconnection and one firing

This week has been one of the most absurd week that I ever witnessed in my entire career. It all started inconspicuously enough. I had to finish the reconnection related stuff. I had done some changes for handling duplicate login issue which was now clashing with reconnection related changes. On Monday, I was 1/2 an hour late and I was summoned by boss. I later found that boss had reached office at 9:30 and was going thru all the entry records. Amit had walked in at 10 and put in a time of 9:45, which was caught and the perpetrator publicly questioned. On Tuesday, Amit walked in the morning and walked out in another hour or so. Why, you would learn in a little while. On Tuesday, boss walked in at 2 PM to check on who had got late after lunch. I had made it on time :-) But there was no work post lunch. Every one had to lend hands to dismantle and rearrange things. At 5 PM, I was called in for a meeting. I learnt then that Amit has been fired, not because he was incompetent but because he had referred boss as "upparwala" and that he had refused to work unless his salary was paid, which was really strange because the boss had promised to pay salary by 3rd of month. Then I heard a long list of transgressions on how Amit would come late every day, how he has taken a leave of 54 days in 5 months, how he would take leave w/o informing everyone. Basically a nightmare for the manager, who had turned a loose cannon and every one had suffered and how. Anyways, on Wed, my changes were still not working and Uttkarsha told me that it was her last day. Just like that, no inkling about that. Anyways, around lunch hour, someone started howling and there was complete bedlam in the office, with everyone running out the backdoor only to be kicked inside by boss who was handling things over there. What was happening? The case turned out to be a rude answer by Jayesh to Radha's question who got so terrified by Jayesh's threat of escalating things that she started crying and howling. Well, what did I do? I calmly walked out of office and went home for lunch :-0 By the time I returned, normalcy had returned. At 4 PM same day, I got out of office to take a break. Vivek came outside and coolly informed me that he has been given a notice of 15 days to prove himself or to pack things out. I chose not to react at all. On getting no reaction, Vivek got infuriated and informed that in 2-3 months, I will become the target to be fired on first chance. I again chose not to react at all. By the time my break was over, I was calm and composed and I had left a very disgruntled and disoriented Vivek behind. By the time it was 7 PM, I had found the bug and solved it. Thursday is St Francis day so a public holiday in Goa. I took my family to Panjim market and then to Caranzalem Park.
And so there are still 2 days left in the week. Let us see if there would be some more strange events unfolding , some more storms brewing, some more lunacy lighting up things....
