No no, I haven't become footloose and fancy free ... no time to pursue such activities, this is a literal translation. I am going to paint the office red.
Yesterday while doing my usual hello's to everybody, I bumped into the architect (our office is still being constructed) and since I've always been fascinated with colours and painting (I once painted a friends wall with rollers... it was too much fun and I wanted to recreate it again), I asked Rajesh (the architect) to allow me to paint one of the walls... he was not convinced. I cajoled him saying that he will not have to pay daily workers wages to me... that I will do it for free... still I was not successful... not because Rajesh didn’t want me to paint any wall... but there are no walls in our office!
Yes, it is hard to believe... but there are no walls in our office (walls as in concrete wall... there are a lot of glass walls and wooden walls which cannot be painted).
However, being ever resourceful (jugadu) Indians, Chandramohan (big boss) came up with the idea that we can paint one column and one beam on the mezzanine floor which can be used as a graphitti wall by all the employees... so I am gonna paint the office RED... yaaaaa!
BTW, everybody is invited ;)
