I don’t generally get into embarrassing situations, I manage to make others embarrassed…
I was working in an IT firm in India. One of my female teammates and I had applied for corporate credit card, the credit card guy came to the main corporate building and called us there. It was a huge campus, on our way back the lady wanted to eat ice cream. Being an eternal gentleman, I got her ice cream, paper napkins, I held her bad for her, stood in attention while she was eating etc. etc.
Our department head happened to pass by and saw us. When we came back to our department, my manager came and said the head wanted to talk to me along with my manager. We went inside a cabin. The buddha khusat told me this wasn’t a park to stroll and eat ice cream with my GF, I tried explaining why we were outside, but budhau refused to listen…
After this incident, I personally went and told my manager EVERY TIME I left my workstation, including loo breaks. One fine day he said with folded hands “maaf kar de yaar mujhe, jo karna hai kar, mujhe mat bata, agli baar head kuch bolega main manage kar lunga”
Bhaisahab, yeh essay ho gaya!!!!
