Combustion & Obsession
Part 95
"If only you could train your body to quit responding... or train it ONLY respond to a Ph D's overtures? Maybe?" he quipped insultingly😡
A glimmer of absolute shock? sadness? hurt? pain? unknowingly appeared in her eyes... at being cornered like that... her most vulnerable, intimate... dark secret thrown out publicly in their fight😭
They had decided they would stop at nothing then?
Well... then so be it😭
II: AND THAT Mr Bhalla, would be deemed sexual harassment at the workplace (biting)😲😡
They stood staring at each other interminably... he would think about this moment later... and she would too... they both were angry, they were rabid fighters.. both prone to inflammatory speech...
R&B I DARE I you to follow through and initiate legal proceedings Ms Iyer (threat)😈
Knock on the door, Mrs Sagar brought in papers to sign, and lingered picking some up...
Baldev and Ranjan were outside in the plush hallway... the Gurgaon showroom GM and the Workshop GM were missing, so was Ashwini..
The duo completely unaware was going at each other with claws and spears...😲😭 of course they are not done...😭
II: Asserting male superiority to a gullible solutions provider must be Excelsior's USP😡 (incisive)
R&B: I suggest you get your facts straight before piling accusations of gender bias😡 (sheer rage)
He walked away to the window, hands in pockets, his ear buds still hung from his sunglasses... unruly and tangled like he was😡
II I proved irrefutably that we accomplished what we set out to do and u were clearly lost for answers..😈
Her arms were on her hips ready to punch him, she stood by the chairs... across from his oak desk
R&B: Asking a few hard questions as a deployment manager does not make you a star, it's pathetic what passes as talent in Corporate India these days😡
II: REALLY?How about one Professional certification like CPA and
TWO MASTERS ?😈
R&B :Sure, cynically hiring some academic and scholastic mind to lowball unsuspecting clients, THAT'LL DO IT..😈
II: FYI it takes a lot more to survive outside the absurd alternate reality universe you seem to live in, with your Carpathian (famous mountain range in Europe🤣) Mountain Backpackers Association.. (smirk and a twinkle)😉
R&B: You should try it sometime Ms Iyer😃...Maybe a few years of breathing the free air outside the confines of Corporate America will prepare you.. and it might actually be a good escape from the treacherous lair of the greedy sub par corporation you are employed in.😡
Walking over to where she stood LITERALLY talking down to her...
She took a step back to put some space in between...
II :As long as "family owned" conglomerates like yours get away with peddling the trope that "Oh! WE ARE THE EXPERTS", you WILL find yourselves foaming at the mouth about how awful the "other side" is.. case in point the multinationals like KMPG...,... you are in your own death grip actually.😡 (enraged her behind the ear loose locks coming free from her braid and dangling over her ears😳)
R&B : It is incomprehensible to you isnt it Ms Iyer?😡 To witness a family owned business be bigger than a multinational AND possess the acumen, and aptitude to manage successfully THE OLD FASHIONED WAY AND not lay off ONE PERSON AND turn profits 30 years in a row? must make your biz school faculty suicidal don't u think?😃 Shattering your preconceived notions about the proverbial "baniye ki dukaan"? 😡
II: Ermmm...Employing a bunch of low skilled and unskilled people to deliver "shiny new cars" isn't exactly a immaculate business model for emerging India😡
R&B: Better than voracious-for-profit multinational corporations that constantly downsize and willfully devalue skills and lower employee self esteem by sending work off shore for cheaper labor dont u agree ?😃 Ms Iyer I bet you must feel tremendously secure in YOUR job.😃
II: I am treated with respect, AND not discriminated against, AND rewarded fairly,😭😃
R&B: AND Corp America's gender pay gap of 78 cents to the dollar is purely an imagination of delusional Economists😈
II: At least I don't run the risk of being handed the pink slip if the Munshiji's uneducated son hates my work attire😡
R&B: You are somehow, legitimizing your envy of my position as a owner/Director and seem to be directing all your anger at my perceived lack of accomplishment, in order to make a quick buck for KMPG👏
II: Startling as it might be Mr Bhalla but despite working for a soulless multinational... I am actually displaying a trait you might be more familiar with... its the trait often seen in "baniye ki dukaans"... its called EMPLOYEE LOYALTY👏
Ranjan turned to Baldev and said in a shocked tone "These two seem like they are obsessed (about fighting?) with each other😲
She let herself out before he could come up with a rejoinder, kinda like having the last word? maybe?
Mrs Sagar was missing... may be she took the papers he signed and went off to deliver them in another deptt?
II walked back to the conf room with face as red as her ruby nose ring... to retrieve her laptop and things
