To Be in An Office

As everyone has a source of income in his life. Some may have private job, some in banks, institutes, organisations and so may other fields. There may be a certain type of env ironment in the office, certain type of colleagues and officers.
I am working in one of the office of the Ministry of Home Affairs as PA. A few months ago I have joined a new office. In this office, there is a room for PAs. When I went to sit in that room, I found that this room is not meant for me as anyone can come in this room, sit and talk like a free zone. As I am a calm and quite person, doing its own work and sitting in a corner, with a book in hands, collecting beautiful thoughts and writing some articles in spare time. But here, oh my God! I could not even think of doing work. How I woould sit the whole day here was really a big question.
After one week I came to know that someone who joins this PAs lobby have to give party which is called introductory party. After that he would be the member of this lobby. It seemed difficult to arrange lunch for such a big lobby. But rule is rule. Anyone who has come to sit here has to follow the rule. And the lunch was decided for the next day. It was declared, "Tomorrow, no one will bring lunch". Next day people were relishing the lunch. So the lunch was over.
Soon I became familiar with the environment. People's birthdays, anniversaries and wearing new dresses are being celebrated here. I found that these people were so cooperative and helpful that no one could face any kind of diffculty whether it is official or personal as it may be some technical work or somone's child's admission. Everyone come close to that person to help him. But one thing which is very common in this room is celebrating parties with Smosas, Pakoras and Patties. Anyone can raise his voice that from so many days there is no party. Who is going to order the Smosas. Then someone will happily open his purse and order for Smosas.
A major part of the day, we spent in the office. So environment in the office should be according to us as the things happening their leaves an indelible impression upon our mind. Time is running very fast and so we are. So the moments spent happily in the office will become memories for our retired life. After completion of sevice these memories will remin fresh in our heart. When we will recall it, we will sitting in that environment. So to be in an office and having good and healthy time with our colleagues is really memorable thing.

  1. Madam Kusum ji, Namaskar, I have read the blog TO BE IN THE OFFICE, This is fact that a major part of our life is spent in our office and envoirtment in the office should be according to us. but sometimes the atmosphere is just opposite and we remain in tension always. In that circumstances what should we do. The peope around us are not cooperating and comment us. We are sincere and doing our duties well. To be in the office is nice but in those circumstances when the things are in our favaour and as per interest. Some people think of leaving the job just for the reason that the atmosphere is not as per their likings. The times of office is good and healthy with our colleagues if we live happily and understand our problems and help each other. Then the period will be called a golden period of the life. Thanks of writing blogs . I hope you will understand what I want to say.
