The Return of the Beedi

The Story So far: Krishna, Ruchika and Parate are waiting for Vidhu (not Godot, So Vidhu will actually turn up) at Rythym House.

We were standing like idiots exchanging banter when at last the black and yellow taxi (permitted only for managers of Work Level II and above) turned up.
Ruchika was the first to greet him obviously as we really didnt know him
"Hi Vidhu, this is krishna and this is Parate"
"Hi dude"
"So Vidhu, what are you and Ruchi (can i call you that atleast in my blog) planning to do"
"Well we are going to this really awesome pub called toto's garage.... And by the way its half-way across this bloody city"
"Great" says Parate , "Thats really close to where i live, lets go there Krishna"
"Ok whatever you guys say. I just want to go somewhere and grab a beer"
So we all got into a taxi and headed to Toto's Garage. The taxi also seemed to want to go there. At least judging by the noises it made it needed some garage or the
other and Toto's was on the way to Toto's. (It was a closed interval you see)
After a 45 minute journey enriched with stupid jokes, and oxides of sulphur and nitrogen, we finally made it to this so called cool place called Toto's. Only problem was the garage was full and no place to park our asses and get refuelled. So we opted for the wine shop variant and decided to drink standing up. Ruchika cited health reasons and went for a mocktail while the rest of us stuck to unleaded beer. There were a few trendy sports models there to check out but most of them didnt have PUC and were spewing out far too much nicotine for my catlytic converter to handle.

Hey Beedi, i laughed the first time at your garage puns, but that was only to be polite. Please go easy on these attempts at humor and just tell us what happened

So we continued sipping our beer ( I have only had a sip of beer ever. Ask the dumb pterodactyl. he'll vouch for me) , and talked about the usual stuff that boring frustrated MBA students talk about. The Alphabet War as I call it A vs B vs C vs the other 23.

I wonder what it would have been in Hellenic times.
"Are you going to the Grecian Academy for Really High Paying Jobs at Alpha , or are you going to Beta. "
"No spartacus, Alpha is too Academic."
"Of course Phaedrus, its an Academy"
"But surely final placements are the onyl thing that matters. It seems last year 50 guys from Alpha were asassinated on the first day of the senate"
...
I suppose you get the idea, if you dont why not move over to the dark ages

"Sir Gallahad, art thou going to The Knight School at Arlington, Birminham or Camelot"
"Sir Lancelot, i think i shall not be going to Camelot after all it is the oldest night school in the whole of Bloody England."
"True Galley but i heard last year at Arlington half the passing out batch last year got to join foreign armies, and in fact at the crusades Arlington people are the most sought after"

....
Yeah you get the picture dont you. If you dont, its the stupid Ahmedabad Vs Bangalore Vs Calcutta iim fight. But lets be politically savvy and say that everyone's a winner. The Alphabets are dead. Long live the Alphabet war.

After a while things got really boring so Ruchi and Vidhu decided to leave. Parate an I went to this really psued restraunt and had dineer. After which parate left. And i was once again alone with Krishna.
"So krishna hows the project"
"Man marketing sux. I dont ever want to have anything to do with it"
"So whats it going to be fin?"
"I dont know. I just want to make a lot of money quicky and then retire and enjoy it"
"Then you should go for an I-banking job."
"Ok.Waiter!!! WAITER"
"Yes Sir"
"One I-banking job please, with extra chocloate sauce"
"Sir we dont serve I-banking jobs here"
"Oh fuck beedi they dont serve i banking jobs here."
"Never mind ask him if he has any other fin or consult jobs. They're not as cool as i-banking but serve the purpose just the same"
"Ok waiter, get me a consult job please, without tomatoes if thats possible"
"Sir, we dont serve consult jobs here"
"Ok. Do you have any fin jobs atleast?"
"No Sir, wea are a low-cg, no extra currics, looser restraunt. We specialize in sad marketing and it jobs. Would you like one? Our chef's speciality is a really cool position 'Selling cleaning fluid in Chattisgarh'"

Oh my god beedi. You have gone over to the dark side.
