Mumbai Motormen & my extended weekend!!

This one sure takes the cake.. I slept pretty late on Sunday after watching a movie, pretty much knowing that i mite not get up in time to go to office.. As expected and no surprise, i got up at 8AM.. Felt totally tired and again slept.. This time i woke up at 11AM.. Awesome.. Now i def cant go to office.. I dint know wat reason to mail to my mentor.. After a while of thinking, i chucked the idea of even intimating him.. So i jus went about doing what i usually do on off-work days, watched movies and was with my book.. Only late in the evening i found that the mumbai motormen were on hunger strike and most of the western and central lines were not running.. I was happy that i did not get caught in this traffic..

All those who went to office complained of the traffic that they encountered in the local stations.. Even the buses were crowded.. A lucky off-day or bunk day to be precise for me.. I usually try not to sleep in the evenings, but i couldnt help getting tired after watching couple of back-to-back movies and hit the couch.. After a sound 3 hours nap, i got up to have dinner.. Thus ended my Day 1 of my extended weekend..

The next day, again i felt all the exhaustion when i woke up in the morning and something told me not to go to office.. Luckily the motormen strike was continuing for the second day and all traffic was screwed everywhere because of this.. Another off-day and i pretty much wound up doing the same thing that day.. I dint even bother to write to my mentor.. Everyone of my mates bunked office that day and the reason was staring in everyone's faces.. Wow.. An amazing 4-day weekend.. It sure can get addictive.. The next day i had to go to office since the motormen had called off strike.. Here they didnt think of innocent victims like me who pretty much get killed doing nothing in office.. However the thought that i just had 3 more days to another weekend pepped me up and i was off to the same routine at office..
