Abstract

 ‘You sit on your laptop all day long, working all by yourself. How do you manage it? Don’t you get bored?’
 
‘No no. I talk to Eliot whenever he is in.’
 
‘I don’t see you talking much with others. You just come, do you work quietly all day….’.
 
A quiet confused stare.
 
‘…..You are by yourself all day long. You are such a…. loner. How do you pass your entire day here?’
 
‘Uh-huh'. Tick of head, accompanied by a shoulder shrug.
 
Wondering how to put up a loner face.
Changing the topic to work.
(smiling inwardly).

Nah. Not at all. Please gimme a break. It was more of a new team organisation issue.

Ok... I understand...he does not get a pass grade....:))

Do you guys worry about the "composition" of a team - you know... 2 whites, a black, 1 hispanic, 3 women, a chinese, 2 Indians - a southie and a northie, etc.....?

We do such calculations all the time.

Look at my reputation. Here I am asking a serious question and Rsku is accusing me of laying a lot of traps.

A beautiful, old, sad tamil song comes to my mind...but will defer.

"You sit on your laptop all day long, "

Really? You should consider a seat cushion instead - might be more comfortable.

He could have said that working with a laptop all day is the next best thing to working sitting on top of a lap (of a secretary).........:)

(ok..ok...my quota for the day is over already...)
