Skool\College Komedies - Part 1: Workaholic !!!!

It happened in the final year of college. We had CTS campus interview and surprisingly i got selected for interview. Before interview, they gave me a pink form to fill. It consists of lots of unheard words(at that time) like skill set, area of interest, aim, what will u do 5 years from now...etc.,

I was completely puzzled with those type of questions, even my mom didnt ask such questions. So i took help from a guy, saravana Kailash, he's a fruit and that means he knows all necessary things regarding education n stuffs. He was giving high fundoo english words to fill that form. finally, i read my form and i didnt understand 60% of it...actually the rest 40% words are like a, the, this, me...etc...

The interview panel consists of two people, one 40+ guy and other some 22+  gal,  from the moment i got in, i was so impressed with her. i shook hands with her and was answering all questions looking at her only(actually it was the guy who was asking all questions). Finally, she also donno how to react and she took my pink form and started reading....after 2 mins, she started smiling...and trying very hard to conceal her smile...

After few minutes, she asked...

She: So Srini, as per ur form,  u r hard working and good at team work ?
Me: (with biggest possible smile) yes...
She: also, u r WORK ALCOHOLIC ???
Me: (with much more smile and pride) yes, i'm WORK ALCOHOLIC  !!!!

After that both were laughing for few minutes and needless to say i was not selected !!!!

I came out. Then only i came to know that, it was not "Work Alcoholic" but "Workaholic".....!!!!!

ROTFL da... These moments are really really funny though they would've been the most embarrassing ones when we actually crossed them. :)

Btw, that 22+ girl was Maya from the HR department. I went to the same panel and I was more or less flirting with her ;) :D Will write about that sometime...
