I was feeling lazy the other day and was just channel surfing. At some point I developed ache on my fingers and stopped surfing at a particular channel. It appears that I had accidentally stumbled on to the latest sensation to hit our screens. Yes. Your guess is right. It was a show called Sachin ka Dhaba or something like that. I think there was an uproar in the Parliament about this show… About MPs wanting this to be telecast inside the Parliament house or something.
In the show, there was this guy in a dark business suit with an unbuttoned shirt inside asking some questions to this nervous looking other guy wearing a silk red color necktie. This nervous looking guy was some practice head or something in a leading IT company called Petro Consultancy Infosystems Public Unlimited. There was a pyramid kind of thing in the back ground with lots of money written on it. Lots of sound effects were there for each pause by the contestant and lots of lights, as if like a pop concert. Lots of tense looking faces in the audience, as though they are in the hot seat.
Now on to the show...
(Note: All Q's are from the guy in the suit and all A's from the nervous looking guy.)
Q : Do you love working for your company?
A : (Thinks hard...) Yes... Well..Er... No. I don’t think so. Their pay sucks.
(The polygraph machine confirms this answer to be correct).
Q : Do you like your job?
A: (Whew.. that’s easy) Yes. You see, I get to fly across the world, meeting rich clients and sell our great software services and selling out myself in the process. Yeah. Its great work and I loooove my job.
(The polygraph machine confirms this answer to be correct).

(Some questions later)
.
Q: What do you think of your current client?
A: (Oh.. God.. This is not going as I expected) Well, um.. I think they are the best in terms of knowledge and know very clearly what they want.. and…. (trails off...)
Q: Lets see what the polygraph says about this.
A: (Screams..) Wait!! Wait!! I am not through with this yet.. I think they are lousy and are idiots to the core and who is only interested in going home at 4.30 in the evening, so that they can take care of their dogs and go to night parties, while we end up slogging thro the whole night. Plus, they are loaded with cash, which is the only thing our company is interested in.
(The polygraph machine confirms this answer to be correct).

Q: Have you ever included any personal expense as official expense and made your client pay for it?
A: (Oh.. God. I am in deep Sh**. Why are you doing this to me???) Well.. Yes.. Sort of.. you see..there were these times that we went to Hooters and the expense on booze ran up a bit too high and... (again trails off…)
Q: Lets see what the..
A: (Interrupts..) No no.. Wait.. I am not through yet.. and.. there were these other times when we had to include taxi charges on visits made to the strip clubs and casinos over the weekend and….(pauses)
Q: And??
A: and…well and this other occasion where we bought some electronics and chocolates for people back home and soaps for the missus and kind of mistakenly included them with the rest of the bills when we submitted them to the client .. and...well.. that’s it I guess…(mops his brows).
Q: Lets see what the polygraph had to say on this…
(There were expectations all around and a great deal of music.
The polygraph machine confirms this answer to be correct.)
Q: Congratulations!!! You have answered all the questions correctly. You have won 10 million as prize money. Surely you must be happy.. Tell our viewers what you plan to do with this load of money.
A: Well... You see I did not expect you to ask such questions. I was hoping that you would ask easy questions like whether I had any extra marital relationships, whether I cheated on my wife..and whether I had been a peeping tom in my college days and the works..Those kind of stuff that you usually ask. But you started asking questions that I was not expecting.. It was tough answering your questions. As for the prize money.. I guess I could use it to pay my mortgage payments and credit card bills, since I am going to be out of work soon..and use the remaining money for paying legal fees to defend all the lawsuits that is going to come out of this. Thank you any way.. I am soooo happy that I will now become a celebrity bankrupt. Thanks to you, i had my fifteen minutes of fame.
I switched off the TV and went to sleep.
