Khallas!

Got a cryptic email from my boss a few days back. "Please see me in my office before you leave".

OK... I spent my entire shift trying to think of what she wanted to talk to me about. By the time my shift ended, I had narrowed it down to 3 possibilities.

1. I have messed up BIG time. Television channels have one widely held beleif : little incidents keep on happening in big channels. Bobby turns Booby, Virginia is called Vagina, entire wrong episodes go on air. Ergo... Bade bade channels main aise chotti chotti batten hoti rehti hain! If people were sacked for such mistakes, really there would be noone left! So whatever I did, it has to have been BIG.

2. I am been given an out of turn increment! Yes! That must be it! Forget recession and mass lay offs. There are new channels opening, which means people are being poached left right and centre. In a bid to keep me, undoubtably one of their sharpest and brightest, they are going to offer me a pay hike, desig change, and a car! May be they will offer me the company shares as well, but I think that wont be wise considering prices are falling. Maybe I will ask them for more cash instead. Hmmmm...

3. I am going to be offered a new show to work on. Oh no! New show = a whole lot of hard work! Not nice...Unless it is a youth oriented "funky" show, involving lots of travel and fun shoots, and lots of fun generally!
