On Karmageddon: The Update
Karma and I still have a topsy turvy relationship. Here is the update:
I won a Tapal Green Tea raffle
BUT
One day the receptionist was not in and I had to place a call to Hunza so I called the front desk and some substitute man picked up so i asked him to put me through to the operator in the Hunza office. He put the call through and the operator picked up. Here is what happened next -
K: Salamalikum, mein K bol rahi hoon, Head office se, mujhe Bashiruddin ka email address chahiye
Op: Bashiruddin?
K: Ji. Bashiruddin.
Op: Yeh Bashiruddin kaun hai?
K: Aap Hunza office se bol rahe hain?
Op: Ji ji
K: Achaaaa. Bashiruddin HR dept. mein hote hain
Op: .....
K: Chalein aap un ke extension pe call mila dein
Op: Actually mujhe un ki extension pata nahin hai aur mein abhi busy hoon
K: ....Busy?
Op: Meeting mein hoon abhi
K: Meeting?!
Op: .....This is Ahad Khan, General Manager
After apologizing profusely I went downstairs and gave the substitute receptionist hell.
Then, I got a scholarship. A major scholarship. Which I really, really wanted. Probably the best thing to happen to me so far.
BUT
I opened the letter informing me I had gotten the scholarship in the car. I had just read the "congratulations, you have been selected..." bit when *BAM* a car smashed into my car for no apparent reason. Then the assholes ran off without even making false promises to pay for damages. There was Karma, looking over my shoulder, saying you may have gotten the scholarship but I'm still gonna getcha, one way or another, gonna getcha, getcha, GETCHA!
P.S. A spider bit me on my arm. When a spider bites Peter Parker, he becomes Spider Man and proceeds to get with Hot Chick. When a spider bites me, I proceed to get an ugly pustule which scares away any Remotely Hot Men. Damn Karma.
