Bad day? Nay...

Oh scrap the fluff, dump it in trash
Today its all smiles and I wonder why the office is so glum
Yes of course it’s the whole jazz about the increment filth, where the people go fight and I fail to understand what’s the forsaken deal all about?
Does this increment decide your worth? Or does it push you to work better? Sniff better stories or please the boss a lil more maybe?
No, I do not understand this and I’m ignorant too, but today when I see almost everyone around me disgruntled to no end, a thought just crossed my mind- is that am not competitive enough, for, am not a part of this money-money bandwagon?
Yes, for people running their families this increment means a lot. For people like me, who write for pleasure and follow my pace, it means nothing but some random numbers separated by a single comma.
Sigh! Someday when I will be the woman of the house, I too shall sulk over this measly deal and succumb to the sea of gloomy faces. Though I earnestly hope not.

For now, it still Features for me, meeting new people and hearing their stories.
It’s a beautiful little world where my reward is a well done story.
Till I feel the pinch of the ‘other side’ I shall savour my bliss of staying out of the rut of ‘the rat race.’

And yes its Friday, should still be so glum?
