Vijay ne ulloo ban gaya!!!
You know what time it is when I am typing this post??? Its 03:20am. Wondering what the hell I am doing at this time?? The answer is - Am at office - Working!!!!!
Yeah!! I am working in night shift for the past 25 days as my project is in a crisis situation.
It all started one fine day – the 21st March. I had told Vasanth that I would call him that night. Then came the storm. My TL came to my seat and told about the project situation and that my help is needed during the night hours. I was asked to work for another team for some time until our project is back in shape. I went home that day by 7pm and took an hour rest. With a hard feeling for not being able to call Vasanth, I came back to office by 9o’clock and from then on it is………………… Vijay on night shift!!!!!
I worked from 21st March to 29th March after which I went to Chennai for 3 days.. A terribly short visit. I came back to Pune on Sunday, the 2nd April by 7pm and then I was in the office by 9pm.
I am a guy who would say the glass is half-full rather than saying half-empty!! So, I took this in a positive way and was thinking – ‘Wah!!! What a life!!! Morning- had breakfast and great, special lunch in the afternoon made especially for me by my dear mom in Chennai. Had evening snacks in the flight. Then had dinner in Pune and working in the night!! Wow!! This life is great!!
From then on, I had been working continuously for 13 days – all during the night. I used to come to office by around 8pm. Then I would get to know the status of work during the daytime from my colleague-friend. Will go and have my dinner and then start my work by around 10. The work goes on till 8 in the morning. And some minor requirements allow me to go out of the office only by around 9:30.

I celebrated my b’day in the office. There were phone calls pouring in when the clock struck twelve. But work was also pouring in at the same time. But I shld mention, that my frends here made that day a great one for me that evening.
After a long 13 days non-stop work, I finally asked and got a day’s off yesterday. My roomies welcomed me back for the night-sleep at home!! After almost 25 days I had a great sleep (in the night) at my home.
Working in night shift is not so difficult for me. The only thing that is difficult is the inability to sleep during the daytime. I sleep hardly for four to four and half hours a day. I wake up by around 3pm, cook for myself, eat, watch TV for a while and then start again to office.
I came to office today after a day’s off yesterday and now I don’t know how long this will go before I can get a day’s off again!!
