I had bid adieu to stage before entering my post graduation and I had no enthusiasm to participate / initiate any skit, neither did I think any one from the team would be interested.
That evening my team started to plan for the skit - theme, script, actors. Wasn't keen on joining it, but joined. Well!! I don't regret joining the skit preparation; it was whole lot of fun. We were mimicking out Performance Appraisal Process. Coming up with the script and casting people onto the roles, turned out to be hilarious. I got cast too as a project manager. The entire script came up on the “White Board”. Now who will write it down? We are software engineers, we do SMART work not HARD work. So we took photos of the board with our mobiles.
Few days were left to practice, projects were on and there were many deadlines to meet. I didn't think this skit would even take off.
But, it is a strange world, you see.

wow, exploring new heights of laziness or tech breakthroughs? ;)

I could sense the excitement in your voice when you told me about the skit :)... I'm sure you would have had lot more fun than you have actually written here... you should have probably recorded what you told me and then just uploaded the file :))... you know, like you took the picture of the board :)) and THAT would have been the heights of laziness ;)
