Since I was sitting at home and doing nothing, my dad asked me to accompany him to work everyday. He always wanted me to join the business—after all had set it up himself and who doesn’t want their kids to join their business?

I felt a little awkward going to his office as I had been going there since I was 10 years old, initially to play on the computer and later on just as a visitor. Everyone called me by my first name and I was generally treated as a baby there. So when dad told me that I had to be the “boss”, the butterflies in my stomach suddenly transformed into birds!!

Well, having some work experience behind me and a somewhat idea of how the corporate world worked, I walked into “my office”. I got a warm welcome, though a few eyebrows were raised here and there. I was feeling soooo weird...the last time I walked in, ppl had ruffled my hair and offered me chocolates and now those very ppl were wishing me good morning!!!! It was a very strange experience; I felt important, grown up and at the same time very out of place too for some reason I didn’t know!

Its been abt a month now and tho I haven’t really began doing anything major, I have kinda understood the way things work around here. Well, having daddy dear around is such a boon...whenever I’m stuck with anything, he’s there to bail me out!!!

My dad’s gone out of station and I thought I’d bunk while he’s away. But he called me up in the morning and made sure I went to work L So here I am, sitting at work and blogging away to glory! Wish dad never finds out!!!
