Jannavi meets Super Tim

I have been really lazy; consequently I have not posted on the more than a dozen good books I have read since then. The longer the delay the harder it was to get back on the saddle. Finally I decided to break the logjam and write not about any book, but instead write something, anything.

Some of you may not know this, but my wife, Jannavi, has moved to another job and her first day was just last Monday. She spent early part of Monday at orientation and then met her boss. Although this man is a veteran of almost 2 decades (or maybe because of that) he seemed an extremely informal and relaxed person. He took her to her new office (BTW J has a office, she no longer works in a cube farm!!). Soon after that she jumped straight into her first team meeting. The meeting was already in progress and meeting coordinator was on the phone with someone, who happens to be her colleague working from home.

The coordinator was asking a question, "So Super Tim, What did you do about this so-on-so proposal?". Jannavi assumed that she did not hear the name correctly and waited for more. Her boss promptly chimed in with a question, "Super Tim, did you do XYZ?". Jannavi was really impressed at the informality of her team wondered what her new nickname would be. Dr. J was her first choice (Julius Erving for the basketball neophytes). The meeting came to an end before she could think of many more names. As she made her way back to her new office, she saw an nameplate with an Indian sounding name. On closer look the name was

Supratim Banerjee!!

She is yet to get her nick name!!

Disclaimer:
Supratim is my wife's collegue's first name but I changed the last name for reasons of privacy.

After reading the previous edition of this blog, I found some people did not get the joke. Supratim = Super Tim
