Interpreter of Mentalities

I guess sitting in front of either a lappy or a PC for about 14 hours a day, classified me under the “NOT SO NORMAL” category of human beings. If you are living in a so tagged Developing Country and working for Information Technology, you’d relate it well. We try to get deep into another person’s life. If it concerns Us, we become the interpreter of mentalities, why not? that’s the way people think nowdays. Now don’t tell me you didn’t know that. Ummm…. let me describe through a series of examples.

People Say: Do you own a ****Bank Credit Card?
We Interpret: What’s your status without it anyway?
[It's funny we feel good when we are in debt, how can someone own a credit card, it's like the bank owns him through a plastic card]

People Say: Where did you say you work?
We Interpret: Are you still in that same old company?
[You can't be happy with your job, that is such a lame excuse now a days]

People Say: Can you deliver the work on time?
We Interpret: I need the work in time, else….
[Say Yes and get the same pain as you get, if you say a No]

People Say: How is your girl friend?
We Interpret: Are you both still together?
[What's Love got to do in a relationship]

People Say: Sir, you have been selected for a free offer…
We Interpret: I’m going to sell you the product by my sweet, stupid conversation
[Mobile companies rule the way, then comes insurance, mutual funds and trading companies]

People Say: Hope you are enjoying the party.
We Interpret: If you are done, can you please go home?
[We need to party, we live to party]

People Say: Hey! Happy birthday
We Interpret: It’s time, please show us the food
[Birthdays are really one step closer to death]

People Say: Wow! who did this? You??
We Interpret: It’s unbelievable you can actually do something
["I" is always the smarter one between "I", "YOU", "HE", "SHE" and "THEY"]

and now –

You Think: Did you write this piece?
I Interpret: Where did you copy it from?
[We are all self certified in CTRL+C, CTRL+V]
