LIFT ME--just for people from Bhavani

Its a competition out there!!! I found something very interesting these days. Its common to every UST employee and every one has to be in it at least once ................... Every day.

You don’t have to give your brain so much of thought I am talking about the "lift". There are so many interesting things about this metallic room. It starts of daily morning when a huge crowd gathers in front of it….waiting for it to be merciful, amongst the rush of the eventful hours most of the time it is full. The dejected face of the client maybe an inspiration for this metallic being to rush to the top floor The first thing that can be noticed is that people have responded well to this phenomenon in a clever way as human’s always do. Even if their target is the top floor they rush into the lift even when it’s going down, I myself do this…Its how you batter the competitive world and make sure of your own "little" space. The face of a person who waits at the -1 floor is a sight to watch. He looks totally confused as to where this populace belongs to, when none budges from their place and a clever man standing next to the controls shuts the door quickly. Once inside the lift many have to come face to face with their greatest foe and the only solution is to flash a smile that is never meant. A stylish mobile phone in the lift is never in a silent mode. The proud owner surely flashes it out of his pocket and holds it in a manner that every one can see. His face glows with pride and accomplishment. An average mobile is usually fidgeted in the fingers or hidden behind a shawl or never attended to. People get into the lift with different wishes though their target is the same. For some it will be a hungry stomach that’s making them rush to food. For others an angry PM might have already called him twice when he was away with his friends. For others it will be a girlfriend who has been waiting anxiously. The females in the lift take their stand as if they are in a private bus. The rear portion of the lift is reserved for them and a helpless man trying to get a foot there is acknowledged with a stare. A Good Samaritan who pulls in more people is surely getting the hatred of all in the lift. I have always wondered what would be the feeling of a person when he is the only one left out of the lift while the luckier one’s get their space in it. I have observed them…sometimes it’s a blank grin. Others just turn of their faces…And rarely trying to get over a strange feeling he/she just utter something to the luckier friends who are inside. The strange phenomenon that occurs sometimes in the lift is the black out….

Once the door closes its totally dark and only whispers and the floor indicator can be sensed Anyway this thing goes up and down carrying with it humans and a lot of human emotions…Next time when you are in just gaze around for all this….You will like it. For it’s a place where there is a mix-up of so many human’s in such a small consign
