Truly laughter sparks up our lives. It is believed that when we laugh and when we are in joyful state all our chakras get aligned and are in perfect harmony. I do believe in that; hence it is important to keep being happy and find those moments where you can laugh out loud and to the heart's content.
This challenge takes me back in time to my first job, it was the best job I had and I had some best days of my life in that job. It was not a big Corporate, a small set up, a KPO unit it was and we used to manage back-office operations for Swiss Airlines. Our MD was hiring majorly fresh graduates, so we were all of same age almost and all in the prime youth years. I used to look forward to going to work because it was so much fun. Every day was laughter and joy.
There are some times, which I remember, and when I think of them, I feel that kind of environment I would never see anywhere in any job. There were some cranky people and we used to do all funny things. We used to work in shifts and night shifts were total fun because no seniors would be around and we would have a gala time, especially when work load was less.
In those days I was very scared of ghost stories and my colleagues knew about it. On one of the night shifts, we had less work, we switched off the lights and we were all resting. Suddenly I see a white figure jumping and coming towards me. I was so scared, it was midnight, I got up on my seat and started screaming on top of my voice, everyone around also got scared for a moment, but then everyone started laughing out loud, it was a prank made on me. One of the boys had covered himself with a white bedsheet and played the prank on me, after that I too had a hearty laugh. For that moment my heart was out, but then later I could not stop laughing, and today also when I remember that incident it brings a smile on my face. After that we would do that to all new comers, it was like ragging....hehehe.....and I was also part of it.
On those nice shifts we used to have some real fun. Once I remember we made a smoothie out of a shaving cream and we offered one guy to eat it as a whipped cream and he even had it, and then there was all the roar. Oh my god, I am going into flash back, there were many such incidents and I am recollecting them. It was just crazy times we spent. Pranks was part of our work almost all the time.
Not that now I have less fun, but those days when you are so young and looking forward to life, all of this makes you feel so much full of life. Sadly, after the Swiss Air crash our company started going down and then it got merged with its parent company, then things changed and work environment changed drastically, there were cameras in office and too much of monitoring came into effect and it was never the same again. Our team is still connected on whatsapp group and today also when we think of those days, we feel they were the best days of our lives and job and there would be no other job like that one. Almost for all of us it was our first job so there was so much excitement. While work was priority, fun was also and all our bosses were super cool. We were a young and energetic team and we all believed in work hard and party harder formula, so work was also fun for us. My laughing style is laugh out loud and my friends normally make fun of that, the way I laugh, and I tell them, that my laugh makes you laugh, that is more than enough for me :-)
People think I am a very serious type of a person, but it is not like that. I am quite a prankster and when with friends one gets to see my true colors....hehehe. Truly laughter is the best medicine, just thinking of these times also makes me feel so happy right now. Especially when you laugh with your friends, they become the best memories of life.
