Me @Swiping

Tic…tic…tic…
I wonder how I feel every morning that my clock has no mercy on me (Sunday has been excluded!!). It runs faster and faster as it has no other fun except troubling me!

Our normal swipe time is 8:30 AM, of course with an addition of five minutes “grace time”. The phrase “Grace Time” has already made its mark on most of the employees. I feel it as a wonderful gift whenever I miss to swipe before 8:30. I go hand in hand with the grace time mostly :)..:) For the first time I had swiped after 8:30 (8:30:12 seconds) was on January 1st, 2009. Since then it has been unstoppable. May be, now I believe what people say “if it happens on first day of a year, it happens throughout!!” funny though.

I used to rush towards the swipe machine in the last possible minutes; I swipe my card but don’t want to move away from it until I check the time in it, though the same time appears in my mobile. Once I swipe in time, for few seconds I feel like I have won the day!!

I feel lucky, I work under the same umbrella TATA, but with a different sibling TCS, we have things flexible, just one swipe in/out per day @ anytime, just complete ur work and get off.
