Mommy , That big bad guy in the other car cut me on the road to Infy (baw)(baw) !

Infosys is full of such cry-babies!
To prove this point i'll just narrate an incident that took place today morning.
Infy Pune has a new gate for vehicles to enter the campus - gate 4.
The ROAD to that gate is a long S turn of sorts and has a decent amount of gradient. So as a rule, people tend to drive slow on this road. But hey, every rule has an exception rt ;)
As it so happens, i am that exception in this case.
So today morning , on this road, there was a car in front of me.
The driver of the car was of the cautious kind and was taking it slowly(abt 15-20 kmph). The gate was a good 220-250 metres ahead.I looked at his speed and decided that it was possible to overtake him, though there was a turn ahead.
So I overtook him easily enough and reached the line of vehicles waiting fot the security check.Just another day at office for me was about to begin.
When, to my surprise I saw a car SCREECH to a stop about an inch to my left(I half expected the tires to strt smoking :P).Surprised I looked at it & saw that it was the car that i had overtaken.
Imagine my surprise, when this guy rolled down his window and started talking and gesticulating loudly to a guard nearby. All the while he was pointing at me. So I decided to investigate. I rolled down the far window and was just in time to catch him saying 'This is Infosys!'.
I thot he was new to Pune ;), and was about to reply in the affirmative, when he noticed that I had rolled down my window.
Then, and here probable u wont believe me, the driver started LECTUIRING me on driving. Man wat a sore loser. After hearing him rant for a good minute, I understood that he was pissed coz i had overtaken him. His point was that AS THE ROAD LED TO INFOSYS IT WAS INFOSYS PROPERTY AND THAT ALL INFY RULES APPLIED TO IT ! :O and that since I was an Infoscion, so by default was educated and i shud follow rules. So i guess as i am educated I am not allowed to overtake fellow drivers on the roads! and since u r readin this , it means u too are educated(as u hv access to and r reading this blog) and so u too cannot overtake people on the roads ! :P

Then he asked for my empid and started twisting in his seat, i thot he had a fit caused by his anger, he was quite red in the face by now :P.

Finally he somehow managed to notice my empid on my icard.
He said "ur empid is XXXXXX. Ok now c wat i can do."
This line left me in splits. It seems he is going to COMPLAIN about me 'cutting him' (his words , not mine) ! What a cry-baby. So now hes going to run to his mommy and say 'mommy that big bad guy in the other car cut me on the road to Infy! Spank him, scold him. (baw)(baw)(:'()' :P

This is wat i cud make out frm his rant - Accordin to him ALL ROADS leding to Infy are Infy property and all Infy rules must apply to them. So i guess the next time someone 'cuts him' on any rd, he will prove that as that rd leads to Infy and if tht guy is an Infoscion, then he too has to follow the rule and NOT cut him!

Well i am waiting eagerly to c wat he is going to do with my empid and exactly who he is going to complain to :D

If i get anything from him i am going to post it here ASAP. :D

Lets hope he reads this ;)

I hope someone tells him that the road LEADING to Infy is NOT Infy property and that Infy rules (thousands there may be, but none for this 'scenario' :P ) do not apply to thse roads.
