And yet, our management thinks that most of us are interested in working less and getting paid more!!

(P.S.1 : Math is the American abbreviation while Maths is the British abbreviation of mathematics - can’t help being pedantic!

P.S.2 : This has to be my shortest post ever!!

P.S.3 : Tagging this as ‘Slice of Life’ is a cheap marketing gimmick!!!

P.S.4 : Watch the number of exclamation marks increasing with each PS !!!!)
