The Song of the Software Engineer

The dawn comes after a long night's rest,
Waiting for me are 32 bugs and feature requests.
It is a glorious morning, and the rest of the day surely follows
Lucky me, I'll spend it in a cubicle farm without windows.

I drag myself out of bed, getting ready for the day
Greeted by the pollution and the autos that bray.
The journey through the traffic is always such a drag,
Startled, I remember: "Damnit, I forgot the office badge"

I sneak in through the door behind a collegue with glee,
The day is just starting, but the boss has already spotted me.
Thundering, he asks me the status of bug 4572-GSA,
I have no idea, but still say "It'll be ready later today".

The whole day doesn't seem to end! In school, there was at least a bell
I survive the day, but soon it's time for the weekly conf call from hell.
I spend the meeting praying no work gets assigned to me,
Oh Crap! we don't even have a god for the software industry!

The day is finally over, I leave behind the "on-site" savage hoards
Getting back home, I still have a date with the traffic at silk board.
I hit the bed, trying to think of what the hell I'm doing
This is my life, full of ambition, purpose and meaning.

[Aditya Kulkarni]

Software Engineering is a boring, mindless job that will suck the living force out of your soul.

Why? Were you told otherwise? :)

[Aditya Kulkarni]

Haha! I was just kidding :) You took it seriously.

No, really, it's great! You can seriously make a difference to this world (and make a bucket of money along the way, which is not so bad either :)

I myself work at Google Research, and it's a lot of fun. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to discourage you.

I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun :)

The Rain

Hurray, here comes the rain,
Traffic jams and all the pain
Oh Rain, please come again,
And bring with you the overflowing drains.

Thundering clouds, bring all your darkness
Cut our Electricity, leave us TV-less.
Crashing down, no mercy you showed
Digging giant potholes in our roads.

But dear dark clouds, I wait for you every night,
Come quick, and come with all your might.
Thunder through the sky like a scar
Please come down and wash my car!

Shitty Sense
-Kushal Khandhar

A disowned piece of excreta caught my eye,
With great looks its career could fly,
It was lil scorched and brown with the sun,
Probably excreted after a good amount of dum.

Alone and lonely, so desolate it lay,
No competition to look better in the fray.
It lay like a king on the footpath’s throne,
Pav bhaji and idli it must have borne.

It belittled proud citizens strutting by,
Making them smell the smell with a sigh.
It looked prouder when a policeman passed by,
Who gave up hope of cleanliness ’n resigned, “Good bye!”

A couple then came along,
But the smell just added to their love song.
Ladies and gentlemen cursed on their way,
Cursing the shitter, “What a shitty day!”

Returning from tuitions that cost great fee,
Students and kids looked and said, “Chhi Chhi!”
Journalists and reporters photographed the little thing,
But no one thought of putting it in the bin.

We preach civic sense
But what can one do
In such a singular case,
When someone does boo-boo.

Amidst my philosophy,
Another lad came along,
A bucket in hand,
Singing a lovely bathroom song.

Standing next to that part,
He let out one big fart,
He then coolly sat down,
And added another piece of art!

A Tribute to the AutoRickshaw!

Look around, the roads seem strangely quite and peaceful
No noise and Pollution? Nothing running amok like a mad bull?
A flash of lightning, and it jumps out from the frying pan,
Here comes the AutoRickshaw, so watch out Super-Man!

You glide through the roads with poise and grace
Spewing poisonous smoke onto eveybody's face.
Millions of devotees call out to you every day
You will come only if the driver feels like going that way.

You feast on petrol, kerosene and maybe even Jet Fuel,
You could put Schumacher to shame in a racing duel!
You draw your pray in, promising to make the day sweeter,
Then cheat them out of their money, with the tampered meter!

Preaching through portraits of fables and holy messages,
Bad drawings of Rajnikanth and other Bollywood sages!
You fearlessly roam the city streets like a giant toad,
You truly deserve the title of THE KING OF THE ROAD!

One More from a software profeesional:
Main kabhi batlata nahi,
Par coding se darta hoon main Sir
Yun to main,dikhlata nahi
Par Bench par jana chahta hoon main Sir

Aapko sab hai pata,hai na Sir
Aapko sab hai pata, mere Sir
Issues mein yun na chhoro mujhe
Ghar laut kar bhi jaa na paun Sir

Bhejte kyun Onsite Mujhko
Yaad bhi aapko aa na paun Sir
Kya itna dumb hoon main Sir

Jab bhi kabhi Onsite mujhe
Dher saara kaam deta hai
Meri nazar Dhoondhe aapko
Sochu yunhi aap aakar work distribute karoge Sir

Unse main yeh kehta nahi
Par testing se pak jata hoon Sir
Chehre pe aane deta nahi
Company chhor kar bhaag jana chahta hoon Sir

Aaapko sab tou pata hai na Sir........
