Doors Wide Open

When the research lady booted her newly formatted system, she discovered that MS Office suite was replaced by Open Office . It didn't take long for for the discomfort with the new software to surface, "I don't like this weird Open Office thing."
I replied, "Exactly my point! We must have proper doors with locks!"

My Boss is banned from using the phrase "I take back my word."
Well, he's already done that and given us Open Office!

"We have to get that vendor to install the MS Door man!"
Hearing that made me stop in my tracks, and I enquired, "Is that a Microsoft spoof of Open Office?"

Architecture in Ahmedabad

Any architect who's done his homework would get this one. And my colleague having heard the word so many times finally asked aloud "What does Sangath actually mean?" While others gave explanations about "the company you keep", I phrased the sentence "Poore Amdabaad mein Sangath ka asar hai!"
Amidst facepalms, my boss, trying to bring sense back to the conversation, elaborated on how the establishment was an open office, and that anyone could walk in and feel inspired. Being the lost cause that I am, I replied "Well, they gotta have Open Office. With all the systems running Mac, how can they use MS Office?"
