Working of Govt. offices is really pathetic at all the times and being a lawyer I have to bear with it.
As usual today also i am stucked at the desk of a clerk in the court who promised me ( i have to term his words as promise coz they came out of his mouth with assurance) that he will be back to his workplace in 5 mins. and now i am sitting here since the moment when the big hand of the sarkari clock was at 12, it has traveled from the digit 12 to 6 and i find no trace of this idiot clerk.
I am quite tense as i need to expedite this suit (sorry for the legal words i meant to say the case ) coz my boss has promised me a conditional leave stating that you get this case admitted before the court and i will grant you a leave for 5 days.
so here i am sitting idle with this expected 5 mins and not required free time and observing a group of female clerks nearby who have already started enjoying their lunch break which supposedly starts at 2 pm. and before i start envying them here comes the head clerk;my wait is over and his five mins too :). i checked the sarkari ghadi once again ( the big hand was on 8 by now) and it was waiving a goodbye to me. I handed over the papers to the clerk and headed towards my office.
