“Oh God! Now why won’t you start!”, and she puffed.
With her palm on her forehead, she was waiting for HP QC (a
testing tool) to open.
Suddenly a ping appeared at the bottom of the screen.
It was her friend Siddartha.
“Did your QC start working? Mine has started. So if you
want, you can resume your work from my system”, the ping read.
“Yea ok”, saying so she locked her system and went to
Siddartha’s system to work.
“Now how do I fill these mandatory fields ?”, she was
confused for some fields in the tool.
“Let’s ping Vinay and ask for help”, he suggested.
“Okay”, she said and pinged Vinay using office’s
communicator.
So technically it was Siddartha who was pinging Vinay but in
real, it was Smita who was pinging him.
“Hey”, first line of the ping read.
“Hi”, Vinay replied.
“I need your help in filling the mandatory fields of the
defect. Can you come to my system for a minute”, read the second line of the
ping.
“Tell him that it’s you”, Siddartha said, just to avoid
confusion for Vinay.
“Why, by seeing ping from you he won’t come?”, she said
turning to Siddartha, “and by seing my name he will come huh?”, she joked and
turned to the screen back and wrote in the ping,”Smita here”.
And the following conversation made both of them laugh for
the next few minutes.
n
Siddartha :
“Hey”
n
Vinay :
“Hi”
n
Siddartha :
Can you come to my system for a minute”.
