The test started at sharp 10 am.
Some 10 - 12 mins later a boy arrived. Senior supervisor shouted at him, " you know its test today and what you think I can tolerate this coming 15 minutes late?"
The boy grinned, yes mam.
"What yes, you cannot give this test now , get out and wait , I should say you are 45 minutes early for your next test."
"But mam! I am here for supervision!".
In the summer of 2013, we all had completed our graduation. Some of us were studying for post graduation, few of us where busy with our job whereas suraj had become an assistant professor in an engineering college, same college where he had studied.
"I am scared as shit, in my whole life I have never performed a single experiment and now I am going to teach !" That was what Suraj said when I had called to congratulate him for getting a job as professor.
He was to teach computer students, whereas he was a biomedical engineer.
Fortunately or unfortunately one of my friend sameer was his student , so I was updated with the gags that happened with Suraj. But the image of suraj as a professor was quite good.
Suraj had a habbit of never being on time for class. For 9 am college he would leave his house at 8.50.
We thought he may change after becoming a professor and he will have some responsibilities.
But with great responsibilities comes great power and with great power comes great difficulty in factorising polynomials.
He had purchased some brand new formals so that when he enters the college he wont be mistaken as a 1st year student.
Sameer once told me that they were having their mid terms and suraj was supposed to be their supervisor along with a senior supervisor.
The test started at sharp 10 am.
Some 10 - 12 mins later a boy arrived. Senior supervisor shouted at him, " you know its test today and what you think I can tolerate this coming 15 minutes late?"
The boy grinned, yes mam.
"What yes, you cannot give this test now , get out and wait , I should say you are 45 minutes early for your next test."
"But mam.....
.......I am here for supervision!".
The entire class burst out laughing. ....
Suraj does become a bit philosophical after a couple of drinks.
"I am smart when I am drunk"
"I teach in such a manner that the students dont lose their interest. I maintain a proper record of student's grades." These words came from a person who was an expert in manipulating his internal grades.
There have been instances where students have turned up drunk or for their vivas or lectures. But no one expects a professor in such conditions.
If sir suraj would have turned up that way his students would have surely enjoyed a lecture on love , betrayal , philosophy , life science, politics, nanotechnology instead of microprocessors.
Probably he would crack jokes like:
Why did binary numbers blush?
- because of 2's COMPLIMENT.
What is the favourite love song of a computer programmer?
- meri ASCII tumhi ho...BUS tumhi ho..
