the socialising expenditure

hi friends !

i thought i ll mail you on monday .....but during my very first day see what i have found out ....
unlike most of us my internship stripend has to bear a expenditure to socialise....see how

the technocentre is a big place ....10000 people !! and since its a techno centre almost all of them are engg. Now as i was explained ( and we know) that ladies generally dont form a part of TC. so the ratio being 1:10 ..;there r few 1000 ladies ...and as it seems all the bull fighting is done when people r relaxing a bit...as with a coffee or any other drink...
So bieng a french company...people r expected to take break from work to take a drink and socialise ...so if you dont drink ...you cant socialise ...ie... you cant have fun...,
more over I was also told that all the major discussion and feedback r excepted here at these small joint ...
so ...the socialising hrs ( yes hours!! ...one around and after lunch and the other around 3 hrs later) r a must to survive ....or be left out !!!
the expenditure comes round to be a euro per drink ( every thing in TC is subsidised )...that means a exp. of 2 euros a day...ie 10euros a week...and ( yes i know u r all good at maths !!) around 50 euros a month ...fewwwhhh !!!!

And i can tell you that i have socialised with a few guys ...and when we open on mon( france is on a holl this week..;the attendance here is 3%)...i'm ill have some adventures...
so ..;see you all on monday !

bye ...going home ...
