What do I do??

Normally when people have a day off from work, they might take this opportunity to maybe DO SOMETHING. For example, maybe do some shopping-although I couldn't do that as I have no money. Maybe meet up with friends and go for a drink-although I couldn't do that as I have no money nor do I have any friends. So what did I actually do today?? I wandered around in the rain. I thought about my life and ended up feeling a wide range of emotions. All negative emotions. Emotions such as-sad, bored, frustration etc.....

I got thinking about work. Or to be more specific, the people I work with. The people I HAVE to work with. The strange things that they sometimes say. Now far be it from me to name names-I am far too professional for that. But the following are just some things that have been said to me within the last 2 weeks by some of my work colleagues:- 

• "Mukesh, why don't you open your own curry house by the block of flats over there" (I don't even think that the overweight, sweaty person that said this was even saying it as a joke. They assumed it was what I actually wanted to do with my life) 
• "Do you always eat Indian food or do you sometimes eat normal food??" (Indian food is alien food apparantly)
• "Yo Mukesh, do you speak Asian??" (This would be like asking someone from Europe if they spoke European)
• "Do you celebrate Eid??" (In case you hadn't noticed after working with me for a year. I am INDIAN!!!)
• "Why aren't you fasting??"

So there you have it. These are just some recent examples of what I have to put up with in my life. All the things above were said by different people People assuming things when really they have no idea as to how stupid their questions/statements might be. Maybe take a moment to actually think about what you are saying would help matters. Thanks. I have work tomorrow. Great.
