(You'll Never) Tie Me Up, (You'll Never) Tie Me Down by Ram Nagarajan on Sulekha
In my second job of a contract worker at Bank of America office at Chennai, I had to wear a tie. I wrote to my uncle
"ஆபீஸில் டை கட்டிக்கொள்கிறேன், கை கட்டி வேலையும் செய்கிறேன் (I was a drifter until then.) கால் கட்டுதான் பாக்கி."
He promptly replied in green ink (he was the Head Master of a school)
"கை கட்டு கால் கட்டு என்று என்ன சொல்கிறாய் என்று புரிகிறது. ஆனால் இப்போதைக்கு வாயைக் கட்டு; வயிற்றைக் கட்டு."
On software, society, entertainment and many other topics that just do not matter.
