off obsession -
in my college these are a regular verbal handouts to you-
the library will be 'off' for the rest of the day
the labs will be 'off' after 5 pm
the gymnasium is 'off' for the next 3 days
off is not just routine but an obsession , its not just fashion but passion out here -
on an average the library has 7 working days out of which 2 days a week(at weekends) its 'off' time after 1 pm and add to it 1 holiday on an avg per week and fully functional period of our library comes out to be 4/7 i.e. that is just 57% of the total time .
on fully functional days the library opens from 9 a.m. till 12 am with a 1 hour break i.e. 14 hours while on these 'off' s it works from 9 am to 1 pm only! yes that's pathetic but true 4 hours . so while it should have worked for 14*7=168 hours it works for 14*4 +3*4=68 hours / week that is exactly 68/168 , 40% utilization of our resources !
while 60% are wasted on account of the passion obsession whatever of the authorities to 'off ' things out .
and why wont they do it - its the easier ,happier ,less tardy , less work more 'off' thing for them .
and who are to suffer ....we students .
while in rooms there is limited scope to study because hoards of gentlemen who have taken an 'off ' from all activities in life come barging in every now and then.
and then there are exams n gre n gmat from which we cant take an 'off ' for which we hav to prepare so people
do not get turned 'off'
plz
be 'on ' your toes
make some noise!
