technology fail

Technological advances have been absolutely amazing and I hate to say this, but I definitely feel lost and awkward without my phone. But at the same time, it has been infringing on my freedom and personal boundaries.

A Good Example: What’sapp.

There have been times when I needed to give out my mobile number for work-related issues. And suddenly, clients and students and all sorts of people start whatsapp-ing me. It never really bothered me until one day, I somehow clicked into my profile. Oh dear. I had totally forgotten that I’d put up this stupid photo as my profile pic -


Oh dear. It was a joke and now even my banker knows I’m an arrogant prick. Yea, and it’s also weird looking at the whatsapp names/profiles/statuses of people who have a professional relationship with you. Anyways, so this parent was whatsapp-ing me about his kid who’s my student and… let’s just say I’m slightly embarrassed in the least.

Like Charlie Brown would say, “Good grief!”
