A couple of weekends back we had scheduled our night to see millions of fireflies / light bugs that generate in the forest of Bhimashankar every year. It is said that they multiply themselves from thousands to millions just in the initial few days of monsoon. As monsoon had arrived in Bhimashankar on the 3rd of June this year, we went there on the 8th of June. Very few people like their Saturday night to be like this one, but from our point of view, seeing the forest blinking in the night naturally is way more awesome than any other way to spend the weekend with.
We reached Bhorgiri [a small sleepy little village on the border of Bhimashankar] at 7 PM. As it was not pitch dark yet, we decided to have some food. Surprisingly, the villagers were extremely poor — no vegetables at home, no electricity, no satellite TV, etc. One of the huts was slightly illuminated with faces having question mark seeing us with big cameras, lenses, etc. When asked for food, they offered us to have dinner with them. It was a very simple food [and extremely spicy], but our purpose was served. We thanked them, and paid some money.
Our step inside the forest to witness the much awaited scene of millions of fireflies lighting up the entire forest started with a surprise — some fireflies landed on us and on our car. That gave us an opportunity to observe them closely lighting up and dimming down. It was, in true meaning, mesmerizing! And who knew this was nothing in comparison to what we were going to see further!
It was pitch black, and the whole forest was blinking with the switching biological lights of the fireflies in uncountable number. My mind said, "this is the moment of the trip, literally". We were so lost looking at the great phenomenon that we did not realize the time were there until we finally felt that we 2 were all alone in the forest. We decided to paint the last few million pixels by a few million fireflies before driving home back.

After 2 years of selfless service, I realized that I had not been promoted, no salary increment, no commendation.
So I decided to walk up to my HR Manager. The manager looked at me, smiled and asked me to sit down saying: "My friend you have not worked here for even a single day."
I was shocked to hear this !!!, but the manager went on to explain, and here's the conversation that took place.
Manager: How many days are there in a year?
Me: 365 days and sometimes 366.
Manager: How many hours make up a day?
Me: 24 Hours.
Manager: How long do u work in a day?
Me: 10am to 6pm
(i.e 8 hours a day.)
Manager: So, what fraction of the day do u work in hours?
Me: 8/24
i.e 1/3 (one third).
Manager: This is nice of u! what is 1/3rd of 366 days?
Me: 122
(1/3 x 366=122 days)
Manager: Do u come to work on weekends?
Me: No sir.
Manager: How many days are there in a year that are weekends?
Me: 52 Saturdays and 52 Sundays equals to 104 days.
Manager: Thanks for that. If u remove 104 days from 122 days. how many days
do u now have?
Me: 18 days.
Manager: I do give u 2 weeks sick leave every year. Now remove that 14 days from the 18 days left. How many days do u have remaining?
Me: 4 days.
Manager: Do u work on Republic Day?
Me: No sir!
Manager: Do u come to work on Independance Day?
Me: No sir!
Manager: So how many days r left?
Me: 2 days Sir!
Manager: Do u come to work on New Years Day?
Me: No sir!
Manager: So how many days r left?
Me: 1 day sir!
Manager: Do u work on Diwali ?
Me: No Sir!
Manager: So how many days are left?
Me: None Sir!
Manager: So what r u claiming?
Me: I have understood, Sir. I did not realise that I was stealing company
money all these days.
