While we are super glad that the world is slowly going back to normal, and we hope it stays that way, we sorta got too comfortable with the WFH life. Now, going out (even for chilling) is a HUGE task. So how are we ever gonna go back to the office… EVERYDAY? So, here are some thoughts every Delhi wala has defo had while going back to the office after quarantine!

1. Excitement Mein Sona Toh Bhool Hi Gaye

After SO long, we are supposed to wake up early. *crying faces* For a lot of us, the anxiety of waking up early has snatched away all traces of sleep from our eyes. Great, first day back to the office and dark circles! *Yo Gotta Be Kidding*

2. Ab Nahana Padega Kya?

Throwback to the days when we woke up at 9:58 AM for our 10 O’clock meetings. No getting ready, no bathing, just wake up and open the laptop! Ah, the good days are over. This is way too hard, especially now winter is also here… Gals, don’t forget your eyeliners & mascara!

3. Goodbye, My Dear Pyjama

This is probably the most dreadful part of working from the office. Remember how we all were attending zoom meetings in shirts & pyjamas? *Hehe* We were wayy too comfy in our soft sweats, and now we gotta decide what to wear- every day! Can someone please draft a petition to make pyjamas the new formals?

4. Shit, I’m Late! (Somethings Never Change)

Oh, yes. THIS is the ONE thing that never changes, no matter what. While during WFH, we got late for our virtual meetings due to our, ahem, household chores, now we’re actually late LATE! And when you’re already late, everything in the universe conspires to make you even later still. Like, why isn’t my metro arriving soon?!

5. Yeh Rasta Hamesha Itna Lamba Tha Kya?

Pre-COVID, we were habitual to our routes. Now, we’re habitual to zero travel. This is why these stations suddenly appear never-ending to us! The journey seems to be dragging on forever, and this makes one wonder, did we always travel this much? Pat on the back for our past selves, the quarantine has only made us lazier!

6. From Beds To Desks - A Tragic Story

You’d be lying if you say you’ve never attended a meeting from your bed (or worse). Seriously guys, no need to keep up the charade, we all know the truth! Now, leaving our comfy couches to sit up straight all day in front of a desk - is it if not a tragic story? We’re already singing sad love songs for our bed, brace your ears!

7. Do We Even NEED Office?

Like, theek hi tha na ghar bhi? Nahin? *Just kidding*… Obviously, we miss our bosses and colleagues, and can’t wait to socialise with the team. Just need to check if we even remember socialising in the first place though. Pro tip: Don’t use the ‘our internet is slow’ excuse again!

8. Humse Na Hopaega!

It’s the journey back home that’s most excruciating, one that makes us question existence. Fine, we’ll drop the dramatics. But, getting a taste of all this comfort and alas, how do we go back? Humse na hopaega!

OK, rant over, guys! Do you people agree?!
