कारण शेवटी मी एक प्रोफेशनल आहे

कारण शेवटी मी एक प्रोफेशनल आहे

आज-काल मला जुन्या आठवणी फार फार सतावतात
शाळेतल्या-कॉलेजमधल्या सगळ्या सगळ्या गोष्टी आठवतात
सध्या काम कमी अन् वेळ भरपूर
कंटाळा आलाय आता नेट सर्फिंग करून
काय करणार सध्या बेंच वर आहे
कारण शेवटी मी एक प्रोफेशनल आहे

दिवसातले किमान 10 तास मी कंपनी मध्ये घालवतो
कंपनीच्या पैश्याचे A\C, नेट अन् टेलिफोन्स वापरतो
चार-चार वेळा कॉफी प्यायची सवय लागली आहे मला पण माझ्या
कॉलेज canteenच्या कटींगची सर नाही त्याला
कंपनीतले बेचव जेवण गोड मानून घेतो आहे
कारण शेवटी मी एक प्रोफेशनल आहे

कट्ट्यावरच्या गप्पा तर कधीच मागे पडल्या
A\C Coneference roomsमध्ये आता मीटिंग्स होऊ लागल्या
टीम-मेटसच्या गर्दीत माझ्या मित्रांची टोळी हरवली
पक्या, अज्या, रघूची जागा आता मूर्थी, कृष्णन आणि रेवतीने घेतली
ODCमध्ये एकतरी मराठी माणूस शोधतो आहे
कारण शेवटी मी एक प्रोफेशनल आहे

सुरुवातीला खूप फोन SMS व्हायचे
कोण कुठे काय करतोय लगोलग कळायचे
आजकाल जो-तो projectमध्ये बिझी ज़ालाय
भुला भटका missed call आता महाग झालाय
forwards आणि chain mailsमध्ये खुषालीची मैल शोधतो आहे
कारण शेवटी मी एक प्रोफेशनल आहे

दर वीकएण्डसला मे मल्टीप्लेक्स मध्ये जातो
दीड-दमडीच्या मुव्हीसाठी शे-दीडशे मोजतो
सेलेब्रेशन्स,पार्टीज साठी pizza hutchaचा रस्ता गाठतो
vegie crust, paporonie कसले कसले फ्लेवर्स मागवतो
पण pocket moneyसाठवून केलेल्या partyची मजा ह्यात शोधत आहे
कारण शेवटी मी एक प्रोफेशनल आहे

रोजचा शिरस्ता म्हणून घरी एक फोन लावतो
एकुलता-एक असण्याचे आपले कर्तव्य पार पाडतो
“आता कधी येशील?” असे आई रोज विचारते
बाबांच्याही आवाजात हल्ली खूप चिंता जाणवते
करियर आणि आई-बाबांपैकी मे माझ्या करियरला निवडले आहे
कारण शेवटी मी एक प्रोफेशनल आहे

खरच सारे काही गेलेय आता बदलून
एका टॅग ने ठेवलाय माझे आयुष्य जखडून
कधीतरी तो दिवस येईल
officeमधून थेट मी माझ्या घरी जाईन
पण मला माहितेय हे एक स्वप्न आहे
कारण शेवटी मी एक प्रोफेशनल आहे.

Mi nahi lihali aahe.
