the one and only Oli

The risk that I run when I write about Oli is that the words can show him to be overly non-human .. but lemme try anyways..


This ex-Hostel secy of IIMB has continued to be the hostel secy of our house.. which by the way is not an easy job if you have people like Nayak and Bharat staying there!

Transparent to the core, polite and quieter than the rest of us (vs. us is the key parameter mind you!), Oli is the quintessential CMK guy.. No opinion is offered till he is absolutely sure and backed by data, Discussions are dispassionately approached so as to not bias the thinking and most importantly its all about kicking some marketing ass!

Ive always wondered whether it would be easier to get Raja or Oli to do something they did not want to do and despite the lack of data, Oli seems to be the marginal winner - which for those who dont know Raja - IS BIG! - 'Nahi bhai! mujhe toh nahi karna hai' to 'u guys continue on - ill skip' are oft heard in the house.. but the icing on the cake was when we found that he has as SMS template that says 'u guys continue' that he sends out to us when we ask him to join us!!

Recently we found out that Oli has a 2nd family in singapore(assuming that we are the first) - It took Shahanas superior investigative skills to figure it out but once she did it all fell in place.. His in-explicable absences from home, missing ipods and kids stuff lying around at home - and to cap it all - pictures of kids on his phone..

So heres to oli - the rational mind in the house, a fighter to the core and the truest honest person in these 4 walls!
