Land of Billion People

This is an incident that occurred in my project, yep the same one LFP about which I described in my previous post. As mentioned earlier the technology team works from the small corner in the garden floor of the corporate office. All the functional teams / PMO etc., are stationed on the second floor. The corner where we sit is really a small place and had two noisey printers as our companions. In that place three people can work sitting adjacent to each other with little comfort.

In the functional team, there are a couple of client people who are from the same land as me. Among them there is a guy called RS who is from my country, who had left the country long back. He moved from one country to another and ended up as a Canadian citizen currently working in United States as my client.  RS is a very funny person, he often surprises with his witty answers. He is a good natured person and has high regards for his home land or rather the land of his origin. 

One of the consultants working here is from my company lets call him JW, a Texan. This guy is a cool dude who is funny at times. 

Usually to do the testing, the functional folks come downstairs to work with us.  One day there were only two of us, this guy JW comes to work with my other team mate. When they were testing some object, RS joins. He had some object scheduled for testing and he was supposed to work with me. In that conjusted location, RS brought a chair from the neighbouring meeting room and was a little confused in arranging it there. Then JW comes up with this phrase and I quote, "Come on man, squeeze in. You come from a Land of Billion People".
