Fight for resource
In a project, the PM (project manager) was working out of Thiruvananthapuram and the DM (Delivery manager) was in Mumbai. One day they had a conf call and the PM and DM dialed in early. While waiting for others to join the DM decided to have a casual talk with the PM.
DM: Hey Mr. PM...!!! How r u...??? What are the weekend plans...???
PM: Not much.
Complete silence for some seconds
Suddenly PM said Pazhassi Raja is getting released today. (Pazhassi Raja is a Malayalam big budget movie starring Mammootty)
DM: Pazhassi Raja...???
DM (now in an irritated tone): How come he got released...???
PM is dumbstruck...!!!
DM (angrily on phone): From which team did he get released. I didnt get any mail regarding this...!!!
DM: Dont release him now. Please hold on for another week. I will let you know once I have consulted other PMs. If any of them need a resource we can use him.
The PM was laughing. The conf call soon started as everyone joined the call
Later, the DM sent out a mail to all PMs.
Dear PMs,
We have one resource, Pazhassi Raja being released today. If anyone wants a resource, please let me know.
One Mallu PM replied.
Dear DM,
Angel John (Mohan Lals next film ) will also get released soon. Do we need to hold him too?
ALL, except DM, were laughing their hearts out!!!! JJJ
