Aim, focus and direction

As he walked into the toilet, he saw the small twelve year old with a big mouth walk out. He smiled at he boy and said "You spend a lot of time in the toilet". The boy responded with an amused "so do you!" He smiled at the boy and walked to a urinal. He was shocked to find the boy turn back into the toilet and walk towards another urinal. Based on his previous interactions with the boy he decided not to question the boy further. But the boy was in a chatty mood. He said "I have a question". The boy kept one of his hand on his hip and asked "How can you keep both your hands on your hips like this and use the urinal properly?" For a moment he was at loss for words. He thought and gave the boy a few words that could prove useful both inside and outside the urinal.

"You should have aim, focus and direction."

As he walked out of the toilet a colleague waved him down. As she walked up to him, he noticed the agitation in her step. As expected, she delivered an unpleasant news without missing any piece of the gory details. He listened to her rants with his right hand on his chin. At the end of her monologue, he gave  her a noncommittal "I will take care of it" and walked away. Within a few step, a set of girls surrounded him and gave a different version of the unpleasant news. Actually, it was not different version but a small part of the unpleasant event, like the part where Bheema met Hanuman in Mahabaratha. Once again he responded noncommittally. Within a few paces, a group of boys surrounded him. These fellows had an entirely a different version of the news. They were the purported creators of the unpleasantness and their view of the events were different from what he had heard earlier. He was reminded of the stories of parallel universe that the scientific philosophers loved to talk and write about, He responded with a grim "I will talk to you fellows later" and walked on. But one of the boy did not allow him to go far. The boy blocked his way and started providing proofs of innocence for an unpleasant event that had not reached his ears yet. He waved him away and walked on. 

At the lunch table, he met a boy whose teeth were in constant danger of being broken thanks to the annoying smirk on his lips. As is usually the case, the boy was at a table that was not assigned to him. He snarled and barked at the boy. I am unable to hide my appreciation for the quality of his bark and snarl. I am sure he could teach German Shepherds and Rottweilers a thing or two about snarling and barking. The boy jumped up and cried out for justice as Louis XVI had done in front of the guillotine a few centuries earlier. As in the case of Louis XVI, he only received a "GRRRRRR!" and "WOOF! WOOF!" in response. The boy walked away shaking his head. He sat on the table and was about to place a handful of food into his hungry mouth when a colleague walked in with a "I have to tell you something about what happened a few minutes back when I was dealing with that set of boys who did not act in a proper manner and caused a lot of issues for others and in the process delayed our work and caused us a lot of problems, which resulted in our work being unsatisfactory and also in delays, which could have been avoided if the fellows had not caused the trouble which resulted in a lot of avoidable problems..." He put up his hand and at first said "GRRRRR! WOOF! WOOF!" and followed it with another "GRRRRRRR! WOOF! GRRRRRRR! WOOF!" She took heed of the words uttered by hi, and said "OK! You finish your lunch. I will talk to you later."

He looked at the food in his hand and said "I should have aim, focus and direction."
