The day we got paid

I have had plenty of these during my Infy stint but this one was painful at least the run up to it definitely was.
Here we were interning at Chennai, staying in T Nagar, shelling out a hefty sum of 20k per month for an acco thats totally worth it, but I'm so used to spending extravagantly that I'm increasingly tending to live beyond my means. There's no cash coming in, its just a bout of outflows one after the other.
After being financially independent it's tough thinking of the prospect of again asking for money from parents, that day doesn't seem far though.
Now in our summers, most of the guys are being paid on a pro rata basis but then they're also being paid extra for acco, travelling n food now thats fair, but our admin fellas neither wanna give us travelling, nor do they know how much we're coughing up for our room.
After probably a lotta bickering by our mentor they've released the full amount. We're gonna encash it asap lest they change thr mind.
We did all in our power to ensure that we made up for the lost 8 working days that we missed, came on all the weekends, never complained abt anything at all even then they had the cheek to question our motives of coming on weekends. It was suspected that we were working weekends to increase our stipend, ha u wish!!!
