Engineering student goes into depression after failing to update his status on getting placed

In a bizarre turn of events, an engineer was found suffering from depression after he failed to update his Facebook status on landing a job. Mr Tundey Lal, a fourth year student at the ‘Local Institute of Technology’ got placed in a major Indian IT company. On receiving the news of his placement, Tundey was supposed to follow both those rituals that every engineering student, who gets placed, has to follow:

1. Give party to all his friends in the College Canteen (who keep shouting “Party”).
2. Update his FB and Whatsapp status with the news of his placement.

Tundey’s ‘Getting Placed’ selfie

It was during the step 2 of the ritual that the problem arose. Due to some reason FB had blocked Tunday’s id and he was denied access for the next 24 hours. This came as a shock to Tundey and he fainted. In fact, had it not been for one of his friends, who sacrificed one of his ‘samosas’ in the process of saving Tundey, Tundey would have fallen flat on the floor.

His friends told us that Tundey was very excited initially. In fact he was scrolling through different status ideas for putting his FB status and had ultimately decided to go with a selfie along with a caption: Hell Yeah, my ‘Getting Placed’ selfie

But all his dreams of seeing 100’s of likes and comments for the first time on any of his posts fell apart as soon as he tried logging into his FB account. His friends tried to console him saying that he could still put a status on his WhatsApp account and everybody would know. But Tundey was inconsolable as he shouted about how he wanted to show off his status to his neighbour Mr Sharma’s son (FB only friend), with whom he was often compared to since he was in kindergarten.

By the time of writing this report, Tundey’s condition had gotten so bad that even the news of Mass Bunk in the college failed to bring a smile on his face. The only hope now he has is to keep counting the minutes until 24 hours pass and he gets the access back to his FB id.
