Meet the techies.

Today we have decided to classify one of the most commonly found species in all the metro cities in India – Techie. All of you must be hearing this stupid word in your day to day life. This article is our effort to make you aware of this word and the mass identified by it. So let us start with its definition:

Who is a techie?

‘One who is unaware of what is happening in his surrounding, but thinks he knows everything’

‘One who is adaptable to only a closed environment, but claims he is adaptable to the world’

There can be many more, but we are limiting ourselves to two definitions only. Now we focus on the life and living style of a techie. We did some research in this area also and we came to the conclusion that the lifestyle of a techie depends on the category of the techie. So here we present you the categories of techies identified so far:

Married Techie, Unmarried Techie

Rich Techie, Poor Techie

Intelligent & Successful Techie, Lucky & Successful Techie, Honest & Unsuccessful Techie

Coder Techie, QA Techie

Workaholic Techie, Alcoholic Techie

Fake Techie

Junior Level Techie, Manager Level Techie

*The list above is liable to be modified as the research is still on.

Finally we decided to do some research about the nature about techies. We found that these are the kind of people who make the most use of chat applications. Apart from that they are fond of taking part in regular group discussions during lunch and snacks times. Though they do not leave any topic out from their discussion but there are few they like most. When you talk about manager level techies who happen to be rich techies also they prefer to talk about share markets, politics, scams, books & authors and so on. But most of the techies have few common items/entities to talk about or to show off. Let us have a look on these:

Mobile, Camera, iPod, Laptop, Manager, HR, Coding, Switch, Package

Bike, Car, Flat, Onsite, Appraisal, Increment, Tracking, Restaurants, Weekends (TGIF!)

Forwarded Mails etc.

We are concluding our research article here only albeit there are lot many things we can share about techies. One thing you might have noticed that the word techie seems to be derived from the word technology and the above article in no way infers the same. So we are leaving you with this open question as to how this is possible…

Cheers,

Kanishk & Kamlesh
