"They will never learn"

The class of M.Tech '08 (Manufacturing) @ IITM organized a tea party today as a thanksgiving to the professors. Two of the guests turned up late and here is the scene in words. The names of the profs have been withheld in a desperate attempt to add suspicion to the matter. Anyone who knows IITM profs should take no time in naming the culprits.

"Anand Kumar (carrying the tea and the snacks into the prof's room where the profs (X and Y) are seated): May I come in, Sir?

Y(after accepting the snack, opens the pack and starts sipping the tea): So, where are you people heading?

Anand: Sir, I am joining GM, Satya - Tata Motors, Lakshmikant - M&M, etc. (finishing the list of placed classmates)

X(sipping his tea and grinning nastily): Ok. Just try to keep up OUR name. Don't let US down!

Anand(grinning even more nastily): Surely sir.

Y(with legs crossed, an arm around the back of his chair and the foot suspended in air vibrating at high frequency): Sir, these people can never keep up our name technically, but they will manage things and can keep up our name managerially. Technically they can't do anything. They never learn.

X(the grin continuing and the tea adding to the fire): Yes yes. Nowadays, with the experience I have, I see that the quality is on the decline. If I touch a thesis, I am able to make out what the person has done. If someone gives me a technical paper these days, I am getting those vibrations that communicate what is in the paper to me, on just touching that paper. You know, these fellows have not been whipped. Once they are, they will learn. Unless people get whipped, they don't learn things nowadays. They will get all that when they go to work and then it will be too late.

Anand(still maintaining the grin and looking at Y for some consolation): Sir....

Y(nodding in support of the previous remark): Yes, sir. But you know, these people will cleverly jump elsewhere once they feel they are going to be whipped. They have come here only for the degree. Nothing else. They don't want to learn sir. They come here and look for a job. Thats all! If they wanted to learn, they would have been different fellows. They just don't want to learn.

Anand(getting angry now): Sir... er.... There's nothing like that sir.

X(finishing the tea): But you know Y, I think we are drinking their tea. We shouldn't be talking these things here.

Anand(thinking "atleast you realized that now"): Ha ha ha... (loud laughter in the room)

Y: Ok. All the best.

X: All the best. You may go now.

Anand(sheepishly): Thank you, sir. Good day."

Here's the important thing. Lets do this as a comprehension exercise. Comment on the quality of X and Y.

And for IITM students who have the slightest idea of where I belong, kindly guess the names of X and Y if possible. Good luck!
