Corporate Circle

Life comes one full circle always.

  • We throw tantrums and are immature in understanding while we were kids and we reach the same state in more or less same manner in old age.
  • We spend a fortune of time in gathering assets before which we are penniless and then in difficult times we write off whatever possible, sell the assets and make sure we are debt free or file for bankruptcy or penniless and reach back where we started.
  • We begin as single, find some one, procreate and when the kids leave us for better or worse and if one of the is no more the other one comes back being single again.
  • We begin with people pushing us up towards an aspiration of a qualification or career, we do pretty well amidst the corporate jungle and jerks, reach to the top, find ourselves alone or find many trying to pull us down eventually our qualification or experience is so saturated that we end up being an individual who wanted to be part of team but now a consultant with his skills that are in least demand.
  • We have a quest for traveling many places, trek or tour and finally in old age the biggest journey turns out to be from bedroom to bathroom, many times with no travel.

Just heard about Jet Airways cutting jobs. I think it is the same phenomena with our so called Economy and Corporate Houses. First they germinate a new Industry with full, partial or no support from Government. They show lots of dreams to young minds in the event generating many cottage or secondary service industry along with the primary one. The there are hypes of people being hired from the best lot from the best institutes or colleges etc. Then comes my favorite “futile educated” clan who have nothing more to do but ogle at Laptops and High Salaries where in productivity brought by the smallest employee, but some how they take credit for being the leader, the MBAs. If these MBAs are ever taught to become leaders or create jobs, why then in the certain Economic downslide(perhaps brought by consumers – who they created or government – whom they pay taxes) are into Job Cuts. So the circle of MBAs’ or Managers’ or the Board’s responsibilities is to create jobs & then cut jobs. I wonder what Managers actually learn, whether they go to a business school or not. Corporate arena is always not knowing where it goes but sadly all of us rely on them. I wonder how pre-industrialization things were.

Eye twitching & Myths

For the last 4 days, my left-eye is twitiching. It has been almost 3 years it happened. Well I did experience some bad-luck the last time it happened, but when was good luck on my side anyways :P ? But I went of searching on the net about superstition & eye twitching & as usual google came up with millions of links. Why is google so good in searching ? Millions of people suffer from eye twitching – in some it may be intermittent, brought on by a sudden increase of stress or sleeplessness. In others, it’s more pronounced and can interfere with day to day life. Regardless of which category a person falls into, there’s a goldmine of superstitions that revolve around eye twitching. In fact eye twitching ranks up there with itchy palms and hiccups as the most superstition prone condition! Each culture seems to have its own take on the deeper significance of eye twitching. In China for instance, where superstitions and myths frequently cross over into modern living, the chief superst

Work From Home... but for Whom?

COVID 19, undoubtedly has changed the world's diaspora. For ages, many aspects have changed man's life. From his days of foraging and vagabond lifestyle during the Homo-Sapien growth phase to discovering fire or farming and more. But all changes on man's life (pardon me, today it may sounds sexist, but I am habituated to old English style, so I mean mankind or all the humans) have not only brought a new venom but also a nectar that though, has not made him immortal but has remained with him for as long as possible. Glancing about those history is unwarranted on this post so I'll straight away jump to three major changes in man's life -  The industrial era The technology and service era The post COVID era What I can express is known by many very well, but something exclusive I can share here is, what industrial era brought to man's life is the idea of a job . Robert Kiyosaki, in his book Rich Dad, Poor Dad , which I read somewhere in 1999, has vividly expressed t

Living a Lie is a Bliss - All is well...

 "Living a Lie is a Bliss", isn't it? Well I am not saying we should lie to people but for many, many aspects lying to yourself is indeed a better way of avoiding depression, sorrow, disappointment and fueling optimism at large. I might sound as suggesting a prescription but the real world asks you to be in a Bliss and live a lie whenever possible. Your lies will not be tolerated but you living a lie is very much accepted. From the very world we call it as ours, our family, our relatives, our friends and dear ones to the world of profession, business, place where commercial transaction is involved from job to things we buy for life, for surviving, everywhere you are expected not to lie but if you are living a lie, then you are welcomed. Yes! Its the hypocrite world. You cannot stand alone by refusing to accept the life that is given to you by everybody including the government. We live to fulfill this lie. What happens if we refuse to accept the lie around us? Take for ex
