STORY OF A DESPERATE BLOGGER


I don't know if everyone whosoever blogs feels the same way as I do but I certainly have developed this unique desperation syndrome, which gives me attacks to write millions of thoughts floating into my mind. The syndrome is so dangerous that sometimes I have so many thoughts, so many ideas and so many different things floating through my mind at once that I finally end up spending large amount of time without moving out of my desk. Strangely, blogging is cutting my appetite and ending my basic need of living like water. The desperation of blogging has gone to that extent that I don't feel sleepy until I write something on my blog. That is not all, whenever I m reading something my thought process enters into the calculative mode with different thoughts evolving in support or against of whatever I m reading. On a positive note, I have become a intense thinker.

Curiosity of checking wheather a visitor on my blog has expressed something has touched a new level that whenever I open my lappy, the first thing I do is to open my blog to check for the new comments. The feeling of seeing a new comment has almost become equivalent to the feeling I used to have on seeing my good grades in the final report card. The joy to discuss and share what the readers have commented on my blog is priceless. My Blog is giving me such a wonderful experience that I tend to miss my blog if I m travelling and not accessing the internet.

Beyond, all the numerous things those I have mentioned above there is a very special thing that has happened to me called "Blogger Buddies". Still Guessing?? Well its you, all of you who have come to my blog and read various things with so much interest, and haven't shied away from expressing what their heart felt. Its a special bond, I have shared with all of you through your comments, arguments, appreciations and criticisms. With few that bond has even more strengthened as we have become friends via social networking sites and emails.

On a personal note, for me the whole experience with all the people whom I have come in contact through my blog has been so much scintillating!! I have met people from different geographies, different cultures and it's been so nice to hear their different and unique views that I feel like being a part of a global family where I have relatives from different countries. I really want to thank all of you for sharing this relationship with me through your readership and comments, and hope we only grow in numbers from here. Though, the desperation of writing is only going to increase with my addiction of expressing my feelings into words but still I enjoy it the most, after all there is so much to share:).

The Darker Side of Indian's In The Aussie Racial Attack


The whole world is witnessing the racial abuse drama of Aussies taking on Indians students still there have been constant denial from the Australian government regarding its countrymen being involved in the racial abuse. The situation has gone so much out of the hands of Australian government that all their attempts to cope up with such cases are going all waste.


While the media is trying to showcase the exact picture of what is happening and what is not in Australia, there has been alot of fuzz about the incident on the internet. With internet providing the space for non-restricted expressions and emotions, there have been some really interesting informations being circulated around the world and out of which one of the most highlighted sqaushbuckling story is about -- "Why Australians hate Indian??".


One interesting post said- Indian students take advantage of their independence from their parents in Australia and drink alot, as a result of excessive drinking alot of crimes are performed.One other post said- Indians urinate in open spaces and spit anywhere they want. They say- Indians will always talk in the Hindi or some native language even within the class and workplace inspite of other non-indian people being present. One other post said- Indian students will stay in excess within an apartment and as a result they live in a dirty environment. Moreover, Indians will play music in loud volumes in the middle of the night and make huge amount of noise.Another post said- Indians by themselves are suppose to be the most racial people which can be easily justified if somebody visit's India.


Even after reading all the reasons above i dont feel that Aussies should take such a severe step of killing and hurting Indian students in their own country. Yet a human heart should not be provoked to an extent that they start a masaccare of such a mass abuse. Aussies have to be more responsible to mankind and should sustain everything.


Yet whatever have been written in the above posts have intensified the pain in my heart because there was not a single point which i could say is false about us.The reasons which have been shared are somehow hurting me as i see my fellow countrymen doing the same.Aren't we the most racial country in the world? Aren't we fighting among us, be it hindu-muslim or marathi-bihari? Aren't we spoiling our country and making it dirty everyday by urinating in open spaces? Aren't we playing music at loud volumes in the middle of night without caring of anybody else??Aren't we forming groups at our work places and talking in our native languages so that others dont understand??

My eyes goes into tears as i hear the answer from my heart to all these questions as - "YES WE DO IT !!". I know Aussies are wrong in what way they are trying to come over their frustrations but i m even more frustrated to know that we are actually doing all the things what i mentioned above.

I request everybody in India, to raise their standards.Lets start by making a change in thy self. Lets make our country the best place in the world where every Indian is gaining respect by doing something really good for the country rather than because of the money or position. Lets make our India the most beautiful country in the world and the heaven of the planet......

10 things you need to do in order to sack your boss



The boss has always been the undisputed king at the work arena. The boss orders and the employee have to follow him without any rebel. Unfortunately, all bosses are not good to work with, some of them are like devils, who came into our work lives to make it worse and keep on spoiling it. If the things go even worst, the possibility is the boss can sack us. But how can you surrender yourself completely to your boss? How bad it is to loose all your control and act like a numb to whatever have been ordered?
Seriously, it’s a “curse of life” to work under such dominating barbaric bosses. Why not we turn the tables around and get the boss sacked. Yes, you might be thinking- Are You Serious? But indeed, it’s feasible after all the boss is dependent on the employee to get the things done. So, let’s check out 10 ways to sack the boss out of the job:

FORM A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE BIG BOSS: If you can have a better relationship with your boss’s boss than it is very much possible for you to get your boss sacked. You can always take your big boss under confidence and put a bad mouth about your boss, until he is fired.

GET ILL AT THE LAST MOMENT OF AN IMPORTANT DELIVERY: You know there is something very urgent of utmost importance needs to be delivered which has been promised by your boss. Your boss is completely dependent on you for that and the clients are on his head for it. This is probably the best time for you to get him kicked out of the company so what you do next – you get ill in a total bed rest condition at that critical time for your boss. You know all blame will go to your boss and he will get fired.

MAKE YOUR TEAM MEMBERS TO HATE YOUR BOSS: When you hate your boss, make sure you are not the only one who does it. Always discuss the negative points of your boss with the team. If your team members are not convinced, make them convince by some false statements against themselves by the boss. You have to provoke them for going against the boss and complaining to the higher management to remove him.

KEEP THE BOSS IN THE DARK: If your boss is your biggest enemy then keep your boss away from all the useful information about the work. Portray false yet attractive images in front of your boss. At the time of crunch situation bypass your boss to become pilot in the eyes of higher management.

CONSPIRACY: If you have a close female companion in your team, try to bring her close to your boss and then draw a conspiracy by saving the flirt chats between herself and the boss. Later on, by passing the chat transcripts to the HR-department, you are making sure some strict action being taken against your boss.

DIVIDE AND RULE: Sometimes, you need to be a real politician and have to inculcate the divide and rule formula between your boss and rest of the team. By doing this you have actually taken your boss in your complete confidence and more or less boss is in your full control, which in literal terms is nothing but you being the boss rather than the actual boss.

MAKE THE BOSS LOOK DUMB IN MANAGEMENT MEETINGS: It’s important you give all the wrong and incomplete facts and figures to your boss for the management meeting. Later on, when he is explaining the same you keep popping up with questions and proving him wrong with the correct information. By doing that you are scoring a lot of points against your boss and your boss might just get fired.

START YOUR OWN BUSINESS: It’s a pretty bold move to sack your boss, what you need to do is- Start your own business. By doing that you have become your own boss and you just fired your boss from being your boss.

TELL YOUR BOSS’S SPOUSE ABOUT HIS AFFAIR AT WORKPLACE: If your boss is dating a girl from your team and you got to know about it. Than you start trying and collecting all the proofs against him and one good day inform everything to his wife in an anonymous mode. The dearest boss’s wife will not allow him to come to office for sure and in one sense he is fired.

USING YOUR BOSS’S LOGIN AND DOING STUFF AGAINST COMPANY POLICIES: Most of the companies have a strict compliance nowadays. If you are a smart player then this could be a strong point for you to capitalize. Somehow, get your boss’s pc login and password and break the company compliance. He will be caught and fired for it.

BEING REAL: YES IT's ME.....INDIA !!

Gone are those days when India was conserve, calm, silent and hidden. Its that time now where every Indian wants to be as vocal as a peacock in the field and heard by everyone around it. Its visible, the life styles have changed alot, the habits have changed even more and the Indian has now turned in the avatar of a "Global Indian". I have been part of this growing India and certainly the change is visible.
THE MNC CULTURE: The work places has become so western, gone are those days when the dressing and buttering will matter at work places. Its the time where work counts, your leadership skills rules and your communication in sanguine, mesmerises everybody else. All boses are very approachable, your ideas are heard, if not implemented and you have a presence at work. But all only if, you want it because there are always exceptions.
THE YOUTH: The youth of India has become open above caste, creed or religion. They want to have fun with their friends, it does not matter of which religion. There is an equal place for both men and women in young society. The youth is more planned, career oriented and clear about its goal in life and what they really want.
THE CINEMA: There has been a sudden twist in the movies which used to be part of indian cinema.Suddenly, there is a shift from the ALL ROMANTIC TALES to the real and normal life subjects. Movies are having the more real effects with hero's not acting sci-fi or super humans but just normal guy next door. The Maa-Behn words becoming common in all movies and the heroines becoming sexy as the ladies in the audiences are changing much to the competition. Movies are being made more for Youth and Teens as target audiences now. Indian cinema becoming global with Rehman and Resul bringing oscars. The Heat is ON with the buzzword Bollywood. Beyonce,Snoop dog, Timberlake all wants to perform in bollywood.
THE CRICKET: India and its cricketing body has certainly pushed the trigger of whole world towards the biggest market of the cricket i.e. Indian Subcontinent. The unsaid, unannounced monopoly and dominance of BCCI has taken the world with a quite shock but with no rebel as all just want to be part of this mullah party started by Indians called IPL(Indian Premier League). IPL is certainly the cricketing version of Soccer's very own English Premier League. At one end where the money is pouring in at will for the players, on the other side its a win win situation for the great cricket fans of India.
THE PARENTS: Parents have become extraordinary cool today. They have become very open with the idea of children working far from the home or studying away. They are giving full independence to their children in what they want and how they want to pursue. Even the love marriages have picked up alot in number and they are being successfully engaged by the parents consent.Kudos to the next generation parenthood !!
THE LIFESTYLE: Everybody is working on one strategy of EARN MORE SPEND MORE. Earlier, when there were hardly, one or two coffee shops or bars/pubs and restaurant in the cities and now its been flooded with the same. The foreign brands has conquered India like their second homes. The Allen Solly's, The VanHeusen's, The Tommy Hilfiger's all are here in India and selling as never before. The slum has hit everybody but the India is still spending that too big time.
THE FAITH AND DREAM: All the Indian have become confident and had developed a deep faith in themselves in this world arena that today, everybody thinks themselves as competitive as anybody else in the world. Every Engineer or Doctor who is in the making is almost certain of going abroad in their life at least once.Indians are working everywhere and with proven facts and statistics, they are the most skilled and hard working people in offering as professionals. Yes, the Indians have just started being real and what they are and there is huge to come.... STATUTORY WARNING:BEWARE THE INDIANS ARE ON THE MOVE
