The Unbalanced Scale

Other Job
Better pay

    Present Job
    Get to a 9.30am office at 11.00 am
    make your own deadlines
    Browse while you work
    delegate delegate delegate
    have a week long vacation and still get paid full
    talk rot about how awfully managed the 30 year old company is
    attend every minuscule function at any time of the day/week/month/year
    never do basic work
    get transport and transport allowance
    travel in India and overseas with luxurious stay
    loads of experience in different areas
    leave office when you want to
    AND
    blackmail half yearly that you would be paid ten times (!!!!!!) the salary in any another company
    and earn a raise (brilliant!)

    So what's the deal?

    PS. I had to write this out. Maybe years later the super ego/ immature will hit enlightenment or may be not.......BTW heard about the guy who drops the "I'll divorce" line every time there's a fight?....Strangely they are different chapters of the same book :)

    Life Is Crazy and I love it that way.....

    Maybe I 've blogged about this before...but felt like doing it again. Was having a conversation with S and she triggered a sentence out of me which I loved so much because it was completely true. In a few moments my status msg on FB and Orkut was updated.....It read " Life is crazy and so are most of the ppl in it...BUT Count your blessings... Atleast you r Alive and Living !" How is life crazy? My Acha is still recovering but wants to work for the whole day. For the past few days all of us have been trying to dissuade him from coming in the afternoons. But he has won the battle and only breaks for a couple of hours for lunch..crazy workaholic  My Amma is crazy but she HAS to be because she has a zillion things to do in the given 24hrs...yup she is at home...but Home is where the work is !!!! Do I help? No ...I help by not getting into her way while she's at it ( if she ever gets to read this I'm doomed :)...) My M is crazy because I make him crazy. Wait .....

    A Cuppa Tea

    Can a woman...yes I said A woman get up from her office seat, walk down the stairs, cross the road, to the bunk kadai (the small tea stall) and drink a cuppa tea with a biscuit without being stared at?????????? No. I didn't try....and I don't have the guts to...but love to do that. Maybe at a restaurant or a cafe it would be fine ...now that's a slight relief ...since 10 years ago even that wouldn't  go unnoticed..... PS. The pains of being a South Indian Woman?
