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 :)

    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?

    Learning to Love

    Not many people in the world love you unconditionally...Atleast for me ..not many...I have realised that only my Amma and Acha have the unselfish love that even I cannot show as a parent to my child. I am blessed to have them as my parents and there isn't a minute in my life that I fail to understand that and be thankful for that. Unselfish Love is so so scarce and I have it in 2 ppl....I am guilty of being selfish even to those 2... out of sheer laziness that is... I find that they are very good human beings. They love without expecting to be loved...which is very very difficult in my case. I can't bear it when love isn't reciprocated. I can love an enemy or a stranger because I seek and find some good in every soul ...BUT I can't love somebody who knows me well if that person hasn't shown me instances of love or has shown me instances of hate.....I have the patience ....but for how long....there is a point when i tend to never forget the misdoing or undoings...
