PRIORITIZING WORK AT OFFICE

Image
PRIORITY WORK AT OFFICE Priorities or priority or Prioritizing … huh! The most confusing & psychologically troubling thing to do. This is by boss, lets prioritize, this is for wife`s take home list, lets super-prioritize, I am wasting money on this, lets prioritize. So many blabbers, so much to think, so less time. What I wrote above is confusing just like what happens in our head while prioritizing things in our day to day life. As everything in our life is important just because we don’t want to end 2nd & wish to be the first. And that’s not a bad thought either. So how to end this psychological race into ranking & winning over our ACTION ITEMS.  Action shall happen in our processes in an automated way & not merely in our thought or mind To become more mentally stable & balanced. Always, remember Priority & Ranking are 2 different things ( let me emphasize ) DIFFERENT things to do. Ranking is lower priority. Priority is highest ranking. ...

LIFE OF Pi-TATO

                                                LIFE OF PI-TATO I feel we Engineers are working in a market, And this market has taken a CORPORATE CULTURE shape of a typical Indian vegetable market these days, where i relate myself easily to the POTATOES. I think all the Engineers may be made analogous to the Potatoes. So, i am like another potato who wants to get transformed into an ONION or usually we call him a manager. But, becoming an Onion is not easy. One has to go through chopper like Performance Management systems and knife like certifications which may peel you off drastically. But like my other fellow potatoes, no matter what, i still want to become an Onion. So, after my hard work and diligent efforts outside my base location for...

Sweet christmas

SWEET CHRISTMAS Day was 24th December 1986, What mom! that is so cheap.Stop doing that. Ohh, sorry son, I thought, you might like it. Same day , year 2016,  Its a beautiful christmas eve, and we are planning to spend it with family and today is the last day of year in office. Wow! they have called santa claus, i mean a person enacting as a santa claus. He is distributing sweets to everyone. Everyone is rushing towards him and he is going to everyone`s place and greeting them, and is being greeted by everyone. Being a Santa he has to give away sweets as that is what we relate santa with, since our childhood. He is having a few chocolates and assorted sweets or toffees as i may call it. And i being lucky one, got a small chocolate. It is such a jovial and happy atmosphere created by the Santa. Everyone is saying thanks to the santa and leaving the office by cheering and wishing each other. Many of us are keeping there chocolates and toffees safe in there pockets. May be lik...

TRAVELLING GEARS.

TRAVELLING GEARS FOR DELHI. O My God! Its Friday, 05:20 PM and i am in office.  No No don't get me wrong, its not about Friday night party. Instead, its something more substantial and concerned with comfort. Actually, i need to catch a metro by 1715 else i will be in deep trouble.Almost all the offices call it a day at 1730. And if i by mistake co-incide with the same time. I wont even get the place to stand in a metro TRAIN. Yes i am serious and talking about a TRAIN. But believe me, i am in a city where it does makes sense. I am in Delhi or New Delhi, as they may call it. But to my horror i am already late. Finally i manage to cover 2 km to reach metro station in around 27 minutes because of the craziest traffic in the world. I may take the liberty to say that it is not a straight road of 2kms, rather, it is a straight Round about of 2 kms.where anyone can come from any side. Traffic rules!!!...they are just a myth here. At 1757, i press my feet on metro station a...
