Life -- A Cage

Image
My friend is residing in a PG, on the Land of FILM STARS -- Aamchee Mumbai. There we can find from huge well constructed Buildings, acquainted with lots of facilities to Slums. No No No… don’t take me wrong, I am neither commenting on the life style of Film Stars nor discussing havocs of SLUMS. But something else which is more misfortune, a pain but still we call it A LIFE. My friend told me that she has a pet, a parrot in her room. She told me that when she returns home from office and enters in the room, Parrot starts chirping and fills the room with saccharine whistle.  She loves playing with Mithoo (her parrot’s name). They sing Duets, play Antakshree, converse (obviously in their respective languages because Mithoo does not know Punjabi).I want to be the part of that conversation because I want to see who talks more - My Friend or Mithoo. How Mithoo sleeps is also a lovely style, Mithoo folds its neck in a very exquisite way and then sleep. My friend gives a handkerchief to Mit

Discern Yourself – An Advisor or Overindulgent

‘Suggestions’ a word loved by all and a profession performed by everyone in this universe. But sometimes this word loses its importance when it is used by a set of people who are Overindulgent (those who love to interfere in every activity of other people). Such kind of people knowingly or unknowingly destroys the lives of everyone who are unfortunately in touch with them. We can find this set of people everywhere. With everywhere I mean place, relation, locality etc. I am not framing my personal sentiments but I am trying to portray a real picture with a scenario. This is a scene which includes ‘A Shopkeeper’ and A Set of ‘Overindulgent people’. A Shopkeeper has just completed all inaugural ceremony of his Sweet Shop. Overindulgent 1 – Oh my God! What have you written on the board? Shopkeeper – Why, what happens? It’s very nicely written “BEST QUALITY SWEETS ARE AVAILABLE”. Overindulgent 1 – No, Don’t write Best Quality. This creates a doubt among customers that may be low qua

Value of TIP … In somebody’s Life

Place – CCD Day – Feb 17, 2010 I had my cup of coffee and ordered for the bill. The waiter who was serving us got the bill and placed in front of me with a sweet and innocent smile on his face like he was saying Thanks In Advance . I kept 100 bugs in the bill book and started waiting for the waiter to come so that I could get my remaining amount of money (A little of 16 bugs but costs to me a lot as I can buy a lot in this amount of money also may be Milk or Juice). When I was thinking all this I got the chance to open the bill book again as the waiter had kept the remaining amount there in the bill book. I stood up as I was supposed to leave for my room and the waiter came again to clear the table. Just to confirm myself that I had not left anything behind on the table or futon I looked behind and I came to know -- How important is a TIP? This I came to know when I paid the bill but not the tip money. The waiter, who was serving us, was very ke

Your thoughts become Things

Image
I spent my weekend, reading a book “The secret”. I find it very real and interesting. Real because the ways which are being mentioned to own or to receive a thing are logical and natural. Interesting because I can feel that the things which I have received (though they are few in number, but quite useful and something for which I fought well to achieve) are a part of the methods mentioned in the book (I will share in the later part of my blog). According to ‘The secret’ we have three simple steps to become proprietor: Step 1 – Ask Ask may be an order or may be a request to Universe. Let the universe know what your wishes are and let him find it actually for you (Like a GENIE). It can be anything like Experience or a machine or man or woman etc. Step 2 – Believe Now start believing that you have the same thing with you for which you have placed the order to ‘The Universe’. Don’t think how the universe will do it, because it’s not your part to play. Let the universe do it for

A Day for Me is….I’m Waiting

Companies have started visiting our campus. I am floating my resume (Record of Enemy’s Success Updates Must be Engraved) . Another very nice thought from Amir Khan’s New movie – “ Jab apne dost ka naam result main naa ho, to dukh hoota hai. Magar jab uska naam sabse top main ho to aur ziaada dukh hota hai. ” I am using as well as fighting with both the situations. Using because these two thoughts are one of the tools to fight and Fighting because everyone is using the same tool with same tendency. Various talent hunters are grilling my resume on various criteria’s like Politics, Marks, Certifications and many others (As per the Evaluator’s Norms). To the extent Evaluator’ Norms are concerned, only two people know about it: - Evaluator (Himself/Herself) and GOD. As if for now I have attended as many interviews as I can, but not succeeded because of one or many reasons. It’s easy to cross any hurdle but the Evaluator criteria. When he wants to recruit you, he will ask you “Tell

Retail @ Information Technology

Image
Imagine a shopping cart equipped with a scanner and a touch-screen computer that acts as a virtual personal shopper. As you scan items and put them in your cart, the computer offers information about each product and suggests complementary items. The computer keeps a list of the items in your cart with a running total so you know exactly how much you're spending. When finished shopping, you head to a self-checkout stand or to a cashier. Because your items are already totaled and bagged, the wait time is minimal. All you have to do is pay. The power behind this hassle-free shopping experience is radio frequency identification (RFID) technology. RFID is helping retailers around the world improve customer satisfaction and increase sales. The technology is transforming the retail industry by offering retailers real-time visibility into inventory and product movement to improve store productivity and loss prevention. Many of the world's largest retailers have mandated RFID t
