Mr. Narayana Murthy's views on staying late in the office!!!!!!!
It's half past 8 in the office but the lights are still on...PCs still running, coffee machines still buzzing... and who's at work?
Most of them??? Take a closer look......
All or most specimens are?????-some male species of the human race!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...
Look close... again all or most of them are bachelors...and why are they sitting late? Working hard? No way!!!
Any guesses???
Let's ask one of them...
Here's what he says... "What's there to do after going home... here we get to surf the Net, AC, Phone, Food, Coffee.. That is why I am working late...most importantly no bossssssss!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the scene in most Research centers and Software companies and other Off-shore offices.
Bachelors "time-passing" during late hours in the office just because they say they've nothing else to do...
Now what are the consequences... read on...
"Working"(for the record only) late hours soon becomes part of the institute or company culture.
With bosses more than eager to provide support to those "working" late in the form of Taxi vouchers, Food vouchers and of course Good feedback,(oh, he's a hard worker... goes home only to change..!!).They aren't helping things too... To hell with bosses who don't understand the difference between "sitting" late and "working" late!!!
Very soon, the boss starts expecting all employees to put in extra working hours.
So, my dear Bachelors, let me tell you, life changes when u get married and start having a family... Office is no longer a priority, Family is... and that's when the problem starts... because you start having commitments at home too!!!!!!.
1. For your boss, the earlier "hardworking" guy suddenly seems to become an "early leaver" even if u leave an hour after regular time... after doing the same amount of work.
2. People leaving on time after doing their tasks for the day are labeled as work-shirkers...
3. Girls who thankfully always (its changing nowadays... though) leave on time are labeled as "not up to it".
All the while, the bachelors pat their own backs and carry on "working" not realizing that they are spoiling the work culture at their own place and never realize that they would have to regret at one point of time.
So what's the moral of the story?? *
* Very clear, LEAVE ON TIME!!!
* Never put in extra time " *unless really needed*
* Don't stay back un-necessarily and spoil your company work culture which will in turn cause inconvenience to you and your colleagues.
There are hundred other things to do in the evening..
* Learn music...
* Learn a foreign language...
* Try a sport... TT, Cricket, Exercise etc etc
* Importantly Get a girl friend or gal friend, take him/her around town...
* And for heaven's sake, Internet cafe rates have dropped to an all-time low (plus, no fire-walls) and try cooking for a change.
* Take a tip from the Smirnoff ad: *"Life's calling, where are you??"*
* Please pass on this message to all those colleagues and please do it before leaving time, don't stay back till midnight to forward this!!!
IT'S A TYPICAL INDIAN MENTALITY THAT WORKING FOR LONG HOURS MEANS VERY HARD WORKING & 100% COMMITMENT ETC. PEOPLE WHO REGULARLY SIT LATE IN THE OFFICE DON'T KNOW HOW TO MANAGE THEIR TIME.
That's the Bottom Line......SIMPLE!!!!!!!!

How Girlz rate Guyz?
Girls’ relationship with guys is a bigger mystery than girls themselves.
It’s not just about boyfriends, we’re talking about guy friends that gals have.
Do you have a gal who is just a friend? Are confused why the frequency of calls increases as exams loom closer? Or why she always hangs around with the moron who isn’t fit to wear Jeetendra’s white shoes? Here’s a ready reckoner for you:
% just a friend %
Well, you are like a show piece in my house. I will call you whenever I need you. If you call me home the chances are 9 out of 10 times she might say, “Oh Ravik, I am going out can you call me after 2 days??”
Ravik: “Where are you going Anushka??”
Anushka: “None of your business” and bangs the phone.(Useless fellow.Hmmph!).
% Good Friend %
You are like a TV remote control. I need you and I know that. But I try using you when I really need you.
Ravik calls: “Hi Anushka”,
Anushka: “Hi Ravik. I am going out with family I will call you back. Bye”
(Anushka calls back after two days)
Anushka: “What do you want Ravik? Why did you call that day?”.
Ravik: “Generally”.
Anushka: “Oh ok. I got to go out. Will call you later. Bye.”
Will call when she needs lecture notes or some concert tickets.
% Very good friend %
Well you are like the pressure cooker safety value for the girl.
She will need you when she wants to bring out her pain or anger on someone.
Basically, she wants to talk to you. And you are special to her.
Anushka: “You know Ravik, Mahesh babu is not eating. He doesn’t sleep and is not able to concentrate on his studies. I think he doesn’t like me anymore. And yesterday I saw him with another girl”.
Ravik: “Who is Mahesh??”
Anushka: “My boyfriend.”
Ravik: Oh! Ok.
% Best Friend %
You are like the auto rickshaw driver. She can’t live without you.
And don’t be mistaken. You are not her boyfriend. But you are allowed to take her little doggie around the park so that he (not you!) can have fun.
Ravik Shopping. Ravik Movie. Ravik Coffee. Ravik,you pay. I am having fun.
Ravik is now sure that he should go ahead and propose. He dares.
Anushka: “But I thought we were just friends. We should remain friends
Ravik. Plus, I have a boy friend you know that.”
Ravik: What?? (Ravik drinks all night).
% Best of the Bestest Friends %
Ok now you are really special.
You are dad-cum-boyfriend-cum-brother-cum-everything.
Ultimately you are the darling servant of the girl.
You take her around.
You make her project.
You do her assignments.
You are allowed to take her doggie around.
You can hold hands on the beach.
You can see the sun set with her (because she wants to do everything she drags you along).
But but but… Don’t be mistaken. She has a boyfriend who works for a huge software company and earns 3 times the salary you earn and has a flat in PoesGardenor Boat Club or Hiranandani area.
Anushka: “Hi Ravik. I am getting engaged to Mahesh. Mahesh this is Ravik, he is my bestest friend”.
Ravik: Hi Mahesh . (Hand shake. Mahesh breaks Ravik’s wrist).
Ravik is now heart broken and wrist broken.
% Boyfriend %
Uh… No comments dude. You’re already Gone!

Now ~ where do you stand?

Office Humour...
After 2 years of selfless service, a man realized that he has not been promoted, no transfer, no salary increment, no commendation. So he decided to walk up to his HR Manager. His manager looked at him, smiled and asked him to sit down saying:"My friend you have not worked here for even a single day." The man was surprised to hear this, but the manager went on to explain.
Manager: How many days are there in a year? Man: 365 days and sometimes 366. Manager: How many hours make up a day?Man: 24 Hours.
Manager: How long do u work in a day?
Man: 10am to 6pm i.e 8 hours a day.
Manager: So, what fraction of the day do u work in hours?
Man: He did some arithmetic and said 8/24 i.e 1/3 (one third).
Manager: This is nice of u! what is 1/3rd of 366 days?
Man: 122(1/3 x 366=122 in days)
Manager: Do u come to work on weekends?
Man: No sir.
Manager: How many days r there in a year that r weekends?
Man: 52 Saturdays and 52 Sundays equals to 104 days.
Manager: Thanks for that. If u remove 104 days from 122 days. how many days do u now have?
Man: 18 days.
Manager: I do give u 2 weeks sick leave every year. Now remove that 14 days from the 18 days left. How many days do u have remaining?
Man: 4 days.
Manager: Do u work on Republic Day?
Man: No sir!
Manager: Do u come to work on Independence Day?
Man: No sir!
Manager: So how many days r left?
Man: 2 days Sir!
Manager: Do u come to work on New Years Day?
Man: No sir!
Manager: So how many days r left?
Man: 1 day sir!
Manager: Do u work on Christmas Day?
Man: No Sir!
Manager: So how many days r left?
Man: None Sir!
Manager: So what r u claiming? Man: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... Moral - NEVER GO TO HR FOR HELP!!! HR - HIGH RISK.
