A boat docked in a tiny Mexican village. An American tourist complimented the Mexican fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took him to catch them. “Not very long,” answered the Mexican. “But then, why didn’t you stay out longer and catch more?” asked the American. The Mexican explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs and those of his family. The American asked, “But what do you do with the rest of your time?” “I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, and take a siesta with my wife. In the evenings, I go into the village to see my friends, have a few drinks, play the guitar, and sing a few songs…I have a full life.”
The American interrupted, “I have an MBA from Harvard and I can help you! You should start by fishing longer every day. You can then sell the extra fish you catch. With the extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat. With the extra money the larger boat will bring, you can buy a second one and a third one and so on until you have an entire fleet of trawlers. Instead of selling your fish to a middle man, you can negotiate directly with the processing plants and maybe even open your own plant. You can then leave this little village and move to Mexico City, Los Angeles, or even New York City! From there you can direct your huge enterprise.” “How long would that take?” asked the Mexican. “Twenty, perhaps twenty-five years,” replied the American.
“And after that?” “Afterwards? That’s when it gets really interesting,” answered the American, laughing. “When your business gets really big, you can start selling stocks and make millions!” “Millions? Really? And after that?” “After that you’ll be able to retire, live in a tiny village near the coast, sleep late, play with your children, catch a few fish, take a siesta, and spend your evenings drinking and enjoying your friends!”

Hey PARTH(employee),
Increment nahin mila, bura hua
Salary cut ho raha hai, bura ho raha hai
Retrenchment hoga, wo bhi bura hi hoga…
Tum pichhla review na hone ka paschataap na karo
Tum agle review na hone ki chinta na karo
Recession chal raha hai…
Tumhare pocket se kya gayajo tum rote ho ?
Tum company ke liye kya business laye the jo tumne kho diya ? Tumne aisa kaun sa product banaya tha jo fail ho gaya?
Tum koi experience le kar nahin aaye the…
Jo experience liya company se liya…
Jo project kiya company ke liye kiya…
Degree le kar aaye, experience lekar chale jaoge…
Jo function aaj tumhara hai,
Wo kal kisi aur ka tha… parson kisi aur ka hoga…
Tum ise apna samajh kar kyon magan ho rahe ho
Hey Paarth, Yahi khushi tumhare tension ka kaaran hai…
Kyon wyarth tension lete ho, kis se wyarth darte ho
Kaun tumhein nikaal sakta hai ?
Policy change to company ka rule hai
Jise tum policy change kehte ho, woh to Management ki trick hai… Ek pal mein tum Increment ke baare mein sochte ho
Doosre hi pal mein tum stipend par aa jate ho…
Review, increment etc. etc. sab mann se hataa do
Vichar se mita do, phir company tumhari hai,
tum company ke ho…
Na yeh increment wagerah tumhare liye hain,
na tum iske kabil ho, Parantu job secure hai, aisa socho
phir tumhein tension kyon hoga ?
Tum apne aap ko Company ko arpit kar do
Yahi sabse bada Golden Rule hai…
Jo is Golden Rule ko janta hai
Wo review, incentive, recession, retrenchment aadi Bhramon se Sada sarvada muqt hai.
Chal UTH, Kaam Kar, Promotion Ki Chinta mat kar Parth.. Karm hi Tera Bhagya
hai…..

My Wishes
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU MY DEAREST FRIEND
God gave a gift to the world when you were born—
A person who loves, who cares,
Who sees a person’s need and fills it,
Who encourages and lifts people up,
Someone who touches each life she enters,
and makes a difference in the world,
Because you are a special treasure
for all that you’ve done.
May the love you have shown to others
return to you, multiplied.
I wish you the happiest of birthdays,
And many, many more
On your birthday, I want to say
Something you don’t want from me.
Things didn’t go so well when I last said it,
And so I’ll keep it silent in my heart.
But how the words reverberate within me!
A song that I must struggle not to sing,
A music I must dance to without motion,
A poem that I must never read aloud.
Your wishes are a wall I would not scale,
Yet won’t abandon, loathe to leave behind.
I cannot have, and cannot bear to lose you,
And so I send you this in my despair.
Happy birthday my dear!
A song of joy for you!
Perhaps these words will touch the heart.

It’s been almost half a year I’ve gone freelancing after I quit my last job and I was quite contented with my life. Surprisingly, one day I received a call from an recruitment office. I say it surprising because I had never posted my CV to any recruitment office coz I was not in the mood to join an another 10-5 job.
Nevertheless, I was excited to gather a whole new experience of getting an employement oppertunity through and recruitment agent. In the course, I was introduced to a lady named Preeti, who would be my commnunicator throught the process. Preeti, a quite young girl, though smart enough and appreciable, called me up one mid day asking me to attend an interview next day.
It was a sort of fun to me and I was really enjoying the play. The next day I was talking to a man, with Indian accent. He told me that he would forward my CV to few employeers and will arrange for the interview. We had some little chit-chat on subject of interests, experiences, and so on…
Therafter, the days were usual. Three four days passed by and there was nothing eventful until one hot day when Preeti called me up once again about half past twelve during the day and asked me to attend the meeting an hour later the same day. This was another surprise to me. I had to get ready for an interview within an hour. Interesting! I thought. I reached the guided location for interview. After an waiting period of about an hour I was made to sit on a half an hour skill test which followed by an interview of a five member jury panel. The interview was sort of classic one. Monotype questions and monotype answers. Then on the the jury member, who was a lady, Prachee and I guess must be someone from HR department, going through my CV remarked that my CV is real scary one! “What is so scary about it?” was the question in my mind. And she, as if, could read my mind, said, a CV that mentions five employeers list within a period of two years is realy scary for new employers to face. Ah! that was it. Possibly she was right. It would represent unstability in common sense but the case was little different here. I explained it to them. They were convinced. This was the end of the story that day. It all happend yesterday.
Today I was returning home from a visit to my friend. I got a call on my cell. It was Preeti again. She said I required to go for a second round of interview at half past four and it would be held on a new place. She guided me the location and I was there. There was Prachee again. Here I came to know that Prachee was a HR consultant and the place I where I was with Prachee was an another recruitment office. My journey of getting employed through the recruitment office was quite differnt here. Different in the sense I was sent to from a recrutiment office to another. Possibly this was because Prachee and her organization is taking care of the HR issues where I was going to get employeed.
It was really awful situation. Things were getting surprisingly favourable towards me and even the things that I had said which would turn me away had failed to make the impact and I got the amazing news that the organiztion where I was interviewed decided to hire me! Prachee briefed me the regulations of the organization and their employement terms. Most of them modified to suit my intake. She didn’t forget to mention that my intake is an exceptional one and also wished me a better luck for exceptional performance.
Now, I was really in ackward situation whether or not to take this job. And I made the bold decision to take it. I immediately accepted the conditions. I am hired. Then I was moving out of Prachee’s office on a bewildered state of mind while she once again remarked “….But your CV is really a scary one…”
