Corporate Slavery..

As I writing this, i m parallely studying on a sunday for a certification which is a part of corporate mandate ...Now thats the advace form of slavery. With time slavery has also gone to next level. Your personal time has shrunked to almost zero..You hardly have time to spent with your friend or family. How many times you go and vistit your friend in a month. Life is spent in office or at home doing weekend shopping and left over is consumed by idiot box. You call your firend and answer is I am in a meeting Can i call you back. Its a polite way to end a conversation and it took me some time to realize this. Earlier i use to take seriously and wait for them to call back. From my childhood days, on completion of every milestone be it going to school, X board, XII board, appearing for entrance examintaion going to college there has been a sense of evolution, achievement and satisfaction. However, its not anymore. Now life has become monotonous , endless and repeatitive...Come recession and it was official. corporate made working 9.15 hours a day mandatory. It was portrayed as the finest HR inititative in the interest of people.Those finest people didn't even give it a consideration that how much time a day I am left with.I have to stop here becuase I have to study for my certification. I will leave you with a thought think seriously if you are happy or have we stopped recognizing the value of independecne.

    Anurag bhai,

    Thing has been very well said. Days come and go without leaving any mark. During our childhood days we use to take pride in solving difficult problems. Now we do not have problems but pains. The art is to convert these into well posed problems so that it has a solution. Most of us do not know how to do it. Hence we continue to live through the pain unless it gets so numb that we hardly feel it. That is why we do not react to our surroundings and do not complain when our office makes us work extended hours and eats up our personal time. It helps us to develop the numbness to sustain the pain.

    You always had a penchant for writing. I am keen to follow your blogs.
