Late Sitting - by Narayan Murthy


 

Very Good Article on Late sitting -

Email from the boss

cid:image001.jpg@01C9337A.287235D0
Mail sent by Narayan Murthy to all Infosys staff:


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 ??
Something male species of the human race...

Look closer... 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 2 do after going home...Here we get to surf, AC, phone, food, coffee that is why I am working late...Importantly no bossssssss!!!!!!!!!!!'

This is the scene in most research centers and software companies and other off-shore offices.

Bachelors 'Passing-Time' during late hours in the office just bcoz they say they've nothing else to do...
Now what r the consequences...

'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 start 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... b'coz u start having commitments at home too.

For your boss, the earlier 'hardworking' guy suddenly seems to become a 'early leaver' even if u leave an hour after regular time... after doing the same amount of work.

People leaving on time after doing their tasks for the day are labelled as work-shirkers...

Girls who thankfully always (its changing nowadays... though) leave on time are labelled as 'not up to it'. All the while, the bachelors pat their own backs and carry on 'working' not realizing that they r 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 unnecessarily 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.........

Importantly,get a girl friend or boy friend, take him/her around town...

* And for heaven's sake, net 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 TO MANAGE THEIR TIME. SIMPLE !


Regards,
NARAYAN MURTHY.

THINK OUT OF BOX

 Below are the IAS Interview Questions, which were asked in HR Round.....
 
No one will GET second chance to impress....
 
Very very Impressive Questions and Answers..... ...
 
Question 1:
 
You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night,
it's raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop, and you see
three people waiting for a bus:
An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
An old friend who once saved your life.
The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.
Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing very well that
there could only be one passenger in your car?
 
This is a moral/ethical dilem ma that was once ac tually used as part of a
 
job application.
 
* You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus
you should save her first;
 
* or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and
this would be the perfect chance to! pay him back.
 
* However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.
The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming
 
up with his answer. Guess what was his answer?
 
He simply answered:
 
"I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let him take the lady to
 
the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner
 
of my dreams."
 
Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought
 
limitations. Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box."
 ------------------------------
 
Question 2:
 
What will you do if I run away with your sister?"
 
The candidate who was selected answered " I will not get a better match
 
for my sister than you sir"
 
 
Question 3:
 
Interviewer (to a student girl candidate) - What is one morning you woke
 
up & found that you were pregnant.
 
Girl - I will be very excited and take an off, to celebrate with my husband.
 
Normally an unmarried girl will be shocked to hear this, but she managed
 
it well. Why I should think it in the wrong way, she said later when asked
 
 
Question 4:
 
Interviewer: He ordered a cup of coffee for the candidate. Coffee arrived
 
kept before the candidate, then he asked what is before you?
 
Candidate: Instantly replied "Tea"
 
He got selected.
 
You know how and why did he say "TEA" when he knows very well that coffee
 
was kept before.
 
(Answer: The question was "What is before you (U - alphabet) Reply was
 
"TEA" ( T - alphabet)
 
Alphabet "T" was before Alphabet "U"
 
 
Question 5:
 
Where Lord Rama would have celebrated his "First Diwali"?
 
People will start thinking of Ayodya, Mitila [Janaki's place], Lanka
 
etc...
 
But the logic is, Diwali was a celebrated as a mark of Lord Krishna
 
Killing N arakasura. In Dusavata ar, Krishnavatha ar comes after
 
Raa mavatha ar.
 
So, Lord Rama would not have celebrated the Diwali At all!
 
 
Question 6:
 
The interviewer asked to the candidate "This is your last question of the
 
interview. Please tell me the exact position of the center of this table
 
where u have kept your files."
 
Candidate confidently put one of his finger at some point at the table
 
and told that this was the central point at the table.
 
Interviewer asked how did u get to know that this being the central point
 
of this table, then he answers quickly that
 
"sir u r not likely to ask any more question, as it was the last question
 
that u promised to ask....."
 
And hence, he was selected as because of his quick-wittedness. .......
 
This is What Interviewer expects from the Interviewee. ...

Difference between USED vs LOVED

USED vs. LOVED

While a man was polishing his new car,
his 4 yr old son picked up a stone
and scratched lines on the side of the car.

In anger, the man took the child's hand
and hit it many times not realizing
he was using a wrench.

At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers
due to multiple fractures.

When the child saw his father.....
with painful eyes he asked, 'Dad when will my fingers grow back?'
The man was so hurt and speechless;
he went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times.

Devastated by his own actions......
sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches;
the child had written 'LOVE YOU DAD'.
The next day that man committed suicide. . .

Anger and Love have no limits;
choose the latter to have a beautiful, lovely
life & remember this:
Things are to be used and people are to be loved.
The problem in today's world is
that people are used while things are loved.

Let's try always to keep this thought in mind:
Things are to be used,
People are to be loved.

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character;
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny
.

30 second Speech by Bryan Dyson (CEO of Coca Cola)

VERY SHORT, MOST EFFECTIVE AND HOW TRUE...

30 second Speech by Bryan Dyson (CEO of Coca Cola)

"Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five
balls in the air. You name them - Work, Family, Health, Friends and
Spirit and you're keeping all of these in the Air.

You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop
it, it will bounce back.

But the other four Balls - Family, Health, Friends and Spirit -
are made of glass. If you drop one of these; they will be irrevocably
scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be
the same. You must understand that and strive for it."

WORK EFFICIENTLY DURING OFFICE HOURS AND LEAVE ON TIME. GIVE THE
REQUIRED TIME TO YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS & HAVE PROPER REST.

We never do this because we have brains !!!!

It was a Sports Stadium.

Eight Children were standing on the track to participate in a running event.

* Ready! * Steady! * Bang !!!

With the sound of Toy pistol,

All eight girls started running.

Hardly had they covered ten to fifteen steps,

when one of the smaller girls slipped and fell down,

Due to bruises and pain she started crying.

When the other seven girls heard the little girl cry they stopped running, stood for a while and turned back.

Seeing the girl on the track they all ran to help.

One among them bent down, picked her up and kissed her gently

And enquired as to how she was..

They then lifted the fallen girl pacifying her.

Two of them held her firmly while all seven joined hands together and walked together towards the winning post........ ..


There was pin drop silence at the spectator's stand.

Officials were shocked.

Slow claps multiplied to thousands as the spectators stood up in appreciation.

Many eyes were filled with tears

And perhaps even God's!

YES.!! This happened in Hyderabad [ INDIA ], recently!

The sport was conducted by

Life is tough but it is a lot tougher when you are 'not paying attention'

Story - Students of MBBS:
 
1st year students of MBBS were attending their 1st anatomy class.They all
gathered around the surgery table with a real dead dog.The Professor
started class by telling two important qualities as a Doctor.

The 1st is,NEVER BE DISGUSTED FOR ANYTHING ABOUT BODY,e.g. He inserted his
finger in dog's mouth & on drawing back tasted it inhis own mouth.

Then he said them to do the same.The students hesitated for several
minutes.But eventually everyone inserted their fingers in dog's mouth &
then tastedit.

When everyone finished, the Professor looked at them and said:

The most important 2nd quality is OBSERVATION, I inserted my Middle
fingerbut tasted the Indexfinger. Now learn to pay attention.

**Moral:*
Life is tough but it is *a lot tougher* when you are *not paying attention*
