SOS Computers

Viruses aren't the only thing that cause your PC to slow down. There aren't just enough ways for the virus to spread these days. Anti-Virus defense has improved greatly and any chances of a new threat are thwarted in time. So what are the other things that damage your PC....

Technology addiction

Drugs, Alcohol, Cocaine and computers all have one thing in common. They cause addiction ......

People who know me well enough know what is my bond with computers. They call me by names describing my association with the PC. I am not complaining with being associated alongside a machine that has guided great developments from the landing on moon in 1969 to the Airbus A380 take off this year.

Reality television: The myth buster

Screwed Mechanism for Selection is my definition of SMS in the pretext of reality television. Read on to find out how real is reality telivision in India .....

I am absolutely dumbfounded by the sheer volume of TV channels fencing on the branches of reality programming. Snap the remote for once and check out for yourself. I happen to have access to most of the Hindi channels and it is really annoying when you see the endless number of singers wanting to make it to the top.

Have you got influence? ھازا واستا

هل لديكم أي تأثير

That translates to have you got any influence. This seems to trickle down every job seekers mind. Damn the HR people who have their own wise ways of hiring staff but it is a known fact that influence better known as 'Waasta' really works in the UAE.

Ask the next person you meet if he believes in what I just said. Without doubt I can say he will agree. It is really irritating if some influential person has sent down one of his aides for an interview with you. For namesake you get in the boss's cabin, have a chat, smile and leave.

One more thing not to forget, the one liner that I am tired of hearing, the interviewer will never forget to say that he would get back to you soon and let you know about the all together fake interview. Experienced job seekers know how the reality of this statement

Once in a job, you will realize there are deserving people working under not so deserving people. Climbing the corporate ladder on Waasta is easier and faster. All together why so much fuss ? You must be thinking it is their luck which leads them to where they are but hold on.

Put yourself in a place where you have an undeserving boss who is clueless about himself, forget the work he does. Dont you think he will be an acid rather than a dissolvent to your work.
Where is the morality lost?

Come on people, give the deserving a break and see the difference for yourselves else find me someone influential enough to land a job. LOL !!!

I am always open for comments so punch your way through this issue of 'WAASTA'.

PS: What influenced me to write this post, Farhan Akhtar's singing in Rock On. From direction, to acting and now even singing. How easily can someone get what he wants?

Reflections ..... Who am I to reflect ?

A pretty good question for starters who visit this blog. Sooner than later you will get to know me, my work, my hobbies and what not so I don't wanna bore you with blog introduction posts you have read 1001 times in your life.

Why blogging all of a sudden?

Better late than never, so I thought why not give a shot at at this radically different outpost of expression which is not alien to the world anymore. Ya sounds too complex but in short, I will pour my fury over this barren blog which will turn arid with my thoughts in a couple of days.

What to expect from this blog?
Hmmm.... as of now I am clueless. Expect glimpses of all weird things from photoshop tutorials to annoyingly dizzy articles and may be even a couple of thought provoking senti statements.

Am I all so new to the blogging scene?

Nope, this is my second blog. What happened to the first one, It died in an accident !! LOL. Chuck it people, the past is glory or shame and there is no use scratching your nails over it.

I have a couple of websites, ya to be precise 7 paid websites under one portal.

You must be kidding me, 7 websites ?

I ain't kidding you, seriously. It is a full time company and there are people working for it. Let's leave it till here for the time being and wait for my first reflection.


Adios
