To get anchored
I am shouting and screaming. That means I am scared. Ok. Breathe. Its OK. Everything is alright. Everything is as it should be. The universe is taking care of everything and everyone. I am not responsible for the rotation of the earth. For the running of everyone’s life. And me and my daughter are also … Continue reading
In the end, just grey
Narendra Rana has been asked to leave. Lack of commitment, lack of willingness and a lackadaisical attitude towards work. It is difficult to keep pushing someone all the time, to do all the work in a relationship, in work and otherwise. Narendra.K.Das is travelling to Ahmedabad in his place to collect the required maps.

The ‘men’ are managing the office. That is what we had planned a long time ago. That the ‘men’ should be in the front. That I (i.e a woman) should be at the backend. That is how the world prefers it. We have a senior accountant who is mature and very down to earth. We … Continue reading

To not be able to inculcate an attitude of quality in the technical team. To constantly be on the edge, to constantly … Continue reading
An exit route
The tactics. The exploitation. The big vs the small. Its all there. A real estate client wanted a study done for a site in Hyderabad. Fair enough. We were called for a meeting. We were also told to visit the site immediately at our own expense and commence work. We sent the cost proposal to … Continue reading
All for ‘a back’
In all these decades of my life on earth, I have not been able to understand the right path, the correct path, the correct mission. I have tried. But trying is just that, trying. Succeeding is everything. Money,power,name,fame drives everything. Even ‘sex’ is secondary. And in all this chaos, I guess the biggest drawback is … Continue reading
