The Great Italian Motorbike Show

Demystifying RG

Ok Ok I haven’t told you I am doing MBA…..RG ‘Relative Grading’ words to sune honge. Agar nahi here it is- Everyone in MBA education is given grades relative to how others have performed. It means if all have performed well or bad; everyone is going to get same marks. But as you must have figured out nobody forms a cartel. In MBA education RG is the "TWO letter" word….But why do we crib about it, why is it wrong? we alwayz crib that why is it here?, why everyone labels others that they are doing RG? Aren’t we all doing it all our life….

When we are born our parents soon start comparing us..our child should be best in sports, academics (though academics take precedence). I still remember Aunties used to talk. Mere bête ke itne number aaye, aapke bête ke kitne aaye. Main to apne bête ko khud padhati hoon,, wagarah wagarah

We even choose to do IIT or AIMS preparation because Tom, Dick and Harry are doing it… We never see what are we capable of? Or we chose to enter only those fields where our parents are working (Film fraternity, lawyers, businessman..)

Social status, materialistic things everywhere; even having a girl friend is like a peer pressure…though not quite visible in India (And all of this blame goes to Indian girls..[;)] )

Even MBA education teaches us do the benchmarking with your competition; it is competitive world…. Reliance, TATAs of the world, etc etc..

But all of sudden in MBA it becomes a ‘Common Word’. Is it really bad? I do not think so because everyone has its own nature; has its own speed; has its own capability. But nobody understands that. Most of the time our expectations from someone is too much that we can’t handle the situation that "usne mere saath aisa kiya".

Anyway my point is that RG should be there but it should be on the basis of hard work, intelligence; and NOT by the way of cheating, information asymmetry.

Because no matter how fast you run; You can’t win the race alone

Summers at Chennai - Part 1

Finally my summers got over. I am back at my college.. last 9 months of college life (sighhh )…..

I was doing my summers at Chennai. When I embarked on my summers, many said it will be tough, food, people, scorching heat wagarah wagarah. Ya there were few incidents (I am trying my best to remember those)

The best one was when I asked auto waala to take me to Airport, he took it for Egmore. And, Voila he took me to Egmore Railway Station

Whenever you go to any restaurant in Chennai there was waiting for atleast 30 min. They will not serve you water or even gave you spoon until you asked them umpteen times

Then every place is like a tongue twister and ends with ‘pam’ or ‘pakkam’… Kotturpuram…thoraipakkam…and awef pakkam…

But what made the stay Jhakas one wazzzzz the Gang…… We were around 15 people at Cognizant…( believe me CTS would still be doing their COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS and would still be thinking out how they have got truck load of NPA s… HR must be facing the muzic)

Be it IPL matches, TDS, Copper chimney or semifinals at pubs or visits at beaches, trips to Tirupathi or Pondicherry… the memories remained

My school friend Rajat once truly said “We meet to create memories but we depart to preserve them”
