Training , Burning & Learning

The prof wants something innovative for weekly presentations during HCM class. Little did we know we had just two hours for the next class . So voila I wrote a poem on training and development in less than 15 mins. Happy with the feedback and glad that sir asked for the poem to carry alongJ

I ventured out of my nest one day

Pressure comes to an end they say

Engineering , Bcom, Bsc and the like

Out of college, a job and a hike

Then I landed up in Infosys.

Big, big cubicles and management crisis.

Everyone is drinking coffee and chai

What am I to do here I let out a sigh!

Then came a monster called Mr. Manager

Said “I am your boss”, I could smell danger

I understood him to be an IDIOT of the highest order

Cos he told me I better be a fast learner

Training and development is very important

Blah, blah, blah he thinks he is omnipotent!

So I decided to excel at office

Microsoft excel, power point presentations came to my notice

No, no this isn’t enough the egghead said

It isn’t as easy as eating butter and bread

On the Job ( OTJ) training and Off the Job ( OTJ) is compulsory

Or else you will end up in a big, big curry!

I wondered whether Mr. Manager was always a fool

Or he became this way after using training as a tool.

Then I realised I need to be trained

Or else off they will send me via the next train.

So happily I went to start my OJT

Everyone had a smile & was full of glee.

Few were big and few were small

Few were long and very strong.

Everyone wanted the best piece of the pie

I just sat in a corner dreaming of Aishwarya Rai

Wake up, wake up don’t you want some knowledge?

I just wanted to be back in college!

Multiple rounds of explaining each step

My speed increased, I became refined and pep

Compliments I got one fine day.

Mr. Manager was all happy and gay!

He then sent me off for Off the Job Training

I realised this is never – ending.

Lectures, simulation and Out bound Learning

Why can’t they just have some singing and dancing?!

My level of learning was analysed

I thought they were out to get me penalised

Finally after 10 days of learning and fun

They told me I got a project to run

Imagine my happiness when I was assigned the task

Ace it I will, I am sure to last!

With the training I got I was sure to hit the stars

With the money I earn, I shall visit all the bars.

A shot or two wouldn’t do any harm

After all they took me in cos of my CHARM!!!

Trichy Police - “Redefining Peace”

ATTENTION! According to the statistics for 2007, released by the National Criminal Records Bureau, Tamil Nadu had a total cognizable crime rate of 261.7 per one lakh population, while that of Chennai was 256.9.

Chennai’s crime rate ensures that the metro is ranked a creditable 24 th among 35 major cities in the country while Coimbatore stands at the 22nd position and Madurai at the 30 th .

According to latest government statistics, Delhi accounted for 13.2 per cent of a total of 3,43,749 crimes reported in 35 mega cities across the country in 2009 followed by Bengaluru (9.4 %) and Mumbai (9.1%).

WASTE MANAGEMENT- WHOSE RESPONSIBILITY IS IT?

What’s Bangalore’s biggest nightmare? Those in mansions and bungalows can escape it once they are inside their homes. The roadside, slums, villages are filled with it. It is the city’s most dreaded enemy. With rising piles of garbage across town, Bangalore is on the verge of saturation with added pressure on landfills and age- old technologies. Solid waste management takes committed and responsible implementation of waste collection, handling and disposal. With the deep corruption and irresponsible officials, which includes regulators and engineers, it will be very hard to solve this crisis. All those contractors mishandling their contracts should be jailed and be kept away from getting such contracts, so future contractors do an honest job, hopefully. But can anyone point out the exact reason for this crisis? The success and failure of waste management can be attributed to several factors that may seem obvious such as proper disposal of waste, participation of the community, hiring th...

For Self or a Selfie?

The Oxford English Dictionary's Word of the Year for 2013 was 'selfie’. No points for guessing why. Carol had a unique hobby. She liked capturing different images of the sky. While she was on a solo road trip, she decided to click one such photograph. However this one turned out to be a selfie. Little did she know that a small adventure awaited her. As she was clicking her photograph with the sky as the backdrop, two men stopped by on a bike, one jumped into Carol’s car and both of them sped away. It all happened in a fraction of a second! Carol used her presence of mind and checked her picture. She had actually captured the two crooks in her selfie! Tracking the men wasn’t tough and she got back her car- A classic example of how a selfie can save us! But all is not lways well with a selfie. Just like there are two sides of the same coin, a selfie too has a good and bad side attached to it. Just a few years back before s...
