Mother & MotherHood

Happy Mothers Day !!!

Mother is a feeling which cannot be expressed in words. The first word you spell as an Infant and continue to utter at times of utmost pain and forget when everything is Apt :)

I was in a confused State of Mind yesterday when i wanted to wish my Mom for being there and dedicating a Day to her. I somehow managed to get the courage and wished her 'Happy Mothers Day' !!! What was going in my nerves to brain and the thought of wishing her on a Mother's Day was not a Good feel. Why was i feeling so ?? Well, maybe, because a 'Mother is a replica of God'. When we don't let a day go without praying how can we let a day go without thinking & appreciating Mom. Suddenly, thoughts kept flowing into me of what all my Mother has done to me for me to be the person I am Today. Right from correcting the behaviour to pointing out the mistakes and forgive you for all the Blunder's you have done as kids and till date, She is the Person you would look up with pride and Thank God for letting her be with you (Unlike others who do not know the Feel of Mother :( )

I am so Grateful to God in more than one ways, firstly for giving me such wonderful Parents and secondly, when i missed my Mom, he sent me my Mother-In-Law in the form of Mother and ensured i was never left alone from his blessings. Thank you Sooo Much.

My Mother-in-law, though the association was pretty short we were connected through Heart. She helped me learn the basics of cooking (which i never bothered to do when Mom was teaching me, coz you know mothers let go us when we are not interested but it becomes a responsibility post marriage :)) Initially, she was apprehensive about my cooking but within a day or two she saw the quick learner in me and appreciated me and my cooking though it was not upto mark by saying you will finetune with experience. I was reticent and then observed her keenly. I got connected easily as she was replacing my Mother and it made our life easy. Though the duration was small, i am so blessed to get a Mother like her :) God has been standing with me at all times, just that i haven't realized it on time. I will Miss you Mother-In-Law but will ensure i become one such MIL in future. Frankly couldn't resist thinking about my Mother-In-Law on Mother's Day :)

Then i moved on to think about Motherhood, the feeling which has not yet settled in me. As a kid, I use to always wonder why does my mother scold me for all minute things i do or I don't Do. Today, when i see my kid, I do the same :( Reason, coz i do not want him to get hurt with any minute distractions or objects and simultaneously to ensure he learns what is right and what is wrong. Every action of Mine today is a replica of what my mother has done and that makes the bond of Mother and Kid worth appreciating. Probably, today, I teach my son with an understanding to ensure he doesn't get the feel of an Angry Mother which I had during my adolescent stage :) But yes, today I appreciate every thing my mother has done to me to make me stand and say what is correct and what is wrong with a pride. I truly believe, Motherhood can never be understood as it is such a feeling that the more you try to understand the more confused you are.

God has given us a gift in the form of Mother and made us a gift for our offsprings. We need to live up to his expectations and ensure we create good Human Beings :)


Dedicated to all the Mother's out there and to the Newest Mommies in town. Just enjoy the Feel and Cherish every Moment of it.

After Effects of Resignation !!

In today's World where nothing is Stagnant, How can an Organization assume its employees to be Permanent resources until unless an extra effort is put in ?

There are various ways in which a company deals with its employees. We have start-ups, small size companies, Mid-Size Companies, MNC's, Corporates etc.,

How strange it feels to be a part of all of these :P The reason to take up this topic of Resignation is with the kind of experience I had personally met with each one of these organizations.

Boring yet Interesting :) Lets start from the Corporates (easier one to deal with).

Corporates - Post resignation, an employee is made to feel responsible for KT and ensure that the work is handled accurately and handed over to the replacement. Manager's, Friends, relatives everyone is happy if the employee holds a better offer. Simultaneously, they feel sorry if an employee leaves the Organization due to personal issues and render a sweet message to get back to them once they have decided to get back to work.
Its a different question, to What Extent :) Atleast the personal grudge is not maintained as everyone is aware that the world is pretty small and you might jump into each other any moment. So maintaining cordial relation is the Key.

Mid-Size Companies - Employee resigning due to Personal / Professional reasons is treated the same way. How ? Well heres that. Until an employee  hasn't put down the papers, he is treated as a core member (Not less than God - using this to get accuracy). Bad Fate and the Papers are down, every other manager gets serious and starts pointing out on even the minute mistakes which were once never a matter of consideration.  Starting from Attendance to No. of hours put at work and not taking the Job seriously. They go to an extent of specifying is your brain in place ? Why do we feel that you are out of your mind :P What the Hell ??????

They do not just punch your Ego but Humiliate you to such an extent that you start pitying yourself for being a part of the Organization. :( They start eyeing away from you and make you feel as if you have done something really wrong.

Let me quote an instance here: Unfortunately, two of the employees in my Organization put down the papers (One Android resource & other Java resource). They stopped talking to these guys and insisted on me getting to know what is it that they have in mind. Part of Job, you should be ready to do this and thats what was done. As a mediator the message was conveyed to the Mgt., It was strange to know that these guys were retained in the Organization (Strange - Why ? Coz i was informed that they are the non-performers and not doing good at work. They have no idea of what they are doing and our Project is not getting benefited in any way) What the Hell ??????

Somehow, My opinion of Mid-size Organization has changed now and i'm Thankful that i realized it early :) and Hopefully this message will reach the right Lot !

Now here comes the strangest part of the Companies, The Start Ups / Small-Size Companies: Loads of Investment into the Venture, they need the World Class Professionals on their Side. Ready to offer whatever is expected and then starts the humiliation :)

Why i say Humiliation ? Well, if the employee stucks on some technical front, they start backwards - You worked with CMM Level Organizations and we offered you xxxxxx amount to get this work done. We are paying more than your expertise blah blah blah.......... What a Humiliation !!!! Hats Off !!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately if the employee decides to put down the papers, they get onto the Notice Period. You have to serve this notice and trust me that would be the hell of a period You would never forget in your Life time :) It just doesn't stop here, the BGC is goofed up.

At times i feel, probably that's the reason why many of the employees just avoid specifying few companies in their profiles to avoid this kind of Goof up again :)
