The Ghadiyali Chomu Master and His Char Bandar-numa Chamchas

This is the story of the ghadiyali chomu master SV.

And his chomu harkatein.

And, also, of his char bandar-numa chamchas - KM, ST, PP, SR.

SV is short, stodgy and short-sighted.

His only achievement till date is that he has created and cultivated char bandar-numa chamchas.

And if you were to poke SV a little bit, he would howl and growl and say, "the char bandar-numa chamchas only matter to me, let others go to hell".

Despite the absurdity of the whole situation, the despicable chomu master SV continues with more of the same absurdities that make him even more despicable.

He is fond of or rather besieged of his own false image and hence indulges in showing off.

He would utter all the right keywords and do all the symbolic stuff to appear as a genuine and caring person.

However, on scratching the surface, the real object behind the false image comes out.

He is the opposite of all what one would consider as fair, transparent and genuine.

He talks of ethics and empowerment but does all kinds of absurd things like:

• Suggesting that you write falsehood in e-mails to customers and vendors
• Facts are misrepresented or blatantly modified in the name of negotiation
• Data and information are twisted maliciously to create fake impressions
• Dropping/parachuting a trainee into your team without discussing first with you.
• Competency and fitment aspect is bulldozed to the ground.
• The trainee has no background other than her connection with the chomu master.
• Indulging in initiatives only for symbolic reasons.
• Initiatives are started without wider consultation and stakeholder involvement
• The people with no real work are made to drive such initiatives to make them relevant
• Humiliating competent professionals through "chomu harkatein"
• You get emails like "copy my chamcha" or "as advised keep my chamcha in the loop"
• Activities in your area are assigned to a chamcha to disempower you

The companies that are managed by a chomu master also become chomu companies.

They are what one can call as a "chotu company" which will remain like that forever.

The reason is not hard to see.

The chomu master and his char bandar-numa chamchas want to retain complete control.

To hell with empowerment.

Chomu master is a con artist.

Employee empowerment is a good term to hear but means nothing in such organizations.

If you work in such a company, be ready to embrace absurdities.

You will be humiliated often.

Yes, that's right.

Humiliated and dis-empowered.

While you are going through all this non-sense, you must learn to enjoy all this from a distance too.

Keep laughing at the ghadiyali chomu master.

Keep laughing at the char bandar-numa chamchas.

Just keep laughing.

After all you are getting entertainment for free from the chomu master and his char bandar-numa chamchas.

Don't take them seriously at all.

Don't become serious yourself too.

Just keep laughing.

And laughing.

And laughing.

As Was Expected, The Top Dog Barked Yesterday

The top dog, S, the biggest CEO, oops... clown, in the best company C, oops... circus in the town, barked yesterday.

He did not like his boot-licking, pet she-puppy, K, getting troubled.

So he barked.

Loudly.

And then he called out one of the stooges, the greatest manager, oops.... clown, monkey P to come to the rescue mission of K.

The whole scene unfolded exactly as was expected.

In a Lala company what else can one expect?

The bait did work.

The experiment worked quite well.

The communication done purposefully to provoke the she-puppy and her master had the intended effect.

The she-puppy was furious.

And went on a rant, good afternoon sir, and then blah, blah, blah.

The she-puppy once again proved the same thing about herself - lack of transparency and fear of her lack of competency getting exposed.

For K the S thing is the start and end of the world.

She thinks she has found a way to attain niravana through S.

Her and her master's approach is completely bull-shit or, rather, dog-shit. 

The top dog grunted, please discuss with J as she is the owner and driver of S.

As if there is nothing else left to worry about than S in the world.

The top dog is in  pursuit of another symbolism, this time related to S.

He and his HR henchman and other stooges keep on doing one or other drama every second week.

Sometimes there is an idiotic campaign on trust, then on empowerment, then on fairness, and then on transparency, and then on something else.

This all is a merely a big facade to cover-up the dark reality.

Speaking of trust, the top dog, then went on further and growled, please keep P in the loop.

Trust? Empowerment?

What trust? And what empowerment?

The top dog publicly and deliberately and maliciously humiliates those who do not lick his boots like P, K and the other stooges do.

And who is this P?

What competency this P has to speak on E?

What value is he supposed to add?

No one, none and nothing.

He is there only because he is a stooge of the top dog.

And by the way, the top dog has reared a huge group of stooges - S, K, S, M, G, S, P, and so on and so forth.

That is the real achievement of S.

The top dog has a fetish for getting popular in the industry.

That is why he runs after every chance to appear in this conference and that conference.

He wants to be the best CEO ever.

He knows though he is nothing.

It is okay he is what he is.

But he should stop putting up the false facade of trust and transparency.

He also has this despicable habit of doing stupid things.

Like having two people stay in the same room while on an official outing.

Such a thing doesn't happen in a proper and professional company.

However, in a Lala company what else can one expect?

Another day, another silly thing.

This will go on.

And on.

The top dog will bark again.

Just wait.

And enjoy.

Why?

Since in a Lala company what else can one expect but some kind of non-stop non-sense.

So better enjoy!

Why Death is the Ultimate Destination that We All Share and Why We should always Keep this in the Mind?

What is blessedness and bliss?

What is joy and happiness?

What is exuberance and ebullience?

What is exhilaration and elation?

All the above reflect a situation when a person is in a state of mind which is just opposite of being in the below state of mind:

• sad and sorry
• or low and down
• or lost and helpless
• or desperate and hopeless

So, how to be truly blessed and totally blissful?

The answer to this lies in just one word - death.

Death is the only thing that is true.

Death is the only thing that is there at the very end of the journey.

Death is the actual destination we all are constantly travelling towards.

Death is the only thing that really matters.

Everything we do, and do not do, everything we say, and do not say, everything is immaterial when it comes to death.

Whether you do something or not do, you will be dead one day.

Whether you say something or not say, you will be dead one day.

All the kings and emperors, all the accomplished artists, all the strong and the powerful, are nothing when they meet their death.

All the poor and pauper, all the notorious folks, all the weak and the pawns, are also nothing when they meet their death.

Whatever you may become in your life, and whatever will become of your life, is at the end, absolutely inconsequential.

The only thing one ought to do is to focus on living life, one day at a time, one day, next day and the next till you drop dead.

You being dead would not change anything and has not impact on the way the natural world operates.

You were born as a biological being and you will eventually die as a biological being.

Human beings are no special as far as the creator of the natural world is concerned.

Though human beings have somehow acquired this impression that human race is controlling the world.

We catch and put other animals in what we call as a zoo.

And as we build a zoo, we think that we are the supreme power running this planet.

This, however, is a naive assumption that we would like to think of as the most important truth.

That is, however, not a truth at all.

We are nothing.

Very simple.

Let us not think otherwise.

One earthquake here, one Tsunami there, the above assumption is knocked off its feet instantly.

We are there at the will of the natural world.

In all this chaos, knowing that we will be dead one day, gives us the right and the ultimate perspective.

We were dead for eternity and will again be dead for eternity.

Whereas, we are live for some time only.

So, never forget and always keep in the mind.

Death is the ultimate destination that we all share.

And he who always keeps this in the mind is truly blessed and totally blissful.
