This is a very small post and is a reaction to the feelings that emanate when I open by social networking pages and see arbit friend requests. Some crack me up while some make me hate myself when I registered on one of these sites. I am writing about the 3 friend requests I got this morning, people who I do not know and never would want to know in my remaining human life.
- Person name : Prem Diwani
- Reason for sending the request: Not mentioned
- My reaction would be: I can understand the injustice that your parents have inflicted upon you by naming you in the first place. I sympathize with you but I am bad at sharing sadness. Also I dont think you define sadness. Its the sadness that was defined after you.
- Person name : Manu Patel
- Reason for sending the request: Hi, I want to do a CAT and need some tips
- My reaction would be: Hai raam, kya hogaya is duniya ko!! :-)
- Person name : Ramchandra Bhoye
- Reason for sending the request: Remember me?
- My reaction would be: If I would want to remeber you then you would already be in my friends list. If you are someone who I have met just once an you feel I deserve to be your friend, its Ok. I have magnetic effect on people. :-P

Who is the boss?
Actually I make it a point to write something, atleast something once a month. However past 2-3 months have been really bad with long hours, some touring and lack of interest to write...
But some days weird thoughts cross your mind... Today I thought of comparing "A Boss" to "A Wife".
Disclaimers: I have minimal/negligible/absolutely No personal experience of the above. All views are attributed to the powers of observation bestowed upon me by God. All views are penned down as an unbiased external observer. :-P
SIMILARITIES BETWEEN A BOSS AND A WIFE:
- Both get angry when you are late
- Both have a wrong timing of entry
- Both set deadlines for you
- Both like to delegate work to you
- Both generally have no idea what is happening around them
- Both love more money in their hands than they get
- Both point out your mistakes
- Both convince you at the end of the day
- Both can give you at max 30 minutes in the day
- Both help in improving your listening skills
- Both ensure you look a dumb ass in front of them!

हम ऐसे ही हैं
यह लेख जान बुझकर हिंदी में लिख रहा हूँ, वरना लेख से वोह गहराई चली जायेगी...
लेख का शीर्षक है "हम ऐसे ही हैं"
- रात को १ बजे घर लौटे थे हम| चाबी हथेली में दबाए हुए आये थे| फिर भी घर की घंटी बजा दी, ताकि सिर्फ ये देख सकें की आज माँ कैसी है| उसकी एक हलकी सी डांट सुनके सोए जब, तब यह ख़ुशी मिली की कोई है जो घर देर से आने पे हमें फटकार लगाता है| सिर्फ कोई है जो गुस्से में भी प्यार जताता है....
- बचते बचाते गाडी चलाते हैं बम्बई की गलियों से हर बार| पर रफ़्तार १०० के आस पास ही होती है| किसी दिन लोग कहते हैं कुछ कर बैठेंगे हम| हम कहें उस दिन का इंतज़ार करने का क्या फायदा, जो शायद कभी आएगा जीवन में| उस दिन के इंतज़ार में आज को नहीं छोड़ सकते हम...
- बरसात यूँ हमें भाति नहीं, कभी कबार बिलकुल सही जाती नहीं| पर हरयाली जो देख लें अगर इस बार, मन कहता है यह बरसात ग्रीष्म में आती क्यूँ नहीं?
- कुल्फी फलूदा अगर मेज़ पर सजा हो तोह दुनिया भर की आइसक्रीम भी हमें भाति नहीं|
- मैरीन ड्राइव के समुद्री तट पे एक शांत तथा सुकुनदायक शाम अगर मिल जाए तोह उसपर हजारों कलाचित्र वारे जा सकते हैं|
- दोस्ती उन्ही से करते हैं हम जो हमपर और हम जिस पर एक अजीब छाप छोड़ देते हैं|
- ऐसा नहीं की हम इश्वर का ध्यान नहीं करते हर रोज़| सिर्फ मानना यह है की हर जीवित वस्तु में इश्वर है,और हर रोज़ मंदिर जाने से हम लाडले नहीं होजाएंगे|
- कर हर मनुष्य का कर्त्तव्य है| पर उससे ज्यादा जरूरी है की हम अपने साथ कर करने वालों के विकास में जान लगा दें| हम मानते हैं अच्छा नेता वोह नहीं जो हमेशा आगे चले, अच्छा नेता वोह है जो अगर कभी हार जाए तोह उसकी जगह लेने वाला उसने तैयार कर रखा हो|
और भी कई पहलु हैं इस तुच्छ जीवन के जो समय रहते इसी जगह अंकित करते रहेंगे हम| क्यूंकि हम ऐसे ही हैं|

Ek saal...
Well as everyone I somehow completed a year with TAS sometime in June and now I am on a long about 7 days vacation. Its raining in Mumbai and I decided to pen down the some sentences I happened to hear (only hear I repeat) in the last one year in the corporate set up which unfortunately I am a part of...for now at least :-P
* We need to go forward with a strategy... ah ok :-P
* So are you doing anything today?
* It may not be very ethical but we are doing nothing wrong by crossing the line and coming back :-D
* At the beginning of the day I look forward to the lunch
* Smoke?
* Do we have a HR department?
* I and my boss have same feelings for each other... we both hate each other...
* I banged today again... my car I mean... (everyone loffs :-) )
* How did you do that? ... Sir...umm ... SUM(A6:J6)...duh!
* So what is this? ...err Sir...they call it Gtalk ;-)
* I want you to work from home this weekend... sure Sir I am incapable of having a social life outside office... I will oblige :-PPP
* Nice work :-)
* Our country managers are all b@$%#^@s... and we are the fools who placed them there... I agree with you Sir ... :-O
* Hmm so you are listening music in office... Yessar it reduces my efficiency if I don't ... :-D
* See the MD is coming today...if you want to ask too many questions...better make yourself scarce :-)
* I spent 23 years in this firm ... me thinks "what a waste!!" :-)
* We will give you 2 way tickets...choice is yours...u may return from Salt Lake City or Vegas...I don't care :-D
* How can you get caught by cops thrice in 2 months for speeding? Don't you have any self control... :-D
* I am going to China for 2 weeks so you can work from Delhi office ... me thinks "work?"
* This tender we will price it at -3% PBT... we can't afford to lose more... :-O
* So you are from IIMA...I heard you guys are very arrogant and rude... Yessar but people generally don't say that to our face :-)
* So what rating do you want in your appraisal? :-D
* There are still 4 more days to the weekend...bah! :-)
* What food would you like to have? ...Err palatable?
* Would you like to join us permanently? ... :-)))
* You are a aspiring and good manager...I am sure this role is not that challenging but you would surely be interested in it.... Hell NO!
* You went beyond my expectations and completed the project in time.... Saar what exactly do you mean? :-X
* Lets do some cost cutting!
* to be continued...

Kuch khayal...
Some lines I penned down after a long time...
इक पल के लिए रुकेंगे
इक पल के लिए सहम जायेंगे
याद तोह बहुत सताएगी हमें
पर यादों के साथ जीना सीख जायेंगे
हम हमेशा से नहीं सोचते थे इस कदर
कुछ हमारा कुछ इसमें तुम्हारा है असर
ना मानो तुम इस बात को अब से
पर सच तोह सच है ना जाने कबसे
एक वादा कर बैठे हैं हम अपने आप से
याद में तुम्हारी ना बहाएंगे एक भी अश्रु
दिलाएँगे यह एहसास तुम्हें हर दम में
क्या खोया है तुमने अपने जीवन में
इक पल के लिए रुकेंगे
इक पल के लिए सहम जायेंगे
याद तोह बहुत सताएगी हमें
पर यादों के साथ जीना सीख जायेंगे
हम हमेशा से नहीं सोचते थे इस कदर
कुछ हमारा कुछ इसमें तुम्हारा है असर
ना मानो तुम इस बात को अब से
पर सच तोह सच है ना जाने कबसे
एक वादा कर बैठे हैं हम अपने आप से
याद में तुम्हारी ना बहाएंगे एक भी अश्रु
दिलाएँगे यह एहसास तुम्हें हर दम में
क्या खोया है तुमने अपने जीवन में

भारत में हैं मतदान दान|
भारत में हैं मतदान दान
कहीं शर्म शर्म कहीं शान शान
हर तरफ हैं नेता खड़े खड़े
आपस में ऐसे भिडे भिडे
इक लोकसभा का खेल खेल
कोई पास हुआ कोई फेल फेल
जो जीतेगा वोह चतुर चतुर
बाकी सब होंगे तित्तर बित्तर
पैसे की है सब मोह माया
जो बदलेगी भारत काया
बिकता है यह इन्सान अभी
और कहते हैं उसको lobby
रैली में आने की कीमत
एक बिरयानी of चिक्केन है अब
मैं क्यूँ दून अपना कीमती मत
जब की शुरुआत ही गलत से अब?
अब पांच साल ना दिखेगा कोई
देश सेवा में जो सब अब होई
विश्वास उठा है मेरा अब
इस सिस्टम और ड्रामे से अब
कभी दिल कहता है नेता हो जो
या हिटलर हो या स्टालिन वो
मेरे देश को जो कर सके revive
But the grass is greener on the other side
ऐसा नहीं की मैं सिर्फ़ करता सवाल
मस्तिष्क में काफी हैं ख़्याल
पर हर चीज़ का होता है समय समय
जो तय करता है विजय-पराजय
भारत में है मतदान दान
कहीं शर्म शर्म कहीं शान शान...
कहीं शर्म शर्म कहीं शान शान
हर तरफ हैं नेता खड़े खड़े
आपस में ऐसे भिडे भिडे
इक लोकसभा का खेल खेल
कोई पास हुआ कोई फेल फेल
जो जीतेगा वोह चतुर चतुर
बाकी सब होंगे तित्तर बित्तर
पैसे की है सब मोह माया
