Silence of the Lambs........


Have you ever seen lambs in the slaughter houses???

No? ok then i must tell you that if you have to figure out the
tension, agony, pain, fear among them then look into eye of one
of them.................Everything is self explanatory there.

hmmmmm, why am i talking about Lambs, well i am just trying to
compare lambs with humans.

I am placement co-ordinator for the batch 09-11 and this is what
i find in the fag end of day when results are ought to come & all
aspirants sit, stand, totter like lambs.

i won't say that they have pain, agony, fear in their eyes but yes,
FF is there.........Fear of Failure...!!!

Look what they do.......

1. keep their fingers crossed...in anticipation of some luck which
can give them much sought after result.

2. Try to talk about anything which can keep them aloof of the proceedings
but somewhere in the back of their mind, RESULTs keep revolving.

3. Keep sitting, standing in a certain position which they feel, can bring in
some luck....it reminded me of sachin tendulkar who is famous for his chair where
he glues himself up in tense situation of the match, in order to find some luck for
the players on the ground.

4. Even few see towards the door of fortune which encloses the HR people......!!!!

seriously a tense situation, which is followed by cheer from 1 or 2 among them
and.........

and....a mild smile, a half-hearted hug to the selected people!!!

and....little wet eyes which are contradicted by smile over the face..(a tough smile
which is hard to keep)...

and an outburst in the wash room with tears in the eyes!!!!

So near Yet so Far.....!!!

And what is there for me??

certainly a happiness for those who get through & little pain for those who miss out
in the fray.

As it was said in the movie, Veer-Zara, that "kaidi ka koi naam nahi hota, hota hai to sirf number" means a prisoner doesnt have name, he only has number"...

In the same way, For a placement cordinator, a selected student is just a number,
no emotions is attached with him/her atleast at that point of time.

a number which keep getting down.........like 45 left, 44 left n so on....!!!

As the days are passing the pressure is mounting, this is end of November when i am
writing this with absolutely no ray of hope in the tunnel atleast for myself...

Student tend to forget that a placement co-ordinator is also an student n he is equally eager for his/her job. They are blamed for all sorts of things which are
not in their hands. they are accused of many things which they themselves aren't
aware of......

But the only thing which keeps us driving is the cause for which everybody joined hands & planned a happy ending to the MBA programme.

In immortals of Meluha, a book written by Ameesh Tripathi, Shiva keeps his life aside for a good cause which will keep out of denger"............true feeling.

you know when you are given responsibility, then you want it or not, you rise ahead of your personal desires and there is a holistic feel..........

Thanx to placecom for giving me little tough ground to work, which enabled me to think beyond myself and seriously thanx to people there who keep raising the bars & motivating a selfish guy to work for others....others include many people whom i can manhandle if given a chance........ :P joking yaar!!

chalo now, need to wind it up.............

"Silence kills"

therefore,
"silence of the lambs should not stay long,
i wish to see roar of victory around me"

Amen!!!

This is my take on the issue when #China is making mockery of Indian peace initiatives!!

poverty Vs Pragati..............Maharashtra lost the road??

hi friends, i am in mumbai now and certainly i am in the biggest slums in the world...........here people are robots,,,,,running, pushing, slazing .....all sorts of acts and mis-acts are happening here. on one side a pluffy, plush society is there which is having much more than required for their life................on the other there are people who are struggling for making ends meet. i saw on one side people are enjoying the DAY LIGHT at 10PM in sports stadiums (DY Patil stadium) and i found peeple in Parel who are struggling to see some sun light in their slums, chawls in the absense of electricity. the question is not about the diffrerence and the absurd distribution of wealth....but the question is against the civic society which is having plentiful of educated social workers who hail from high society and they do their work just to add up a new feather in the cap.....if i use the banking language, they diversify themselves from just party animals to social workers. anoth...

Have they gone..............or are they coming????

its not about how you die but its all about how you lived....." these words literally fascinate me & make me think of how m i living and what is the best way to depart from this world......... is it the way, a common man dies, across the streets , in public hospitals , on railway tracks , or by a mob in communal riots or by goons who kill in the name of regionalism....... the Martyrs who sacrifice their lives for the nation are the one who should be remembered with respect and regards. but is this the scenario in India? certainly not!!! example (). one army men who lost his both limbs serving the nation in the front was sanctioned a pity 1000 rupees a month as pension. finally in 2010, chief justice of India had to direct officials to serve the person in dignified manner & catagorically said,"don't treat heroes, like beggers". certainly the day these heroes stop rendering their services to the nation, God knows who will save the borders (neta j...
