Work from home..

I've a very strong feeling that the usage of modern technology will take India to the next level. The sooner we implement, the better for country..
These days Work From Home culture is a reality. In India, some MNCs and Indian IT companies have adopted this culture. However, majority of the chunk have not yet adopted.

Let us understand how the 'WORK FROM HOME' culture can be implemented in all the iT companies:

1. Work: People can work through VPN connection using office laptop.
2. Meeting: By using dedicated bridge, all employees can attend meetings through phone.
3. Presentation: Many softwares are available e.g. 'Windows Meeting Space' can be used for any kind of online demonstration.
4. Video conference: SKYPE can be used for video conference.

Advantages:
a) There will be less traffic on road
b) Less cubicles are required in office space
c) People will save money from fuel expenditure and many more..

Disadvantages:
a) Initial infrastructure cost e.g. providing laptops to employees
b) Some job loss in the ancillary area like cafeteria, transportation staffs etc.

It's a matter of pracitising.. If we'll practise, slowly we'll adopt to the WORK FROM HOME culture. Overall, it's a win-win situation for both employer and employees.

Thanks,

Nice thought. But I feel this will not be fruitful on day to day basis. Yeah we can adapt this once or twice a week but not everyday. The reason behind this is:

1) After you work 9 to 10 hours in office you come back home and feel relax. If you spend the whole day at home; again you will feel like running out of home.
2)If you go to office you will learn and gain lots of things like dressing sense, how to converse, how to present yourself etc etc.
3) In office we not only talk about our work but also on other topics in that way we will gain more knowledge on other spheres also apart from our work. And also learn how to socialise which will be less if we sit at home all day.
4)The very true disater which you have mentioned is many will lose their job and many will not get the job. If their will be no infrastructure there will not be any construction. And if there is no construction then what the labors will do ??

The solution for traffic jam is not to work from home but a better road plan, to make the road wider and a good strategy to divert the traffic. And there should be reasonable density of population in every city and town.
We should now focus on small towns and villages so that people would love to stay there and be happy with their work.
Hope you would agree with me.

@Lopa,
I completely agree to your point that this is not for everyday.. However, the work from home culture can be implemented with some protocols.. like the employee can take N number of days as WFH.. Also it should be implemented on role wise..

Thanks!

Rameswaram Trip, TN - Char Dham, Jyotirling & 22 Kund!

Rameswaram Trip - Har Har Mahadev! Trip Date: Nov 5th and 6th 2022 Distance from Bangalore: 611 km Time taken by road: 11 hrs Road: NH 44 and NH 87 - Road condition - Excellent Rameswaram is a town on Pamban Island, in the southeast Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It’s known for Shri Ramanathaswamy Temple, a Hindu pilgrimage site with ornate corridors, huge sculpted pillars and sacred water tanks. Devotees bathe in the waters of Agni Theertham, off the beach east of the temple.  Lord Ram and Maa Sita had consecrated the Jyotirling at Rameswaram after killing Ravan while returning back from Lanka. 22 Kund Snanam or Theerth Snanam: 22 Kund Snanam starts with Samudra Snanam at Agni Theertham . It is believed that the first kund/theertham lies submerged under the sea and hence the snanam ritual starts from taking a dip at  Agni Theertham . Agni Theertham is just walking distance away from the main temple. After the Samudra Snanam it was time for the 22 Kund Snanam. And all t...

UHAULing.... in US...

In this blog let me share my experience of shifting home in America... You have to do the following activities for shifting your home... 1) Buy the card board boxes and pack your stuffs on your own... 2) Rent a truck to shift your stuff from one place to other and you have to drive that truck on your own. That truck is provided by a company called UHAUL. 3) Place all your stuffs inside the truck on your own. So, you have to carry your sofa, bed etc on your own. Therefore, you have to be a body builder to do all these activities. Remember, here there is no human labour to help you out. If you are hiring human labour then be ready to pay a hefty amount. 4) OK... All the stuffs are now packed and placed inside the truck. Now drive the truck on your own. 5) Reach the destination. 6) Unload all the stuffs.... Again on your own... 7) Return the truck to UHAUL (company) and pay the rental... 8) Your shifting is done... Cool..... That's how you have to live in USA. So, life is very easy he...

Chase your passion...

Do you have some passion that you always wanted to do since your childhood??? Yes, I know we all have.. but we don't dare to chase it.. Because in India, we think only doctors and engineers are well respected in the society.. Hence, at any cost we have to become either a doctor or an engineer... Therefore, if you want to become a sports person or a singer or a dancer or a writer etc.. it's not allowed.. So, you sacrifice your area of interest and succumb to the pressure from society and put all your effort to become what your society want you to become.. Ok.. Now you have lived all most half of your life.. and somewhat successful (in career) by seeing your current stature..Your half of the life has gone by... in fulfilling other's wishes and their dreams.. Suddenly you realize that you have never lived for yourself.. I think this is the best time to invest on yourself... to chase your own passion.. to do something that you always wanted to do... I know we all are living a r...
