Slavery- Modern format of corporate life.

Someone once said: slavery works better if we don’t mention it.

Our corporate society was smart enough to pick up that catch and we are busy innocent enough to not notice the perfect sense: A big applause to the democracy and socialism.

Forget about what is happening around the globe; let us stick to our beloved nation India.

I agree the fact that democracy and socialism plays a major part ­­in the society and to help people make comfortable living with society. What will happen if the comfort becomes necessity, needs substituted with demands and conditional becomes unconditional? The whole cycle changes giving rise to a certain loops which are inevitable like a closed maze. One tries to figure out by moving inside the loop knowingly or unknowingly by not willing to accept the real fact and living in an Illusion that it comforts us.

We are sustaining in this world by getting paid for what our master (corporate hierarchy superior) commands us in the formal name of ‘work responsibility’ (following institutional ethics or the vision of the company which we are working like a lame ass) which obviously doesn’t differ much from the western slavery.

The only difference is no one will point us out with the name of ‘slave’ but simply we wear a tag of slave which is camouflaged. This way of perception will comfort ourselves with the sense of confidence and can produce better outcome with this esteemed confidence of ours and encourages our superior to bait us more for his overall personal profit. Wherever we go and anywhere you take the whole theme is same with the difference in operating levels: Slavery.

Some poor fellas found the myth behind this whole reality show of ours and tried to correct it but left in vain. In other sense they tried to correct society but left in resetting themselves. Hilarious though, but still it is the fact.

They did change themselves but remained far to the society with name of nerds, traditional and pals who are fear of accepting change.

This society is not at all pity towards them, but afraid of them, afraid of the outcomes if the whole nest got open up with the help of the same nerdy group, traditional bunch who were abandoned by so called society of educated , intelligent, wisdom, knowledge accustomed people referred as corporate society.

The path of fear is absolutely valuable as we are already in the socialized state and the smallest change in the system will create lot of disturbances and we are not ready to welcome those disturbances.

In a controversial thought or in a lateral idea is that, what if this stabilized is the only source of our entire existence for our living and in worst case for mere existence.

Then the difference between machine and man will be nullified according to Einstein.

A small chat with a 5 decade bank employee..

Caution: Little patience required...!!!!

One day I went to a bank to deposit amount into my friends account, I took a slip and filled it after a hard research of banking terminology and was wandering inside with an ambiguity of where to go as there are few customers or no waiting lanes for cash deposits or withdrawals as it is closing time where sun is ready to kiss the land.

I went straight into a cabin with 3 closed sides besides to the other clone with some common banking stuff on them. Both the cabins are empty and I am waiting with anguish as no one showed up even in the private sector backs which are well known for their customer services.

A person in middle 50’s with height resembles to the south Indian with an incremental circumference around his waist when compared to normal one, a round brown coloured frames for his thick glasses, neatly tucked in his shirt walking slowly with a compassion on his faces showed up. Sat in his chair comfortably and asked in a tendered tone “what do I want?”All my previous thoughts evaporated with that question and substituted with the thought of “ohh!!! Yeah I wanna rob this bloody bank and I need your permission to do that” .I compressed all my bewildered ideas with a smile and showed the slip which I have filled earlier. After checking the slip he explained me some technical terms for the reason of not accepting the online deposits at that late time. After seeing his explanation, I grabbed a confidence that my work will be done but I have to acquire little patience to listen to whatever he says.

He asked me what I am doing, I replied with a sense of concern that I am doing my final year B.Tech. He asked me whether I am computer science student. I nodded my head with a no and told him I am an ECE student. He raised an unexpected way of question; will you get a job with your degree certificate after the completion of your degree?

With a tone of hesitation I said ‘Yes, I will get jobs but mostly not in the field which I have studied all these 4 years ’

“Forget about stream, In general will you get a job”?

Then I came to my senses about a job letter of mine from a company which I already have, and told him the same.

After a 15 min conversation I have seen a wide smile on his face and he heartily congratulated me. Literally I was surprised because no one have done that to me I mean not with that intention and happiness even my parents.

After a couple of seconds astonishment  I told him that the company I have placed is a software company which is completely out of my ECE domain and gave him a hint that I am interested in further studies. Then he inquired about the salary package, I told him and again triggered about my idea of pursuing higher studies.

He asked me whether I am interested in his suggestion, I replied with an emphatic Yahh.!!!.

“In this present scenario, if you have placed in any company; be it a software, core, marketing, forget about the package they are offering you, Please take that with golden hand, never ever abandon the job in this market situation”

He added his opinion that, “in the coming decade, youth is the driving power of nation. The white and golden coloured hair people time has gone to the extinct line, You are the demanded people in any sector, just imagine the competition, if the industry is ready to provide equivalent opportunities to you then India will definitely shine like sun.

What if the resources and needs don’t compensate the youth number? With that question, I was dumb struck for a moment, he then clarified me that “the revolution will start with rebellions formed my youth who are educated striving not for freedom, not for democracy of country, not for the justice, not for religious or constitutional issues but for mere ‘existence’.”

(He added some political things here which I have skipped.)

He waved a goodbye to me with a satisfied smile like an innocent child who got what she wants after a 15 min pampering.

As a matter of fact, I was literally shocked while retiring to the parking area and the realization started like a slow poison.

I thought India is going to experience changes due to the youth driving force but not in this direction of the evolution of revolts for survival. Till now we have been invading ourselves with an idea of what to do? What to change? How to do? How to change? How to evolve? All these self questing without the thought of second person i.e., without the primary idea of competition.

Now the thought provoked. How to compete with the mega driving force? Where we will stand in the middle of rebellion or against them or a simple visitor in this whole act? What we have to do in order to choose any of above scenarios? In a general sense what is the form or stream of employment we choose in order to avoid any offensive outcomes is still a question to me.

P.S: Just a personal opinion.
