Sacha Pyar!

Well I am not referring to some old Hindi movie... This is the minto gol ad that I saw recently, where the girl says "mujhe aisa boyfriend chahiye jo ho smart,intelligent aur meri har baat maane"! And there came Rocky, a cute golden retriever, whom I also recall from the Pedigree ad. Though it would seem like a gender bender, it does make sense. Dogs make the best boyfriends ever! well if you omit that part alone...


So I actually thought about this and came with a list on "why dogs are better than guys?"
1. They can't say if you have put on weight!!!
2. They don't keep judging you on what you wear.
3. You can train dogs to do small chores.
4. They miss you when you are gone.
5. They are good at communicating their feelings.
6. Cute dogs don't know they are cute! and so don't brag about it :)
7. Dogs understand what the word "NO" means.
8. Dogs are one of the last forms of unconditional love left in the world...tsk tsk
9. Dogs don't use emotional blackmail on you!
10.They don't watch cricket!


The last one was completely mine!!!!! So looks like I will end up with Rocky and am already looking forward to it :)

Elearning glory!

Said my friend, “If you have worked for Priya, then you will be sympathized, hugged, and blessed for all that you had to go through”.  Yes that’s Priya Gunteeth for you. (surname changed for retain anonymity ...) Gunteeth, I learned has been a hot topic for talk from the Instructional design forums till the Elearning guild because of her victims, which includes me. And if you have worked for 2 years under Gunteeth then you deserve a candlelight peace procession! That is for V@rsh babe.

Gunteeth is one of those typical managers who are good at “covering their behinds”. She is so famous that anyone who has worked in an elearning company, which also has a branch in Chennai will know her. V@rsh and I used to discuss, if we had a chance of revenge how would we do it. I think I will send her to Rakhi ka Insaaf! But the only problem is that she will give Rakhi a complex! 

Though Gun is a distant memory now, she is a ready reckoner for bad managers.

To name a few, it would be:

• Confuse your team
• Rewrite their storyboards in review and tell then they have done a bad job
• If they gather courage and argue, confuse them again!

Phew! Those days were so terrible. Thank god, I got to the other side of the industry!
