Mourning at times of Recession!



Why do I have to head towards the horrible office every morning, even though I don't like to? Why do I have to slog up to the 5th floor (no elevator) on foot everyday? Why do I have to maintain the mandate of 10 working hours every single day? Why do I keep mum even when my boss yells at me? Why have I almost given up meeting up my friends and all since I do not get the time due to my office services? Why am I writing after so long? Why can't I leave my job even though they are paying peanuts? Why am compromising on my weight loss?

Why do I have to read in the papers every other day that some or the other guy or girl has committed suicide for fear of job loss? Why do I have to see thousands of pay cuts and pink slip stories every alternate day? Why does the little daughter of our maid, have to compromise on her studies and wash dishes because her father has lost his job and doesn't see any sign of regaining it or getting another one? Why have the cable channels gone off air suddenly from yesterday (they say its due to the bad times)?

Is recession having that bad an effect chain? It is. Everyday I wish I could quit my job or rather get a new/better job. Everyday I wish to see positive developments in the world economy. Everyday I wish no more people commit suicide for the scare of losing a job.

Yes. That's what can do be quiet and wish for something better .

    Be happy with what you have got now and enjoy that…..find happiness within yourself…….then you will be disgruntled the way you have put down in the blog.

    its actually a horrible time but u cant do nethn but be patient and hope for sth better… in india, its more of a psychological recession and hopefully that will die out sooner..
