Some more rants... sorry!
I wonder why things have to be this way. Before the reader reaches a conclusion that I am not liking it here in IIMK, let me clarify - I am. But still, I have a major issue with the way things are. For starters I detest the idea that running of each and every club/committee/SIG is decided, not (just) according to the volunteer's talent, but by a vote. This wouldnt have been a problem but for one thing - a month into the insti how much would anyone know about all? Would a vote for or against a person be correct in such a case? Besides all this is the strong undercurrent of politiking... it doesnt help!
Talking about politics, the conception of friendship here is strange. Most guys (and gurlz for that matter!) are here to build a 'network'. While this may not be a problem at first look, it is. People are constantly making judgements about you - how gr8 a manager you would be, would you become a 'big man', what use you could be of. An oaf like me, with no great skills or talents, usually ends up being a useless 'contact'. With this belief goes any chance that anyone is gonna take you seriously. There are a few expections (they are the ones who keep me here!), but would it be better if they were the rules?
I have many more things to say... someother time, I gotta complete a worthless assingment...

hey dude.... chill man.... i sense a strong under current of negativity.... cheer up... though u r rite to some extent. maybe thats how the world is....
Say them then!
Great to have you back to blogging.
Hmm...interesting actually. One assumes at this end of the rope that it comes with the territory. You get into a b-school esp of a stature that u are in to be on the same boat as the next big thing. You want to be the "next" big thing urself..and that's another matter altogether.
I see to basic forces at conflict in this game. One a grudging admission that ur opponent is actually worthy...say as much as u are or more. So no harm in being pally. And the folly of the other force being..underestimating the other on the counts that he speaks less, interacts less or doesn't have just one supremely great talent to make him/her stand out.. Very Human aint it?? :-)
Still these very people ought to know that the so-called Old boys network has now ceased to operate in the power circle, according to recent studies. And a cause for u to cheer up...coz haven't u seen it somewhere before, that this is not what counts??! :-)
Great to see u back to bloggin...
