interesting answers of Organizational Behaviour

In some subjects it is very easy to fire bullets, and the enthusiasm and creativity of students knows no bounds. There is latent potential in each one and here is a glimmer of the creativity of some; thought to be the black sheep of the class or the class clown maybe. I would like to say that such people are not realizing their potential or maybe they are in the wrong line.

Here are some concepts :

Socialization

Correct answer:
The process of an employee acclimatizing himself or herself to the environment of the organization starting from the induction phase.It consists of 3 steps: pre-arrival, encounter and transformation.

Memoirs of an extraordinary October

Anon, Oct 4 2009

1) When we were having the entrance exam for B.Tech. in the IP university this year in the college, director cheating karwate hue pakda gaya..
He was forced to resign and didnt even tell anyone where he was going next fearing that the politics that is here would follow him there as well.

2)college has gone from A grade to B grade, and it wont be long before it goes to C grade.

3) First time in 11 years that the whole staff had to hold meetings among themselves and with the management because of the atrocities being committed by the management. All of the staff wanted to go for strike(for the first time) but the strike probably wont be there because of the intimidating dictatorship that is ever pervading at the moment. The issues are not even listened to, they are suppressed forcefully.

I am foreseeing a domino effect which would ultimately lead to the college being de affiliated from the IP university or AICTE recognition being taken back if things continue in the same scheme of things. It only looks like a question of time.

ETERNAL DAMNATION...

Anon, Oct 5

HISTORY HAS BEEN CREATED, and i decline to comment whether it is right or wrong. All I can say is that this was the only road left to walk on. There wasnt an option in the matter. For the first time in 11 years since its inception, there is a strike on behalf on the staff and it does not matter if someone is a peon or a professor (there are hardly any professors in the college anyway). A strike in a non government institute is rather unheard of. This had been in the making since the last change in management that was when we were in the final year, and issues have been fomenting now for a few months that have now culminated in this. Now we have entered into a situation where looking back is not even an option. Its an all out WAR now; tomahawks, rocket launchers, AK-47s, flak cannons, snipers, shock rifles, pulse guns, rippers and all. It is high time that the system needed complete overhauling.

"every force you create has an echo.
Your own bad energy will be your undoing"


There should not be any need to explicitly specify who runs and controls the management people. The director was ousted like Tytler was ousted from the congress.

And why does everyone misinterpret my passages? I never said the management is on strike. The entire staff is on strike against the management, or rather the inordinate and unjustifiable exploitation and also the inhuman treatment that is meted out to the staff by the director general, even the ex-paltu kuttas.

Now it is one for all and all for one.

The situation is currently like either the whole staff would be fired or among other things, the 6th pay commission will be implemented. Either way, it is testimony to the zeitgeist which is a stormy petrel, a herald of totally dramatic change that is , and will continue to happen in the times to come.

2012 is around the corner.

Anon,
Thanks for the update.
Its unfortunate that this is happening but i am sure you guys are trying to work for the betterment of the college too.
I heard we have an acting Director after that cheater of a director got fired. How is he handling things?

anon, Oct 5

exactly what is so unfortunate?

That is debatable from my perspective.
When I came into the college then after a couple of months I gave up all hope that anything could be done, but after seeing the events that unfolded today, things can go either way.

Bhai cheater sare hain, its just that that director got caught red handed. The rest of management is more of a thief than him.

As for the acting director, you know him: he is handling like he handled our placements.wo kuch nahi karega.
He is just a figurehead.He is made director only so that he wont interfere and the illegal activities can go on unabated.

The staff is afraid of the director general, but when the acting director tried to break the strike, it allowed people to vent their anger and shrug off their fear. Now lets see what happens when DG comes back.

When Hitler or Mussolini could not last, how could this dipsh** director last?

Trust me it rocks..

Anon, Oct 6

ya
I am doing fine, thanks to you..
kabhi ane ko hoga to mil lenge.
baki kabhi scene banta hai kahin nikalne ka to batao.

Anon, Oct 7

Ya, right.
kuch nahi hone wala.
strike ended (for the time being, nothing listened to). The chairman was playing games on his cell ALL the time the meeting was going on, not concerned in the least. For him this is just a side business.

We are under surveillance for the time being, whereas the management should be under surveillance. Next action would be after diwali only.

Anon, Oct 17

The staff goes back into subservient mode after a majority of them got 10k in their bank accounts as DA. One speaker in the strike gets fired, and no one bothers. The minority (which includes yours truly) gets no pay hike from the ludicruous salary of 12k p.m., but only 500rs as diwali bonus, of which 100rs had to be given back for thanksgiving party.

Akal Sahai.

As of now the college is in C grade. A total administrative failure who talks of quality policy without giving pay to employees.

Life is...

Its been a while since I last posted on this blog, has it not?

So, coming up is an assortment, a hodgepodge, a mishmash and a menagerie of the different definitions of life that I keep coming up with. You may agree or disagree with me , but it is impossible to disagree with logic.

" Life is nothing but a game of probability"

Every event has a certain probability of occuring, and this applies to the events in our life as well. Through our actions, we can alter these probabilities in our favor. we can increase the probability of an favourable event and reduce the probability of some unfavourable event. The altered probability will still never be 1 or 0, it has to be something in between only. So we are playing with the probability.

Say someone is doing engineering, then it is at least 90% probable that he will have a career in the IT industry. The probability increases if he goes with the flow, and can decrease if some unforeseen events occur or the person himself makes some conscious and planned efforts to deviate from the obvious. The change that occurs as a result may be for the better or the worse.
In case of planned efforts being present, the changes so brought forth are bound to be for the better. Then again, how many of us think beyond the obvious?

"Life is a journey in quest of the answers"

The first definition was rather unconventional, this line is more out of the book. The line may be heard of, but how many of us take life in this perspective, much less follow the path earmarked herewith? Doesnt anyone have sufficient curiosity or questioning attitude?

Do you have a defined goal or vision for your future to fuel the fire of curiosity and the thirst of knowledge which acts as a beacon of light while you are on the journey?

"Life is... A Heist"

IPL by Rajnikanth

Rajnikanth is one of my favorite topics for a joke. Others include "sansani"(impersonations), DG jokes and all. And then I always have my repartees with me, especially used on my students. I am putting up a Rajnikanth joke , and may put up more in the time to come:

The scene is the final of IPL series, between the Tamil JumpingJacks and the Mumbai Daredevils. Its the final ball and 24 runs are required. According to eminent and recognized personalities like Albert Einstein, sir Isaac Newton, Thomas Alva Edison , Duckworth, Lewis etc etc, it is impossible. Rajnikanth is on strike. The bowler bowls his stuff, confident of the victory. Rajani hits the ball in his signature style. While the ball is in the air, it splits into four pieces; and all four pieces go for sixes. Its 24 runs!!! The Tamil JumpingJacks win!!!
