Australia - Racist ?

Now Australia is in the News for all wrong Reasons. Guess what ! the most peaceful country in the world has now been branded as a Racist Country by the Asians living over there. But something tells me from the various inputs received ,Australia is not all to blame for.

Australia has education as the third biggest source of income and is really building its base on the foreign students who fly down from across the world mainly from Asia. Having said that can they really afford to be Racist is the question that comes to mind.

Australians are no doubt a mixed group of people with various levels of education and majority of them are really assertive (unlike Indians) no matter what their level of education is. This being the case how do our Desi guys conduct themselves in a foreign land is also a thing to ponder.

For instance, Desi's form large groups on streets and keep talking loudly ,blocking the path and Australians find this really awkward and unlike Indians being assertive they come and tell the group to move out of the way. If the group replies with an air of arrogance or says something conveying "mind your business" then the Problem erupts there..!!! Certainly this is not Racist and there have been several incidents of this type. At the same time I also feel that Australians also have a nature to look down upon the dark skinned and pass unwarranted comment to provoke them. So my judgement is wrong acts do exists on both sides and hence a change in mindset is all we need to solve problems of this kind from emanating in the future.

That is some hypothesis you have built up, true we cant brand a nation racist due to some stray attacks but considering the diversity of the population and the economy in dire straits there was always enough wood to fuel this...whats with using "their" for there?..twice

Winning your boss

As I was observing on the Process of Appraisals that were going on in my new Organisation, it brought about the subjectivity that is present in the system. The only way to come out in flying colors is, be a pet to your Boss and reap rich dividends. Though the companies claim about the various thought process that has been put forward in designing the appraisal system, it all boils down to the previous line you just read. I know a guy who always came out with the best score possible during the appraisal not because he did a great job but for his attitude to tasks given by his Boss. I do not claim that he is a person who just thrives because of the "pet" tag , though he does pretty decent job. But if you consider his peers who do the same "decent" job, they somehow end up lower than him. WHY ? Again it is how he presents himself to the boss...Watch below some of his action. Never disputes the idea told by the Boss. Can always spot some think good in the Worst of ...

Ghasi - Hollywood Class

Film Ghassi was another film which really is a class apart from the run-of-a-mill movies. The entire film is shot within a Submarine and the plot is the Indo-Pak war under water in 1971. Viewer watch with bated breath as the story takes you through one sequence of attack after another. Its based on real incidents with how the Indian submarine inspite of losing its captain ,still fought valiantly. This is once in a blue moon kind of movie and matches the class of Hollywood mo vies frame by frame. Score: 4.25/5...extra credit for just the plot and the storyline.
