About work

I learnt -

1) If you put your heart in your work..there will be tonnes of people who will tear it out..why do I still do it?

2) Scavengers of the corporate world roam about in disguises.

3) I am never able to say anything mean when the person who has said something hurtful deserves to hear it. I can think of a lot of things to say post the moment passes..

4) Insecure people are worse to work with than arrogant especially if they are your seniors. (maybe its a camouflage of the same emotion)

5) Inertia is a strong word

6) So is money...in fact stronger.

7) I have not yet found what I am looking for in terms of work...but I know that it exists...

8) Not everyone is like you and 98% of people you work with do not realize this.

9) The ability to put yourself in another one's shoe is with just a handful of people and you can always count them on your fingers.

10) You should only leave when you are doing extremely well and not when you are not...

11) You make very few real relationships at work..maybe just a couple and definitely not more.

12) A work relationship is very transactional and hence people give just 20% of themselves to the output.

13) The few people who are able to reach the person beyond just a transaction actually transform lives and make the iphones.

14) Its of no use taking anything from work back home...more work or emotion...all should be left at office before you start that car.

P.S: Now you know how angry I might be currently..Thanks folks that was a fantastic venting out for me
