Let me also make this blog a space where the people who have so far stayed protected from corporate world can get an insight into the fundas of this world and what a strange world this is!!
First of all the insistence on use of abbreviations just gets to me EOD, COB, PFA, PDA, the lsit just goes on man! (well for the blissfully ignorant ones: End Of Day, Close of Bussiness, Please Find Attached, Please Download Attachment) phew!!!
Secondly, today I learnt that that most of the stuff that is talked about is pure english, but the actual stuff which mostly doesnt happen is Hindi...... didn't get it na.... i know I was also wondering what on earth is going on, then I was very patiently explained that english means just funda, concept, good packaging, great power point presentations, portals, posters, basically just faff and talk. While on the other hand Hindi is the bottom level, actual, hard core stuff. So in the corporate world you need to be clear about what is being expected of you and what is being given to you english or hindi!!! truly a learning for hard core hindi like me!!

I still don't get it......what about work, pure and simple work.....getting things done, pushing papers, meeting deadlines, vision, mission, larger goals and all that jazz
All that my dear is Hindi, but just talk, funda is english and sometimes the mgmt expects u to only be superficial and do english so the idea is to be able to recognise that, sell your idea in english and deliver in hindi, whcih is what i am going to do!!
Hmmm.....good idea.....lady you would do great in Marketing
