Night Shift a Nightmare !!

There is one more night I am going to pass tonight ,it is yet same as the previous countless nights I have spent sitting in my cubicle.It is the same dark dull,drowsy and insomniac shift which I always hated. But God is so kind that he listened my anti-wish and awarded me with this work schedule.Night shifts are the really weirdest,ugliest and scary shift ever made. You loose all the fun people do working in regular shift,you keep dreaming of waking up early in the mornings ,having Bed-tea ,king size breakfast and then lunch in the noon and here comes the EOD (So called End of the Day) when clocks ticks 5pm you feel relaxed start packing your stuff of your desk and with feel filled with delights of spending precious moments at evening tea with your family. The above routine is usual stuff of a regular shift working employee there is nothing special about it,and they don't actually realise the importance of it.Its a fact importance is realized by those who don't have it. This is simple categorized in two categorise Have's and Have Not's.I fall in later one. The day when I joined my organisation I was so glad that finally I would not be working like owls in nights,at least I might be working in Mid shifts which are still tolerable. But as I said by God's grace I was thrown in to Graveyard shift,the shift which every employee hates except those who see it is an opportunity to make more bucks by loosing their normal human life. Working the graveyard shift forces the body to operate counter to its circadian rhythm, the internal clock that tells us when we should be sleeping and when we should wake. Two decades back working in Night shifts was only considered to be the job of a watchman,police officers,Army men,manufacturing industrial units which require 24*7 support. But post 90's after globalization and IT revolution ,Indian employers turned to be ITEeS support industry,which definitely gave millions of jobs to employable graduates,but the other face of the coin is that this rat race of ITeS services made Indian youth more like Service Support providers. We are supposed to work as per Client requirements,we are driven by Clients.This Client-Server architecture is making Indian IT minds blunt.We never think of entrepreneurship,we are happy doing service for clients ,and more happy when switching from one job to another which is a popular culture of IT.

So without diverting from our main topic ,lets get back to the point,that this hazardous shift is gift for many by our so called US counterparts for whom we work sleeplessly whole night. A research also showed that most night workers were unaware of the risks associated with their shift patterns. So there was a clear need for employers to raise awareness of the risks of night working among workers and those responsible for managing their shift patterns and working environments. But fact is that no such organisation does that,we are compensated with meager amount of allowance,for which we sacrifice our regular normal life. Whatever,are the consequences we are succumbed to work like this,as most of Indian IT work is outsourced from foreign clients and we have to fullfill their dependency, because we are paid for the same.So No complaints at all!! This is totally our choice. But still I feel jealous of all those who are soundly sleeping in their cozy beds and I am writing all this crap on my notepad,I should not forget that once I also enjoyed sleeping at Nights !! :)

Total Modi-Fication !!

There is controversy going on among NDA who will be the next priministerial candidate from their alliance.There are many experienced ,educated and intellectual faces in NDA but the only name which is coming forward these days is Narendra Damodardas Modi. Why this has happened that a man who was being criticized by whole country media and government for his past records is now the only one whom whole Nation is counting upon. The sole reason behind this change of current is the stature which Mr Narendra Modi has made n Indian Politics not through fake promises but through his deeds. If you look at the progress report of Gujarat as a state currently it s the only state in country which is contributing highest GDP to the nation. The way he is ruling the state that people elected him twice and given him opportunity to drive Gujarat on path of progress. As soon as he came to power in 2001, he faced one great challenge, the reconciliation and rehabilitation of the areas affected by the Gujarat Earthquake. However, Modi being the man he is, took the bull by the horns. It is here, where Modi’s capabilities were witnessed. Another challenge which he faced as he came to power was Power situation of GUjarat which was grimming The Gujarat State Electricity Board, or GSEB, had posted a loss of Rs 2,246 crore for 2000/01, on revenues of Rs 6,280 crore. Interest costs alone were Rs 1,227 crore. He re-engineered the GSEB , Power thefts were controlled by passing laws,tringent action began against those who ran up large power bill arrears, including disconnecting their supply. Similar acts helped Gujarat to sustain on its own Power supply.




However 2002 was again a bad phase for him ,he has to walk on double edge sword ,communal riots broke out and he allegation were against him from various communities and political parties ,However, there was no sufficient evidence of a single community’s involvement. The after-math of the riots raised quite a few questions against Modi, and some voiced that he should resign,he step down from the post of CM. But again in state-reelection Modi won 127 seats out of 182 assembly seats in 2007 ,he took again took command of state in his hand and implemented cost effective policies ,new schemes & formulated new administrative style. Now Gujarat is the favorite destination for FDI(Foregin Direct Investment) there are major IT compnaies who have made their bases in Gandhinagar, Ahmadabad,Vadodara, surat. Major Auto Giants are also targetting Gandhinagar as is supposed to be Detroit of Asia, auto companies like TATA,Maruti,Peugot ,Ford are establishing their plants in Gujarat. All this has been made possible because of the availability of good Infrastructure and ease of paper work done ,whereas usually in government approvals it takes ages for a project to become reality.All this was made possible by Mr.Modi's style of governance. Not only IT and Automotive Industry ,Modi had rejuvenated Tourism as Industy in Gujarat which helps in maintaining foreign liquiity in state and gives job to milions of people. Modi has stood out of the political crowd mainly because of his passion, knowledge and ability to lead. He was declared by India Today as the Best Chief Minister, a few years ago, and also has a few other honours under his belt. All such factors cumulatively make Modi as the first choice for PriMinisterial candidate he is Bold,dynamic and has leadership qualities to lead a Nation of 120 crores with his strong decisions.There are dislikes against him because of certain allegations but still we don't need a PM who is just a puppet of few hands..we wont be able to find a single political person without any allegations against him. So now the choice is ours whom to choose whom not to, its totally Modi-Fication what India needs now.!!
