Its been 4 months!
Its been four months since I last updated my blog … seems like forever. I do have lot of excuses; you can consider them lame but there are some reasons, on the top being “My Job”
Its been crazy nowadays. I never would have thought that my whole life will just become job, job and job; doing job, worrying about job … leaving late from work; working on weekend! its like my whole universe is circling around work.
Now the point has come that I have started thinking ‘is it really worth it!?’
*Thanks a millions to God what Je has given me, but I have got the right to think*
Is it really worth it to dedicate this all time for work? Am I getting in return what I really deserve? Its not about financial pay back … its about what I am getting as a human being, as member of society or as a family man. Or or what am I giving back to society!?
Is my whole dedication to work just for greedy corporate world. Just imagine … *I dont want to be big mouth* but … I or we as corporate slaves work for hours just for the benefit of big corporations; our work make them millionaires and all we got is little pocket and they also take our LIFE from us.
May be I am being too sensitive or exaggerative but even the corporate culture is changing now; going from bad to worst. Because of financial crisis, more education, more man-power but less jobs has made this corporate world a living hell. Now its not about keeping your employee happy for the productivity of company; now its about threatning them to loose their jobs or die with hunger if you dont work for them.
I dont know why I become engineer but I know it was not for feeding these couple of corporate giants literally ruling the world.
May Peace, Love and Justice prevail in this world.
Note: This blog was updated while lying in bed and trying to sleep thinking of job tomorrow … so never mind
I often come to your blog and read your previous posts – you did surprise me with this one.
Good points you have made around the corporate world. Often, I use to ask myself the question: Do I live to work or work to live? But unfortunately I am still seeking the write answer for me.
That said, I think its important to multi-task in the sense that you not only have a job but you have another source of income (i.e. small venture). There are no rules, although we are led to believe there are. So why can’t one work in a job but yet be involved in small ventures in the hope that one day, these trickle of experiences will merge into something big.
