Back to the Basics

After a much deserved break, the prabandhan prodyogiki sansthan is again bubbling with familiar but slightly frustrated countenances. The freshmen are now sophomores and are holding-their-horses for bacchalogs to join. After all, its time to vent out all the heat absorbed during the enriching season just passed by. And as our own rebel GuEvaRA says, the sophomores have returned much wiser and ready to dissipate their wisdom.


The so called ‘Summer Training’ seemed to be an overwhelming experience for all. It took no time to realize that its more about the ‘Summer’ than the latter part. The learning did come too, but in unexpectedly hard ways. One thing is for sure, either Mr. Kotler doesn’t know sales or his concepts of sales don’t apply in Indian context. Why the hell he didn’t mention in his so called Bible-for-Marketing that sales require riding on a bike or a rickshaw at 45 degC. And what on earth do the STP concepts mean? My reporting VP didn’t know a-b-c of it but was still dictating terms in the company.


Meanwhile, the Self Appointed Caretakers kept themselves busy during summer with what has now been proclaimed as ‘The Best Job In The Prabandhan Prodyogiki Sansthan’, if not the world. Creating Google docs, inviting preferences and allocating rooms, all in the most democratic and transparent fashion. And there’s much more to come with Perfunctory Dilapidation Process on the cards next week. The Yawning-On-Grass-Aasanas, the relaxing dis-orientation sessions, the out-un-bounds, the uncultured DJ night, all bring such sweet memories and the coming week will surely be a déjà-vu for the sophomores.


A word of caution to you all, as I heard a few kids talking: If you believe that they are not undercharging for food and you deserve a wholesome meal, don’t forget to carry your weapons and ammos to mess from next week. The Self Appointed Caretakers will obviously not to be held responsible for any blood bath inside the mess. Wondering about acquiring resources, earning profits while maintaining your pie of the market share this recession, Prabandhan Prodyogiki Sansthan leaves no stones unturned to tutor you through live cases. Not to mention our own potato farm which is again having good crop this season and the recently acquired dairy and paneer maker to tickle your taste buds once again.


Keep itching friends!!
