Oil and Gas

I am currently working in Indian oil corporation. I have 10 years of experience in production department. I want to switch my job and join Axens India? Will that be a good choice? Please suggest.

Day to Day Office

This morning, I walked into the office as usual, nothing extraordinary.
Then suddenly I heard ..................
"This task has been pending for weeks. When I say PRIORITY, I mean PRIORITY!"
 I turn around, the CEO giving a reality check to my manager.

And in that moment... a cold breeze passed. A different level of relaxation.
Somewhere deep inside, a voice whispered: “See... karma is a b*t*ch.”
The sukoon I felt? Haven’t felt it in years.

First time after my joining...I was happy, and the manager was sulky.

And me? Mentally prepping: “Shaam ko daaru khulegi is jashn mein.”

Have you ever seen the same condition in your office?

Sukoon .....when the manager got a reality check!

Recently, i got a new manager in office, a Tamilian. 
Smart guy, good dressing sense, all well and good...
But the real problem?
His English accent.
Now every meeting feels like a decoding session.
“Sorry, what did you say?”
“Come again?”
“Pardon??”
And the major problem is when the call H as HUTCH....!!!!!
Bro, I’m literally attending two meetings at once,  one with the team, and one in my head trying to understand him.
I swear, I’m this close to screaming, “Can you please go learn a proper accent first?!”
Fed up already. 
Do you feel the same when you have South Indian managers? Or am I the only one suffering in silence?

I’m just relieved I got out in time...I was with [Genpact](genpact) till last month.

Genpact wants its employees to start working 10 hours a day 5 days a week...that's 50 hours weekly. And this isn't for a startup or leadership role. It's for freshers.

Entry level roles with 10 hour shifts? are you serious? In 2025? When we’re talking about 4 day workweeks and burnout awareness?

I’m not saying people shouldn’t work hard....we all do. But let’s stop pretending this is normal or productive. Longer hours don’t mean better output. In most cases, it just means more stress, more health issues, and faster exits.

If you don’t trust your team to perform in 8 hours, maybe it’s not the employees who need training.
Or 2 extra hours me koi kuch vaise bhi nahi ukhaad raha.

10 hour workdays? Glad I quit Genpact

**Update**
You guys really did it. Guess I’m unemployed now 😅

From penny-pinching to investing, let's talk money moves that would make Warren Buffett proud.

Personal Finance

I have a high-paying job, solid investments, and I’ve been quietly compounding for years.
But I live in the same 1BHK, wear basic clothes, take autos over Ubers, and never flex anything.

Lately, I’ve started to notice… people treat me differently.
Like I'm "not doing that well."
Some even assume I’m struggling, just because I don’t “look the part.”

I never cared before, but now I wonder, 
In a world obsessed with appearances, does being low-key make you invisible?

why is it that doing show sha is what makes people like you more ?
