Job Available

in these times of recession aren't those like the two best words only topped by the other two words 'you're hired'...gone are the days when three worded phrases meant all in life...

this is the age of career people and workaholics...

and that is exactly what we are looking for...

WANTED

a 'hot momma' for a 26 year old mama's boy...pampered since birth...fed breakfast in the morning...lunch packed for office...comes back from gym get freshly squeezed juice...weekend gets nice oil massage...u get the picture.

The original mama has done enough for the young 'laadla' and now its time for the baton to be passed on to a young, energetic woman...who is foucssed about her career and won't leave a stone unturned to pamper the chap in question...its a 24/7 into a lifetime job and we are looking for dedicated workaholics...

This is hard work and hard work calls for top notch compensation...for all your pampering and care...we promise to....ermm...love you back...in these times of devaluing currency the only currency that still holds good (equivalent to cash in hand)...and to pamper you more than you pamper us (equivalent to CTC...hope u know what this means :P )...and to treat you like a princess...

plus to keep you engaged and provide you variety (and some oopar ki kamaee)...you can also work in the industry of your choice...

When i was born my mama said...I'll love you so much that no woman will ever be good enough for you

(ok my mom didn't say that...i borrowed that line from friends, when monica gets her adopted baby)

So 'Do you Have it in You...

... to be the Hot Momma'


(Inspired by Anu Malik...i've been taking inspiration from other people's quotes...in this case the Indian Army)

p.s. for the feminists who are about to blow their lid off...this post is only in good humor, we appreciate women in the boardroom, other than bringing some smart wit, hardwork and a different perspective, they also bring some life to the dreary place.

It is inspired from a friend who is actually a 'workaholic' and a highly succesfull career woman...i just wanted to see how we could take the word and twist it around in another context...

as a personal opinion...i always believe in a balance between the home and work place...a full dedication to both the work and the family...and like everyone else...i'm striving to reach that golden balance

Women's Day

Ok first...please don't get unnecessarily ruffled by the presence of Invader Zim...he can be overwhelming...but he's the life of the blog...and even if he means harm...am sure u won't mind getting a little bit infected by craziness...

now where was i...well nowhere actually...except that the other day these client people celebrated Women's day...how nice of them...except that they didn't offer the customary samsosas that one gets accustomed to with such events...classy people...buggers...no samosas...

neways they did get good speakers...there was a lady Joy Deshmukh who works in the field of microfinance for women and is an economics researcher...she spoke on the 'care' economy and the 'market economy' and one of the few people who i believe have sane ideas on women's liberalization...her idea of gender sensitivity went beyond empowering the woman but to how both men and women need to break away from ingrained socializations and develop a new world order...

then later in the day and to my dismay no samosas (not even classy pizzas) again...damn them....they had Barkha dutt have come and give a talk...mostly about her own experiences...

btw the buggers were very enthusiastic about asking questions....didnt have many back benchers...good show i must say...btw this client really puts its money where its words lie...they have been on an aggressive diverification drive...and have been hiring women like crazy since the last two years...am sure the men in the organization appreciate it...

so now to why i blogged abt the damn event...one to lament the lack of food items...two because its a reality that our society hasn't woken up to in full extent...that the changing role of women in the society has to be treated on a broader perspective and unless we do that...the rate of divorces or latch key kids won't go down...its not just about women in the work place...its also about men in the home...and a whole lot more rebalancing of how things work

actually things dont work...now i think of it...damn but thats another post....

that reminds me...its almost two...lunch time.... :)
