The story of a raise….and a party thereafter.

By | May 30, 2005

So here it goes…

Once upon a time there was a raise..that took forever to appear.

Well thats the sad story folks. The raise announcement has been delayed to third week of June, and it will be effective from June’s salary(that’ll appear in July)..so summers ‘ll b probably dry.

All this due to some ‘delay’ on part of our managers. Well it shud be a fair game. If I work overtime to avoid delaying my work, shudn’t they do the same?? This is a forbidden question, I know…but still…it’s gotta be asked.

But as they say, every cloud has a silver lining. So the lining here is that the incentive is going to come in may salary(that’ll come day after tomo)…

So i’m still game for a small party(possibly at someplace in ggn), once the incentive arrives. and for my friends not in delhi, well guys n’ gals..its just gotta be when we meet…

adios

    well,

    Business World doesnt differ much anywhere, does it? LOL….

    I always wonder if its all about people management for the managers as their work, why the hell the appraisal cycle never once falls within the timespan it is meant to be? What else do the managers have got to do while we sweat our ass. Isnt it what they are supposed to sweat theirs too?

    Ah, mean men, huh?
