I had given some interviews in spectramind. <BR/><BR/>When you press the button for lift, machine(indicator) tells you which lift is gonna come next A/B/C/D. Say indicator tells you Lift A is coming down, then by that time lift A reaches ground floor, B,C,D already on floor, people getting in n about to leave other batch.....even if you are first in queue waiting, you end up getting ur lift machine last.....all depends on luck:) <BR/><BR/>n abt the girl, look in the other way (as a friend and not as a emotional / senti chap ).... people might doesn't want she to feel that she is different well an handicap or a dependant....she is just among one of them, an employee. well yeah one should not break queue.<BR/><BR/>I know my statement is rude, but as a gentleman, any female should get preference to go first.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9984584.post-1145984024779352312006-04-25T22:23:00.000+05:302006-04-25T22:23:00.000+05:30Nice analogy to the reservation issue.

But now a look back shows i have been stronger and more matured after going through those phases of frustration.

If you do there are fines. <BR/>As for the people using the disabled button to summon the lift faster. Did someone bother to complain about it the office managment or the office management?<BR/>Maybe an easier solution would be to have an operator or make the disabled button operable with a key given only to the disabled or left with the reception/security so that only disabled people could use it?<BR/>I wish people were kinder to the disabled. It's a humane and the right thing to do.karmichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10973922761187532706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9984584.post-1145976700165399592006-04-25T20:21:00.000+05:302006-04-25T20:21:00.000+05:30jab tak insaan ke andar insaan nahi jaagta, there ...jab tak insaan ke andar insaan nahi jaagta, there should be a liftman by the lift, at least on the ground floor. and everytime someone goes for what's not for them, they should be shouted at, in public. and slowly, it'll be in their blood, running in their veins. fir wo bhi ek aadat hee ban jayegi ... theek kaam karna.<BR/><BR/>-J [teerathyatra]Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9984584.post-1145965770423202222006-04-25T17:19:00.000+05:302006-04-25T17:19:00.000+05:30Well, it is slightly more complicated than that. M...Well, it is slightly more complicated than that. Much as Ram Vilas Paswan reminds me of a buffoon, I was stricken by something he said: Most institutes, including and especially medical ones, have a quota for people to get in through donations. Isnt that then a reservation for the rich? Dont the best schools have the children of the wealthiest? For example, would you have expected the Ambani brothers to get into Stanford or Wharton on merit. Isnt that reservation? <BR/><BR/>Reservation exists anyway; one more for a set of people who are still the most deprived of all is cool with me. Ever wondered what caste the kachrawala in your building comes from - SCs; the people who clean sewers - SCs; who work in crematoriums and morgues - SCs; people who die starvation deaths - STs. <BR/><BR/>Of course, reservations will be misused. Perhaps, your kachrawala's son/daughter will never see an IIM or IIT but it is important that the avenue be open to even 1 among one million of them. I had rather that than some businessman's idiot son/daughter playing doctor-doctor.madhavanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09181881689582469869noreply@blogger.com
