My rants, raves and random thoughts: Grade 5 Graduation
http://vgulla.blogspot.com/2013/06/grade-5-graduation.html
My rants, raves and random thoughts. Thursday, June 6, 2013. I was asked to talk on behalf of the Grade 5 parents during Avi’s PYP graduation (Elementary School to Middle School). I am adding here so I don't lose it and can have it to look back years from now. For this, I would like to first thank the Grade 5 teachers - Mr. Aniruddha. Awesome micky. Finally I got tp read your speech. Short and sweet :). June 6, 2013 at 1:54 PM. This comment has been removed by a blog administrator. June 6, 2013 at 1:55 PM.

My rants, raves and random thoughts: Professionalism - Whose job is it anyway?

My rants, raves and random thoughts. Monday, March 7, 2011. Professionalism - Whose job is it anyway? The ' chalta hai attitude. I am just documenting some recent incidents and want to get some ideas/reactions from all of my loyal readers (yes, all 2-3 of them :) ). We ordered wood from a wholesaler who claimed he was getting it from Bangalore and that it will be delivered directly to the site. On the day of delivery, he told us it was on the way and asked us to have people ready to receive by 2 PM.

My rants, raves and random thoughts. Tuesday, August 5, 2014. She lived her life for us and almost made us feel confident that she will always be there to take care of us. Yes, like all the kids we took that for granted. On Aug 4th, when she left us it was clear that she was ready to go only when she was confident that we could take care of ourselves. Little did she know that, I was dependent on every phone call from her and every letter from her to feel safe, comforted and confident. The sparkle in her ...

My rants, raves and random thoughts: The World is Flat, but is it sustainable?
http://vgulla.blogspot.com/2013/07/the-world-is-flat-but-is-it-sustainable.html
My rants, raves and random thoughts. Thursday, July 18, 2013. The World is Flat, but is it sustainable? But would like to bring up some not so often discussed pain points of the so-called Globalization phenomenon and the glamour of working in MNC. Was suddenly the flavor of the season in the early 2000s, one classic example that technology companies quoted was how there was this virtual 24 hour work-day. Imagine a person with a laptop, 1 or 2 smart phones with more than one email account always synched.

My rants, raves and random thoughts: My experiments with being the change
http://vgulla.blogspot.com/2014/04/my-experiments-with-being-change.html
My rants, raves and random thoughts. Tuesday, April 1, 2014. My experiments with being the change. Recently, I have done something that seems like a radical or strange thing to do for most urban professionals in India and even more stranger or crazier thing for NRIs (or returned NRIs) to do. no I am not talking about drugs or mafia. I took the plunge to volunteer my time, energy and brains (the little that I have left) to a political party - Loksatta. My first impression was that, here is a man with a st...

My rants, raves and random thoughts. Monday, September 8, 2014. Work-Life Balance, Lean-in, Lean-out - What I learnt from my maids. At the time of writing this post, google index had 90,20,000 results when searched for "work life balance". My post will be the proud 90,20,001st article. All other issues of "work-life balance" seem to pale out in comparison or become inconsequential. Going back to the case of the domestic maids, I find it very fascinating how that segment is so advanced in some aspects of ...

My rants, raves and random thoughts. Wednesday, May 8, 2013. Tangled in Relationships - Where do they begin and when do they end? While it is not easy to make sense of this setting and understand who is mine, what is mine, who am I, I think it is quite clear by now that while all these people are around us in our journey, each of our. Journeys is different and unique. We are the only ones on our journey. For those that have read, ' Many Lives, Many Masters. But, who cares about this evolution? To me, is ...

My rants, raves and random thoughts: India's Daughter - my thoughts
http://vgulla.blogspot.com/2015/03/indias-daughter-and-what-i-would-want.html
My rants, raves and random thoughts. Thursday, March 5, 2015. India's Daughter - my thoughts. As the news about the Nirbhaya documentary was erupting on social media, I was a bit confused as to what my stance was/is about this. I tried to figure out why the Govt would be against airing it and several things came to mind (some of which I agree, some not so much):. Is it right for some foreign media house to come and interview our victims, convicts etc., for commercial reasons? Is that a good thing or not?
