hmph!

btw can anyone tell me why hmph denotes anger...seriously...i'd much rather prefer @$%# this to hmph...khair had to fire an employee...first time ive fired someone....dont understan the attitude people have here..they dont want to work hard...generally speaking...im going to make sweeping statements so no offense ppl...i mean i try inspire them, give them incentives yet they dont work hard...i see other "traditional" retailers aka dukaandars abusing the shit out of their salesppl and they get so much out of them....i wonder what mcdonald does...probably pay very well..i had one incident where i wanted to transfer one salesman to another branch...i was giving him a raise yet he didnt want the raise nor the transfer cos he'd fallen in love with some girl in the locality...tht was sweet but i forced him to transfer nevertheless..he was needed..lately this one guy outrightly rejected moving cos he didnt want to commute for fifteen minutes more..again rejecting a pay raise..khair everyone has their majborees and stuff but generally getting quality customer service is hard..its not as if theyre in dead end positions...i want them to improve and strive for better positions...theyve got examples of the store managers i have...they were once salesppl as well...very few if any have the drive or hunger...most are just looking for shortcuts..the only good thing though mashallah is tht my staff might not work as hard as id like they have by and large been loyal...tht is a big plus..!!!

*insert self conscious ahem*. I'm helping two of my friends with OUP publications they're editing on bonded labour. With domestic labour the worst thing you can do is work on the peshgi system (bonded labour in industry gets paid by piece) but the peshgi system affects quality of work and aur pata nahi kiya kiya, loyalty, transaction cost going up etc.I'm sure my mother could have told me that though:P

people are often afraid of the unknown even if the unkown is simply moving to another store or locale. we like the familiar.

Honestly speaking, i am shocked to read your blog-still fail to understand and realize what you have tried to write?
I must strongly recommend you to read, research and than write some thing conclusive and interesting, rather than going on about this typical general Pakistani baqwaas. Dude you have better things to do in your life-than to write about these meaningless issues or else you don’t value time.
Plz no offense but what you wrote was “shit”.

Listen you anonymous asshole, you're the one who seems to have nothing better to do in life, because if you found the blog to be such a load of 'shit' then why take out time to comment on it even. It's his blog, he's entitled to write whatever the hell he wants to and plus considering his blogs name is the art of randomness this particular piece fit in quite well. I for one thought it was quite interesting, considering the general economic state of our people and yet them being reluctant to avail bigger and better opportunities due to seemingly petty concerns. So why dont you 'read, research' and take your shit elsewhere.
