Indian Youth and BPO sector

Published by Gaurav Mishra under india, life

I was always very vocal about the ill-effects of BPO industry on Indian Youth, But the trend seems worsening and the worst of all the belief of Young minds is strengthening on drugs taking culture of BPO sector. In these series of article i will be trying to present a mindset of a very different part of generation -X

On one hand BPO sector helped India inc. to reach it`s shining phase were it stands . Putting some positive inputs regarding BPO sector:-

Outsourcing mania which boomed Indian IT sector was mainly driven by BPO`s , driven by low cost of ownwership of indian workers

BPO sector really depleted the language bareers existing earlier in our country, A generation has been awakened who can communicate with the world without any hiccup

On another hand let me put major issues that i am trying to highlight, adverse effects of Indian BPO sector:-

Irregular Nature work , Process based  professionals, and lack of skillset and innovation is hampering the  whole  bpo generation.

Attrition rate in india is increasing, This will not live long and sooner the bpo sector will see a major downfall , What will happen of current sea of employees.

In Short i suggest all young grads to have a better look at their career, Career never means money, it means money by the way you want

Why people don`t raise voices ? Now i know why :)

Published by Gaurav Mishra under life

I was at Nizzamudin station this morning to say good bye to one of my wonderful friend Saumya to pune. After returning from there i decided to take a short route going round via nizammudin crossing and slums near nizammudin, On reaching the crossing i found it closed so decided to wait for gates to open.

After 5 minutes i realized that no bikers are stopping and were leaning and taking there bike from crossing gates, I decided to wait and count the number of bikes that break rules of not waiting at crossings. In next 20 minutes 78 bikes have passed by (No one stopped and asked the reason of closed gates).

After 25 minutes i was bored and tired seeing all robots just walking, So i decided to go and ask the person handling the gate. The man just frowned at my question and said this is the way it is and didn`t even tried entertainng me (I never know if even he would have heard about customer service , lolz).

I came back and stood near my bike for 2 minutes and then my evil mind decided to take another risk, This railway department stops normal routine of people, How about trying other way round, Let me stop trains that are crossing :D

I took my bike and placed bang in the middle of the track and stood far from my bike and waited for another train to come , with my luck it came in another 2 minutes. I smiled and start remembering my ADM uncle number :)

The train horned and stopped cursing the person, I found the man in charge of gates rushing and putting my bike off track (smashing my side lights) . I arrived at scene and took my bike claiming i have put it there, Suddenly the man is full of energy , the guard is full of energy abusing me and telling me about “kanooni karwahi” :P, I gladly gave them my bike number , my name and told them of two politicians name who happen to be my friends from the day of Y4E , Which made the guy slow . I asked him to lodge complaign , I wish he do it . Because if he didn`t i would be very very disappointed.

Do these guys really care for law ? I saw law enforcement when you disturb wrong doing of government, or when cops want to hurt people, I haven`t saw the world much , But more i am exploring , More i am dissapointed.

Your comments are invited , What would you have done if this would have happened with you ? , Will the world will go this way for ever ? . Sigh.

Back to work, Writing codes is far far better thing ,

Atleast they have a logic !

Update: Here is one story that is coming in my mind, A must read http://karatetraining.org/weblog/?p=867
