And yes, I am talking about an ideal world where people work for as long and hard as they please, are held accountable only for results and stay at home if there no project at Infosys.Mohit Kishorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13389892894396005585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19145661.post-1146821988065536352006-05-05T15:09:00.000+05:302006-05-05T15:09:00.000+05:30dude, you are logical! but logic doesnt work in bu...dude, you are logical! but logic doesnt work in business now does it? <BR/><BR/>take a company like infosys. when theres delivery you spend the entire day , night , weekends everything at infy. but after the delivery where theres lull, you dont get compensatory offs. it doesnt matter if you came to office on weekends or put in 15 hours a day. you cant take compenstaroy off bcoz thats the company policy!!! <BR/><BR/>dude, i would say grow up. all these things sound good in the ideal world.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19145661.post-1146821690296633492006-05-05T15:04:00.000+05:302006-05-05T15:04:00.000+05:30dude, thats ok , but who are you???? ha ha! its ir...dude, thats ok , but who are you???? <BR/><BR/>ha ha! its ironic that this is coming from an anonmyous but hey! i dont blog :pAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19145661.post-1146819477532264052006-05-05T14:27:00.000+05:302006-05-05T14:27:00.000+05:30cant help but nod in agreement, now having shifted...cant help but nod in agreement, now having shifted from a flexiwork-hour-type-of-office to a expected-to-be-in-seat-9-6 i find it such a pain - but ya i do use my own methods of flexi work hours..Swathi Sambhani aka Chimerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01847827658841829629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19145661.post-1145981549111306472006-04-25T21:42:00.000+05:302006-04-25T21:42:00.000+05:30I am a regular reader of your blog.

The assumption is that the higher you go in the management, you actually start managing and stop working.<BR/><BR/>This may not be the case with all industries. Also, we would be missing out those companies whose management cadre works directly in touch with clients. They have to be connected to the office (if not be in office) throughout the day, so that they can service their clients effectively.<BR/><BR/>Of course, the actual job that the manager is being paid for is not limited to the office hours, so your point stands. Under today's competitive condition and peer pressure, a worker is a worker only from 9 to 5. A manager is a manager 24 X 7, or that's what is expected of him. So why force him to be in office?Niravhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04848561844975409918noreply@blogger.com
