Munna bhai MBA !!!
Disclaimer: Boletho!!!!
The first time I ever thought of an MBA. the main reason was I was very dissatisfied with my monotonous life.. I was shit(seems that the word is a lot in favor these days!) angry with my bosses and for once I had decided that its better to do the crap than to bear it!! And there I was on my way into the insti.. with dreams big. I will be a 'Finance guy', I told all my colleagues and frends ( wat eva tht meant!! had no idea of profiles or companies at tht time.. but tht seemed a gud thing to say..so i did!)
The initial days in the insti were real confusing ( not tht life's less confusing now). I was up against a microcosm of the soon to be stalwarts of the corporate world and I took time adjusting!! People here dreamed big and spoke even bigger.. And I felt for sometime like a nobody in this place of who's who.
In the first module, all I did was studying...Arey bhai I had come with an aim...and had to fulfil it at any cost... no sports..no outings..no galssss.... no nuthngs.....
but by the end of tht module I realised tht MBA was a myth... a fart ..a urban legend...and anythng but true....
That time I decided that chuck it.. in a year or so I will be back to corporate life... so lets freak out!! and have neva looked back eva since...
The rest of the MBA was pretty much the same...
900 --- sleeping
900-905 --- O shit... class is abt to start!!... get ready and rush to class
910-140- sleep in class
140- 210----- lunch
220 --- 5 sleep again
5-630--- sports
635--- start discusion for goin out by sendin a group 'DBAB'--" Junta I m getting bored..lets get goin"
640-730---- pros and corns of goin to one place and not the other...
730-800 --- may be bath :)
800 -830 ----- more bakar abt where to go!
830-900 --- wait for ppl ( standing in the crossfire of PPOs :) )
910--1200--- HOGG and feel guilty abt how much we ate..
1200-300 -- movie..
300--400-- soap opera//..
400- start --- sleeeeeeeeeeeep!!!!
Other thn this had a couple pof great outings to places like...
Karjat--- was a ice breaking session for me with the entire gang..
Kashid and Murud Janjira -- What a place to be!!
GOa-- No comments.. the fun was accentuated by groom to be///SHONA// and Manas hysterics//
Matheran...
During summers the entire week went in discussions as to where to go over the weekend... we went far and wide...
Nandi hills, Mysore, Seringapatna,COORG, Hogenakkal falls.... which was follwed by my adventure trip to ESSEL world.. where i played multiple roles.. that of a camera man... bag holder.....personal assistant...etc...for all people who went for he rides :)!
So with this background I entered the corporate world..and had some very intersting... jaw-dropping replies to many a question the corporate had in store for me...typical examples being..
1Q What is ROI....
Ans.. Asleep nearly...suddenly awakened by the question... sir....errrrr.. ya ...
u make investments... u get returns,these returns that u get for the investements tht u make comprise your Return on investment..
That person was so shocked,,,he neva asked me another business related question after tht.
