KIDS TO FEEL THEIR PARENTS,

One young academically excellent person went to apply for a managerial position in a big company.

He passed the first interview; the director did the last interview, made
the last decision.

The director discovered from the CV that the youth's academic
achievements were excellent all the way, from the secondary school until the postgraduate research, never had a year when he did not score.

The director asked, "Did you obtain any scholarships in school?" the
youth answered "none".

The director asked, " Was it your father who paid for your school fees?" The youth answered, "My father passed away when I was one year old, it was my mother who paid for my school fees.

The director asked, " Where did your mother work?" The youth answered, "My mother worked as clothes cleaner. The director requested the youth to show his hands. The youth showed a pair of hands that were smooth and perfect.

The director asked, " Have you ever helped your mother wash the clothes
before?" The youth answered, "Never, my mother always wanted me to study and read more books. Furthermore, my mother can wash clothes faster than me.

The director said, "I have a request. When you go back today, go and
clean your mother's hands, and then see me tomorrow morning.*

The youth felt that his chance of landing the job was high. When he went back, he happily requested his mother to let him clean her hands. His
mother felt strange, happy but with mixed feelings, she showed her hands to the kid.

The youth cleaned his mother's hands slowly. His tear fell as he did
that. It was the first time he noticed that his mother's hands were so wrinkled, and there were so many bruises in her hands. Some bruises were so painful that his mother
shivered when they were cleaned with water.

This was the first time the youth realized that it was this pair of hands that washed the clothes everyday to enable him to pay the school fee. The bruises in the mother's hands were the price that the mother had to pay for his
graduation, academic excellence and his future.

After finishing the cleaning of his mother hands, the youth quietly washed all the remaining clothes for his mother.

That night, mother and son talked for a very long time.

Next morning, the youth went to the director's office.

The Director noticed the tears in the youth's eyes, asked: " Can you tell me
what have you done and learned yesterday in your house?"

The youth answered, " I cleaned my mother's hand, and also finished
cleaning all the remaining clothes'

The Director asked, " please tell me your feelings."

The youth said, Number 1, I know now what is appreciation. Without my mother, there would not the successful me today. Number 2, by working together and helping
my mother, only I now realize how difficult and tough it is to get something done. Number 3, I have come to appreciate the importance and value of family relationship.

The director said, " This is what I am looking for to be my manager.
I want to recruit a person who can appreciate the help of others, a person who knows the sufferings of
others to get things done, and a person who would not put money as his only goal in life. You are hired.

Later on, this young person worked very hard, and received the respect of his subordinates. Every employee worked diligently and as a team. The company's performance improved tremendously.

A child, who has been protected and habitually given whatever he wanted, would develop "entitlement mentality" and would always put himself first. He would be ignorant of his parent's efforts. When he starts work, he assumes that every person must listen to him, and when he becomes a manager, he would never know the sufferings of his employees and would always blame others. For this kind of people, who may be good academically, may be successful for a while, but eventually would not feel sense of achievement. He will grumble and be full of hatred and fight for more. If we are this kind of protective parents, are we really showing love or are we destroying the kid instead?*

You can let your kid live in a big house, eat a good meal, learn piano, watch a big screen TV. But when you are cutting grass, please let them experience it. After a meal, let them wash their plates and bowls together with their brothers and sisters. It is not because you do not have money to hire a maid, but it is because you want to love them in a right way. You want them to understand, no matter how rich their parents are, one day their hair will grow gray, same as the mother of that young person. The most important thing is your kid learns how to appreciate the effort and experience the difficulty and learns the ability to work with others to get things done.

You would have forwarded many mails to many and many of them would have mailed back to you too...but try and forward this story to as many as possible...this may change somebody's fate... Don’t you think so…

 

Regards-

A FAVOURABLE VERDICT OF SUPREME COURT ON CASUAL LABOURERS

A FAVOURABLE VERDICT OF SUPREME COURT ON CASUAL LABOURERS

The Supreme Court has deprecated the Union of India engaging casual workers and keeping them in temporary service for long without making them permanent employees, thereby denying the benefits due to them.

Expressing its displeasure and anguish at the manner in which the Borders Roads Organisation treated its casual workers, a Bench of Justices D. K. Jain and H. L. Dattu said engaging casual workers for less than six months and giving them artificial breaks so that they would not become eligible for permanent status ill behaved the Union of India and its instrumentalities, “which are supposed to be model employers.”

Justice Jain, writing the judgment, quoted an earlier ruling said; “It is a fact that a large number of casual labourers have worked with Porject Vartak for a number of years but their period of engagement at no stage is more than six months and they are recruited afresh and they do not get the status of permanent employee. As per the regulations, casual personnel are not eligible for any other privileges for continued employment under the government.”

In the instant case, the Union of India appealed against a Gauhati High Court judgment directing the government to regularize the services of members of Vartak Labour Union, some of whom had been working with the BRO for 30 years. Formulation of any scheme for regularization being a matter of policy, it was not within the High Court’s domain to direct regularization of the services of temporary appointees, the Centre said. The Bench agreed with its contention and said the union’s claim for regularisation of its members merely because they had been working for BRO for a considerable period could not be granted in the light of several decisions of this court. The Bench, quoting these judgments, said: “Casual employment terminates when the same is discontinued and merely because a temporary or casual worker has been engaged beyond the period of his employment, he would not be entitled to be absorbed in regular service or made permanent, if the original appointment was not in terms of the process envisaged by the relevant rules.

However, in the facts and circumstances of the case, where the union members had been employed in term of the regulations and had been consistently engaged for the last 30 to 40 years, of course with short breaks, “We feel the Union of India would consider enacting and appropriate regulation/scheme for absorption and regularization of the services of casual worker engaged by the BRO for execution of its on-going projects,” the Bench said.

India Post sees deficit jump 85% due to wage hike :

India Post sees deficit jump 85% due to wage hike :

New Delhi, August 8: 

The huge cash outgo on implementation of the Sixth Pay Commission’s recommendations increased the Indian Postal Department’s deficit by 84.84 per cent to Rs 6,641.30 crore for the year ended 2009-10.

During the 2009-10 financial year, the deficit of the department stood at Rs 6,641.30 crore, as against the previous year’s deficit of Rs 3,593 crore, translating into an 84.84 per cent increase.

This was due to a jump in expenses on account of implementation of the Sixth Pay Commission’s report and a normal increase in Dearness Allowance, the Department of Post said in its annual report for 2010-11.

The department has a network of 1.55 lakh post offices in the country, the largest in the world, of which more than 1.39 lakh are in rural areas.

The total revenue earned, including remuneration for saving bank and savings certificates work, during the year 2009-10 was Rs 6,266.70 crore and the amount received from other ministries/departments for agency functions was Rs 4,389.36 crore.

Gross working expenditure for the year 2009-10 was Rs 13,346.94 crore, as against the previous year’s expenditure of Rs 97,562.30 crore.

“The increase was mainly due to payment of arrears on pay and allowances on implementation of Sixth Pay Commission’s report and a normal increase in dearness allowance/dearness relief,” the report added.

Expenditure on fixed assets in the year 2009-10 stood at Rs 254.3 crore, of which 4.75 per cent was on land and buildings, 94.86 per cent on mechanisation and modernisation of postal services and 0.39 per cent on mail motor vehicles and other items.

The value of gross capital on the Postal Department’s fixed assets rose to Rs 2,123.94 crore at the end of the year. Its net progressive fixed asset value up to the end of the year was Rs 1,957.61 crore.

The Indian Postal Department provides mailing services for postcards, letter cards, letters and registered parcels, besides premier services like speed-post, EMS, logistics post, and e-payment, savings bank, savings certificates and Western Union Money Transfer.

It also acts in coordination with the Ministry of Finance with respect to reviewing the agency charges for services being performed under the National Small Saving Scheme and National Rural Employment Guarantee Act.
