A letter to Mr. Brunner

I got a little tired of scouring various web sites for pictures of BIAL so decided to drive down to see the Real McCoy. The letter that I am planning to send to Mr. Brunner was triggered by this visit. WARNING: This is long and mindless.

Dear Mr. Brunner,

Education's loss is call centres' gain

Being an MBA graduate with a PhD, Ravichandran who handles classes for MBA students at Madurai Kamaraj University in Tamil Nadu, says he earns Rs 40,000 per month after 20 years of experience. "But my student who did an MBA course last year, already earns about Rs 10,000 more than me", he says. He said only 5 per cent graduates from these streams opt for teaching.

Traffic police - why stand and deliver?

Was driving my F-I-L's Santro the other day when I was stopped by one of those police parties. 5 of them, settled under a thick tree. Half of them waiting to stop unsuspecting vehicles, the other half busy 'punishing' the 'successful' catches. I never get stopped when driving bigger cars, but the 9 year old santro 'fit' their criteria.

How Industry can help reduce traffic congestion

With the rising cost of fuels and the congestion on the roads one would hate to drive but as work demands we grind our teeth and just pull along. How long is this going to work? I have a friend in the IT Industry, His job is mostly at client locations and currently rides a 2 wheeler. His company offered him a hike of 15K if he moved to a car. Ouch!
