The Spider's ' Net '

"Net" "Net" "Net"
Thats something that bugs everyone all the time.
You may wonder what this means. In more ways than one, a net bothers us. Be it binding us within the realms of this worldly life or be it the rules and regulations laid down by institutes that want you to think out of the box while u r in the box. Wow !! How sweet that is. Wonderful replies and still better assurances. Assurances of the things which are yet to see the light of day.
" Oh did u approach any one of us ? " You should've talked to us" and many more were the wonderful words, should be etched in gold eh ?? Obviously they were the future mktg managers making a gimmic of the situation.
As for the actual connection, it gives new surprises with every new ray of sunshine. With the IP address being incorrectly entered to the servor being out of action.
Makes me wonder what does it take for an institute so reputed, an institute so fine, to provide a basic little facility. How nice it looks in the brochure, but so difficult to implement. Management is what we learn but seldom apply ? Is it ? Tall claims as they are, the wonderful facade put forth. What good are those speeches ? what good are those reviews ? What difference does it make ? Politicians we curse and cry out against, but are'nt these even worse ? Highly qualified and here we are, all hands are up. "Nothing can be done. You want it this way fine or else you will be refunded what is yours. U decide. " Thats the world in reality. Gifts of the license raj. Take it or leave. This is the best you will get. If not you someone else will surely fall for it. For today there is demand and so i rule.
Sad, but even after 60 years of glorious independence this is where even the highly educated are stuck. Bottom up, no stone left unturned and yet no results.
All this makes me wonder, where am I ? In the age of technology where every minute matters, how important is the time of over 70 students ? Left in a lurch over unfulfilled promises and pitiful neglect for more than 2 months. Am I in the same old slow paced India or do i represent the charging billion nation ?
Nevertheless, thats best one can manage with the net of the cost acc test tightening its nooze around our heads, so till i find a way out.....
adios amigos.
