Note to the West!

I would like to draw the attention of westerners who outsource work to India, either to sleep peacefully or to make cost savings for their organizations or to go on holidays with their dear ones!

 The months, October and November are month of festivals in India.  Every week there will be lesser working hours than usual.  Sometimes the working hours are too less that people here do not find it worth travelling to work!  

So what is the message? The message is if you are planning your critical project activities in these months please do not do so.  Plan well and have them somewhat earlier in the months of August and September or have them after October. 

Well, it may sound weird, but you can try planning critical activities in these months to believe in what I just said!  The culture has changed everywhere, Indians also travel long distances to spend time with their families.  We also want to have holidays and festivals.  Good or bad, we copied this culture from you.

 

If you want to go with the tide, you are most welcome to celebrate Indian festivals with us like we celebrate Halloween and Thanksgiving with you!!

East Vs West

Hellooow!  How are things?  I am writing after a very long time.  I am in India now and I work with customers from the western world.  We always contrast and compare the westerners culturally (perhaps they do it as well!).  I came across a website that was doing this contrasting between the east and west.  I have given some pictures ,that I liked, from the site.  These images do not represent my opinion though.

Blue is for Westerners and Red is for Asians.  Click on any of these images to visit the site and see the other pics.
