Mango Tree, Palm Tree and Volai - What we do at Office - Part II (conclusion)

Yeah.. The two parts being almost a fortnight apart will take a lot of steam off, but then, what has been started is better off finished.

Okay.. now coming back to it...

There are basically two types of people of who dont work here:

Type I:

There people are born old, laid back, and have no ambition in life whatsoever.

They want to have tea at 11:00am everyday, They want tea at 12:00 Noon, they want to have an hour long lunch break starting at 1:00pm and Ending at 3:00pm, and they want Tea at 4:00pm and they want to leave at 5:00pm and they want a modest salary credit to their account at the end of the month and they want to be bossed by people who have taken voluntary retirement from bank jobs because they werer too taxing on the psyche.

Then Come the Type II guys:

These guys are infact ladies, who absoultely get bored at home by watching soaps dished out by Ekta Kapoor and our dear old Telugu channels and are look out for some real gossip and making substantial money in the process - they invariably land up here, gossip, have endless cups of tea, have lunch hour that lasts two and have a salary credited to their account at the end of the month

now, Type III: (they guys who work. Well, sometimes)

This is acutally the place to be for the Type III people. They dont care two hoots for the job, and even lesser about the bosses and the so called office decorum and the people who Orkut and Blog from office and people who worry about meeting lines which are dead. These people are here, for some and entertainment from the other types of people and also get some work done in the process - the typical ass depression of these people in the office seats averages from 6 months to 12 months in depth. They are here to make some easy money while looking out for better opportunities or making it out on their own.

The percentage of Type III peole varies from 30% to 50% at any given time, and the noice levels generated by these people are in the Range of 99 - 100% and they account for about 80% of the office expenses in terms of salaries.

While the Type I and Type II people have all the time in their lives to get things done, and keep procastinating - type three people are more concerned about experience certificates and hence are the only people who get the 20% of work done to claim 80%..

No need to say. Pareto is our definition of God.

80% of the Work gets done in 20% of the time and 20% of the relaxation gets done in 80% of the time...

People Speak:
Well said, Teju!

A nice ending to your post - the Pareto Principle in its 'office' version.
 
Nice observation,Teju.

Keep going.Is there a 3rd part for this? :-)
 
Do you really have Type I ppl in your org? Or are you NOT working in an IT company? And not all women fall under Type II, pls!! Otherwise, it is a very astute observation of the work culture in most of the offices, atleast the *govt* ones with the almost guaranteed jobs.
