mnc endral enna?
Heard an interesting one sided conversation today morning in the beach.There was this young boy, talking earnestly on the mobile. I guess he was talking to his mom, as he kept interspersing his talk with 'illa ma'(well, one could argue that it could be anyone not necessarily his mom, as the expression 'ma' is used colloquially to denote a friend sometimes) But then the number of times ' illa ma' was coming in the conversation, i as a mom know that it is the offspring talking to the mom!!
But then i was wanting to say something else; he was telling his mother that he has got a job. And that it is in an 'mnc'.I guess mommy wanted to know what is this new word 'mnc' that is coming up. And he said, ma, mnc means multinational corporation....
I passed by so was not privy to the conversation further; and while i was coming back on my return route, this boy had disappeared.
For the first time in our lives, we are coming across a very happy situation.Where jobs in mnc are not offered only to the top and creamy layer of the society, where not only the boy, but mommy, daddy and all else would be quite familiar with words like mnc and the rest.But are offered to youngsters who need to tell their moms and dads what an mnc means.
Can we take it that the trickle down effect has started to happen, albeit in a small and obscure way?

This is really a good trend that more and more people are getting jobs and they are getting into private sector whether it is MNC or other wise.
I remember about 30 years back a Govt. job was considered the best as there is the pension option and security, even if it is the Class IV post.
In our country our Government was burdened with providing jobs for the citizens which made it difficult for them to Govern which is the main work of any Government. I am eagerly waiting to see our country having a good Governance and I think it will be the natural next step.
one does not see any youngsters on the streets of chennai(or rather in our neighbourhood) after 7.30 am. They have all been herded into either their college buses to their engineering colleges or again into the buses provided by their employees to the extremities of the city.
And you see them only on Sundays moving about in groups.
Can we believe that road side romeos who used to be ubiquitous on the streets are gone!
