This is a four part series article. This is the first part.
PART – I.
The real Managers are not only those who successfully manage their work affairs but also treat the staff working under them with respect, decency, human dignity and fatherly protection. The real Managers are those who accept the fact that they are only colleagues of the staff working under them and NOT bosses.
In this lengthy article I show how our modern day Managers for their selfish goals disgrace their Managership by acting as criminals against their own colleagues working under them. The names and real identities of the Managers I indicate in this article I will disclose at an appropriate time and at an appropriate forum.
Expatriate Managerial class of people is one of the worst in Kuwait and if it is Indian then I have no words to show my dislike to this class, though exceptions are there. I have worked at many places under many managers from different nationalities. The worst among them were German Nazis, then comes racists British, then Indian artificial Maharajas and then comes the Middle Eastern stupid Arabs, of course with exceptions. The remuneration that Managers get in Kuwait is beyond their dream and as such to protect it they will do anything and any crime some of them even doling their wives to their superiors. From my long residence in Kuwait, I noticed that people in Kuwait for the sake of money will stoop to any ebb and among them Managerial class is the worst culprit. Many of the managers to protect their Dinars are unnecessarily harassing the staff working under them in order to be in good book with their bosses by having stability on their jobs and thru this the regular flow of exorbitant income for them, many times undeservingly.
From my experience point of view, I saw how one Indian manager mentally tortured staff working under him just to protect his chair and fat remuneration. Fat remuneration not according to the standard of Kuwait but according to the Indian standard. Normally high grade Indians with high grade dignity are not coming to work in Kuwait though many are claiming to be of high grade. Normally Kuwait does not require high grade manpower because Kuwait economy is based not on high grade sophisticated heavy industry. Kuwait is not an industrial giant, Kuwait is a Trading Economy. Secondly Kuwait is not an egalitarian society like India.
To become a Manager in Kuwait normally you need not possess high grade educational background or sophisticated professional background. For these reasons many of the Managers in Kuwait are of Donkey’s calibre even though they may boast of their limited educational and professional knowledge which in reality means peanuts. And in order to protect their interest they will squeeze the staff working under them to get maximum benefits from them by paying minimum of remuneration for their staff.
Mr. X is an Indian Manager from Madras having a good educational and professional background but not good enough to work in the same capacity and in the same Hitlerian manner in India. In Kuwait he is like one eyed man among the blinds. While in conversation with me recently, he said “because I am a charitable man I forced the owner of the company to recall all the employees after the liberation of Kuwait”. For this I interrupted him and said “if you brought back all your staff it was only for your own benefit and survival because you knew very well that without their know-how and experience in their jobs you will not survive. It was you who needed them more and precisely because of your benefit you recalled them. There was no charity in this because your organisation is not a charitable organisation, your organisation where you are working as Manager is a commercial organisation and not a charitable”.
Then he said “I am very helpful to my staff to better their job prospects in order to better their remunerations and for this reason I am pushing my staff even angrily”. For this I replied knowing his very bad attitude towards his staff, “you push your staff like a Saddam Hussein not because you think to do good for them but to exploit them by threatening to get better services from them for your own personal benefit and promotion because ultimately it is you who is going to get better dividends from your employer if your department makes good profit while all your staff working under you as slaves are considered as idiots inspite of their hard work. Unfortunately in front of your employer who regretfully does not know any of your staff working under you, except you, the major beneficiary of the largesse of your employer goes for you only”.
Then I went a step further and accused him rightly saying “You are such a robber that by making all your staff work like slaves you robbed them all of their due remunerations and elevated and promoted only your own Madrasis and on top of it you say you are a man of justice? To hell with your justice.” Good that this Madrasi Manager is in Kuwait where the Labour Laws allow the Managers to take any decision even against the innocent employees; Hire and Fire is the worst law that goes against the interest of the employees in Kuwait and crook Managers are known to take advantage of this law. And many times, because of this law, employees are working as slaves in Kuwait having no other option in order to survive to earn Kuwaiti Dinars to feed them and their families. And knowing this very well, some rascal Managers take maximum advantage of the staff working under them to squeeze them physically and mentally thereby even making them unfit to be full-fledged human beings in society.
This same manager was so rude and arrogant that he was treating his staff very badly by giving them mental and psychological torture on the job thereby creating all round tension on their physical and mental well-being. He was acting worst than Hitler with his staff who having no other choice were submitting themselves to his diktats like poor goats in front of the blood thirsty Butcher. Ultimately and unfortunately the effects of the harshness of this manager on his staff in his department were so terrific that almost everyone started to fall sick one by one being unable to bear the harassment from him. One staff was rushed to the hospital with Kidney problem; another three were hospitalised with cardiac problems - two of them undergoing Bypass Surgeries; another two suffering from mental strokes while others acquiring one type or the other type of sickness. In one stroke he created mental and physical deformities in all the staff working under him.
All the staff working under his supervision were doing their job under stressful atmosphere. Stress is something that causes discomfort physically or mentally in a person. Mental stress is caused when the expectations of a person are not fulfilled. This was exactly what has happened to the staff working under this Madrasi Manager who was expecting Moon from his staff while his staff because of their limited capacity could not rise to the expected level. Hence the crisis leading to physical and mental deformities in the poor staff.
This Madrasi Manager was such a biased towards his staff that he was gaving less increment to the deserving staff and more to those who do not deserve more and yet he claimed to be judicious. He used his staff on the job as donkeys and paid them as donkeys also but expected from them genius work without paying genus remuneration. I asked him once “does your Hinduism permit you to act violent in front of your poor staff while Hinduism preaches Non-Violence”? He had no answer because he was a shameless who lowered the image of Indians by acting like a “Dada”. Good that he was only an employee in the company and did not own the company or partnership with the owner of the company.
He was so greedy to earn maximum for him only that he was getting KD 3000/- as salary while he was paying his immediate assistant only KD 400/- though his assistant was largely responsible for substituting him during his vacation thereby performing 75% of his job successfully but he was not paid 75% salary, what he was paid was like alms to the beggar.

2012 RESOLUTIONS FOR INDIAN CHRISTIANS.
The Protestant Britishers allowed citizens from its territories including India to learn Law, Economics, Political Science in Universities in Britain………one of those citizen was Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi who gathered all the knowledge from Universities in Britain returned back to India and utilized the knowledge gained in Britain to expel the Britishers out of India…….even the Architect of India’s Constitution i.e. Dr. B.R. Ambedkar studied in Colleges & Universities in Britain………the Indian Constitution needs to be amended to reflect the fact that Islam & Christianity does not support Caste system……and reservations for Muslims & Christians in India should be given on religious grounds……….10% Job Quota for Muslims & 5% Job Quota for Christians……..the quota should be extended in all institutions including armed forces – police – judiciary – JanLokPal Departments – State Lokayuktas - Intelligence Agencies – etc etc etc etc etc.
Like the Protestant Britishers the Protestant Americans allowed students from all countries to learn chemical biological nuclear medical space science in their Universities......some of the students after gaining knowledge & degrees returned back to their motherland and their knowledge was utilized by their governments to develop nuclearbombs missiles rockets etc etc etc.........every nation has the sovereign right to develop whatever they want just as America has the sovereign right to develop whatever they want BUT a larger question related to America/USA & Britain/England/UK......is Christianity and Christian Values, and Jesus Christ, still the primary driving force in US & Britain Culture today?..........Looking at American & British Mainstream Media, one can soon and easily see that the USA & Britain are no longer the home to Christian Values……..everything Christian has become more and more ridiculed, more and more marginalized, and seen more and more of Christian Freedoms curtailed in the name of Separation of Church and State.
The Protestant Britishers came to India not to serve Catholics neither they came to convert India into a Protestant country……the Britishers came to India obviously to loot but you cannot deny the fact that the Britishers gave tremendous business opportunities to Gujaratis, Parsis, Marwaris & Jains…….Unlike the Parsis who will employ in their offices & factories member of any community any religion any caste provided the person is qualified for the job applied for…..the same is not the case with the Gujratis, Marwaris & Jains……these three communities will avoid employing members from the Muslim & Christian community………all Jains have Hindu names all Jains apart from worshipping Mahavira also worship some of the Hindu Gods and many Jains also donate money to right wing hindu groups and it is very sad that some State governments in India have included Jains in the minority list its time all State Governments removed the Jain community from the minority list and declare them a Hindu group.
The Portuguese who ruled Goa for 450 years and Bombay for 200 years gave the bad habit of drinking alcohol to the catholic natives of Bombay & Goa that bad habit has been passed on from generation to generation AND the Catholic Clergy programmed the catholic natives of Bombay & Goa to remain non-combative, non-aggressive, non-ambitious, susegaad, politically inactive & poor due to which the catholics of goa & bombay are finding it increasingly difficult to compete in this Dog-Eat-Dog-World………catholics in goa & bombay are also physically weak because of the daily consumption of the unhealthy & unhygienic bakery maida pavs which does not have any proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins……………As for the enterprising & hardworking Mangalorean catholics they only maintain brotherly relations with Mangalorean Hindus and not with any other community in India.
During Sunday Sermons the Clergy give sermons of serving poor but behind the scene they are corrupt & evil…..they misuse church funds…they quietly sell away vacant church properties and siphon off the money……they refuse admission to children of poor catholics in parish schools……they behave like dictators….they believe that the Church, parish buildings, parish halls, graveyard, church grounds, parish schools, church properties everything is their private property............here in bombay many of our poor catholics have left the catholic church because of the rough and rude attitude of the catholic clergy……….left does not mean they have abandoned Christ or have stopped going to church…...they believe in Christ and go to church but not to attend any mass or church service but to put a garland or light a candle near the idol of Jesus Christ or Mother Mary pray for 5 minuties and move on……..just like the Hindus who go to temple put some garland or coconut and touch the feet of whichever idol of hindu god is in that temple and move on.
All Lay Catholics in India need to take a pledge that from 1st January, 2012 onwards they..…...will demand from the Parish Priest to disclose once in three months in parish bulletins or church notice boards how church funds were utilized…..will demand from the Parish Priest to remove from the church cupboards all the landrecords agreements 7/12 extracts address area ctsnos surveynos of all the vacant church properties which the church was in possession of during the last 50 years and disclose in parish bulletins or notice board which of those properties were given on lease or rent and which properties have been sold off to builders and what the money recvd from lease, rent & sale was utilized for……..will demand from the clergy to reserve 50% seats for catholics in all catholic institutions including catholic schools……….will demand from the clergy to disclose permanently on church notice boards the names & contact numbers of members of church finance committees - property cell committees - catholic school committees - church committees……will demand from the clergy not to waste time of the laity with boring sunday sermons..…will stop drinking alcohol......will persuade those christians who have hindu names to adopt christian names so that they can reflect their christian religion........will aggressively apply for government jobs – police jobs – bank jobs – etc etc etc…….will oppose forcible land acquisition……..will oppose fraudulent & allurement conversion activities of christian missionaries…….will oppose forcible conversion activities of right wing hindu groups……….will oppose corruption in politics & govt. depts……..will support Govt. of India’s two child policy………will oppose female foeticide/infanticide…....will protect open spaces mangroves water resources from being grabbed by builders & slumlords.
Team Anna agitated for 10 years for the RTI Act then nobody accused them of being agents of RSS now everybody to dislodge their anti-corruption movement are accusing them of being agents of RSS……….some people fail to realize that the provisions of the JanLokPal Bill (if it is passed in 2012 with the draft prepared by Team Anna) will be applicable also against the political wing of RSS i.e. the BJP………apart from the anti-corruption bills issues related to these problems also need some solutions………overpopulation problem – female foeticide/infanticide problem – lack of infrastructure industries jobopportunities in backward districts – communalism & terrorism & casteism problem – allurement & fraudulent conversion activities of Christian missionaries – forcible conversion activities of right wing hindu groups – forcible land acquisition of farmers tribals fisherfolks - illegal voting rights of landencroachers - openspaces mangroves water resources being grabbed by builders & slumlords – and whole lot of other problems – the Government needs to set up a separate ministry to look into all these problems and take the inputs of social activists – ngos – rti activists – environmental activists – citizen activists – honest retired judges – etc for solutions to all the problems.
During Portuguese rule the natives of Bombay were known as Portuguese Christians…..when the British East India Company took over the natives of Bombay came to be known by the name Eastindians……after 1947 and reorganization of states when bombay became part of Maharashtra there was a debate by the Bombay EastIndian Association to adopt the name Maharashtrian but since the marathi people have monopolized the name maharashtrians for themselves due to which the idea of eastindians adopting the new name maharashtrians was abandoned and the name eastindian still remains…………The Bombay EastIndian ( **** www bombayland.blogspot com **** ) community is Suffering because all their ancestral agricultural lands surrounding their villages in Bombay was grabbed by the Government, Slumlords, mmrda, BMC, landmafia, mhada, collectorsoffice…AND….Alcoholism–Infighting-Jealousy………AND……Driven by poverty the eastindians ( ** www east-indians com ** ) were unable to get the requisite permissions for rebuilding their own dilapidated houses and were forced to barter a floor with the builder in return for one to live in decently, without giving thought to where the next generation will reside and without bothering the bad quality materials the builder will use to construct the new Ground+1 house which will result in monsoonal problems – leakages problems – walls/floor as thin as paper…AND…daily consumption of the unhealthy & unhygienic bakery maida pavs…AND…lack of interest in education…AND…lack of interest in agitating for 5% job quota in bmc, police, mmrdaoffices, mhadaoffices, rationoffices, collectorsoffice, citysurveyoffices, town planning dept, urban development dept, building proposal dept, suburbanrailways, metro, monorail, airindia, ongc, hp, indianoil, rbi, nationalized banks, bombay/kalina university, iitpowai, central/state govt. undertakings, public sector undertakings and other government institutions operating in bombay…AND….lack of interest in reading the Word of God i.e. The BIBLE.
