Stretching Hours at Workplace – Right or Wrong?



Most of the people hate this work hour stretching business. However, a few people love to do this. The reasons for doing so may vary. But they do it with penchant. Nevertheless, people stretch their hours at work place in various interesting ways. If a few people don’t prefer to go after their working hours due to some family problems, others continue doing work as if there is no tomorrow after working hours to gain their superior’s attention and peer’s sympathy. Rest, simply don’t know what to do once they reach home [most of the bachelors/spinsters who are working in remote places with no night life access falls in this category] also prefer to spend their after working hours in the workplace.

However, we need to know whether stretching hours at work place is good for our career. The answer is a strict NO. The question is why you have to stretch your hours in the first place? Whatever may be your reason, it does not give a good opinion about you to your superiors.

However, if you are planning to stay late, the best thing is that you should let your superior know beforehand why you are going to do it on a particular day. Most of the times, it is better if you complete your assigned tasks on the specified time and push off at the right time from the office premises. Unnecessary stretching just to grab attention creates unwanted problems; sometimes, extra work would be passed on to you by your peers who take it for granted that you stay there at least 4 hours after your working hours. And other times, your peers may think like this; since you are not efficient for getting things done in specified time, you stretch your hours, unreasonably.

In summary, getting things done in specified number of hours when it comes to office work is good for your body, mind, soul, and career. Unnecessary stretching of hours for attention grabbing business or just to get a hike by inciting sympathy in the heart of your superior may backfire most of the times.

Good luck!

World Class from India




Who has the dare to disturb the universe? The answer is GOD. However, apart from God, ‘humans with brains’ also have the capability up to a certain extent to disturb the universe through their cutting-edge innovations. Earlier, we humans used to follow certain proven rules and strategies to lead our lives. Nowadays, it has become a habit to disrupt everything that we used to do; from technologies to processes, we want to change everything.

There was a time, where people employ pigeons to carry messages. After paper has been invented, postal system came into picture. It was there for a long time and no one has dreamt of any other system that is capable of replacing it. But then came, e-mail riding on top of Internet. Whole postal department look, feel, and process have been changed for the better; like never before. Communication picked up at rapid pace and people started consuming more information within a short span of time. Then came social networking sites like Facebook, Buzz, etc, and applications like What’s up, Hike, etc, which allows people to continuously keep in touch with each other. Instant fame is the hot topic nowadays and sharing even small achievements have become part of our lives.

Nowadays, we hear hitherto unknown phrases like ‘killer websites’, ‘attract eyeballs’, ‘game-changing environments’, etc. In this world, now things started changing at a rapid pace. The biggest innovation challenges are becoming the ground zeros for disruptive innovations. And, one of the ‘innovation ground zeros’ on this planet, whose profile rocks, is in India - a spiritual oriented country.

‘MADE IN INDIA’ is a significant brand at a global scale. Although, sporadic life threatening security issues are there, when it comes to India, it acts as a hub for manufacturing various products. The products of India are built with world class quality stuff and are shipped to different destinations across the globe under the following brand name: World Class from India.
