Hai Rabba yeh Professionalism!!!!!!!!

Professionalism….I have asked somebody what is the definition of Professionalism … as there is lot of hype about- Be Professional, that guy is very professional and all……… what he told me is what which i cannot accept


So I have searched the definition from net.
See what I get.

" The standards, views, and behavior of one who engages in an activity, especially sports or the arts, to make his livelihood. Cf. Amateurism. — Professional, n. adj."

After reading this I thought … "Yar yeh woh definition to nahi hai, jo main janta hoo, ya fir jo muje log batate hai…"

I tell you when you become indiscipline, you are harsh and rude, you show your attitude, please note Negative attitude…. And most important, you have to be disrespectful, doesn’t matter whether he/she is your elder and and and and also you need not to stick to your words, if you promise something …Pleaseeeee never fulfill it…That is Professionalism.

I have seen when people does like this they are so called True Professional. People have changed the whole definition of professionalism.

An event management company called me up and presented me their proposal, I told them it’s okay probably we can work for our next event but not for the present one.

Next day, their boss came to see me and you won’t believe…… he said why not you cancel your contract with your present company, I am sure we can do something for you Mr Pathak, just think….. So what if they are planning for your event from last 3 months, I can assure we can do all this for you within 10days….

I said… No I will not … okkk tell me suppose if same thing I do with you then!!!!!

He said common man-- Be Professional!!! Mr. Pathak, everything is fair in business.

I simply said probably for you….. It is professionalism, not for me….

I think now this is tendency of general people ---- Tag your Misbehavior with so called Professionalism.

Astonishing thing even parents also tag their children misbehavior with Professionalism,

I wonder after sometime, if god also becomes Professional…. to Mera kya hogaaaa bhai??

It's really weird when people twist the meanings of words for selfish ends. Nice to see a post about it in the blogosphere...

Whenever you meet such people think of what happened to the Rajus and Enrons of yesterday. Their short lived success is primarily based on corruption and illegal business behavior rather than professional and ethical means.

Nicely written.:)

Really posts are good, they deal with practical and important issues..I remember when i was in marketing, and we used to go to customers for presentation, they used to offer me jobs on the spot.. And when i denied, they refuse to listen to my presentations...And these were like team leaders and managers themselves..

Great Description.....Good Posts....some ppl as soon as they get designation as Managers/HR their behavior completely changes, assuming themselves to be Presidents, and lack humanity, self-respect, no basic mannerism/Behavior:)

Ve seen many ppl, who r lacking in basic english..just they dress themselves posing as Executives, professionals[but fit for nothing]:)

Pallav said...
