Why do people feel so miserable and disengaged at work

Why do people feel so miserable and disengaged at work? Because today's businesses are increasingly and dizzyingly complex — and traditional pillars of management are obsolete, says Yves Morieux. 

So, he says, it falls to individual employees to navigate the rabbit's warren of interdependencies. In this energetic talk, Morieux offers six rules for "smart simplicity." (Rule One: Understand what your colleagues actually do.)

 Hope this is not your horror story

* Names have been changed to protect confidentiality

I was working for one of the top Fortune 500 Engineering organisation as a maintenance head. My parents were very old and used to stay in our ancestral home in Chennai.

My father was not keeping well and I was stressed about it and planned to visit him during the weekend. I came to office in the morning as there was some maintenance schedule to be discussed. I got a call from my mother weeping that my father had a heart attack and she wanted me to come immediately.
Fearing the worst I rushed to my Boss and told him I had to urgently rush to my home town Chennai due to my father’s situation.

He without any emotions told me in a flat tone to give him some important documents regarding the maintenance plan before going and briefing my colleagues to handle my work in my absence.

I was literally shaking with rage . Thanks to the support of my colleagues who said they would handle the situation and made arrangements for me to drop me to the airport.
Unfortunately due to my Boss I missed the first available flight by 10 minutes and had to catch the later first available flight which was after 3 hours .

My dad expired calling my name one hour before I could reach him. I was flabbergasted and was so angry with my Boss on delaying me that I took 15 days leave and looked for another job and quit the company .
I also wrote the cause in my exit interview , later I heard that my Boss who was literally hated by his team because of his rude and selfish behaviour got a promotion and became the division head. He also bad mouthed me saying I was a good riddance.

If you have similar experience . You can do much more than just quitting now you can share the feedback about your boss anonymously inhttp://knowurboss.com and warn others

Sports Imitating Life-Lessons from Indo-Bangla Cricket Match

That freaking last over in India Bangladesh Match was a neat set of life lessons. Here is how:

Bangladesh needs 12 runs in last over. Over a billion people are on edge with their ------ on cusp of despair or joy.

1. Pandya goes for 2 fours in first 3 balls. At this point game is over for India. But Pandya still keeps his head to ball some what sensibly for last 3 balls.

Life Lesson 1- It is never lost until you lose it. Even if defeat is staring at your face.

2 . Mushfiqur hits second four in last over and punches in air. Just 2 runs needed in 3 balls. So they have won he thinks. The Bangla dugout stands clapping. Wrong assumption.

Life Lesson 2- Never count your chickens until they are hatched. Really hatched.

1. Two runs needed in last ball. A billion people watching are trembling with nerves. Dhoni remains cool showing no emotion. In the melee of last ball when billion minds have raced to confusion, he has sense to not throw the ball and run the batsman out. He knows he has won , yet he doesn’t jump into air or punches his fist.

Life Lesson 3- Equanimity and dispassion is key to master one's mind. No excessive joy in good time and no excessive sorrow in unfavorable times is how one should live.

1. One freak hit and Bangladesh could have won. One run in last over and it could have been a tie. Anything was possible like a random chance at toss of dice.

Life Lesson 4: There is an overall seeming randomness in life. In the end you lose some and you win some by an unknown roll of dice.
