Rat race & CGPA

Image
By
I came across this chat between two friends. This shows how we get trapped in a rat race. 

Friend 1: she gave me 7 out of 10 in my interim report
and by the way thats very bad marks
Friend 2: fantastic. Tell her u would've been happy at 6. At 7 you would have been the victor ;-)
tell me one thing on a very serious note. Wht did u expect ??
Friend 1: from her
?
Friend 2: yes
Friend 1: 9 atleast
i want a A grade in my sip
Friend 2: and is it your boss whoz given u 7 or is it your professor ??
Friend 1: my cgpa will shoot to 7.6
with that
My Boss
if i manages a A my cgpa is 7.5
and rest of my MBA will be in peace
Friend 2: k so u've finally jumped into the rat race
Friend 1: yeah
Friend 2: thats not a good sign buddy. believe me.
Friend 1: but if i had worked for her then i deserve an A grade
Friend 2: I knw u very well. u won't achieve a thing
Friend 1: i had bagged her 2 project
Friend 2: She does not deserve u workin for her.
and she givin u a 7 is a ploy. She wants you 2 bag her 20 projects without givin u a penny. had she given u 9, probably u would'nt have done that. Shez making u her slave
u are getting into slavery coz she has power of ur marks over you. She is misusing it
r u online ??
Friend 1: hey
2:34 AM Friend 2: u've got 2 make her feel u r giving ur best, by putting ur best foot forward ofcourse and telling her that even if she gives u a 7, u don't really care.
Friend 1: no i do care....
Friend 2: thats where people control u.
thats ur weakness. You'll be exploited

Its proliferation in the 18-35 years of age group (52%) makes it ideal for most advertisers. An interesting statistic to observe is the number of people accessing Facebook through Mobile.

Anyways Peter principle elaborated it. Just going through the first chapter of "Why Things Go Wrong" gave me a sense of why mostly people crib about their jobs, work place and then go for a higher degree ( like an MBA,M-Tech,Msc etc. or diploma) to get into a job that would probably satisfy them (finally). But does it satisfy them? That's another debatable topic. Coming to mediocrity, chapter one of "Why Things go wrong" made me bump into a quote by William Arthur Ward and I am splitting and spilling it below. The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires. Inspiration to perform and outdo is what drives out the pending sleep and lethargy to make us perform. The same goes for work. But whatif a mediocre...
