Day to Day Office

It’s not just about ranting, bashing, or blaming. It’s the little things that actually make or break your day.

Today, one of my team members asked me for a leave no sugarcoating, no excuses. Just a simple, “Can I take leave tomorrow? It’s my birthday.”

Now, my approval could’ve made all the difference. If I said no, he might still take the day off with a made up excuse. And honestly, I don’t even know if it’s really his birthday.

But what I did feel was intention. pure and genuine.
And it made me pause.

Being someone’s manager means a lot more than assigning tasks or tracking performance. Sometimes, it’s about understanding, trusting, and choosing kindness when it matters.

Am I the only one who feels this way?

Being a manager comes with a lot of responsibilities.

From penny-pinching to investing, let's talk money moves that would make Warren Buffett proud.

Personal Finance

I wondered if saving was even possible.

Spent:
Rent ₹12k
Food ₹8k
Netflix & travel ₹3.2k
Emergency ₹2k

Saved the rest ₹24.8k:
₹10k in SIPs (ELSS, large-cap, mid-cap, gold ETF)
₹14.8k into emergency fund

6 months later:

Returns: 8–12%
Portfolio: ~₹1.9L

SIP = habit

Emergency fund - ready

POV:
Even on ₹50k, if you stay disciplined, saving ₹5–10k/month is absolutely doable.

When my first salary came in, 50k take-home

Career Growth

For the longest time, I believed that if I just kept my head down and did good work, growth would follow. Promotions. Opportunities. Recognition. All in due time, right?

Turns out, not really. No one’s handing it to you just because you’re consistent. You have to ask. Follow up. Sometimes even fight for what you’ve earned.

Be your own advocate. Keep track of your wins. Speak up when you're ready for more. It’s uncomfortable, but silence rarely gets rewarded.

Anyone else learned this the hard way?

Your growth is your responsibility. Not your manager’s

News

Just got my hands on a viral offer letter from a company that left me stunned. 
For a salary of just ₹12,000, female employees are expected to follow a strict dress code: only churidar-kurtas with a shawl pinned on both sides, hair neatly tied back with a ribbon, no jeans, no open hair, and no casual wear even on Fridays. It’s 2025, and we're still being told how to dress and present ourselves like schoolgirls?

This isn’t about professionalism, it’s about control. As a woman, it’s frustrating to see companies focus more on policing our appearance than valuing our talent. Is this an office or a finishing school?

Must wear churidar, tie hair up', - said the  offer letter
