Frustated me in the Eco. class.. MBA unravelled!!


As he traversed on the cubaneous superstrabum of the progeny of musa sapientum, his verticality was transformed into horizontality.”

 

In short he stepped on a banana peel, and fell down.

But we MBA students will not speak in the latter way because its easier to understand, and anybody, read ANYBODY, can read it. So we sprinkle in a lot of jargons, cook the information over the fire of facts and figures, add a teaspoonful of data, a pinch of PPTs and voila! you have the perfect recipe to confuse people with your powerful oration. Similarly, here we don’t “reject a null hypothesis”… we simply “not accept the NH.” Now will someone please volunteer to explain what the hell is the difference between the two? Well I can at least give you a hint: Its 5 marks out of 40. That’s it. Period. Here we major in other subjects or not, we are made experts in preparing PPTs, giving presentations, debating on world issues and working on excel sheets. Thats it. You see its all about "creating" demands, and then confusing the bussinesses & consumers that its The Most Important thing, and cannnot be achieved without our help. So here we go.. Looting money/sucking money out of people, and then saying "Here, we cracked the deal". Confusion and self importance is the way to make money.. seize the oppurtunity today, because competition sells before you.

And the side effects are that since we have wireless here and the speed is pretty decent (touch wood! Boys hostel does'nt have a net connection btw), in the name of "observation & experimentation & research", we end up wasting a lot of time over the net chatting, downloading music and exchanging movies. And creating a big ruckus when IT department blocks orkut & other such social sites under the heading "Matrimonial & Social Interaction sites"... Matrimonial... pahleeeesssss... give us a break! Recently we are on a 'Remove our lecturer' mission against one women.. but as i can foresee its not gonna help. Just increased our workload thats it. And a lot of suspensions, out -of -hostel-and -placement orders as well (ofcourse "taking the lenient view")... here we have one hell of a rebel batch. Actually its also a part of our corporate learning in the form of Labour Union training and stuff....

Dunno what i have been going on blabbering all this while.. But then the title itself says, "The frustated me"... cant really help it. Cheers!!!

Well, yeah I guess thats what a MBA is........talking in a grandiloquent verbose manner about things which in essence are nothing but nought....

Nevertheless, speaking from a purely technical point of view, there is a subtle difference between rejecting a NH and not accepting it.
Rejection means you are sure about the situation being the opposite but non-acceptance simply means the information or the procedure used is insufficient to come to any conclusion.

Ya, its all about creating confusion by talking in a out-of-the-world language! And as for the "subtle difference", its so subtle that i cannot differentiate between the two. Lolz.

@Raphael
Thanks dear.. Yups that ways we create an aura around us, so that the recruiters fall bait for it.
