eBIZ

I hate people. I especially abhor people who love money as is apparent from my last 2 posts.
Recently I was approached by a couple of people from my college with whom I am “friendly” with. They wanted me to join them on a social work that they had undertaken. This social work went by the name “ eBIZ ”. Although at the beginning it sounded very interesting, the fact that these 2 guys were trying too hard to convince me that eBIZ is boon to Indians kept nagging me. I thought nothing of it until …. They came to the main part. eBiz “may” have been created for a social service as the members claim … but if so then it has now degenerated into a source of quick money for the money hungry.
After some research I came to some conclusions about eBIZ.
eBIZ.com Pvt.Ltd. claims to be a non Profit organisation for the welfare of the Indian society and goes to the extent of saying that it is the only company because of which India is surviving.

It sells online Education Package worth Rs.7000/- which is otherwise freely available over the internet.

But the important point is it does all these through Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) Scheme, also called as Network Marketing. In such a mechanism one has to recruit members to enroll for the package and earn commissions.

The main target of this company is the youth mostly college freshers who are lured by promising them huge amounts of returns or the downtrodden poor people who can be dubbed easily.

eBIZ also claims that it provides Certificates for the online courses, but fails to declare that they are not even recognized by the Govt. of India. softwares .

For further crap on eBIZ visit http://antiebizel.googlepages.com/ebizwebspace . I am not a admin or the founder but I am definitely supporting it!!!!

TODAY

Today I was able to attend just the first three lectures and ended up bunking the last three lectures so that I could complete a “Digital Designing” Assignment. I along with Varun and Jammy sat for 2 hours completing the assignment. Did not think it was appropriate usage of my time. Oh ... and almost forgot, bought a Star Wars DVD with all the parts except the new animated one. Does anyone how it is?

Where Are You Headed ??

Why don’t people realize that life is too short? It is not to be spent partying. If you want to be someone you have to work. If you have fun early in life then all that awaits ahead in life is hardships. If you work hard, then the rewards later in life will be adequate if not great.

The new trend among my generation is “MONEY”. People are dropping out of colleges because they ending up with easy money. Call Centers that have sprung all over India are depriving the youth of valuable experience. People with potential are doing things that meant for people with below 80 IQ just because they are lured by easy money and a luxurious lifestyle. But where will they be in 10yrs as compared to their peers??

IRRITATION

Things irritate me. People irritate me more. The guy dozing off to sleep on my shoulder on the train. The girl giggling away to glory for no apparent reason. The professor who thinks he knows the A - Z of his subject. They all irritate me. But etiquette directs me to be polite, even if I do sometimes wish that I could strangle a few.
