What it feels to be scolded by boss when in an internship?

Image
<Google Image> Well,Then I am right now an intern in a good media house(Television) and also had been an intern in another which is a print. I wont take their name but will surely tell what are the differences - Internship-you are here in the office to learn-see and take all the thrashing of your boss.Well,not everybody faces ,I am sure of that but for me these situations are now common. But all I can say you need to get the most th ick skin in order to work in any kind of office especially for internship and a bit less for those who are permanent. It would be mandetory for the bosses to scold their interns .I dont know about your boss though.You should be able to face that.Because you are learning and you have to keep telling yourself, yes you can do it.Atleast I have been trying to that.But I would definately tell this current office where I am interning is much better than whereI have previously worked.Here the atmosphere is good,people are friendly which also makes up a go...

Getting in an 'electronic bus' in Kolkata----

The very idea of getting in an electric bus in the first instance felt too much exciting and an adventure to me.I am a regular traveller and had also seen the birth of electronic buses in Kolkata.The whole concept is for saving environment , no emission ,no Carbon dioxide and Carbon Monoxide with other harmful gases. It is a revolution to the transportation . Now ,I would question , how far the elctonic buses have influenced the d aily commuters like us! Well,my views will be that we are not atall influenced by the introduction of electronic buses!

Is media , a catalyst to sexual harassment?

Media is a great platform of infotainment .It gives us everything we want.It is a limitless medium through which we can convey our message to any body and to any place.(Ofcourse Internet needs to be availabe) Today we are in a Global Village as termed by Marshall McLuhan many years ago.We are now totally depended on media and the message conveyed through it. We have forgotten to judge things. To us everything that is available over  the internet is true . But our main question was whether media promotes sexual harassment-I will keep my views - to me somewhat yes . We are those people who shout and voice up against the increasing crime against women. That is obviously a correct thing to do. But we are those who also check out the movies where the heroes pull their girlfriend's saree or even beat her when she has refused his proposal! So what can you expect from a kid who is watching out these films with full of sexual contents - well I do not know the answer but will try to expl...
