Granny’s message on Work from Home - Thanks us now!
A youngster was attending a video a conference with his Manager and his Manager was upset over the background noises, the Youngster turned around and told his grandmother to keep quiet.
She walked towards the youngster to take a look into what he was doing, she saw a person on the Monitor & asked “who is he?”
The youngster muted his audio and video by stating that “he is my Manager”
She said “I want to talk to your Manager”, But the youngster denied by the time the Manager started pinging the youngster and the youngster unmuted to talk and his grandmother shouted “Manager I want to talk to you"
The Manager agreed and the youngster unmuted the video, the grandmother with a smile said “Vanakkam & she introduced herself” and the Manager also greeted her
She said “you look upset” The Manager said “yeah, some kind of work tension, a lot of noise around and we are not able complete the meeting in time”
The Grand Mother asked, “can I solve your problem?”
The youngster was stopping her and he was telling her to keep quiet
The Manager said “It’s ok, let her speak”
The Grand Mother Narrated “ Once there was an Youngman who sat under a tree for taking rest, he was continuously hearing a bird’s sound and lifted his head up and started chasing the bird, so that he can peacefully take some rest, the bird came closer to him and said “ You are taking rest under my nest, I will not ask you to leave the place, you should learn to co-exist with us”
The Grandmother looked at both of them and said “ Your Home is your nest” where you are supposed to take rest and bond with your dear and near ones. I do understand the situation, but you should also understand that a home is not your office. When we come to visit our family members at your office, we are expected to behave professionally or maintain decorum, similarly when you are using our home, you should understand the situation at the home.
There is nothing wrong with working from home, but remember, it is the family members benevolent nature, that is keeping the corporate functioning today and economy running
She looked at the manager and asked “Am I correct, the Manager’s mother peeped and said you are absolutely right”??
Be safe at home, but maintain the sanctity of home while working at home
