Ignorance WAS Bliss

What is the philosophy of an mba course ???

Why did i ever decide to do an mba ? come to think of it, if i had mentioned the actual thoughts that were running through my head during the interview i wud not be writing abt this here ...

well coming back why did i... some people may think this is a bit wierd, but the main reason i wanted to do an mba was because i wanted to own a laptop ! wud you believe that ! absolutely wrong interview reply !!!

secondly, i was tired of looking at my tyrannical boss's face (that had changed 3 times during my tenure there) that i decided to come over... in other words, "from the frying pan into the fire"...

third : i felt i was losing focus and doing with full interest only those things that i found interesting... that means i was not doing good at my drab work... was just loafing around in the office warming the seat and getting a fat sal in return... i was getting too soft...

fourth: was an opportunity to maybe earn a better salary after my 2 years... can't comment on this and i don't feel like it either having quit a high paying job (very high paying by my current standards)

as u can see all wrong replies that wud have landed me back in hell - the seat at my workplace... but come to think of it was that hell... then what is this ? hell^2 ? or hell^3... or is hell + hell = hell anyways...

no actualy i think that i was better off there... frankly speaking i did not know that i was happy out there rather than now. then i did not have a clue about india's fiscal policy nor the concept of demand forecasting... now, i don't know wot they are still... but others around me know it or rather seem to know it... now that made me get into a disadvantage as here it is all relative grading... at the job it was only your performance that affected your appraisal (or at least that is what they said).

here they tell you "not everyone is perfect... if you can't do good math hire a CA... that is why you are a manager dammit..." and then when you perform badly at math, they award you a 'F'...

i am still trying to understand y ? if so many people are passing out of b-schools every year, not all of them could be wrong... after all there are a lot of engineers passing out of engg colleges too every year... and the majority of students @ b-schools are engineers... well engineers cannot be wrong, can they ?
