A DAY IN MY HOSTEL
As soon as I entered hostel main gate, I could see only final years, and no one else. I stepped into my room kept my luggage, came back to check the population of final year, it was nearly 30, accompanying 9 rooms. And first 7 rooms were occupied by fruities and last two rooms by Imran, Ikram, Venkat, Umar and Dawood. They all came a day before. And no one was there in room. No clue why we all were here because our preparation will be one the day before exam, since our home was boring we all had come to hostel that we will go out and roam somewhere in Chennai.
We all get back to the room and it is 10 days left for exam, we started spending our time like morning cricket, evening volleyball, late night movies, no wonder remaining time we will be sleeping “TIGHT”. Though we were like this, guys other than last two rooms were busy with their books, all day. So it’s Dawood who decided to play prank on them and started sketching out his plan, to disturb these guys.
He called up and that’s was his plan, we should somehow distract those needs and show what final year joots are. And its venky, innovator of team came with an idea to threaten all others. The plan is that Imran- the role of ghost, Umar-sound maker, Dawood-organizer, Ikram and I slam the door and windows. As decided in our mess it was Venky talking out loud, ”yesterday night I heard some strange noise in terrace like howling, doors slam and dangerous anklet sound by 12:15”,as others turned their attention towards him after hearing this.
Its Murali from the nerds, who is bravest among final years, went out of men with a smile that we guys have planned something for today night. And others listening eagerly to Venky. And we all decided to check out what the crap is. It almost ten and all guys came to our room. We told them all to be alert by 12:15.
And around 10:30, we started working on it, as our room is on third floor and terrace is just above third floor we planned to execute it on the terrace. And we covered Immy with white color dhoti fully, that his legs are not visible. By 11:45 Immy was all set through messages. Everyone closed their books for first time and got ready to act. And as planned all closed their door with windows open. To make it real, we guys except Umar all went to different rooms and stayed with other fruits hopefully that was our first time we been to those nerds room.
Suddenly Venky by 12:15, staying with other nerds started shouting through window, it was something there in terrace and everyone started peeping through their windows. It was Immy on terrace slowly crawling like a snail, as of a ghost and he was walking at the extreme end of terrace that look liked Immy was floating in the air. To our surprise though we guys planned it, we ourselves almost got scared seeing Immy’s performance.
And the guys in our room started breathing heavy and I could hear someone from the next room screaming “ALLAH, please save us”. And the guy in my room was holding me tight. To make the anklet sound a real one it was Umar with a bunch of keys who tapped it heavily on floor in front of each room. It threatened them more and whole final shook in dead silence-almost all guys frozen. By 2:00 Dawood messaged us to come out. And as if nothing happened I unlocked the room and told others that we will check what’s happening outside.
All stepped out of room, all thirty gathered there with excitement scary and added that the ghost was tall enough and it was floating and they heard anklet sound and howling also. Immy started his play again, a woman worker fall from third floor while hostel was under construction and it may be her because she died few years before in the same month and he came to know this info from hostel watchman .And all faces was like they all flunked in final semester and lost their jobs. All started to post their views and rumors by our guys. Some sat in group and started discussing it, many started calling other hostel guys who were in their home and explaining them what happened.
It was 3:30,all went back to the room and guys who stayed in 7 rooms clubbed themselves in 3 rooms, they are threatened to that extent and that’s second time they didn’t touch their books. We last two rooms turned music on loudly that we can’t control our laughter for 45 minutes and laughing out loud. And a grand success for our team and Dawood’s plan a great success that finally nerds got distracted for more than 5 hours. Before things get serious next day morning we went to all others room and accepted it was we who all did that and came back. No reaction from them. To our surprise all those nerds came to our room again and before thinking and reacting they hold us all and gave us the hostel’s special birthday bums and proved that they are also final years.
It is the incident that knowingly or unknowingly we got related to managements that’s why we are into MBA now. Yap, you can see there no one taught us teamwork, focus, goal, recruiting, placement,planning,organizing,innovation,etc. And will list you all important terms related to this particular incident.
Planning-it was Dawood’s plan to disturb others and we started to plan on it. Organizing-we all organized a team. Teamwork-all got together as a team and together to threaten the nerds and the nerds who in turn gave us birthday bums. Goal-our ultimate goal is to threaten the nerds and to distract them from studying. Recruiting-it was Dawood who picked up people for the act that is selection of right person for right job and placement is that placing the right person. For ex: Umar for anklet sound and Immy as ghost. Innovation-is that survival is possible if and only if something new prevails and its done by Umar using bunch of keys for anklet sound. This is how someone or other is related to management activities daily. Ant, spider all are best examples for it. And as said “PRACTICE MAKES MAN PERFECT”, it is not by books alone all will get through it, practical application will help them learn a lot. Who is teaching a grocery shop owner accounts, even then he is less educated, he is able to manage at least 100 accounts a day.
So, it is not only learning but the only effect of practical application not only makes a management effective but also effective manager. And let bring the best through it. Hats off to all Managers and the future most successful and successive “MANAGEMENT REBELS”.
