DEALING WITH BUREAUCRATS

HOW TO GET YOUR JOB DONE AT ANY GOVERNMENT OFFICE?
Procedure must for a layman if wants to deal with a government agency

1. Always carry blank papers, carbon paper & a ballpen.

2. Write down application for the work you are visiting particular
office (with CC).

3. Never ever take any verbal promises. They do not stand in reality
as you are not sure that you will meet same person next time.

4. Insist on submitting the application & get signature on Carbon
Copy of the application.

5. If the person on other side of the table says that he can not accept
the application, ask him to write so on the application & sign it along
with stamp & return it to you.

6. If he denies this request then go to his immediate senior & so
on if he also does not accept your application.

All this creates record about how long you have been pursuing the matter.
And this definitely creates pressure on the agency you are dealing with.
No doubt this is time consuming process but if you really want to have
corruption free country, you have to devote time for all this as social
service. (no matter how valuable your time is)

FULLPROOF VASTUSHASTRA (vastu shastra)

Are you a believer of Vastu Shastra?..….then definitely consult a `Vastushastri’. But don’t forget that you are nothing but a consumer & make sure that you are really getting what you are buying. For this…

Get the remedies prescribed by the `Vastushastri’ in writing. e.g. a suggestion by Vastushastri, `If you change your office entrance, the profit will increase by 25%’, shall be in writing & should amount to a contract enforceable by court of law. Because indirectly he is selling you 25% gain in profit.

Getting remedy prescribed in writing is very important as in most of the cases all consultation is verbal. It will be interesting to find out how many `Vastushastris’ put their recommendations in writing & stand by it.

In case of failure, sue the`Vastushastri’ to Court of Law just as a builder, promoter, architect or structural designer, who can be punished for not honouring the contract (/failure).

DO NOT DISTURB

HOW TO GET RID OF PROMOTIONAL TELEPHONE CALLS...............
Almost everybody is experiencing at least an unwanted call every day on an average.
There is one way to make the whole process less frustrating. Just follow this…….

Whenever you get a promotional call from any company, just say `PLEASE HOLD’. Keep aside the phone & continue the work you are already involved in. The person on other end will hang up after 2/3 minutes depending on his/her patience.

This will achieve
1. reduction in irritation
2. satisfaction of making other person realize that
he/she is invading your privacy
3. minimal disturbance in the work
