Recently I visited my
nationalised bank’s branch to transact some business.
I had to deposit one
check, deposit some cash and updated my passbook.
The bank was an
air-conditioned one with about 20 people working in a relaxed and cool
atmosphere .There was not much rush of customers in the bank.
I had to deposit the
check in box, deposit the cash in machine and again the passbook was updated by
machine .Then I started wondering what all the employees are doing.
We know that the bank
employees are a well paid lot, have job security, with fixed
working hours, enjoy
many allowances and benefits and enjoy all national holidays.
They seem to be having
a cosy working life compared to millions of Indians who struggle to make a
living everyday. Even people working in the IT industry do not have such a
working atmosphere .Nowadays customers can transact most of the business online
so there is not much work pressure are it used to be in the manual era.
I discussed this with
a friend of mine who works for a bank like this .He started arguing with me
saying what you see is not real picture or truth.
In fact he told me that
they are going to strike work on Friday against the policies of the government
and for better working conditions
My Reaction was “are
you serious? “or “ are you kidding “
