US

Oil is gushing in the Gulf. Ocean life is massively devastated. Fishermen are going broke. Industries dependent on Gulf and Gulf oil are facing huge losses.

So, who is to blame?  Who is responsible for drilling? Who is responsible for the rig? Who buys oil from them? Rig owner is Transocean. Rig contractor is Halliburton. BP only buys oil from them. So now the question is, if I buy gas from a gas station, and it explodes, is it my fault? Because I did not make sure the station follows regulations? Because I buy a lot of gas and hence the owners doesn’t care? What’s the logic? [click to continue…]

I am back, but…

with a major brain freeze!

I know I am supposed to be back in the blogging world with a “BANG” and many travelogue posts. Unfortunately, I am hit with a bug. A very dangerous and undead bug which is referred to as –  “H1B sponsorship” bug. I am looking for help, advice, guidance and light at the end of the tunnel. It’s a turbulent time. We are planning to move out from US if economical and, naturally, employment scenes are not showing any more signs of improvement. I am in dire need of a H1B sponsorship from any company in any part of US. If there aren’t any opportunities, we are thinking of packing our bags and moving out of US by end of next year. Period.

Besides job searching, I have many ideas in the workings already. Self employment is one of them. In what? To be truthful, I am still in negotiations back and forth and I can’t reveal any more. But I am very indecisive at the moment, and hoping for more suggestions, advice and moral support from my blog friends. I guess, it’s trying times for all of us.

Film & TV writers are on strike, which means everything except reality TV could halt production. Do you support the strike? Are any of your favorite shows in jeopardy?

I don’t think this issue is worth any consideration. This is a non essential service and of no direct impact to people. In this world where we are dealing with harsh economic conditions and security issues around the globe, these people are resorting to strike on public place. This is as ridiculous as it can get. Who cares if they are on strike? Only if they block the traffic, no one otherwise. There is a place for everything and an audience as well. I think they are blowing their trumpet when no one is listening. I am not writing because I have an opinion about them. I am just disgruntled about the whole issue. It attracts unnecessary attention and is actually a distraction. The lesser said is better ).
