Why Not Permit Rooms @ Office ;-)

Recently visited a local permit room in our lovely city of Chennai, where we can find all categories of people. Got hooked to lot many discussions going on there and some really impressed me a lot. Just thought of sharing them with you all…

Scene 1:I came across two guys from a different (IT) company it seems, they started their discussions casually and some real great best practices sharing happened between them. Those guys discussed right from Coffee Vending Machines to the C*O strategies (Of Course some fun and comments here and there). They were pointing some good decisions taken by their management guys as well as criticized some flaws they made. Some real new ideas too boosted there in the discussion…

Scene 2: This Scene took place none other than a petty shop next to the permit room, there I saw a daily coolie expressing some management concepts over his hand phone. Looks like there were some conflict between his employees and he is the supervisor in some other site, he is just advising his counterpart saying (in Tamil) “Vela seira idathula naama yellam santhoshama irukkanum, Appo than vela seiyya pudikkum. Ithula poi nee chi naan chi nnu sonna vela seyyave mudiyathu…” meaning “We should feel happy at our work place only then we will feel great to work, In the mean time if we find faults on others they we will not be in a position to work at all”. Just to take this to our corporate world we keep on insisting about FUN at Work, Great Work Environment, Team Building Etc.. but this guy has simply expressed what we are struggling to implement in out work place…

Keeping these things in mind why not all the Corporate Companies have a Permit Room in their premises ;-)… Hey this is on the funny side.. My Question is why people come out with such great ideas in permit room and why not at work… :-)
