Happy Majdoor Diwas to all of our so-called Majdoor folks! Thanks to our Maobaadi folks, hamro majdoors are having a field day while our business-wallahs are like 'MayDay, MayDay... we are going down!' but there is no one to save them!
Yes, all trade unions should work to improve the conditions of the workers but our trade unions are nothing but cash cows for our political parties! If you are thinking of coming back and thinking of doing business in KTM then my 'guffadi' advice would be 'Please don't!'
GO Trekking, bungee-jumping or take some acid and dance all night @ the Last Resort' but don't even think about investing in your so-called dream project!
The problem in Nepal right now is ... you can hire all u want but if your business goes downhill then you can't fire coz if u do then our trade union-wallahs will come down and padlock your business! Yes, no negotiation, no baarta... either it's their way or the highway. But even the highway is closed... sabai thau maa banda!
So the best option would be to join a trade union, join your rival's business as a low-level worker, start an 'Andolan' and then take over the business! Yes, nothing has changed so far. Jasko Shakti, uskai bhakti!
If I ever get married and my wife happens to give birth to twins then I would probably name them Shakti and Bhakti!
Yes, we all know that workers are paid peanuts in Nepal but what the @#$! is our government doing? Paani, Batti, Khaney-kura pani provide garna sakdaina bhaney, ghanta ko ganatantra, loktantra ko guff haki-rakhe-ko?
And our Nepali workers are funny bunch... Nepal ma suko na-maar-ney tara Bidesh ma gaya-rey , 18 ghanta kaam garna sakcha! Even in KTM, if you want to build a house then it's much cheaper and reliable to hire 'Desi' workers. They will finish the job on time and they do their job but our 'Nepali' brothers are never satisfied with the so-called daily wages!
Yes, we all want more... and the only way to make money in KTM ... well, join a Mao-baadi union, show up for work, goof around and if your employer says, 'You are fired' then gather your 'friends' and burn down the place!
But the funny thing is that our big businesses are doing all the exploiting but it's the small businesses who are suffering from them 'union-wallahs' ... a friend of mine used to work for a media house for only 7,000 Rupees! I don't get it.... these arseholes invest 100 crores but they don't want to pay their employees and many of our so-called 'graduate' folks sometimes don't get paid for like three months!
If the Maobaadies really want to make a difference then instead of just sun-ka-ing factory workers, they should also look after the 'professional' workers who are actually making less than security guards and restaurant workers!
But who the @#$! is going to listen? Nepal maa 'banda' na garey samma , kasai ko bau lay sunney wala chaina? Terai has been 'banda' for the last 7 days... Kathmanduites are suffering but our politicians are still fighting with each other about the NA Army Chief!
Who the @#$! cares about the NA or the PLA? We just want baas, gaas and kaapas.... but looks like we will all have to go abroad (for a bun-baas) if we really want to survive!
And for folks like us, who have come back so that we thought we could make a difference... well, there's nothing we can do unless we join a political outfit and if we don't then we will spend the rest of our lives, bitching and whining while our rajniti-ma-lagey-ko chamchas haru will have a nice time, dining & wining!
