So many articles have come up; there were media reports of the death of the software engineers in harness and a cry to include this under trade unions for employee welfare. It is a pity to see these people crushing their minds to develop software, gazing at the screen unmindful of the radiation effects, strain to the eye, body and mind. Naturally the outlet is there in the weekend boozing, taking fast food and indulging in so called pleasure. The MNCs offer gyms, swimming pools, yoga centers in the campus but the former inveigles one irretrivably. The prolonged sitting heats up the testicles and contribute to impotency. The neck and low back are strained; the question is why one should sell the precious self for the sake of money. It is not the IT industry that should change; it is the attitude of the society that money can get peace and happiness that should change; it is the individual who has to change. Who prevents them from taking a brisk walk or practice yoga postures that can set right the postural defects. Is it the companys fault. How can these people spare time to be together and enjoy each others company. There is a great opportunity for choosing friends that may end up in anything; and this search is endless. Abroad people prefer this sort of choosing and ending until they have the stamina; once they lose they learn to live with one person. Our ancestors knew this and that is why one man one woman concept came and still sustains despite the sickening perversions

This article has provided statistical evidence to what most people already knew. But it is our attitude which is responsible for this. The lure of quick money makes people work for most of the time thereby ignoring family and social life. In most other countries people follow strict work schedules. But in India, people keep slogging like donkeys just to get that additional increment. The situation worsens if both are earning. Here the bond between the couple is that of money and less of romance. Both keep working hard and minting money while no time is given to develop the relationship. Unless people realise that the rat race for easy money is not going to take them anywhere, the problem will continue.

Fully agree with KETAN. Men had Women have to sit down and think. HHAT DO WE WANT IN LIFE ? Wise men and women will have good goals in life and they will make good plans and rules to make their lives fruitful and worth living. Unfortunately most of the men and women do not have common sense. They think career is everything. They think fun is everything. They have NO plans about life at all. They have NO plans for their children. They live like COWS, looking for good food and taking care of immediate needs in lives. Once people decide to live without good goals, we start seeing divorces and rapes and other crimes. The bottom line is GOD HAS GIVEN MAN AND WOMAN BRAIN TO THINK AND CAPABILITY TO PLAN THEIR FUTURE. If that GOD GIVEN abilities are not utilised, people end up with huge troubles.

are bhai agar oil khatam to sab kuch khatam better keep ur oils with u as u can neither beg, borrow or steal from another its nature gift its better u keep , lose it and then dont repent for it
Whats written in this article is very true. I work for one of India's top IT firms in Bangalore. We should work 9.5 hours a day. Ok, I do know that people work 12 hours in some cases. But I am talking about IT companies in Bangalore.
What do IT companies in Bangalore do ? Provide IT services to companies in US? If an American says, you guys work nights ... then thats final. No second word, just follow what yankees say. In some shape or form, we are slaves to US and UK. If they don't give projects, we are doomed. Why can't the big heads in this field so something indiginous.
Talking abt social life in Bangalore. Theres none. We do get some time over the weekend and if u r in Call centre, then forget about weekend as well. Even business development guys, have to work till 3 AM or 4 AM, calling US and getting projects.
No wonder the social life are affected and marriage ends up in divorce. Sad but true !!

Truly said, in some country's monetary is incripted, "Money is the root cause of all evils"
Members of Women Commision sometimes act in haste without verfying facts from other person.
They want men to be punished for adultery but women to be exemted.They have gone to the extent of believing whatever a woman says.Many women have misused the laws and freedom given by our law to protect them.
Its Women right groups which entertains false allegations of women to blamed.
2,493 is the no of divorces for 2006. come on!! this is a very small number. why make a mountain of a molehill. the percentage of divorces might have always remained constant with respect to the number of poeple working in the IT sector. the article tries to show that we are loosing our family values. in these days of stress, uncertainity, family values are getting stronger.

I was about to write a strong reply to your foolish blah blah. Then I saw your name and decided not to write. Initially did not know that a known donkey has written this message. I may get kicked by the donkey if I try to make a donkey wise. Therefore I leave you donkey to continue with your blah blah.
There should be clear communication on the work patterns and the way of living (simple , posh, feigning posh) and the partners should agree on the same. This reduces chaos. The physical part is not a major part of the story

Within week they seperated and at divorced later. Both are at present in USA. The guy got married after two months but the gal is still widow...
