Mobile Jewellery Shop – Lalithaa

Posted on March 17, 2018 by gcmouli

Disclaimer: Most of what I talk about below – are my observations from Southern parts of India, and might not be applicable to Northern parts, which I am not very familiar with. Lalithaa Jewellery seems to have introduced a mobile jewellery shop in the form of a modified long chassis bus. I think this is…

Informational Call for Potential Leadership Hiring

Posted on February 28, 2018March 15, 2018 by gcmouli

After a recent (particularly depressing) informational call for a Leadership position, I thought, I would pen down my thoughts on how an ‘optimal’ first conversation should be. Some disclaimers: They are in no particular order of importance. These are my opinions. Your mileage may vary – but I would love to hear them, if you…

Disclaimer Generation

Posted on April 20, 2017 by gcmouli

This is my opinion, based on my research and preferences. You should do your own, to figure out, yours. I overheard a young man say this to his father last weekend. Somehow, it just stuck inside my mind, and kept coming back. Today morning, I thought about it a little more. I stepped back, and…

Solar for the home

Posted on June 18, 2015 by gcmouli

Disclaimer: I am no expert in Solar power generation, nor am I an Electrical Engineer. So what I am about to request/propose might be the most absurdest thing – but for me, ignorance is bliss, and I shall propose. The biggest problem that I see about solar power is that it is available only during the…

Twitter Trends – UI Change?

Posted on April 23, 2015April 23, 2015 by gcmouli

A little while ago, I wrote a post on the awesome new feature in twitter web UI, the quote-and-RT. I am loving it But before the euphoria died down, I just noticed that, twitter has made yet another UI (or maybe trying out on a subset population). When I log in to twitter today morning,…

You lost me, Faasos

Posted on April 18, 2015April 18, 2015 by gcmouli

Faasos was one restaurant chain which I really wanted to succeed (with me!). I do not really care for it to succeed for everybody. These things are very individual. I loved their wraps the first time I tried them a year or two ago. They were in a much smaller scale. Their phone ordering was…

Aur Dikhao – Bordering on Linguistic Chauvinism?

Posted on April 15, 2015 by gcmouli

I recently noticed something awkward when I was searching for a product in amazon.in. I had searched for USB hubs and when I scrolled down to the bottom of the list, I saw this: As much as a nationalist that I am, as much as I am pragmatic to think a common language of communication…

On Flipkart and Dabbawalas

Posted on April 10, 2015 by gcmouli

I read an article today that Flipkart is beginning to work with the famous Dabbawalas of Mumbai for last mile delivery. The efficiency of these tiffin box carriers of Mumbai has been lauded so much that there is even an Harvard Business Review Case Study on them. Much has been written about these men who…

Don’t do their work!

Posted on November 24, 2014November 24, 2014 by gcmouli

–Rant alert– I have ranted a little bit about the implementation approach of the Swachh Bharath campaign by some folks earlier, but it looks like the line is being crossed (literally) in some situations. Spot cleaning: I am OK with spot cleaning. There are some spots which look super super shabby and the municipality/corporation has been…
