30 degrees and boiling. Awww!🤗

It is quite normal here but , yes, we have to be indoors as the heat is unbearable.😒

While yours is dry, ours is humid, Sahiba!😊


Where's Rekha and Jiya? Been a while since we heard from you two!
Aparna has gotten busy too! 🤗

>>>>Yes, where are you, Baisas?😃

HOLA EVERYONE

AUNTY PLEASE KEEP WARM. USE A BLOWER. WEAR LEGGINGS. I FIND THEM REALLY SNUG AND WARM. DELHI IS HOT N HUMID AT 38 SO FEEL FREE TO SEND SOME COLD OUR WAY

BINDUP LOVELY MORNING MESSAGE DEAR DEEP AND TRUE

VATHSY NICE TO HEAR FROM YOU

AGREE WITH BOND N LASHY ABOUT INDIAN WORKING HOURS- WORK LIFE BALANCE IS A RELATIVELY NEW CONCEPT HERE N FOLLOWED BY VERY FEW COMPANIES. USUALLY ONLY MULTI NATIONAL COMPANIES HAVE A FIVE DAY WEEK AND EVEN THEN PHONES N LAPTOPS STAY ON THROUGH THE WEEKEND. UNLIKE OTHER COUNTRIES WHERE A RIGOROUS FIVE DAY WORK ETHIC IS FOLLOWED AND PHONES ARE OFF

LANA ENJOY YOUR CONCERT DEAR. I TOO LIKE HEMANT KUMAR A LOT

SUPERB LINES ON PICS SANDHYA VATHSY N LANA

ME ALL GEARED UP FOR THE FINAL. WATCHING IT AT A FRIENDS PLACE AS A GROUP WITH SNACKS N FOOD OUTSOURCED

Oh, dear, looks like employees in India are over-worked-so little time for family and leisure.

That is the case in most developing and under-developed nations... I'd take it the state of employees in China, Burma, and other similar nations would be worse if not as bad

In contrast, Malaysian workers are more fortunate because the unions are very vocal when it comes to employees' welfare. 😃

>>>👍🏼

Lashy Sahiba, civil servants here have a fixed number of annual leave that they are entitled to depending on their years of service. Employers must make sure that the said leave is taken ( a minimum number is set ) while the rest of the unused leave can be accumulated for monetary compensation when they retire.

Same here! 😃

13 weeks off- wow! Teachers here enjoy ten weeks of school holidays but are allowed 10 days of special leave to take care of personal matters apart from sick leave.

I guess it'd amount to the same then... of course, during this time off it's not like the teachers don't take some of their work home... or at least prepare for the upcoming terms! 😊

So on a worker's welfare spectrum, India would be on one end and Europe on the other with Malaysia in the middle.😃

The Scandanavian countries are the most 'Union' and 'Labour laws' oriented.

Maternity leave runs as long as 2 years! 😉 Even in the US it's strictly 3 months in most companies! In the UK we get a year maternity leave (6 months paid + 6 months unpaid)

There is no close shop time imposed and eateries /coffee shops and restaurants here open as early as 6 a.m. Some even operate 24 hours. 😊

Cafes, of course, open very early to cater to the office crowds... but they'd close early too...

any shop that had extended opening hours will HAVE to have their employees on a shift system...

Unfortunately, our indoors is unbearable too... 😡
And Rose, it's humid here too... we are a relatively small land-mass surrounded by seas on all sides😉
But yes, the dry-spell is 🤔

Do not worry about why only you are experiencing all the sufferings in the world. Avoid those who do not show love. After this week, all the sufferings will stop. You can live happily with your husband. All problems will disappear. You will prosper. You will live very happily.

For the Shehzaade..

Parrot astrology

Tamilcube parrot has picked the card with Lord Krishna for you.

You have Mangal and Shani dhoshas. But, do not disrepect anyone due to this. Due to great difficulties, do not hate your friend. There will be quarrels with him. Your associates will confuse you. You will suffer misjudgement. All will become rightwhen you continue to pray to Navgrahas.

For Farooq..

Parrot astrology


Your present place is not comfortable. Even changing the place is also not useful. There will be a lot of hurdles to your efforts. You will not be able to accomplish anything as per your expectations. Your family also will not respect you. This will continue for one month. So, be careful during this period.

For Mahendar.

The bad planets are causing a lot of difficulties. Take it as your fate, . Before this also you lost your wealth and business. Now, you are worried again. All these will change in three months. Until then, be patient.

But temperatures are relative da... in cities that rarely ever go below 25 Celsius, 40 is relatively easier step up...
In cities where it drops to 0 Celsius for longer periods of the year - 30 is too hot!

Hello everyone, hello Lashy dear,
I have been MIA since 3 days, apologize!!
Was catching up on my store related paperwork after my return from India. Also my son will be going away next month for college, bit busy with that.

Will have all the time in the world after that!

Bindu dear congrats on your new job!

Aparna how are you doing dear? And the little one? Hope you have been healthy!

Periyamma always a pleasure to read your posts, you bring something fresh and unique to our HBAS house everyday!

Lana finally you are back! Glad you are doing ok now! Everyone missed you terribly here!

Beautiful poems from our talented girls/ladies here!

Rose, Kal, Kuki, BinduP, Vathsy, Selvi, Lavanya, Manu, and everyone else...🤗

Author Sahiba how was your son's play? Always a beautiful thing to watch them on stage performing!!

All the musings you posted was mwaaah... 👍🏼

I am in Bangor, Maine this weekend, Hari wanted to visit his friend, so drove 7 hrs just for that!!

It is hard to type on the phone!

I have not responded to C50 yet and you will be posting C51 soon!! I guess I will incorporate both together!!

And yes I can't imagine life after HBAS, even though I joined recently, it has become a habit/routine to check in here. It is a guilty conscience if I don't check in with all of you!! But I don't want to think about that now, want to enjoy and relish the time with you all!! Love you all!!

Lavanya, always exciting to watch sports with friends especially if you all are cheering for the same team. 👍🏼

Lashy Sahiba, agree with you about the welfare of employees in certain countries. I think China is quite notorious for exploitation of human labour and inhumane working conditions.

So , how are you keeping your cool in this sweltering heat, Sahiba?😉
