Management Concepts Learnt And Applied - Planet-I

'Canteeneering' - A TISSian’s Perspective Of A Fieldwork Observation

 A typical day at fieldwork encompasses several phases, right from getting up early, boarding a local train, rustling through the crowd, getting to meet employees on a typical ‘Monday’, hearing about ‘last Sunday’s party’, getting fresh assignments to work upon and of course food, which definitely forms a major part of the day.

I am a typical connoisseur of food and food for me is definitely a highly motivating factor (if at all I find a nexus with Herzberg’s motivation theory). And I was pleasantly surprised to find the variety of food that too at a subsidised cost. Every cafeteria is a spacious hall which has a capacity to accommodate more than two hundred people. The thing that struck me along with this observation is that there is a place near the plates, which boldly mentions: “Strictly Vegetarian”. Being a vegetarian myself, I initially wasn’t much bothered by the diktat, however, after having a discussion on the dining table, I came across a lot of thoughts and judgments. “Can an employer control the eating habits of its employees?”. “Is it a part of the policy?”. “Does this violate the human rights quotient and more importantly the liberty of individuals”.

While Trump supporters erupted in joy, Hillary supporters were out on streets with placards reading, ‘Not My President.' All the drama apart, the perceived David had once again won against the seemingly overconfident Goliath.
