i came to know that the boss has done a lot of exercise to close his blog. And the host was in pressure so his blog was removed may be for few days. Thanks for all the active participants. Peace

Samsara, Well said! Couldn't agree more. These are spoiled & pampered azhole kids who think they can bully their way out in the real world. It is useless to try to get some sense in them.

Here's one for the underdog who's getting bashed left and right by our 'corporate-world visionaries' Lets talk about the money.......6000 Rs for a month? Damn I knew people from BNKS who got A levels and were teaching tutoring classes and bagging almost 20K a month. That too without a bachelor's degree.I was offered to teach the TOEFL for Rs. 10K, with my high school education. That's 2hrs a day, 6 days a week. Hell when I wrote freelance articles for a national paper, I got Rs. 600 per article. And no I didn't jump through any hoops. And no I am not trying to brag here. I am pointing out the disparity in salary. Bottom line: you were getting shitty pay. Now all you capitalist folks don't start out with your Econ 101 baloney and market value. I think if you were getting 6K or even 8K as a programmer, you were really getting ripped off, especially if you are working in a project for a European company. I know this since I am a programmer. To the guy who said programmers are not engineers. Dude, I have an engineering degree and programming is as much design and analysis oriented as whatever the fu(k you think engineers do! For outsourced programming jobs, the general rule of thumb is you get at least 20% of what a programmer here (in US) makes....the Indians working at one company i know earn 50% of what they would be paid here. Lets take 20% as the minimum and now 60K a year for a programmers in US. That's 12K USD a year...so easily 50K NRs a month. I have heard that programmers can easily get 1K USD a month in India...And no they aren't guys with years of experience. And don't tell me he should have moved to India. Regarding the original poster's salary......It's corporate slavery at its worse (or best) Hey what else can you do? File a lawsuit for voiding your verbal contract? We know how fast the judiciary is in lawsuits. Sometimes it's public humiliation and only public humiliation in Nepal that discourages people from exploiting others. Some of you folks dissing this guy here you have the balls..those over heated balls that have turned you impotent since you worked your ass off and climbed the corporate ladder in the US of A. Kudos to you...kudos to you telling this guy to face the real world. And how dare you do that while you break the law, going to ocean city when you were a student and working off campus on an F1 visa, taking 6 years to graduate and finally getting a job through consultancies coz your sorry ass couldn't land a good job and after years of 'slave work' now you've got some room to breath with your Green Card and you have to prove yourself that the real world is mean and cruel and everyone's sorry ass deserves to go through hell just because yours did? And since your balls didn't fully recover now you are trying to man up from that eunuch state of which you won't recover from? If so, then I feel sorry for you than I feel for Chirayu. Alright, my rant is over...I will take the bullet one at a time. FF

We got a classical war between Capitalism and Socialism Capitalism praise the employer because the employer creates job Socialism favors the employee because it always says one becomes richer exploiting the workers Both sides are correct I am inspired with the former case

Whoever are supporting this guy for whatever he did to defame his employer, my simple question to you is "Will you hire this guy after learning these facts ?"
prem chopda Aug 14, 2009 12:30 AM
Good question Izaap... I would like to hear the answer from those people who are supporting that guy But the question arise for those people also who supported the Boss of that guy. Would you like to work for the Boss who love to exploit his employees, who pay as little as Peanut as salary?

Interesting argument, here is my take on it. Salary: Instead of comparing the salary to an Indian or an US programmer level, why not compare the salary to a Nepali programmer. My current monthly Nepali salary is equal to my weekly salary in US, that too when I started as an engineer. Boss claiming inflated salary from client: I don’t think we should be surprised by this practice because I have seen NGOs and INGOs do it, so why not IT companies? I remember a friend of mine, who worked for a consultancy, telling me that her boss charged his clients three times her salary for her work. Salary demands: I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion on how much salary they should get. But it would definitely be wise to survey the market first. I remember interviewing candidates for the position of assistant manager and there were fresh MBA graduates expecting exorbitant salaries. In comparison, there were people with 10 years experience willing to work for half the MBA’s expected salary. Since I am a boss myself, I guess this is a biased view. Nevertheless, here are some helpful tips for people working in Nepal. 1. Always have it in paper, the terms and conditions that you and your boss have agreed to. 2. Always read your contract carefully. What does it say about you taking holidays? Are you entitled to sick leave, personal leave (vacation), casual leave? If you are just starting then you are not. I guess if your employer’s parent company is visiting, I would say it’s definitely not a good time to take a day off. I would definitely react the same way. About the Valentine’s Day, if it’s in your contract then you are entitled to your day off, even if I kick and scream, 3. The first six months that you work, you are considered an apprentice, therefore companies normally offer lower salaries and no perks. It’s only after six months that you become a permanent employee and get all the perks. Unless you are on contract, then things maybe different. 4. But even if you are on contract, if you have worked more than six months in a company (unless the company is smart), you have legal rights in Nepal which includes, your boss just can’t fire you for any reason. So in your case, if you had crossed six months, your boss can only give you a warning. You can only get fired for extreme cases. 5. In Nepal, most companies have some sort of salary allowances similar to the government. So for example, even if your salary is Rs. 4000 per month, the bonuses and allowances could bump it up to Rs. 8000 per month. So working on contract may not always be the best idea. 6. If you sign a contract, it is binding to both you and your employer. So check out the contract and see if your boss did anything wrong. I read people talking about Capitalist and Socialist sides. Here in Nepal, the government protects employees and labourers. If you happen to go to labour court, odds are the labourers will win 90% of the time. Also, even if your company is going on a loss, you cannot just fire employees, either you stop hiring replacements or your employees resign. Only way to lay off your employees is to close down the company itself but that too would require you to notify the government labour department in months advance.

Would I hire this guy? Now lets say if I owned a company and I had a choice between everyone here dissing this guy and the guy himself? 1. Most of you folks ripping this guy apart probably can't write two lines of decent code. Even if you did, you would land yourself in an infinite while loop and start scratching your over-heated balls! 2.Looking at his writing, this guy can probably write a better memo than some folks who've been educated here in the US. 3. And why not hire him? Because someday I will be referred to as 'the asshole' in another blog? You folks scared of that? Then suck it up and be a better employer rather than exploit your employees. I won't hire a boss who is silents while others are being exploited, be it discrimination or something else. So the answer is I won't hire some of the experience folks here who are telling this guy to live in the real world because your ethics made a new low when you failed to note that the guy was being exploited and he has rights. Looks like you folks also exploit others and you are scared of someone humiliating you!

What is with the argument that he should not have morally publicized how he was treated? And Boss no matter what they do/say are always right? I would have been strongly concerned if it was not the blogger who wrote about the person. But this guy is the employee and he deserves his right to write for himself about his BOSS, in his BLOG. Thank God, he didnt send it over to "THE BOSS" which would alert every of the so-called bosses in the country. Just because you can exploit, doesn't mean you have to exploit. If you deem the employee unproductive within few months' time, why did you hire them on the first place. If you deem the employee morally illiterate, again why did you hire him on the first place. Greed breeds hatred. Now face it Asshole and try to improve your US-learned top-notch MBA skills within a small organization in a small nation!

dude..fk that shit! why u letting some prick headed a-hole shut ur blog down?? just open new one in wordpress, or blogspot or one of the thousands of other blogging sites.. lets see if he got the balls to shut you down then! Its a sad thing that the comments there got shut down as well! there was a good discussion going there but that a-hole forced you to close..kinda reminds me of that Dev guy going back to nepal to threaten that adopted girl not to return.. hepnu dinu hunna saathi... thats the kind of mentality that lets child exploitation/slavery continue in our household..the kind of mentality that says "this is how it works in the REAL world b!tch, so shut ur face up". I dont believe that crap, and if you don't as well, dont surrender your voice.

A US educated MBA becoming so low to go after and shut down the blog, it tells you right there that he has something to hide. Seems like he has not heard about freedom of speech, maybe they did not teach him at the school back then. This so call disgruntle/whistle blower (whether true or a complete lie) has the right to express his opinion on his blog (that is what is for-it is not a newspaper fellas). It is up to us to analyze the fact from fiction and come to a decision. The Asshole Boss should have posted a response instead, telling his side of the story. Apparently he seems to be more interested to subdue the spread of the news.Who knows, this disgruntle employee might have a tape/video of the conversation, the asshole is scared, maybe? Boss, these are modern times. Why not you post your side of the story? Disgruntle employee-you need not be scared to post anything on your blog, it is your own opinion and if someone comes after you, as long as you have a legitimate proof to back your statement, law will be on your side.Now put your blog back and spell his full name.

I'd caution those taking sides that there are always two sides to any story. Chirayu has brought forward his side, convincingly so - and more power to him for speaking up and I wish him well - but I can only wonder what the other side, namely NSB's side, to this story is.

Guys, I am changing my host. That AHole contacted my domain registrar and my host. My host is complaining and I don't want to put my other blogs hosted in the same hosting account at risk. Thank you all of you who supported me to make that post a success. All of my ex-colleagues from my previous workplace visited my blog and even helped me in making the post popular by posting it elsewhere and forwarding the post’s URL by emails. I am happy that all of my ex-colleagues now know what I went through and I am happy that they helped me spread the word. Other than my colleagues, 3000+ now know how skilled grads are exploited in Nepal by AHoles like my ex-boss. My case is just the tip of the ice-berg, there are probably hundreds of cases like mine in Nepal that should make it to blogs. I hope my case helped to raise the awareness among employees and AHole bosses as well. AHole bosses, STOP EXPLOITING LABOR!!!, otherwise you might be exposed by someone else on his/her blog! I really feel sad for the AHole now. I wonder how he would raise his head in front of his staffs who have read my post. What remains with him now is a bunch of staffs who helped me spread his asshole-ness. I take it as MISSION ACCOMPLISHED ! Last edited: 19-Aug-09 02:14 AM

There are several websites where you can unload your grudge against anyone, be that be your boss, your doctor, professor, or any business that swindled you! No need to have your own blog site. Some are here: http://www.ripoffreport.com/ http://www.complaints.com/ http://www.iripoff.com/ Here are some tips to deal with bad bosses: http://www.bigbadboss.com/BAD_... http://www.badbossology.com/fo... Here is an interesting poll: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.... According to this poll, 87% of people in the US quit his/her job because of bad boss (I was one of the quitters!).. 51% quit at least once due to bad boss. So Chirayu has lots of frinds in the US.
