Re-tale of Retail: Retail Consultant- who the hell is that?
http://retaleofretail.blogspot.com/2009/03/retail-consultant-who-hell-is-that.html
An attempt at telling the story of Retail. Indian Retail. Monday, March 16, 2009. Retail Consultant- who the hell is that? When asked “what do you do? I answer that ‘I am a Retail Consultant’. This nearly always fetches me blank stares till I go further and explain that my line of work involves everything from the retail layout to the communication inside a store. Those who are slightly communication savvy understand this. Those who are not, interpret it as designing Malls and Shops. I have survived twel...

Don't Shoot the Messenger
http://calliopem-erato.livejournal.com/tag/real%20life
Dont Shoot the Messenger. I feel, I say, I think. Entries by tag: real life. November 30th, 2015. I love this job. The silence around me, broken by the clacking sounds of the keyboard. The fact I didnt need to interact too much was an added bonus. Sure at times I end up falling asleep while typing but for the first time in many years I found the work I enjoyed because I can move freely. Im not getting any younger or healthier. Ive been closer to death in more ways than I wanted but here you go, Ill l...

Don't Shoot the Messenger

Dont Shoot the Messenger. I feel, I say, I think. Entries by tag: cats. April 28th, 2014. Preparing for my final defense which would be scheduled on May 15. It’s still sinking in that I’m on my last defense. This is a crucial time for me because this is where 5 people will decide whether I graduate or not (I am past caring about graduating with honors). Buut, I discovered Brothers Conflict. It’s based from a light novel (? Where the girl ends up having 13 stepbrothers when he father remarried. Hazel and ...

http://calliopem-erato.livejournal.com/tag/real-life
Dont Shoot the Messenger. I feel, I say, I think. Entries by tag: real-life. June 17th, 2015. Work has kept me busy but Im also putting it off for quite sometime. So here goes:. I failed in my masters thesis and that meant Im not going to graduate. Why? Because according to the 2 panel members that failed me I didnt follow their feedback/recommendations. I provided the reasons why I didnt but I guess that didnt help. Did they want to fail me? Did I do something wrong? So what should I do next? I had unde...

Re-tale of Retail: A walk through Reliance Mart
http://retaleofretail.blogspot.com/2009/03/walk-through-reliance-mart.html
An attempt at telling the story of Retail. Indian Retail. Monday, March 23, 2009. A walk through Reliance Mart. Let me start with a disclaimer: this is not written with a motive to discredit Reliance or any other retailer, rather it’s a self study to understand the Indian retail scenario. The place is strangely quiet perhaps my choice of a Wednesday morning is the reason or the store’s inability to play some music is to blame. Passing through I reach the groceries section where I ask a passing staff memb...

roadblock - Don't Shoot the Messenger
http://calliopem-erato.livejournal.com/206519.html
Dont Shoot the Messenger. I feel, I say, I think. June 4th, 2014. My final defense did not go too well. I had to make some revisions and redo a procedure. I could kill my panel members right now. So just to shut them up, I decided to do what they said and repeated the ashing procedure. Went well. Submitted my data to my adviser. Then his laptop got reformatted and I ended up doing the data adjustment on my own. Now my thesis adviser is part of my hit list now (like I would actually kill him).

got a new kitty - Don't Shoot the Messenger
http://calliopem-erato.livejournal.com/206655.html
Dont Shoot the Messenger. I feel, I say, I think. Got a new kitty. July 12th, 2014. Her name is Princess Camilla Tyrande. I got her during a birthday party of our former parish priest. She’s hyper and very sweet. She and Hazel met and never really got along at first but at least the growls lessened. Garfield? Meh, he doesn’t care. On real life, I would be repeating my final defense by the 30th and hope this time is the FINAL time I would have to deal with my panel members. Where it all began.

Re-tale of Retail: Category – Management, Captaincy & Leadership skills
http://retaleofretail.blogspot.com/2009/04/category-management-captaincy.html
An attempt at telling the story of Retail. Indian Retail. Monday, April 13, 2009. Category – Management, Captaincy and Leadership skills. Is a retailing concept in which the total range of products sold in a store is broken down into discrete groups of similar or related products; these groups are known as product categories. Each category is then run like a "mini business" (Business Unit) in its own right, with its own set of turnover, targets and strategies. The above is the spiel of text books. The te...
