Recession Effect

Recession has shown it's ugly face last year and still continues to terrify everyone around the globe. Companies are taking strict measures to cut down the extra expenditure and minimize the losses. The Company I work for is no exception, Initially i.e. before recession there used to be free biscuits and diet coke lying around in the break out area waiting to be picked up. But now a days the biscuits have vanished in thin air and the coke is no longer free but chained with a 20 rupees price tag. And all the employees have made their truce with this fact , obviously who wants to loose his/her job over some stupid biscuit.

However something funny happened last friday, I was about to make a cup of coffee for myself and suddenly I realize that there were no sugar packets over there , and it so happened that on thrusday night I saw on television about the recent hike in price of sugar, I was terrified with the mere thought that the sugar packets might face the same plight as the biscuits. However proving my fears unnecessary, the sugar packet repository was soon replenished. :)
