these are not considerd the symptoms of hurry sickness. This is not rememebring things, can fall under 'Alzeimers' or forgetfulness.

Hurry sickeness is
1: Honking agaian and again even when there is red signal infront of you.
2. Thinking of your work while having your lunch and leave halfway through and go back to work station.
3. Watching your watch again and again for your next meeting even when you have enough time for it.

8.Checking emails avery 2 min as if you are the most busy executive in the world.
9. Telling friends that you are usy in a meeting if the call is not important or if your wife is calling.
10. Pointing out small things and making a big fuss out of it.
11. Just want live to prove others that you are the most successful executive on planet earth and the only person busy on the planet.
12. You tend to forget that world is bigger than what you think and without you world can live better. But people tend to beleive the world rotates because of them.
13. Making overseas trip you feel you have climbed mount everest.
14. Using cell phones when corssing roads implying your work is more important than your life.

So who ever shows these symptoms show that they are weak they are hiding behind an excuse saying they are busy they cannot face the real world and are just putting up a show and in a nut shell are a waste.

Jethmalani seeks FBI,SIT, CBI probe into Swiss bank a/cs

Govt must apply all probes to bring back money & do the justice by applying POTA & TADA to Swiss acoount holders.
Bangalore IT top three business man has got Billions of Billions of dollar in the Swis Bank.

Openly challenging the our Political leadeers over all Indian Leadership.
Shive Sena & MNS is first group who has identified the Moist,LTTEs & Terror Malbaris for their protectionism.

Now Australia & Gulf countries has identified them correctly.
India should call back all LTTEs & Terror Malbaris to their respective state, otherwise india has to pay heavy losses across the world.

Bangalore IT companies are Safe Heaven for Moist, LTTEs & Terror Malbaris.

US worries Banglore IT protectionism : As these companies working with MoistLTTEs & Terror Malbaris.

LTTEs & Terror Malbaris have created horror in the whole world, look into the Australian issues, look into Malaysians issues, look into Gulf issues, now look into US issues all you find the traces of LTTEs & Terror Malbaris.

LTTEs & Terror Malbaris has thought protectionism to whole world as they are Non Co-operative in nature the whole world. They understand only Tamil & Malyali they can't adjust in the whole world except in Tamil Nadu & Kerala.

Answers for all the 4 questions was a big 'yes' in the starting stage of my carrier. That time I regularly done overtime work(Not for money; no OT allowance was there) & took all the official problem to home after work. Now I changed a lot. Friends; don't think about family during work & don't think about office during your free time.Relax & enjoy your life.

My good man, you seem to be in such a hurry that you go by only the count of bullet points without studying the matter!

Q1: When you brush your teeth in the morning, are you always doing something else at the same time - finding underwear, choosing a pair of shorts, yelling at the kids?
Q2: When you catch a train or a plane - jumping on a moment before the doors close - do you secretly get a kick out of it?
Q3: When you get into a lift, do you immediately look for the "door-close" button? You may be ignoring the fact that the door closes automatically in four seconds. It must be unimaginable for you to wait that long, isn't it?
Q4: How many times do you press the lift button just because it's taking time to come down from the 16 th floor? Some of you, in fact, keep on banging it as if this action will speed up the arrival of the lift.
