Working in a diffrent culture
May 25, 2007

Is difficult. I am working in this for three months now. I feel excluded , as I am the only woman in my team and all my coleague are nice and helpful but that is only when I approach for any help. Otherwise I am not part of their office jokes...football conversations, politics, office politics etc.. I am only good for conversation around weather.

May be the fact that i am a woman and from a diffrent culture which is percieved conservative inhibits them.

I tried to break ice cupple of times but it appears as if I am digging an iceberg as there is more ice benith the ice. Any suggesstions, advice on as how do i gate crash british male dominated team will be helpful.

Thanks in advance oh by the way i must worn you I might ask more help in future....

Monsoon mayhem
Aug 3, 2005



We are having worst monsoon of century and record breaking rains. Streets are flooded in many states in India, Dams are overflowing, bridges are submerged in swelling rivers. So many people have died because of floods and landslides. Bombay was worst hit. All my friends and relatives are safe and dry now but by and large all had a terrible night on street or in office last Tuesday.
My mother had two feet water in her lounge and things were floating. My brother had to walk in waist deep water to reach his residence. His car completely vanished under water in his parking.
It was red alert in my city yesterday I took a leave and relaxed at home. Today we are having infrequent spells of sunshine after almost a week.
