devil wears prada

In my journey of discovering the written word and the joy of snuggling up with a book in one corner, I have discovered few authors who can transform you into the characters they are portraying in their works. Lauren weisberger does it beautifully.
Sometimes you think you are the boss...the Miranda priestly who is living in nothing short of heaven on earth and sometimes you are fooled into sharing the miseries of Andréa Sachs, the very talented girl who lands up in a fashion magazine by pure chance and luck and has to do the mind numbing tasks of fetching hot coffee for her boss or giving her clothes for laundry. The book is an excellent portrayal of the dilemma faced by anyone who works in the fashion industry….the limelight, the brands , the constant partying and their demands of seeing a new beautiful you every time you turn up .And in the end you do realize that the Cinderella-like existence which seems so lucrative and tempting from the outside takes its own toll too, and that no Gucci, Prada or Jimmy Choo can provide you with the inner satisfaction and happiness that comes from enjoying whatever vocation you choose for yourself. This realization is easier said than done.
All the hype surrounding frustrated bosses and their workers, the highly paid executives who are in a constant fight to go to the top without realizing the void they are creating in themselves, the high attrition rates point very easily to the problem of not loving what they are doing. Although we tend to give varied reasons for our compulsion in carrying along the unwanted jobs, but I sincerely feel there is no such need for anyone to continue doing what they don’t feel like doing or what they don’t really enjoy. I can cite a thousand examples of people who don’t like their professions and are merely dragging their feet to office everyday and sometimes even I do that …but as I said .I have taken a leaf out of this book. An I’ll try my best not to fall into this booby trap…
In the mean time …if u want to have this e-book, just give your email adds…I’ll do the favor …
