Wondering if Recession was there long before

Right now when we are recession struck and loosing jobs the one thought that circles our mind is it would be better if I had some land of my own.. I would have rather gone there to try out my luck with agriculture than to remain in this uncertain world to wait until I get fired.
But wait I have a question was recession there long before in the times when it was not a democracy but autocracy, when people were not employed in BPOs, IT industries, or High paying jobs but were simpletons who used to work for their kings army or were farmers and peasants. Where would they thought of going in case they faced Recession.
Probably they would have moved out to someother teritory , greener pasteur or got killed by their arrogant king.

The Repatriation Ordeal In Corona Times

Image
The ordeal While we all are in forced lockdown without being able to travel and this can be frustrating, however believe me when I say traveling at these times is even more frustrating.  (photo for representation only) While I was happy to secure a flight home through "Vande Bharat Mission" repatriation flight after loosing my job in Dubai I was not really ready for the ordeal that was to come. The AirIndia Express flight to Chennai was at 1150hrs on 1st July. I have been one of the lucky few to get a ticket home in the 4th phase of Vande Bharat mission from Dubai to Chennai. In normal times a 2hrs or 3hrs pre arrival at airport would have been sufficient.  However these are different times and we came 5hrs before expecting too many formalities. The arrangement at Dubai terminal 2 was adequate. Social distancing well maintained with chairs spaced for seating, An initial rapid test conducted and a sticker on passport mentioning “FIT TO FLY” After this we were directed to check

A Year to forget

Year 2020 came in silently into our life like a serial killer, no one would ever suspected what it had to offer. If you survive this medically, mentally or monetarily you should be happy. 2020 has hit everyone like a tsunami, and only a few will make it alive to remember this.   It has been only 6 months of 2020 yet the causality are very high. Like any other year it started with a New year well celebrated across the world, however the happiness was destined to last only a few days when the first few cases of corona were recorded in the Far East. It did not take long for this to spread across. Even those who thought this would be yet another flu that will be eventually cured and will not affect them had to change their mind when it gradually spread in Italy, Europe and the US. All the initial theories that it will slow down when the temperature soars also fell flat when the fatalities and people affected kept growing in numbers.   To a generation who are used to the mad rush and runnin

Addicted to Apple

Am I being the Adam who ate the forbidden apple when I say I am addicted to Apple.  Being a staunch android user I have always believed apple was overhyped and kept on my love for android devices until I accidentally dropped my precious Huawei phone cracking its screen. Left with no choice had to borrow my wife’s iPhone 7+ which I though was a few days affair. However blame my laziness which prevented me from having my Huawei repaired and eventually led to me using the iPhone and gradually upgraded ito to a iPhone X and then a XS, in between these transitions I had to subconsciously move on to a Apple Watch and a MacBook Pro.  Things still seemed as if it was under control but not addicted and may not require any de-addiction or medication. However things got changed when I bought the iPad Pro 2020 recently for which I had to buy a magic keyboard and a Apple Pencil 2.  This is when I slowly realized how I was falling into the rabbit hole even without knowing it. So am I addicted to the
