Magnolia

Have you seen the movie "Magnolia" starring Tom Cruise. Its a very true depiction of our life in all its randomness.

If an adult had done this to any collegue in his/her office then what? Would then the govt ban mobile devices in all offices also? Banning is not a solution. Instead what should be explored are the larger implications of effects of giving mobile devices to people who are not mature enough to use them.

There is no thing as a perfect interview but i have high hopes.
