The world around us

Now that we’re back from our trip, we need to get going on all the sorting, packing and moving phase. I have to finish all my pending work this week itself and then get started on it. What we’re really looking forward to is some rest and relaxation once we’re settled, since it’s just been incredibly hectic since january this year. It would be great to take on one of these leisure time promotions for about a week and completely recover from the amount of work we’ve been doing this year.

While I worked all through my trip of the past two weeks, I did get to work in more luxurious surroundings than I usually do, which was a nice change. I thought, it would take me some time to get used to working there, in the sense that there would be so many distractions, but it all worked out quite well in the end.

As fast as retailers are making expansion plans, real estate developers are not being able to keep up with thir delivery schedules, leading to retailer’s plans and projections in disarray. Retail companies such as Pantaloon, Pyramid, Reliance, Hypercity and Globus are all facing this problem, which is leading to friction between retailers and real estate developers. It is estimated that these delays will cost retailers a lot of money, who have already tied up for merchandise and vendors in advance.
