memories from the past. Posted by Engr. {(male) KhalidMahmood} on June 22 of 2025:

In the year 2000/2001 when I was in Karach and was hired by CresSoft a software company in Karachi (a VP of the same company who hired me advised me to leave from the company and go back in August 2001). During this time, I bought a Siemens GSM mobile phone (which not a android phone and was not a durable product), so whenever I got a chance I used to step thorough various menus and configurations to familiarize myself with the new product which required extended duration looking on the phone display with head down towards the phone. This was unusual for those who were no not aware of the mobile phone technology at that time in Pakistan. Once I was doing the same during a visit to one of my relatives in Karachi, i.e. looking on the phone screen (or staring on the phone screen as some people might say), by their facial expression/behaviour I could gague that this was not normal from their point of view. Now adays in Ottawa it is a very common scene to see people reading phone screen or watching videos on the phone with head down for extended period of time in a bus or at a  restaurant or other places. But 25 years ago this was unusual in Karachi and not acceptable by people, I have a feeling they would come up with negative interpretations about it. People should be honest and open minded and instead of making wrong judgement on people should try to learn from others. No egotism, No elitism.

About behaviours, Good and bad ??

-
During my residency in Ottawa many years ago,  someone asked me "are you behaving". I asked him in my response "if you explain to me what you mean by behaving, I will tell you, wether I was behaving or not". He had no response to it and I walked away from the situation. I wonder if there is any absolute definition of good/bad behaviour. In my opinion adult and children behaviour in a specific environment would differ drastically i.e. expectations from adults and children behaviour would be different under same environments. A person's behaviour should be adjustable according to the environments and culture. What is considered good behaviour or acceptable behaviour in one culture or region may be interpreted just opposite in another region of the world or culture or situation. Bahaviour in a school setting, or at home, during shipping, in a church, in a mosque, in a club, in a stadium are all require different behaviour from adults and children. There is no good ...
