Bangalore: 'I was working for my parents until they decided to move'; 'I am moving because my girlfriend left the city'; 'I am staying very far from the workplace' are few of the silly reasons that make your manager laugh at your silliness rather than being concerned. However, when it comes to India the reasons seem to differ a bit. Owing to the difference in the culture and lifestyle, employees here rely more on the reasons dealing with home or family matters. To find the top silly reasons which are used most often by employees in India, we got in touch with managers of various companies. When asked, managers came up with several reasons which they have found silly and inappropriate. Here is the list of the top five reasons based on the extent of their silliness: 1.Getting married:
Female employees leaving their job so as to adjust to new set up or shift to their husbands' place might convince a manager. But male employees resigning just because they are getting married can not. It is the silliest of all the resaons. Speaking from her experiences, Fathima Kauser, Business Development Manager, Impressions Ark said, "As a manager, out of all the reasons I have come across, men leaving because of marriage is the most silly and fake."
