It's my first day in independent official capacity. Jasmine has packed her bags and left me in the lurch. Boo hoo! No tears, I tell myself - you're the new Head - Member Support. Huge responsibilities, great expectations.

So here I am trying to understand how things work. As a member I thought I knew MouthShut.com just as much as I knew myself. As a team member, it's different. It's funny how the guys on MouthShut who I knew before, interacted with earlier are going to look at me. The equations have changed.

But I'll get to the finishing line, I'm sure. I hope.

More importantly -

I'm there to support you, always.

Write to me at support@mouthshut.com" target="_blank"> support@mouthshut.com or simply send M2Ms. I shall reply.

Cheers! Have a great day!

Aprajita Natasha Singh (@ caretaker)

Hi everyone:

A goodbye note from my end and a platform to introduce the new Head – Member Support@ MouthShut.com.

As I brace myself to end what has been a long professional relationship, it gives me great pleasure in introducing the new Head- Member Support. Please give a warm welcome to Aparajita Natasha Singh. While this name may not ring a bell …. her MouthShut.com ID would.

caretaker

caretaker or Aparajita is an old member on MouthShut.com and some of you may have an acquaintance with her. She is now part of the official team here since last week.

caretaker has a formidable task at hand but I am sure she will live up to her name – caretaker – and contribute to the MouthShut.com community and its well-being.

Aparajita can be contacted on support@mouthshut.com

Have a great life. Take good care of yourself.


Regards,
Jasmine Ahuja

Dear all:

The countdown has begun. From this Saturday, I shall no longer be Head – Member Support MouthShut.com. This is tough. I had joined MouthShut.com as a trainee right at its inception, almost ten years ago. A decade later, I shall now be putting away the stripes . It has been a great journey, interacting with you and many before you.

Never in my dreams had I thought that the journey would be so long and fulfilling. But as they say all good things come to an end. And some other good things come to the fore. I shall be moving to Birmingham after my marriage next month. Wish I could invite all of you. Some of you would be there – Ishallah as Faisal says.

Towards the weekend you shall be introduced to the new Head – Member Support. Till then have a great week.


Regards,
Jasmine Ahuja

Hi Everyone:

Did you take a look at the latest 'Read Review' page? I personally think it’s a double C - Cool and Compact. After several grueling brainstorming sessions and some great work by the designers and the tech team, we proudly present the new look 'Read Review' page. Do leave your comments in the space below to let us know what you feel of the finished product.

I look forward to your comments. MouthShut.com thrives on suggestions made by its members.

Also, would like to share with you that this could be amongst my last few diaries in official capacity.

Spent the evening listening, talking, chatting and laughing with Shahrukh Khan at his study- in his "Mannat" at Bandra, Mumbai.

He talked about a lot of things. I asked him stuff like 'if his kids love his movies.' He was like they all enjoyed "Chak De."

Shahrukh - SRK- is an amazing person. I like his go-getter attitude, his simple ways and his sense of humor. Oh BTW, he's more witty than you can imagine:-)

Sorry, my iPhone does not have flash, hence the photos were not that great...anyway.

Love,

I am a big fan of innovative marketing but some times marketeers play with raw human emotions to reach out to you.

For instance, insurance companies. I've noticed a trend where many reputed insurance companies, after obtaining your child's name from the school, call parents' under the guise of "rewarding your child with a certificate for outstanding performance at school..."
Most parents are overjoyed when they hear something like this. These smart insurance agents then visit you at home and try to pitch a "child-friendly" policy. Oh heavens, stop playing with my child's emotions.

This is unacceptable to me. I avoid cell-phones as much as possible, but when this lady mentioned that she wanted to talk about my son Kashif's elocution performance, I continued the conversation and did not hang up on her. She wants to meet me. Is she gonna sell me some product? She claimed she was from my child's school. I grilled her and then she revealed she was from Aviva Life.

What do ya'll think?

However, we did try our best to do justice to each and every review. It was worth the wait considering the number of reviews we received for this contest. Here are the winners:
