Packaged Milk in Germany

I currently stay in Germany due to an assignment. I will stay here for around 3 years. My family is settled with me and we are getting used to the German style and cost of living...

Well, German Engineering is known for quality and perfection. Made in Germany is an envious label on any product.. But, is this now still the case.. I cannot generalize anything, but would like to mention an observation on this note..

With my two young kids, my family consumes a lot of milk. We buy the packaged fresh milk, this is the nearest product available to fresh milk. Of course, there is no milkman who can deliver fresh milk out of his steel container..

Now, for the sake of statistics, my observation below has the occurrence of once out of ten packages. This is 10% probability of occurrence..

My wife sometimes finds hair of the cow in the milk. It is anybody's guess that the hair is from the milking process. I am not sure, but I certainly assume that milking of Cow in Germany is mechanised and not manual as in India. So, don't we get better quality and perfection.. Any sane thinking should affirm this assumption.. Maybe it is also true if you consider all parameters of quality, but strangely in India, I have never heard my wife telling me that she found hair of the cow in the milk packet !!

So, a simple quote from this incident is that "over attention on perfection does not necessarily lead to better quality - it could be counter-active sometimes.."

Why another blog ?

Is it not a trend, a fashion, a craze, an addiction, a waste to create another blog ?

There are loads and loads of blogs on the internet highway, so why am I creating another one...

Does anyone read them at all ? Am I interested in a hit rate, am I interested in adsense, am I interested to be found in Google seaches ?

Well, I would leave these questions unanswered, just go ahead and read my blog, if it interests you...

In this blog, I would like to pen my thoughts on the two most important attributes of success for me: Perfection and Quality.

Well, Perfection and Quality does not spell Success, but are, for me, essential ingredients in any action, work, product.

So, let me dwelve regularly into my thoughts on the quotients for Success.. Comment if you like to share your thoughts...
