I was giving my statement at the police station. The police constable started typing in the local language. I was very nervous at that time. As soon as I started speaking, my inner mind was already reached in past. It was my first day in the company. It was a marketing company and was supplying goods from regional stores to distributors and other clients. We had a warehouse and an office attached. We hardly were ten people in the office. Rao K. V., a very young, dynamic, and very friendly in nature, was manager of the regional office. I entered the office and was welcomed by him with a very gentle smile on his face. He was very polite and talkative in nature. He inquired about my family and wished me the best of luck. I was in heaven because getting a friendly boss normally happens only in dreams. I was feeling so lucky because you win half of the war during joining a new company if you get a good boss. He had kept the office atmosphere very pleasant. In just a few days, I got very much comfortable with my all colleagues. He used to take care of and guide us so well that we even used to take personal problems to him.
I remember, when I was required to go to Nagpur, India by flight for some work, he guided me each step like one explains to a kid with every minute details. My tour was successful. I used to travel to different places with him for client visits. He used to fight for us for our expenses and facilities with management. What else an employee requires? Very soon, we started following and believing in him. He had started a new initiative that every month, we used to go for a movie and dinner in a good restaurant with all our company colleagues.
Now, you can understand that employees like me were so impressed by him then, how much his boss and superiors would have been impressed. No doubt, he was taking care of all bosses and superiors equally. They were not only satisfied but used to believe blindly in him.
good work :)
