Under fair words, beware of fraud - Part 1 - Fair words

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.

Humanity Pays Off

It was just another day. After a very hectic workload in the company, I was very much tired. At that time there were mobiles but not with common people. The Internet had started its influence and was capturing human beings like the British had captured India in history. Being an engineer, now I think you waste half of your youth life just thinking of job search, job change over, and its frustration. Unknowingly I started my journey on the same path.  Having tired though, I went to café… no..no not café coffee day. I went to an internet cafe to search and apply for jobs. This had become my daily routine to go to a cyber café and search for a job.  One fortunate day, I got a call for an interview. It was in some area in Pimpri Chinchwad. I was needed to go by city bus. As usual, I lied to my boss and got leave for health reasons. I went for the interview and it was good. But they told me that they will inform me results in one or two days. I was hopeful. With lots of th...

Truth is stranger than fiction.

My boss, Anant, was of mid-thirty. He was a good guy and a jolly person. We were three in the office.  Myself Karan, working as a trainee engineer. And an assistant named Vaibhav. Whatever work was there, we used to distribute and do the work. But many times, we used to go to customer or vendor sites; there would be nobody in the office. So, Anant decided to have a receptionist for the office. He explained to us, “She will handle office documents and call management.” He told me to give an advertisement in a local newspaper in Pune. I and Vaibhav immediately completed the job. Boys will be boys. Both of us were very happy with the idea that one girl would be there with us for the next few days in the office.  Finally, the day of interviews came and one by one girls started entering for interviews. Anant had selected few girls for the interview. Vaibhav and I, both were so excited that we told Anant that there is no appointment with any customer as well as vendor. W...

"A thief is a thief, whether he steals a cucumber or a diamond .”

Theft is a big profession in the world. From small level servants to big level people, can work under this profession. They earn a lot of tax-free money. I met lots of thieves in a different stages of my life. To take any object without the knowledge of the owner of the object is a theft. Every thief has his own reasons to do a theft.   I  was a child when I met a thief who used to take away children. That day, I was with my Aunt. We went to the dentist for some dental work. After that, we went to a medical shop. As I remember, I was just standing outside of the shop. My aunt was in the shop. A woman having one small child in hand came to me. She said “Come, I will give you chocolate” and she held my hand and started pulling me with her. I was so dumb that I had started walking with her silently. My aunt came back from the shop and to her surprise, I was not there on road. When she saw both sides of the road, she noticed that I was going with a lady wi...
