I think I am a fairly straight jacketed person. Two experiences that make my ears go red but had to be polite.....
A distant cousin of mine was given an opportunity to do a summer job in a sister concern. He completed without even calling me up (not expecting thanks but just a statement that summer job is over). Silence for a year and then all of a sudden call last week to say that he would seek my help in getting an assignment in X industry and in Y place.......
Another call from a person I have not met/spoken to for the last 15 years. Unknown number and the first question is if I have recognised the voice? Obviously not! Help for getting a job to a brilliant son of her's with 9 years workex and his current organisation is hell bent on retaining him!!!! Why does he need a change? Why he needs my help when he is brilliant?
Such is the social network in India.
