Techie Loses Job
Kolkata: Massive earthquake of magnitude 8.7 struck Indonesia 11the April afternoon. Tremors were felt in many parts of India also. No reports have been confirmed about any losses of life or property. But a techie has lost his job, thanks to the tremors.Incident occurred today afternoon at sector 5 in Kolkata. As the tremors were felt, employees of ‘Bye Bye Consultancy Services’ were evacuated as a safety measure. After 20 minutes waiting in open areas, employees were asked to move to their workstations. As per the new disaster management policy of the company, employee count was done to ensure that everybody is safe. But Rahul Bhattacharjee was found missing.
“We have installed new security systems in company recently wherein we can get details of people who entered office on that day. After tremors, when associates started moving towards their places, we kept counting associates up to half an hour as some people go for smoke during such times. But even after an hour, Rahul had not moved in the office. Sensing the danger, search operation was initiated”, Said Debasis Chkarborthy, chief security officer.
Intense search operation was made in office areas, cafeteria, sports room and even the new building construction area. But there were no signs of Rahul. Only after 5PM when Rahul came back to office, security people took a sigh of relief. But that followed questioning Rahul about his whereabouts.
“Initially Rahul denied that he was not present for such a long time. Then the matter was raised to HR team. After a long round of discussion, it was revealed that Rahul had gone to watch movie even before the tremors were felt. This is not acceptable as per company policy. He is fired with immediate effect”, Said Paromita Chattopadhyay, HR lead of the company.
“I am not having any work for past few months like many of my friends. Sports room is always filled with so many people, so much that in order to get one game of TT, you have to wait for two hours. I don’t have any female friends in office also, otherwise like many of my friends I could have been sitting in canteen. Today only one IPL match is there, that too starts at 8PM.So instead of wasting my time here and there, I went to watch the movie. Still the company is not accepting all these reasons and are not changing their decision” Said frustrated Rahul.
Rahul’s firing has become a debate topic in the companies. Some say it is due to the poor people management policies of software companies that they hire too many people without work. Others believe that it is Rahul’s fault to be caught, when there are so many people like him without work. Some say it is his bad luck. Had the earthquake not come, he would still have the job in hand.
Whatever may be the reason, the poor guy has lost his job. And like many people in Indonesia will remember this day, Rahul will also; although with different reasons. Our sincere advice to all those people who do not have work, Please do not go to watch movies during free time…!!!!
