Invitation for you my love

“Dear Candy,
This morning, I received a call from a landline number all the way from Dharamsala (HP). I usually hesitate to attend the call on my Airtel HP number (which I retained after my transfer to Chandigarh) knowing the fact that I am cursing roaming since last five months. You know what my love !!! That call catered an invitation for you by those who turned out to be your fan for a moment, the organizers I mean. I actually overwhelmed for a while when I learnt about the Baby Show Competition which is being under the aegis of Kangra Valley Summer Festival and the organizers were continuously trying to get in touch with me. Finally they got their man but not their participant.

Candy, what a moment that was, when me, Poonam and you attired in their best made it to that Baby Show venue. I still preserve those pics and video (though that was the toughest job assigned by your mom for me to have maximum pics and lengthy videos from handycam as I can). I won’t like to recount those moments just for the sake of filling that ongoing blog. All I can say that was one of the glorious moment of my lifetime witnessing own daughter in this form of a beauty pageant.

You rocked the stage that times my love which resulted yet another invitation for this edition. I was just a mute spectator while attending call to listen all the details of upcoming Baby Show and wishing all new wannabe participants that don’t leave your parents in lurch.

But dear you Stay connected”

Yet another world beyond Airtel.

Dear Candy,
"How are you ‘up there.’ I know it had been an over a month, ever since I briefed you. My apologies love. You too, must be missing your dad. Right ?? The delay was for a reason which I wanted to share with you in my lasts blogs but my professional commitment level seems to be much much higher than the personal one. Hardly managed to get time for blogging.
Anyway…. I am a happy and satisfied today which I was never before. Ask why ?? Love, against the all odds, opposition and giving thumbs down to mounting recession, I have resigned from my 2.5 old family. Yes Airtel. And believe me, I am feeling damn satisfied and from now I am looking way ahead for a new inning. After your demise, your mother never feel like coming to HP, neither I forced her. And eventually lend my transferr to Chandigarh with a different profile, which was not of my liking. But interestingly that unwanted liking continued for a quarter (three months). Today, this evening while drafting my adieu mail, I was actually rewinding my good and bad days of Airtel where you share our major portion. Ohh Love, A for Aarushi and A for Airtel, both are not with me. Sad part.

Your dad in all form of life, believed in driving things rather dragging. And this was the prime reason for leaving Airtel. I was really not enjoying, (though performance was satisfactory) the kind of sales profile, which I never thought of doing in my lifetime. Two reasons – my career and my ethics didn’t allow me to continue with Airtel. I had never been so enthusiastic in sales and always fear of being messing up my career and posing a 'threat' for my own good team. Ethics. Yes, your dad always tried to push ethics even in corporate world. Ethically, it would be shame on me, If I sitting on a sales profile, again dragging things (instead of driving), thus not giving a chance to someone who actually more deserving than me. Earning hefty amount of salary in this manner which Sudeep Rawat never believes. Moreover, Sales was not meant for me in a long term. At the end of the days, felt so satisfied to see smile on Sumit’s face, whom I gave handover some days ago.
Love, I am proud to lend a little portion of my life to India’s largest mobile company, also to the major portion of their telecom market i.e. HPHP Circle. I have seen every colours of Corporate culture in Airtel, which by and large badly hit me. One major merger of HP, three transfers and one personal loss of you was more than enough to shake me. But love your dad have enough strength to perceive yet another world beyond Airtel.
To share with you little boldly..I am on the verge of floating my own venture. Yes, another world beyond Airtel awaits me.
Stay connected"
Your loving Dad
Sudeep Rawat
