That Guy!

So.. that Guy whom I was thanking...!!! hmm... He is Ripan Gain.. No not any celebrity... very simple, shy, ordinary Bangladeshi boy..boy!! no!!.. a young guy...whom I have assigned a new job on 10th June, Thursday... He was an ordinary labourer... but was intelligent and sincere than others... He came one day to me for some salary related issue and then I found this guy has got some sort of u can say self esteem.. he was hesitating to ask for money... I could see an untold pain on his face... as if he was not liking what he was doing... as if he could do something better.. as if he deserved better...On further discussion I found he is quite educated... and was studying management in college...A computer literate...So, decided to move him to some other position.. but where... ! Anyways got a new position required to be filled...took reviews also from other foremen/site in charges... All said he was a good learner... I needed to channelize that energy.. I needed to give him something that would make him happy.. and then I was confident he would deliver more than expected... So, I put him into the new role after taking approval from management...

And... Let me tell you... when I explained him about the new role... He was about to cry... No exaggeration... I could see it clearly... After explaining it all he came forward and shook my hand and said. (in Bengali -- I am translating here)... "Sir, How can I thank you for this promotion...U have given me this opportunity I will give my best..."...

Let me tell you.. there was no salary hike in this for him.. except I told him I would try to pay him for his phone bills... But how happy he was... It left me thinking again.. What is it people actually need...

let me share a message that I have received from him today surprisingly just when I started writing my first blog... it wrote exactly this.. "Congratulations to you. I want such as job that you told me. I read B.Com. 2 years after passed S.S.C and H.S.C.. My subject was Management. I have completed Diploma in Computer Science and ICT. I am wishing that you success your every aims. Good afternoon. Bye..(Ripan Gain)"...

Just imagine how many people like him would be under treated... I dont know exactly how will he perform... I will update you on that as well.. But I feel its our(the so called educated and having some authority) responsibility to also look at people at times...to find out if any body is under treated (may be unknowingly also)... do they need something.. If we always pile our own wants( not NEEDs) to overlook their NEEDs... then how is it justified...Before we argue on what we deserve let us stop once and ask this question also what do they deserve...

How can I ignore them who have made it possible to meet our WANTS by sacrificing their NEEDs...

And trust me.. its very easy to make them happy... may be because they don't know what they worth...Lets help these silent followers to at least give them what they deserve...

So.. lets.. think a bit...Lets be Human to Human... Not Machine to Human and Not Human to Machine..
