... said Tony when we spoke recently... Tony is a great guy. An ideal guy. Very dedicated (in his personal and professional life)... very genuine... the guy who is loved by everyone for the person he is... hard working... joyful... Great sense of humor... Great understanding of life... (and am sure a good performer at work)
But... Tony lost his job. Reason? The company was in the midst of restructuring and his role was identified as redundant... his colleagues loved him... his boss loved him... but...he lost his job..
Who is to be blamed? Tony? His company? His boss? His leadership? Probably none of these.... sometimes there is no one to be blamed for a decision that an organization takes which affects an individual but what it does do is makes you think about it... to draw an analogy, we often hear about passing of a person who has never smoked or consumed alcohol..who was a fitness enthusiast.. did everything right in his/her life but suddenly passed due to unexplained reasons... no one is to be blamed ... such instances only remind us that no matter how good u are at what you do or who you are... life is too uncertain.. be it a job.. matters of health or life itself... take nothing for granted...
I have no friend named Tony... but this is a real incident and I used a fictitious name to narrate the true story...
