Last week, the managers were sending congratulatory notes to folks who got promoted. I was happy for everyone who got promoted and even more happy that I did not get through the nomination.
All of a sudden, my mom asked me the question. I don't know how my mom does it but sometimes it feels that she has a premonition in matters concerning me. It happens every time I do something wrong like spilling something, not doing some work. She finds it right away.
Anyways back to the conversation.
Amma: R, what happened to your promotion? Any news about it
Me (grinning): I think I did not make it this year
Amma: why? did they tell you the reason.
Me: No idea and Iam glad about it
Amma: how can someone be happy in not getting promoted. I will be proud of you if you went on to become an Associate Director
Me: Amma, tell me some thing. Would you want your daughter to have a promotion and then asked to quit or have a job on hand.
Amma: you and your silly thoughts!!!!
I went on to celebrate the occasion of not getting promoted by munching on my favorite chocolate. Finally, something good has happened in this New Year!!!!
