That
night I was unable to sleep. The following day was going to be one of
the most important days in my life. It was my dream to work for a
multi-national company. I had got a call for interview from the
number one player in the industry.
The job profile involved travelling abroad. I was happy that my would be job was going to satisfy the itch in me to travel all the wonderful places on the earth. I had always hankered to visit the leaning tower of Pisa, the Eiffel tower, the pyramids of Egypt and many more wonders of the world. I kept mentally visiting those places again and again.
I
don't know when I skidded into deep slumber. By the time I woke up it
was already 9 am. Oh Gosh! I said to myself. My interview was
scheduled at 10 am and at 9 am I was still in my bed. I could see my
dreams being shattered into pieces. Some how I gathered my composure
and rushed to the bathroom. With the little time that I had to get ready I
decided to give a go by to all personal grooming including shaving. I stood into the shower and drenched myself in the splashes of water. I
wiped myself and shifted into clean pressed clothes. The stubble was
visible when I looked into the mirror. But I had no time to shave. I
got out of my house and drove as fast as I could.
This is how I looked |
I
entered the room where the revered panel was sitting. I entered the
room running my fingers through my face. Hand to face gestures imply lack of confidence, I remembered reading in the book of body language. The panel asked me the
questions whose answers I knew. However given that all my attention was
fixed on my stubble I was unable to articulate my answers. My stubble
was bothering me too much. Needless to mention I lost the position
owing to my unkept beard. I swore that day I would not step out of my
house ever without being shaved.
