Forgotten lessons
#ForgottenLessons
I was in fifth standard. That is the time
Our teacher taught us the importance of speaking the truth in any circumstances,
punctuality,sincerity and hard work.
There afterwards to become a good student the above qualities are required.
So I always bear it in my mind.
Years passed,I am attending the first interview,I was ten minutes late for the interview.The reason is I actually got up late to start for the interview.
In interview, I was asked to explain for the delay.There I lied that my bus broke down en route.They also asked me whether I give importance to punctuality.I said, "very much"then why you are late again they asked.Now I do not have proper reply.I understand I made mistake,I wouldn't have lied for my delay.They easily understood that I am talking lie.They said we don't want to select you for the reasons I was late, and I spoke lie.
I understood the importance about punctuality and speaking the truth.
I should not have forgotten the lesson my teacher taught in fifth standard.
Since I failed to speak the truth,I lost my job.Now. Learnt the lesson.
