Someone asked me, “What do you enjoy most working in this company?”
Without much hesitation, I answered, “That’s an easy one, the People.”
Anyways, If I don’t find joy in the people, then it’s going to be a serious problem. For I am in the people’s business after all.
And many times when I speak to people when they are leaving the company, it’s not uncommon to hear them saying that they are going to miss the people the most. When I think back all the joyous moments I have at work, it always revolve around the people I work with.
Be it when we deliver a project successfully. Or when my team wins an award. Or when everybody is having fun in a team activity. Or something as simple as we tell each other that we miss one another during a virtual lunch. There is so much joy & love in it, really.
But of course it’s not always just about the song and dance. There are shitty moments too & it’s esp these moments I find the best moments. Because it’s such an indescribable feeling of gratitude to learn people jump into the storm selflessly so we can get to see the calm sea again – together.
