9/11 Effect - Remembrance

Everyone knows about the 9/11 incident and there are so many victims. I'm also one of them...! I don’t have a direct impact rather It was effected my career indirectly. It's just 15 days before I joined in a new company IIL, New Delhi, with a cool offer to fly to UK for a training program on Smiles CRM Product. I'm done with every thing including the visiting visa to UK. My self and my friend were so much excited to fly away in few days.(3 people were selected as a part of the program). The company had to fix a date to book the tickets, and we were asked to finish the shopping as well. So, with out any other thought, (as we don’t have much time) I finished the shopping by spending around 10K rupees of pocket money. It includes shoes, suits, and winter jackets, etc. etc...!

The other day we went to the office normally and checking our status, preparing required documents...bla...bla...bla.. Suddenly one of my colleagues turned our side and told the news about the attack on twin towers and it was totally blasted. He showed the photos & videos as well. It's really horrible news. As an instant effect so many countries stopped their air-services. I was thinking that, its ok I did not happen to UK, so I can fly....! But what happened is different. Due to that event the company in UK also put the program in pending, and giving no information on what to do. Within few days, I understood that the training program was canceled. I sticked the Delhi office itself. So, all doors were closed.......ooooooooooops!!!

After 1-2 months of handling a new project, I was requested to visit IIL-Hyde office where the actual development of the project took place. Since then I'm in Hyde till today, though I switched to different companies in my career path.
