Surprise from DGPC
Surprised!!!! Do I look surprised? |
Do I really deserve that?
Am I that capable to handle?
What has the Panel discovered from me that others don't?
Will I justify their trust?
Is this the right choice for my career?
Many random thoughts came rushing my veins that ultimately led to a saturation point where I feel numb for a second.
The surprised day was Today (08.03.2019) when I got a call from Mr. Karma Dendup congratulating me for my selection as Dy. Executive Engineer in C & P Division.
"Wait, What? Really? Where? Are you sure?" I was busy with my Lunch, served for my Day-8 at Anim Dratshang when this incidence happen. Calmly, I've done my lunch and checked my cell phone to confirm myself. Many congratulatory messages popped up (group chats in messenger), I was like "Where is the Result" only then I realized that it was informed by some DGPC staff of UGPH.

A vacancy for various posts was floated sometime back in September-2018 for O & M of Mangdechhu Project. Shortlisting was done and selection Interview was held on December 10-11, 2018 and February 11-12, 2019 (for those who failed to meet the criteria for the first attempt). As soon as the vacancy was announced, I consulted with Baby Thayeden's Godfather, who is also a devoted monk and a learned Astrologer as to see any possibility of positive signs. Ata (as we call them) without any hesitation said that the 1st option (Civil Division) has no possibility. However, the 2nd option (C & P Division) got little hope provided I recite 1000 times Bar-Choe Lam-Soel and 1000 times Sam-Pa Lhen-Dup. I took his note seriously and started to recite Bar-Choe Lam-Soel (Due-Pa, summarized one) 1000 times. I found it impossible to recite Sam-Pa Lhen-Dup myself, so I send some amount to his Dratshang to recite for me. There is an old saying "God helps those who help themselves". I truly believe that, for I've taken some groundwork consulting Ata and taking his advice seriously.
"Was it because of that?" It may be.
"Is it that I am capable" Definitely not.
Let me not forget to mention that it could be due to the combination of the encouragement my family members and my friends have rendered, the prayer and wishes of my Mom, the silent whispers of wisdom from the God Almighty and the motivation from my working colleagues. I am nobody and I am nothing without them. I wholeheartedly thank all my well-wishers.
Congratulations to all the selected ones. I am happy that three SOs out of four slots were selected from HRT Complex and it even made it so thrilling that all three of them are my followers (sadly they hardly go through my blog). I individually congratulated them by ringing and giving the good news (Dorji, Budhi & Pema).
Most importantly I feel bad for those who are not selected. As said, Everything happens for a reason. Who knows, something bigger is waiting for them. When one door closes, 1000 opens. It may be a blessing in disguise. It is not an end of the world. Many opportunities are waiting for you all. It is just a matter of time. Time will take its own course. Wait for it and grab it.
