Family

One family is the devotee of Sai Baba. Everything was going well till 1st April. On that day, I was called for discussion by my manager and HR. In the meeting, I was asked to leave the organization. They told me that the decision was taken due to the business reason. I was completely shocked and upset with the news. Since I was in H1B, I was to get into another job within 60 days or leave the country.

I didn’t reveal the news to my wife the same day as we had plans to go out shopping for our younger son's birthday celebration next day. Thinking that I might get a call from my previous employer or friends, I couldn’t hide it from my wife for a longer time. Hence, I had disclosed the details to my wife on 2nd April morning. She was also upset after hearing the news. Then I had decided to inform another close friend about the job loss. He had informed me that he would call me before lunch. After this, we started for Sai Baba temple. We had participated in noon aarti and was quite happy spending quality time in the temple. Then we went to a restaurant. In the parking lot, I got a call from my friend about the company that was ready to sponsor my H1B. We were quite delighted to hear the good news. That was purely the leela of Sai. On 3rd April, I had a discussion with the Director from the new company. She was pleased with my performance and ready to take me in the organisation.

After 1 week, I was told by the director about the interview schedule from a client organization. Thanks to Sai, I had cleared the interview. My employer immediately released the offer letter. Then I had to face the next hurdle. Client asked my employer to perform my background verification for the past 7 years as per the company policy. Since I was in the USA for the past 2.5 years, the verification for the remaining years needed to be done in India and they expected the process to complete in 15 days. Thanks to Sai’s blessing, the process was over in 7 days. My employer then released my offer letter and I had joined the company on 1st May. Within one month, I got into a new job and my stay in the US was made secure. Thank You Sai Appa for taking care of the family in the critical times.
