I had a one month training at a factory in Indore in North India for my first job. While there, I met a young man who came to the factory for a few days. He was tall and handsome. He spoke fluently. He was being considered for a sales position and was getting to know the products. He was also meeting the Boss to negotiate the terms of employment. So one day I asked him ‘How is the Boss? Is he a nice guy?’ He said ‘Everybody is nice, so long as you don’t come in the way of their interests.’
A few days later he told me he was leaving and that he would
not be joining them. He looked happy. I think he had asked for a salary they
were not willing to offer. It was against their interests to pay him that much.
So he had come in the way of their interests.
