Chapter 74: chapter 74

Reshma - Oh, terrible!Aman - The situation is really very terrible. I don’t know when this system is going to change for the better. Reshma - Hmm…Aman - Sometimes, I feel that the system in government institutions can never be changed. Privatization is the best when it comes to the productive work done in the school. Reshma - Can you explain? I thought, “This girl seems to be really great. She is interested in listening to the scholarly discussions.”Aman - Yeah, why not. See in government institutions, the head or principal is a government employee. Right? Reshma - Obviously, he will be a government employee! Haha! What’s the point in it?Aman - Haha! Hey, I haven’t told my point yet! I am going to say my point now.Reshma - Okay, hehe!Aman - My point is that the head of any government institution is paid a fixed salary. If the institution grows or it fails, the head will go on getting the same amount of fixed salary every month. Right? Reshma - Right. Aman - There is neither motivation for the head to work harder nor fear of the failure of the institution. Then why would he work? On the contrary, in the private institutions, if the institution grows then there is a big hike in the salary of the head but if the institution performance lowers down then he gets fired. In this scenario, the positive and the negative motivation is from both ends, so obviously, there is every reason for him to work harder for the betterment of the institution.Reshma - Wow! What a great reason! I have never thought like that! You are really a great scholar!Aman - Hehe! No, no. Nothing like that. I may be wrong. Whatever I told you is my opinion. I am not claiming it to be true. Hehe. Reshma - But it is a very logical statement.Aman - Hmm… yeah. But if I tell you honestly then I would say that I don’t like my job. It’s kind of a very foolish job. Whatever I do here, like maintaining cash books, ledger books and other documentary works is just a waste of time. In actuality, all these things are of no use. Hundred percent worthless things! Nobody’s life is going to be changed! I feel like I am being paid heavily for the most stupid work! Sometimes I feel like I should leave this job.Reshma - Don’t leave this job. I know that whatever you are saying is true. But if you leave this job then what will you do? You have spent twenty five years of life just to get this job. And if you leave it now, then everything will be finished. You can leave this job easily but you can’t get back this job easily. More probably, you will never get back your job ever!Aman - I know that. I can understand. That’s the reason I am not leaving this job. That’s the reason why I am still in this boring job with only one pretext within my mind. At least, here I get free time in the evening to do the things I want. Reshma - Yes! Brilliant! That’s the brilliant strategy. Do your job in the morning and in the evening do what you like. Aman - Yeah… I guess…Reshma - Still, you guess? You are not sure yet. Aman - How can I be so sure? Because everything is fake in our job. All paper work of my school is fake. I don’t know about other schools but in my school uff! It's a complete waste of time.Reshma - Hey, don’t say that. If something is not going good in your school, then what are you doing there? Do something. Make the system of your school right. Put your extra efforts into it. This kind of problem is everywhere, in all the institutions, be it private or government.Aman - Yeah. I thought, “I know you can never understand my situation because you haven’t worked as a government teacher yet. Anyhow, if I go on debating with her then she may get hurt. It’s not the time for picking up a debate. Well, the new government is working hard to improve the system and I hope soon everything will be alright in every school. Many schools have already improved a lot."Aman - I guess, we have talked enough about government schools and teachers. Let’s change the topic now. Reshma - Okay. Let’s change. Aman - Truth be told, one thing I liked in you very much. Reshma - What? Aman - That you are interested in interesting topics. You are not the type of girl who loves to talk on frivolous matters or loves to gossip. You also have the ability to listen to good things.   Reshma - Oww! Thanks a lot for your praise. Well, you also seem to be a very mature guy. I smiled. I heard beeps while I was talking. I thought, “Who is calling me now? Who could it be? Is she Hemlatta?” I took my phone off my ears and looked at its screen and it was the phone of Hemlatta! “Oh gosh! It’s very difficult to handle two girls at a time.”Cunningly, I said to Reshma, “Hey! One of my relatives is calling me. I have to pick up his call.”Reshma - Oh, it’s okay. You can talk to him. Aman - Please don’t feel bad. I will call you back soon. Reshma - Okay, okay. Now, you can talk to him. Aman - Alright. I disconnected the call and picked up the call of Hemlatta, “Hello dear, how are you?”Hemlatta - Me good. But why is your phone always coming busy? Is your mom talking to any relative today? Aman - Haha! No, no! Today, my mom was not talking to any relative. Today, I was talking to my relative. Hemlatta - Oh, nice excuse. Aman - Hey, it’s not excuse. It’s reality. Actually, my mama ji’s son fell sick that’s why we all are busy. I am still in his house. Hemlatta - Oh, what happened to him? Aman - He just had some temperature. We thought it was just a simple fever. But the fever didn’t leave him for five days. Then we all became concerned for his health. We went to the hospital and the doctors there admitted him saying that his cells are down. Hemlatta - Oh, is he out of danger? (It will be so nice of you, if you leave at least a single word comment 🌺❇️🌹🌺❇️)
