It is a small world!

Weird thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago. We were returning from regular weekendly Whitefield trip when we sat down for lunch in the Outpost. Across our table was Bhargav, quietly eating his lunch. I felt very ashamed, but could not hide. Soon he caught my eyes, waved at me, and came over to talk. It could have been quite embarrassing, since I had rejected him in a weekend interview months ago. To my relief he landed a very well paying job elsewhere, and was happy with the onsite opportunity the new job came with. He still remembered me from the interview because of the simple questions in Java that he could not answer and had to read up later on. He knew the answers now, but I insisted that he should enjoy his lunch rather than discussing java.
My son took instant liking for him, partly because he gave a false name, Shah Rukh Khan. So when Bhargav took my business card and disappeared, Soumik was quite shattered :-(
The whole episode was queer. Bhargav even inquired about outcome of his interview with me. I had to tell him that he would not have been a fit there. Hopefully he understood. First time in my life such a thing happened where an interviewee came over to talk to the interviewer after not being selected!
