Job play is a very crucial role in everyone’s life in order to improve their lifestyle and to provide a service. Here I would like to talk about a particular job that one of my grandfather’s parents did. So it was a job of a professor. My grandfather is now 70 years old and he lives with us. He is a very good, polite and humble person by nature. He does a job of a professor in the science college. Earlier he was working in the Pune. But recently, 10 years back he got a transfer and now shifted to Rappur Chhattisgarh. He just did his job like about 25 to 26 odd years and 5 months back he got retirement from his job and now he is receiving his pension. Moreover, I can also say that how long he did his job. Although it was a longer time but he extremely narrated his story very beautifully that he was a child. He did a lot of struggle and hard work and as there was financial issues in the family. So he used to sell newspaper in the city area and also like he do a ragging. He opened a small grocery shop from where he was earning money and with the help of that he just completed his study. Later on he worked hard with dedication and efforts and clear his competitive exam and selected as a professor in one of the science college in Rappur. So his journey was really unforgettable and although he worked extremely hard throughout his life. But now I believe that this job is really very fascinating and luxurious as this does not require a lot of physical effort and hard work. And I believe that he had done something good.
