Job plays a crucial role in everyone’s life in order to earn and improve their lifestyle. Here I would like to talk about one of the jobs that one of my grandparents did. So it is a job of a professor. My grandfather did. My grandfather is a Christian Chanmurthy and he is a 675 years old. He is a very humble and polite person and also very optimistic in nature. So I came to know about his job when I was a small. I just listened to his story very beautifully with him. He just told me that he worked extremely hard in order to get admission in the school. He used to work with his father in the grocery shop and earn money with the help of which he just completed his schooling. After that he just worked extremely hard for completing the competitive exam later on. He got selected as a professor. He worked in the Pune for about 10-15 years and then later he got transferred in the Rappur. He worked around 20-25 years and recently 5 months back he got retired and now is receiving a pension. What’s more, he employs that he is a very knowledgeable and very intelligent person. He knows about every in and out of every domain and fields. Everybody also, like my neighbour would also come to take advice from him. I believe that this job is very interesting and luxurious as it does not require a lot of physical work. Only the thing requires proper knowledge about teaching, education and a person should always be strict. These are the qualities which he already had so that the student can also learn effectively with their professor.
