An apology to a friend

I am writing this blog since I wanted to wholeheartedly apologise to my Friend Mr AC. the reason being that I had to use his name ( blame ) to get myself relieved from this organisation. The story goes like this ...



In Sept 2009 end soon after my marriage , I was given two options

a) either continue my then profile of Business Analyst and move to Hyderbad which was my Zonal Head office for south ( I was not in a position to move out of chennai citing my parents health)

b) move under networks reporting to my own best friend AC.

I was left with no other option but with option no 2 , I decided to move to networks reporting under AC

Now AC was very close to me and I have shared each and every thing with him but though I had taken a decision , I was little hurt to report under AC who was of the same cadre as of mine. Ideally , being flexible at work , that should have not caused much problems to me but I chose to motivate myself to look out for new job citing the reason of being made to report under AC.

Apart from the fact that our styles of working was not matching , we did not have any big difference of opinion as such. Meanwhile in Feb end , I had two big suprises .. yes

a) I got an offer from a small but aggressive company.

b) My current management was ready to allow me work from Chennai in the same old BA role.

Now both these suprise events happened at same time . I finally made up my mind to move out . Now the reasons which i could use to move out were

i) I was not allowed to work from Chennai in my previous role of Business Analyst ( Now there was no meaning in citing this reason as my management was finally ready to allow me to work from Chennai)

ii) I was made to report under AC of same cadre

I was left with none but the second option of blaming my reporting under AC as a reason to move out of this company.

I sent my resignation letter on 3rd and the management tried to convince me a lot but I preferred to stick on to my stand and use my reporting to AC as main reason for my quiting.

I finally managed to crack it and my management accepted my resignation but this was done at the cost of blaming my reporting under AC.

While i wirte this blog , i feel very bad for having done that since AC was very close friend who used to motivate me at my bad time and in fact he was very uncomfortable in me reporitng under him.

I would like to apologise to my friend AC for having used his name wrongly to get myself relieved from my post .. God Bless him
