“Who is Shivani?”
“Shivani used to work for me before you.”
“Oh, was she the one that ran away because you scared her?”
Baskar laughed and nodded in acceptance.
“How did you manage to bring her back? I know she was very mad at you.”
“I couldn’t apologize, but I did tell her that now I appreciate her work, it’s quality, etc. I also raised her salary four times. And above all, she will be working with Sarathy and not me. So, she has already started working for Boss Consulting.”
“That’s great, but poor Sarathy. He is stuck with you forever.”
“Come on Subha! You know, I appreciated his work too. I have given him a promotion with a salary hike.”
“Wow, you seem to be on a genuine salary hike spree!”
“All thanks to you.”
“Me? What did I do with that?”
“I just followed in your footsteps, ‘kill them with kindness’, that’s it.”
“Not again!”
