One short story about abdul kalam

There were about 70 scientists working on a very hectic
project. All of them were really frustrated due to the pressure
of work and the demands of their boss but everyone was
loyal to him and did not think of quitting the job.
One day, one scientist came to his boss and told him – Sir, I
have promised to my children that I will take them to the
exhibition going on in our township. So I want to leave the
office at 5 30 pm. His boss replied “OK, You’re permitted to
leave the office early today”. The Scientist started working.
He continued his work after lunch. As usual he got involved to
such an extent that he looked at his watch when he felt he
was close to completion. The time was 8.30 PM. Suddenly he
remembered of the promise he had given to his children.
He looked for his boss, He was not there. Having told him in
the morning itself, he closed everything and left for home.
Deep within himself, he was feeling guilty for having
disappointed his children. He reached home. Children were
not there. His wife alone was sitting in the hall and reading
magazines.
The situation was explosive, any talk would boomerang on
him. His wife asked him “Would you like to have coffee or
shall I straight away serve dinner if you are hungry.
The man replied “If you would like to have coffee, I too will
have but what about Children ??” .Wife replied “You don’t
know?? , Your manager came here at 5.15 PM and has taken
the children to the exhibition “.
What had really happened was …. The boss who granted him
permission was observing him working seriously at 5.00 PM.
He thought to himself, this person will not leave the work, but
if he has promised his children they should enjoy the visit to
exhibition. So he took the lead in taking them to exhibition
The boss does not have to do it every time. But once it is
done, loyalty is established.
That is why all the scientists at Thumba continued to work
under their boss even though the stress was tremendous.
By the way, can you hazard a guess as to who the boss was ?
He was none other than Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam .
