Canada wapas pahunchtay hi may nay job ki phir talaash shroo kar di. Fredericton jo kay New Brunswick province ka shehr hay jahan mujhay job ki offer hui. Ek construction company thi jis ko kisi aisay banday ki zuroorat thi jo technical side bhi rakhta ho aur letter communications bhi karta ho. Bahut basic si job thi.. Meri field say related bhi nahi thi per Allah ka naam liya aur kaam shroo kia. Fredericton Canada kay east coast per hay. Aur may Regina say move ho kar fredericton aa gaya. Company ko is province may kaam shroo kiyay koi do saal hi huay thay. Un ka office abhi ban raha tha is liye unhon nay mujhay apnay hi ek banai huay ghar may ek karma day diya. Us ghar kay doosray kamron may aur log rehtay thay.. Woh sab univ kay students thay. Meray kamray ki deewar jis kamray ko lagti thi woh company ka temporary office tha. To meray liye to best tha… haha ghar may hi office. Suna tha company ka owner ek Saudi hay job kabhi kabhar hi canada aata hay. Mera supervisor ek french aadmi tha jis ka naam Yves tha. Yves bahut hi straight forward kisam ka aadmi tha aur bahut sanjeeda. Shayad poori zindagi may kabhi na hansa ho ga. Yves say achi dosti ho gaee thi. Mujh say umar may kafi bara tha is liye us ka tajarba bahut tha. Koi taqreeban ek maheena wahan per kaam kiya… paisay waqt per mil jaatay thay… mera to kaam bhi wajibi sa tha. Office may mukhtalif workers ka aana jana laga rehta tha. Jab meri chutti bhi ho jaati thi.. Tab bhi planning or field kay supervisors office may aatay jaatay rehtay thay… mujhay deewar kay us paar awazain aati rehti theen. Lekin apnay off time may off hi rakhta tha… kabhi office kay muamlay may off time may dakhl andazi nahi ki.. Na hi kabjhi unhon nay mujh say overtime ka kaha.
Ek subah hasb-e-maamool namaz kay baad quran ki tilawat kar raha that kay darwazay per knock hua. Darwaza khula to samnay Yves khara tha. Kehnay laga Boss bula raha hay.. Kal raat hi Saudi say aaya hay aur office may baitha hay. Mainay kaha, I will be there on my time. I am busy at the moment. Yves nay aankhon may aankhein daalein jaisay kuch kehna chahta ho per phir yeh keh kar chala gaya kay ok I will let him know.
May apni job kay time per office may gaya to Boss baitha tha… mujhay dekhtay hi us nay salaam kia. Mujhay sab log Mohammad kay naam say bulatay hain. Kehnay laga.. Mr. Mohammad sometimes we need your assistance, if I call you, would you not come, the company cannot wait for their employees to finish their tasks. May nay kaha.. I have an appointment everyday with our rabb. I need to finish reciting my Quran before I start my work. I can tell you are a Muslim, so you should understand this. My reciting Quran will put barakah in your company as thats how I start my work. Woh kuch dair khamosh raha phir kaha, Have a seat. Kehnay laga.. Kia background hay. I told him my educational background. Kehnay laga I have an offer for you. I want you take over my accounts for the company. May nay kaha meray paas koi experience nahi hay accounts ka. Kehnay laga Dont worry about that I will have a Chartered Accountant sit with you. You will shadow him and learn everything from him that you need for this company. May nay kaha. Ek shart hay kay tum paisay time per do gay aur Jumma half day chahye. Kehnay laga… that is fine but I thought you were going to talk about the salary. May nay kaha… You are boss, you decide but it should be on time. Kehnay laga.. Mr. Mohammad you are an interesting man… ok agreed. Kehnay laga…I need you to start next week as we will shift to the new office. Poocha koi car waghaira hay.. Mainay kaha bus say chala jaaonga tumhara doosra office ziyada door nahi hay yahan say. Kehnay laga… No, talk to yves, he will get you a car. May office say nikalnay laga to Boss (Us ka naam Khaled tha) bola... Yeh topi tum har waqt pehntay ho.. May nay kaha haan meri identity hay kiyoun koi problem hay. Kehnay laga .. nahi koi problem nahi hay , aglay haftay mulaqat ho gi. May office say nikal kar kamray may aa gaya.
Yeh sab achanak kia ho raha tha mujhay kuch samajh nahi aa rahi thi. Abhi bilkul choti si job say yeh kaisi promotion thi… woh bhi aisi job jis ka mujhay kuch pata nahi tha.
Aglay haftay office gaya to ek shaandar office meray hawalay kia. Building per bahut paisa kharch kar rakha tha. Office kay saath ek apartment building ki construction isi company ka project tha jis may luxury apartments ban rahay thay. Mazdoor, supervisors, engineers sab kaam say lagay huay thay… Main office may baith to gaya per Alif bay bhi nahi pata thi karna kia hay.. Kahan say shroo karna hay.
Yves aaya.. Kehnay laga May-o-mid (french log Mohammad aisay hi boltay hain...lol) congratulations for the job. We will go for the staff meeting, come join us. We went into the board room where boss and others were sitting. Aik boorha shakhs bhi baitha tha jis kay haath burhapay ki wajah say kaamp rahay thay. Boss bola… Mr. Mohammad..this is your friend for the next year. His name is John. May nay haath milaya. Boss nay kahan aap dono apna kaam start karein mujhay engineers say meeting karni hay. May aur John wapas meray office may aa gaey. John company ka Chartered Accountant tha lekin us ko tab hi bulatay thay jab zuroorat parhti thi. Woh full time company may kaam nahi karta tha. Us kay apni bhi practice thi. Lekin ab us ko ek saal kay liye hire kar liya gaya tha. Us nay mujhay accounts per or softwares per training daini thi taakay company kay accounts update rakh sakoon. Jo shakhs mujh say pehlay meri position per tha us nay accounts may kuch ghaplay kiye thay aur company nay us per court may case kar rakha tha.
John bahut hi shafeeq insaan tha. Us nay saara filing system samjhaya. Software bhi samjhaya jo mainay bahut jald seekh liya. Hum nay mil kay company kay pichlay 2 saal kay saaray accounts fix kiyay. Bahut ghapla tha per sab sort out ho gaya.. Taqreeban 4 lakh dollars ka fraud tha sab accounts may aur yeh paisay company nay suppliers ko denay thay. Suppliers kay saath negotion kay liye Boss nay mujhay or Yves ko bhaija. Hamara kaam bas yeh tha kay time buy kia jaye taakay un kay paisay lotai ja sakain. Alhamdulillah Yves kay saath achi partnership rahi aur 2 haftay kay ander sab suppliers jo taqreeban 28 kay qareeb say negotiations ho gayeen.
Boss bahut khush tha kay time mil gaya. Kehnay laga Mr. Mohammad now I can feel I can leave this company in good hands when I am away. Boss kay Saudia may bhi 2,3 businesses thay.. Kai aur mulkon may bhi woh aata jaata rehta tha..Boss ka complement acha lag raha tha kay woh mujhay trust karta hay. Us kay baad 2 saal tak may nay isi position per kaam kia.
Is saaray time may Kulthum say taqreeban roz baat hoti thi. Roz us ko boss kay aur yves kay qissay sunata. Mujhay hamaisha yaad dilati kay namaz ka paband rahoon quran ki tilawat karoon aur as usual khanay ka khayal rakhoon.. Isi doran may nay Kulthum ki immigration ka bhi apply kar diya tha. Kulthum kay abhi 2 semester rehtay thay… us ki parhai khatm nahi honi thi… us ka dil hi nahi tha khatm karnay ka… hamesha kehti bas lay jao yahan say ab dil nahi karta akayla rehnay ko. Us ki immigration per lawyer ki fees, govt ki fees mila kar kafi kharcha ho gaya tha. Phir aakhirkar us ka visa aa gaya. Visay per likha tha kay 1 maheenay kay under under canada ponchna hay. Dono ki khushi ki inteha na thi.
