One day "Software Engineer"

"Mudhalvan" or "Nayag" is the blockbuster hit movie by Shankar where the hero would become the CM for one day. The experience I am going to share is also a similar in one way "ONE DAY SOFTWARE ENGG" . Manmohan, a 12 year old student from Periyanaickenpalayam, Coimbatore studying in 7th standard, is affected with Hemophelia, where the blood wont clot. This child's dream is to become a Software Engg, wondering how in very early age he knows this. No wonder children of this age knows more than anyone else. He got a chance to visit Robert Bosch for one day, to me its a one in million may get a chance. 

The entire day he spent inside Bosch, he was taken to departments and explained about the projects in the department. He got a opportunity to visit many dept, get hands on experience, get to know various tools and technologies used. Though he may not able to understand the tools and technologies, few basic concepts and what he saw would have motivated him. Interacted with almost many senior people in the company whom even the people work cant meet that easy. I got a chance to interact with this child for very few minutes and I could able to see the happiness in his eyes before leaving to home. He said, one of his neighbour is a software engineer; by seeing him he also want to become like him ( similar to a dialogue by surya in Sillunu oru kadhal). He likes computer and the subject computer. On a lighter moment he said when he told one of his friend that he is going to bosch, the friend of him replied " Dai avalo periya company ulla unna eppadida vittanga (How you are allowed in such a reputed company)".

When I asked him, whether in 2021 when he completes his graduation will he become a engg in Bosch? with a smile he said a "Big Yes". You may wonder how he would got this chance!?!?!?!?!
