I went to a place and accidentally discovered my school teacher whom I last met 25 years ago. We started talking.
Teacher: "What do you do?"
Me: "I am a software consultant"
Teacher: "Nice. My son is Senior Director at a large MNC"
Me: "Nice mam."
Teacher: "I don't get to talk to him. He is so busy."
Me: "It happens mam"
Teacher: "He gifted me this phone a while back but to activate internet there are some settings to be done. You are a software consultant, right? Can you help me with it? I dont understand this software part"
Me: "Oh sure! It would be a pleasure to serve you"
While I was fixing the settings and getting internet activated... Teacher, "I asked my son to activate internet for me but he is so busy he hasn't been able to do it ever since he gifted the phone".
For style, we gift our parents mobile phones and don't help them set things up in it. What problems are we software people solving without solving one of them for our own parents?
BTW, I thanked the teacher son. He gave me an opportunity to serve my teacher.
