Folks, I wanna start by thanking the entire blind community for helping me get through one of the toughest situation in my life till date. I was fired from Amazon in Nov 2019 & was shattered. The blind community at the time really gave some good advice which helped me be in a great position that i'm in today. I'm content with the new job that i've got where i'm gonna learn a new skill whilst getting a 44% hike on my base salary at Amazon. Looking back & a bit of a retrospective if you will, getting fired from Amazon was perhaps one of the best things that happened to me as I not only got the time & opportunity to take a step back & think about real hard over what is that I truly want but also a chance to get better at my craft. I'm more confident than ever have been. In particular shout out to a guy who had mentioned the following " be proud of yourself that you are someone who cant be tamed, who refused to join the slaveship of Amazon, who was a round peg refusing to fit in the square hole". Although, my job is fairly new but I'm positive that I'm gonna have a great work life balance here. Additionally, i've also had enormous opportunities not only with respect to several interview calls but also for freelancing. I've been focused & in a great shape as well. Life is just awesome & its been a great journey so far. I would like to help anyone & everyone who might be in a similar position, please feel free to reach out, I would be more than willing to help you & pass on your resume to the recruiters in my company as well as with the recruiters whom i've built my network with. P.S: I'm a data/BI professional although i'm open to referring to anyone & everyone
