In a major change in FirstRain engineering team, the evergreen and ever ready Rohit bid adieu and moved to the Royal Bank of Scotland. His move has left us all in awe and we cannot believe that Rohit would not be working with us any more. I have been working closely with Rohit for the last year or so and I owe him a lot. He has taught me how to handle complex problems related to Databases. Query writing, optimizations and even designing better modules. He always kept pushing me and I some times even got frustrated but still I learnt a lot from him. The amount of knowledge and experience that he had, he would be hard to replace. When I was questioned by our VP Technology about my reactions on Rohit's departure, I just said that you can replace the talent but you cannot replace the experience. But we all are very happy for Rohit and we honor his decision and wish him continued success.
He was the one who was always ready for party and used to party hard. He was our party planner and he had so many restaurants menu card in his memory. His favourite cuisine was Chinese and he remembered all the dishes that were served by Golden Dragon, Bercos and Yo China and also knew the prices for most of them. He had this special talent where he just had to be told how many people are vegetarian and how many are Non vegetarian and he would order food for all. He was really fast and mostly he ordered brilliant food. He deserved a good Farewell party so we decided to take him to a disco and treat him to some really good food. We wanted to treat him with Chinese but then we could get a combination of Chinese and Disc together so we decided to go for disc and compromise on Chinese and go for Mughlai.
We booked the Last Chance in Sahara Mall Gurgaon and we had a great party. We drank, danced and drank again. It was a Monday night but we enjoyed ourselves like hell. It was so satisfying when Rohit labelled that party as one of the best official parties he has been to. That statement made our day and we were satisfied that the treat we gave Rohit has been effective and he has enjoyed it. It was a great time and we will cherish the memories for long. We are still to believe that Rohit is not there working with us and we miss him. He has been a great leader and definitely a great Engineer. He has debugging skills second to none and we will sure miss his services. We also gave him a small gift as our token of love and admiration that we had for him. Having said so much it is still hard to imagine that Rohit has moved on. He would have been my last guess if I were to guess the name of the person who will leave FR. But I guess this is life which is always full of surprises and keeps you on your feet always.
