Worst investment ever

Puja put her heart and soul into a project assigned to her for six months. Three days before the project’s launch, she called the organization’s executive, inquiring about any pending issues. The executive said she’d get back to her, but she never did.

Precisely 14 hours before the launch, Puja was still following up with the executive when she learned that the project had been scrapped. She was so disappointed considering all the work she’d put in, and she didn’t want to accept that it was over. Puja spent another two months following up with the management team on why the project had been scrapped.
