I was jumping up and down with joy! For the first time, all 51 boxes of the Sudoku puzzle in the “Week-End” newspaper were unerringly filled.

What made this experience even more remarkable was that I was working with the head of the finance department and directly reporting to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO). It was both an incredible opportunity and an immense responsibility—one that shaped my professional outlook in profound ways.
