The SR to JR Reversal



Dr. Ravi (Fictional Name) was a junior resident in the Department of surgery in AIIMS, New Delhi. Dr. Ajay (Fictional Name) was the senior resident in the unit in which Dr. Ravi was posted. Both were preparing for the AIIMS Urology Mch entrance exam. 

Mch is a 3-year super-specialization course done after passing the Master of Surgery (MS) exam in general surgery. Urology is the super-specialized branch dealing with surgery of the genito-urinary system, e.g. kidney, prostate, testis, etc.

Being a brilliant student, Dr. Ravi got selected in the first attempt to the Mch Urology course and joined it while his senior resident, Dr. Ajay, did not get selected. 

Dr. Ajay kept on working as a senior resident and studying and preparing for the Mch exam. Dr. Ajay got lucky the third time and finally got selected to the Mch Urology course in AIIMS, New Delhi. By this time, his junior resident, Dr. Ravi had become the 3rd year resident in the Urology department. 

So the senior resident now became the first-year resident and his ex-junior resident became his senior resident.

A similar incidence occurred in Rajasthan (India) police department. A constable who was preparing for the Rajasthan Civil Services got selected to the Police branch and got posted as Deputy Superintendent of Police (Dy SP) with the police station where he was serving as constable coming under his jurisdiction. Now he had become a senior officer to the same inspector under who he was serving in the past.

Life is filled with ups and downs. Keep in mind that those who are junior to you now may become your senior and those who are senior to you may become your junior. Temper your behavior with people around your suitably. 

As someone had so well said, be kind to people who you pass when you are climbing the ladder of success as you may meet them as you slide/fall down the same ladder.

Education and hard work can work wonders for you and make you jump up in life. So if you are not satisfied with your career/job or your supervisor/boss/officer, make these the tool to rise above them.

The opposite case of a JR becoming SR is illustrated in 'The JR to SR Promotion'
