 The job was just to make his ends meet, not more than that.He was afraid that he might turn into how others live their life which he mentioned in one of his stories in "Sarika"- get a degree, start a job, become a servant, get pension and pass away.It is believed that he quit ( or was perhaps dismissed) from this job in 1957 because of being absent for long duration of times (as new events were happening in his life which included his second marriage to Savitri Sharma of Mussoorie).After that he worked as a journalist,writer, poet and translator during six years of stay in Calcutta and later part of his short life.Fighting bad health, money problems and intellectual clashes inside his own mind, he wrote until his death.
