Like in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Concept of Service....Does any one, any more know what that means?

DOES ANY ONE ANY MORE KNOW WHAT IS SERVICE!!

Ooof! I am go tired talking to these Mobile phone customer service people, All I asked them was if they could change the number of the new connection that I was planning to take up. The agent at the desk readily agreed to my request and said it would done in a Days time. Wonderful! I thought.

It's been a Month now and I still have some stupit number that came with the SIM, I call them up every week and set the same sob story that the request is still open adn no updates are available about it.

A simple servie.... All that stupid freak of the mobile operator has got to do is change the association of my SIM number to the new requested Mobile number, a minutes job, and they are dancing on it for a Month now. This is the kind of service that we get in Namma Bangaloru!

Just this other day my Mom and Dad were here and I got a Auto to take them out, the Auto Drive started cribing as he had to wait for a couple of minutes for my Mom to get down from the first floor, and them he started complaining about the number of packages that we were trying to take. Dad just told him once, "Look Mr. Auto Driver, you are in this service business, so don't cry to do service. If you are being inconvenienced, you do your service sincerely and request for more pay and we will gladly pay you more for the inconvenience caused."

After that he didn't cirb anymore, but the point here is no-body and I mean no-body any more seem to have any idea as to what a Service is. Be it the customer who is entitled to it or be it the vender who is obligated to serve.

Can we do something about this? Shouldn't we get the service that we deserve for the money we pay!

Dude! where's my Life?

God! How I love to write in my blog! If only I could do it more regularly. Any ways I was traveling to my home town this weekend and in the BUS(yes, in a RTC bus) I was just thinking how life went by since I joined work 5 years ago. The memories are still fresh in my mind, the first day at offcie, the induction program, How we got our employee numbers, the training days, making new freinds, 3 months later, first day in the project, my first meeitng with my boss. Now it's already 5 years and I am almost at the verge of being on the other side of the Desk to a new commer in the project. Well there are a lot of good meomries and some bad ones, at Office, from these 5 years. Outside of office I can't think of a lot of things to say about and that is exactly what I want to write about today.

My point is, life in the past 5 years has mostly been office and only office, have I been to parties, fun trips etc. Yes! I have, only, all of them were with collegues. Yesterday in the bus I was thinking where has my life outside office gone? Early in the morning I get up and go to office(to avoid the busy hour traffic). After a whole day of work, I try to catch the earliest bus out of office and by the time I get back home it is around 6:30PM, and I am so dog tried that I just don't have the enthu to do anything but watch some TV, eat and Sleep.


I just want to get out of this routine, have a life, a good one! and I promised myself with the BUS as my witness(so I remember every day when I go to office in the BUS) that I am going to do it!
