My 50 days in Chennai

…..
Before I started to Chennai itself many people mentioned…….no …rather warned me of Chennai. Most of them mentioned about the terrific climate , and others about the traffic and few about the people..

As always I gave a damn to them..and told these are the problems which u face anywhere in the world..:-) But ya..i was wrong.

The day I arrived I was put in a so called “guest house” opp.to my office.Ihad great hopes thinking of stay in a studio apartments or some place like that.But when my rickshaw stopped infront infront of Hotel Sangetha..That was just a beginning to my losing hopes and dreams..The room was crampy and it stinks like shit.Fortunately there was A/C and a TV.Two days there and I moved to Vineeth’s Place..
But the true nature of the people of this part of the world was/is experienced from the office.People are so conservative and they are allergic to Change.I was shocked when I was told that there wont be internet connection to me ,as by band doesn’t allow me to have one.Same is the case for direct-phone connection and even a visiting card…It sounds funny but yes that’s the reality.
Right from the day 1 I have been requesting/begging for a internet connection.Googling has become a part of my life and frankly I was so obsessed with it.These days net banking or online bill payments are not hi-fi..its just mere comfort and time saving...
I don’t know how can somebody live without internet these days..
Manager don’t even reply to emails or don’t have time to talk…Egoism at its best…
People cant think out of box or not willing accept change….

Don’t know how far I will stay here…

Indian Slavery …….

We Indians are known for our hospitality…Our tourism dept has the caption “Adithi Devo Bhava…”

But many a times this hospitality has often resulted in bending our spinal cord before a foreigner..Yes I think its in our blood to act as a slave to these foreigners…
We stand up when the come inside a hall or room..We make way for them in the queue,we keep listening to their talks, rather we talking…...we open the door for them, always keep waiting for our turn…….

Yes I have seen …the security fellow of my office opens the door when any “white” come near…he don’t give a rats ass to other fellow Indians…Whites have different policies…they don’t need any dress codes,no time sheets, cabs to pick/drop them, stay in studio apatments…
When we travel to their land ..they give a damn…Here we make special dishes for them,,,there we eat what those assholes eat…And we speak for adopting western culture…J
Yes I feel we have it in our blood, the attitude to be slave always…
