People readily hug each other when greeting. Geeta has been a regular “victim” . The neighbor does it, my realtor does it.. I have not been so lucky though
A friend and I were installing his new GPS which has Bluetooth capability and can sync with his cell phone. So when you are driving and a call comes in the cell phone diverts the call to the GPS and you can speak to the GPS. The GPS also refreshes itself with all the phone numbers on the cell phone. So, as I said, we were setting it up and my friend accidentally triggered a call from the GPS and we ended up dialing the 911 number. A clipped voice said” Police” and my friend said” Sorry sir, wrong number!” and hung up.
I went to the local laundry store- I decided that it was just too much to spend evenings pressing my clothes . I asked him the charges and he said “Dollar and 80 cents wash and press” . I regret fighting with the local Bhaiya in Mulund when he was charging me 1.25 rupees!!
I joined the local Library where you can draw books and VCDs/DVDS and CDs – the books are free and the CDS are a dollar each for rental- this is terrific. Periodically, the Library places some 50 books on a rack near the door and lets you take them home for free- no need to return them . I found a Audio book ( 4 cassettes)on sharks recently and came home with it…
We have “Lunch with the leadership “ program on site and I asked to lunch with the big Boss I was invited along with three others to Lunch at the cafeteria and was supplied a $8 coupon – lunch is not free here- So we sat down and introduced ourselves. One lady in the group had the name of Mercedes – a typical Mexican name- and the boss was checking if it was spelt exactly like that of the German automobile. She said she had a daughter and boss asked her “What is her name?” She said Anna- Boss was clearly disappointed and wanted to know why she was not named a “Cadillac”?! I had a tough time keeping myself from rolling on the aisles…
