Last two days I had been to Bangalore on a Business Visit. The Day started hurriedly as I was getting myself adjusted to the Hotel Environment. I reached blore at 7.30 Am.
As I had not booked my cab for that day I had to join my Collegue who was already ready in her cab to go to the office. So I asked her to start off and I shall join her later.Little did I realize that this act of mine was going to cost me 230 rupees. Yes I had to shell out 230 bucks to reach my office in Auto. Now I realized why my friends say that cost of living in blore is high.hufffffff…
And added to my trouble the auto fellow that I hired knew only the way till Electronic city entrance and he had never been inside that area. I had very little knowledge of that area as last time I was accompanied my friend Ravinder and that tooo 6-8 months back. So all that I remember that my office was opposite Infosys Blore campus. So started my hunt as to find a glimpse of Infy.
After a struggle of 110 minutes I reached my office.
God how do people commute daily in such a heavy Traffic city!!!!!!
I just could not bear that for 2 days and wonder how people take it for granted every day.
But you know the best part of blore is that the citizens of blore are well mannered. Surprisingly every one follows traffic rules. Even if it takes more time , they are patient enuf to handle that…(Surprisingly in hyd I see ppl are in a Hurry and tend to break the junctions…)
Another interesting point abt blore is that given that the weather is always pleasant (atleast whenever I was on road I felt that way). I didn’t even see atleast one Ganesh Idol on the streets. Having habituated to see atleast 1 idol per street I was amazed to find they have no Idols on street. (May be having them wud have caused more congestion in terms of traffic)
Not all words of praise to bengaloooru….On the day of return back I accompanied my colleague to Burma Bazar a well known street for shopping and I was tempted to buy 2 dvds(50 bucks each)…21 & 88 Minutes of Al Pacino…..and when I checked the discs back at home…88 minutes DVD was Empty!!!!!!
So I bought an empty DVD for 50 bucks…&^@$$^^!@$(Keeeeeeeeeek…Censored )….
But anyways Hyderabad Rocks….Biryaani,Haleem,our small traffic jams, Ganesh Immersion at tank bund.,etc makes a Hyderabadi life rock….
