Being mobile as quick as possible is of extreme importance to me. Not to keen on depending on the whims and fancies of the notorious Pune Rickshawalas as they clearly call the shots if they will take you from destination A to B or not! So decided I will get my driving reflexes back via a two wheeler before I move onto driving a car. Yes, I am determined to not have a driver if I can help it as I don't want to be dependent on people...it seems like it is more work to manage them than doing it yourself.
We visited the Activa showroom on a beautiful bright sunny day of 95 deg F temperature! After looking at the models on paper in an A/C room! we went out to check out the vehicles and accessories. Did I tell you about the number of glaring looks I got for choosing a glaring red sawari? :-))
Let me be the Customer 1 and then there was a Mr. Customer 2.
Mr. Customer 2 kept on interrupting every 2 minutes.....I ignored once, ignore twice, and the third time around the American in me woke up thinking " so rude to keep interrupting" and the demonic Puneri in me wanted to take over.
The situation demanded that I start with a "chaaayla" under my breath and then Bhaskan Ordun (brashly) ask Customer 2,
"aaho kay madhe madhe kartay, te sales rep aamhala madat kartayat na, tumhi thamba bar jara "
but I couldn't bring my self to do it and instead said with a mega smile and on my face and an innocent tone of voice....
"Tumche prashna sampestowar me ithech ek tas bhar unhat ubhi rahile tar chaaalel na? ka ajun ek don customers yeun prashna vichare paryanta thambu?
the rest is history....I got complete attention of the sales rep and he got a FREE sales tip from me, " Ekala madat kartana tumhi aase satra janana handle nahi kele pahije na, nahitar customer parat kashala ikde yeil..baki kiti tari dealer aahet Punyat"
The million dollar Q is, Does he care? :-))
