Family Vibes

21 Comments

Life is all about treasuring small pleasures and filling your heart with charming vibes to enjoy one leaf at a time in leisure time.

I am treasuring one such memory today when my son texted me the following.

He did a chore for me with a great sense of humor.

Father Daughter Conversation

30 Comments

So, I was driving my 9 year old daughter to the library yesterday and we were having our father-daughter catch-up, for work kept me away from home.

It was gray skies since morning and on our way home the clouds opened up. My daughter invariably said, “Oh, Boy”

“Why did you say oh, Boy? You could have said oh, girl.” I enquired with a smile.

“That’s because I like saying, boy.” She explained in her chirping tone.

“So, you like boys,” I said with a teasing tone.

“Yes, I do otherwise how I will like you.” Came the prompt response making me speechless.

Handling Uncomfortable Question

52 Comments

If you are uncomfortable answering a question imposed on you, instead of fumbling to find an appropriate answer ask back a simple question – “why did you ask?”

I have tried this trick, and 9 out of the 10 times I was able to escape without answering, for the person who puts you on spot usually gets uncomfortable answering the REAL intent behind his inquisitive query 😊

Do you agree?

I will not let you sleep

36 Comments

And for Humor…

When it comes to services industry nothing can beat south-east Asia. People there take services delivery experience to a complete different level. As grandeur as t may sound sometimes it becomes a cause of annoyance.

You don’t agree? 😊 Let me narrate an incidence to prove my point.😊

When I travel to India I always enter India through Delhi. This is regardless of my final destination.

During one such trip, I followed my usual routine. I landed in Delhi at around 10:00 PM. By the time I reached my brother’s home, it was almost midnight. We had a lot to catch up and before I realized it was time for me to go back to the airport, for I had an early morning flight to Chennai.

Though I sleep badly on plane, this time I forced myself to get some rest, for I was going to the office directly from the airport. Tiredness coupled with the looming day in front succeeded in putting me into a deep slumber.

An hour into the flight I felt a gentle nudge but it didn’t succeed to break my repose. The gentle nudge was followed by a deviant push. I woke up in shock only to find a smiling petite air hostess questioning, “what would you like to have sir. Veg or nonveg?”

though I was frustrated I avoided to give any curt response. Instead I forced a smile and politely mentioned I would prefer to sleep.

I struggled for some time but somehow got back into sleep mode again. I was woken again. This time by a flight attendant quizzing me why I am not eating. I smiled and said, “like the seat belt indicator, you should also have a do not disturb button.”

He failed to get my sarcasm and responded back stating he will get me a suggestion form. 😂

In the US, if you are asleep on a plane, no one will wake you. In India I felt my mother was traveling with me, concerned about my lost appetite.🤗👨‍🍳

Regardless of my not so pleasant experience, no one can beat the South Asian travel industry service quotient. I would still happily give them 10/10.
