BSNL FUSSY BUSINESS

These are govt offices...dont expect people to work here!

Really? is it some kind of a sin to expect services in a govt office??? I mean services on time.

What is it that makes all the employees equally lethargic, and unhumane...who doesnt care for anything but their asses comfort.

Ofcourse there is the see and learn philosophy. Any guy who enters into this world will see guys immersed in corruption, lethargy, and self business. He is happily settled into thinking that he has got everything easy, and work is a far away priority in here. you sit there and enjoy the salary, and all the other benefits too. In comparison to a geek breaking his head day night for multinationals, and still earning meagre amount as he is just a junior in the long heirarchy, these guys have a lifetime guarantee about everything..except ofcourse life.

ya....the reason why i am going yapping abt all this is bcoz of my experience with the BSNL.

One month back we made a call to one of the bsnl agents to get a new broadband connection at our hostels. In 5 minutes, literally, he was there. He behaved very courteously, took our applications and 500 bucks and went of leaving us happy. in a weeks time as he promised we were to get connection. A WEEKS TIME...yeah...its after all BSNL....they just had to pull a 10m cable from nearby post to our hostel rooms, but ya...tat is 1 week worth work.

So we waited.

we didnt disturb the sales guy in anyway...but 1 week passed and we enquired. There was some shifting going on. They need another week. See how good guys we are. We didnt make any fuss. Just a week rite. Then we would be getting our basic necessity of a net connection. but then no body answers your call. it goes out of range, and hardly once wen he took the phone, he answered that he is outta station. So wat about our connection? Now he says a new persons name and asks us to enquire with that guy. We have to start again, as he has a new bunch of promises. He then gives the line mans number. we bugged him for almost another 1 week to get him bring the connection. he wants money too.

Now we need the modem. that is just configuration of a userid and password. A common user makes an account as easily as anything. they need one week for that. After they have completed that, they informed us, and we went happily. There they make us wait 2 hours to just hand over the modems.

What are they?
Gods????

Who the hell gave them such authority.........??
In one of my vissits to the bsnl office to know the status, i got out of control and was praising them for their sincerity. The shameless guy looked up and just said, "i will give u the number, You go complain."

Seriously who gave them these powers??

There is a minimum speed that people can work with rite? These guys even learn to break the barriers of lethargy created by god.

God Save uS!

There should be a rule or an agreement which their officials sign and put seal to when they take that initial 500 bucks. Agreement should mention clearly the time they will take to install the connection in full working condition, the minimum speed of the connection, etc. In case of non compliance, they should pay fine or are ready to have their asses sued. The fine amount to be agreed upon also. If sellers can have terms and conditions on their stupid products, why cant the consumers?!

Padmaavat Review

Image
Padmaavat(i) - is a lavish visual spectacle from the master of Indian magnum opus, Sanjay Leela Bhansali. It has all the ingredients you expect from a film like his, but compared to his previous movies there were some slight misses.  The movie starts off strong, obviously because of the visuals, but slowly meanders into sequence of three lines of 'Rajput praising' just for the sake of it, songs that don't fit but were there because those worked in his 'BajiRao', Deepika and Sh ahid becoming side caricatures in a 'heroic' saga and so on. But the film is entertaining, and Ranveer is Ranveer. Ranveer's screen time and performance eclipse the other title characters, and so when they come on screen all they have is some punch dialogs, which was irritating. Aditi is always a pleasant sight for sore eyes. As a director, I feel SLB failed because I thought he had a great story in hand, but instead of making it into a proper political emotional saga, he wen

Aningaaq : Jonas Cuaron's 'Gravity' spin off explores the other side to Bullock's distress call

Image
Remember this scene from 'Gravity' where Sandra Bullock's character Ryan Stone, loses all hope of surviving and shuts down her drone. Just before that she finds peace in her conversation through her transmitter with a guy called Aningaaq. You hear his voice, and his speech, a dogs bark and a crying child. Have you wondered who they were? Well, you don't have to any more. Jonas Cuaron, son of the director Alfonso Cuaron himself, who co-wrote 'gravity' alongside his father, wrote a shortie based on this conversation. Financed by Warner Videos, who wanted the short to come out with their Blu-ray editions, found the short's potential to be much more than they intended. Now doing rounds in various festivals for short films, they might be just in luck if they could get a nomination for their short film 'Aningaaq' at the prestigious Oscars this year, in the live action short film category. If so, it could be very much possible that Warner's could b

Childhood memories of a Movie Maniac!!!

Image
Location : Kochi, India. Recently, I went to watch the lastest Spiderman movie ('The Amazing Spiderman 2'). There was very less to be amazed by the movie, but I had a nostalgic experience watching a little boy of maybe 3-5 years, sitting on his mother's lap and getting excited as a robed Spidey comes falling through the breeze. He was suddenly jumping up and down, as Spidey swung on his fiber swings, and the excitement on his face would make you melt. A happy father besides him, gave us a smile when he saw us looking at the boy. I remember when I was not more than 7, I had gone to the then famous English movie theatre in Ernakulam, 'Sridhar', to watch 'Twister'. I was so excited and curious that day about these giant winds. I also developed a crush for Helen hunt, but lets not go into that ;). Me and my father came out of the theatre and walked down to the Marine Drive nearby, and sat on a wooden bench facing the sea. I had visuals of this huge tornado
