Chala Murari Onsite Hero Banane
The blogger was selected after a grilling interview to go Onsite to Switzerland... Find below the extracts of the Journey...
Journey .... bon voyage
i come to know at 2:45 on a sunny bangalore afternoon that i have to fly to Swiss on that day itself ... so i hurriedly rush home .. pack my bags and left home ... and i get into the cab ...
the cab driver asks me what time is the flight .... and looo .. i realise the first mistake .... FORGOT MY WATCH ... ya in a hurry i had forgotten my watch... a watch which my parents had gifted me when i got into Engg College..
then i reach airport ... check in .. then viola .. after entering the flight i realise second blunder ... i forgot my Blazer and winter jacket at the security ...
aiyoooo .... asked the jet guys could anything be done abt it .... frankly Satyam tag might have helped ...
they shipped the blazer by the next flight ... jacket stands lost ... ya it was my friends jacket ... Ranga man... i owe you one...
then a good friend of mine had told me that u should pack something before getting inside the international terminal at Chennai .... So i saw a tapri .. most of the things were expensive .. hmmm ... the cheapest item was .. well u guessed it rite .. Porota Kurma ... yummy me thought ... was just 21/- .. packed it .. went to check in ... stood in the Queue (this incident occurs very much frequently ....so henceforth will be referred as '1' ..) Femme Fatale at the Lufthansa counter ... Babe she was ... one look... and there i was flat ... she looked at me .. then at the luggage .. kabhi idhar .. kabhi udhar ... then she said those three golden words ... UR LUGGAGE(read cabin baggage) is HEAVY ... i felt hell break loose .... well technically speaking i carried only 12 kgs... my roommate , colleague and good friend amit had carried 14 Kgs ... hmmm ... in full public view i had to open both the suitcases .. transfer all the ready to mix (for the non-bangaloreans, read MTR ready to eat) from cabin baggage to check-in one ... brought the wt back to 7.6 kgs .. wow .. what an achievement ... : ) ... femme fatale though was not very impressed i guess ... bcos she did not ask for my phone number !!!!!!
well the journey does not end .. now at the immigration check . .... 1 .... (i told i will be using short forms for ease of prose ...) ... after at ten minutes ... in whole public view i did that .. yeah ... i did that ... dropped the porota korma on the floor ... pachakkk .. whole floor was dirty ... i was the centre of attraction... f*** (sorry no offence intended) ... very embrassing .... later check is over .. thankfully there were no problems (though his event is very infrequent it will still be coded as '2' ...)... i still do not understand why here everything went smooth ... : ) ... customs check ... 2.... airport security check .. 2 ... flight ...2. ... frankfurt ... well ... flight landed at 7:45 .. next flight was at 8:05 ... aha ... u will understand the significance of this statement later .... frankfurt is a huge airport .. finally found the terminal ... and the flight ... the flight was not particularly very interesting .. the flight had a not so good looking air hostess ... reached Geneva ... on time ... then check out .. 2 .. security clearance ... 2 .... then i stand at the baggage place .. BAGGAGE LOST ... well then found a gora.. well the gora did not understand the queens language.. so had to use actions... BAG.. LOST..!!! .. asked him what to do ... again went to lufthansa counter .. 1 .... filled forms ... was given assurance that the baggage wiill be delivered to hotel ... at night .. reached hotel somehow ... checked in ..2 ... well its not so 2 actually .. bcos femme fatale at reception did not understand english ...
finally called office .. they said i have to be in office ... thanks to Aradhya who told me step by step procedure to reach office ... well the funny part ......... Yakalaspur told me keep a set in cabin baggage .. had a blazer ... thank god .. well tie .. shirt ... blazer ... and SPORT SHOES ... The client Lead for the Project was stunned seeing me ... ahhhhhhhh .....
Thats all folks !!! .. More in second Post ;)

Anna....
Nice attempt to conceal your
Identity.... BTW what about your Puncture Shop at Kerala? And your T-Kaapi Shop... I mean Anna's Cafe... ( As you had named that 4 by 4 tapri of yours )?
Well what else can be expected from a mallu THAT evolved from a carton of CRUDE OIL.... :-D
BTW.... Now you must be suffering from the so called FOOT-IN-MOUTH Disease .... :-D arent you ? :-D
Hope to see more CLOSE-TO-REALITY Stuff from you :-)
