Memories of Mumbai.

I was very much nervous, when our SBU told me to go on deputation to MUMBAI.

my spontaneous reaction to that is, Noooo! I can’t. a movement, I imagined the words what others told about Mumbai

Train..!
Crowd…!
Dust…!
Pick pocketers in train….!
Humidity…!
Hot…!

Hell lot of stuff’s. I can’t.

What is this, God is bad .This is what, I told initially. (Let us see what I told letter)

Unfortunately I met another soul (Mincho), who was also asked to go to Mumbai.

Finaly we struggled a lot to work out some strategies at office and we are finally set to feel the Mumbai punch..

I am first time going to see such a big city, I mean Bangalore was the first biggest city I have ever seen in my life..

so anything is a wonder for me.

Office has booked our air tickets and they informed us.

I was amazed to here that. I remember, I use to dream about flying in Airoplane. At least once in my life time.

I told to my self, beta God is gr8 man.. coooool

With two big bags (My address banner is attached to it) I came to airport, Mincho looked at me and laughed sarcastically.
Innocently he asked, are you traveling by air for the first time.
I said Yes. (by controlling my exagduration…!)

I had seen lot of satellite Images and Aireal photography,with that knowledge, I could able to locate lots of check dams, water sheds, Ground terrain model.It's a great experience.

When we came to Mumbai it was Daaam hot. Too crowdy. Dirt
More important factor is wherever I looked, there was a series of old buildings. Now I was very enthusiastic about our accommodation. As I traveled towards Khandivili (Actually it’s Khandivali, Talib corrected it for me) my imagination about office accommodation getting worsen and worsen.

When we reached Whispering Palms. Really I was amazed to see the huge building (20 storied). And the town ship, it was great.. I realy whispered…!

Second miracle … again I said God is some more gr88…

I learnt that, “work hard, expect less, A perfect way to happiness”

I will just give you a proof for this proverb

so far my expectation were moving towards negative y axis.

After seeing the accommodation, it started moving towards positive y axis (In a rapid phase)

My expectations about office was very much high by the time I reached office.

Finally when I reached office, I thought ohhh My…….what’s this..fish..

Finally when I reached the working place, I didn’t thought that, I will get, such a right cubicle, again god was much more gr888 man.

As the day went I started seeing around me. Let me introduce some of the important persons whom I met in my next post.
