At least you got back you box, thanks to God for that. Yes, people have become selfish... Some incident made me say that aloud while travelling in an auto in Mumbai and the autowala told me... "madam you need to be selfish and take care of yourself first then only you can take care of others!"

Her suitcase with all the baby stuff like diapers and drinking chocolate (Her two year old won't drink our very own Boost or Bournvita) just because a passenger traveling by the same shuttle to the Mumbai air terminal walked away with her suitcase and boarded a flight to Indore. To add to the misery he claims that he did know that the suitcase was not his but he walked away with it because he would miss his connecting flight. She got her suitcase back after one and a half months when her brother in law's neighbor collected it from Indore and handed it over to her BIL in Pune.He conveniently got Kingfisher Airlines to deliver his suitcase at his door step because Priya had the sense to leave it at Mumbai air port. So we are not short of morons and thickheads.Hip Grandmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16891699611146003601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5974677.post-10138982806258590572011-02-09T08:21:11.340+07:002011-02-09T08:21:11.340+07:00I'm getting more and more used to people being...I'm getting more and more used to people being rude and selfish but for some reason it still catches you off guard sometimes doesn't it?Training a puppyhttp://www.trainingapuppy.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5974677.post-90024190792160680892011-02-08T16:17:52.685+07:002011-02-08T16:17:52.685+07:00Praveen: Apologize! ha, her husband kept saying th...Praveen: Apologize! ha, her husband kept saying that I had made a mistake too!! <br />This is the curse of such thathas and mamas only - so always carry chain.<br /><br />Raj: then what do they call these boxes now - oh, suitcase?<br />Ya, I am rediscovering the joy of blogging , thanks to that stupid woman.<br /><br />Shraddha:You know if I lived there I might have tried to make life miserable for them too by taking their box to the police station in coimbatore.

Was wondering why you weren't posting for so long.<br />I AM one of those maamis who get laughed at as I meticulously carry the chain and lock on train and bus journeys, something that my mother does always. <br />And yes, we live in a world inhabited by all sorts.
