Current mood : Serious
At present : Thinking deeply!
The above 2 lines are more of a disclaimer to present a serious blog this time around…
Just want to share this recent experience with you folks.
Its about the young generation…
Profile : A typical Software engineer, who has graduated recently and joined a prestigious IT organization with a decent salary.
Age : 22-23 years.
You may call this generation -Gen X, Gen Y or Gen Z…..For me all this mean the same. YOUNG!
On a sunny weekday last week, as I was totally Fly-chasing (Synonyms – Vetti, No Job, Lots to do-No mood), I decided to get myself a lime soda, to regain my energy to continue the fly chasing work. I went to the canteen and joined the queue for the soda.
The guy (our hero) who was standing ahead of me, ordered for 2 pepper sodas and 2 normal sodas. He continued chatting with his friends, after placing the order.
Because, there were no flies and literally nothing else to do, I was observing/looking at these folks by default.
The Sodawala, placed the filled soda glasses in front of him and called me to take the next order.
Suddenly, I hear this roaring voice of our hero “I asked for 2 pepper sodas and 2 normal sodas. Instead, you have given me, 1 pepper soda and 3 normal sodas!”
So, our sodawala, immediately replied “Sorry sir” and replaced the normal soda with a pepper soda.
While, picking up the filled glass, Our hero roared again “These IDIOTS….” and all his friends, a group of boys & girls giggled away to glory as if they just witnessed the biggest joke of the year.
Well…..That's the end of the story!
I am just thinking aloud…..
-What makes him & his group of gigglers think that they have the right to call/insult some one else like this?
-If he makes some error in his project, by mistake, how would he feel, when his client calls him an Idiot?
-Will such heroes/heroines ever learn to RESPECT others?
Sorry for using this word in this family blog…..
Only those IDIOTS know!!!
