Those Small Things!!!

Well it has been fun writing about my Passion i.e CRICKET.  But writing only about one subject can be monotonous especially for readers. So I have decided to add few more variations to my Blog apart from Cricket. When World Cup was on, whole India was Eating, Drinking and Sleeping Cricket and immediately IPL has come.

Cricket fever is still gripping India but WC was like a Dream, a War which India wanted to win but IPL is more entertainment than Passion, I know everyone has their own favorite team but the passion for your country is nonpareil. Every game was huge in World Cup especially in knock out stages. But not so with IPL, so I will just update few Blogs in between about IPL. Well now I will get back to what I am here to write about.

There are some Small things in life that you have to live with. These things can be irritating, make you angry but they are the part and parcel of your life. I will list down few such small things that at times made me livid, mad and crazy. If you are a short-tempered as I am, then these things might be more dreadful. I will list down few examples especially from my personal experiences. 

In a city like Mumbai, you are accustomed to live in those high storyed buildings or Towers. If you are late for a meeting or appointment, and you rush out of your flat and press the button of the building lift. Nine times out of ten, the lift is either at some lower floor i.e. if you are at 15^th floor lift will be at 1^st or ground floor or lift door will be left opened somewhere by someone and it will take ages for the lift to reach your floor. 

If you are waiting for a bus, more often than not all other buses which are not going to your route will come first. Sometimes it can be more than 15 to 20 minutes at the bus stop and still there will be no sign of your bus. Frustrated by the events, you will take the auto and when you peep out of the auto, you will see that bus for which you were waiting since last 20 minutes at the bus stop or just right  next to your auto. To add salt to your wounds, the bus will be empty and you will curse yourself for spending 50 bucks for a journey which would cost you just 10 bucks. 

Now its summer time in Mumbai and climate is seriously hot. When you come home in evening after spending a busy day in office or outdoors, you will take off the shirt from your body to get rid of heat. When you are enjoying your favorite Television show lying half-naked on the bed, suddenly the door bell rings and some unwanted guests arrives at your home and immediately you rush in to cover yourself with another T-Shirt or Shirt .

This example is related to my Business. I am into Real Estate Business; my job is to help clients to buy flats. We try to show around three to four flats to a client. When a client likes a flat from the options we showed him, either that flat is sold out earlier or the owner of the flat has decided not to sell the flat now. To make the matters worse, the client takes out his frustration on us by telling us” why the hell you showed us the flat when it was already sold out?” 

Apart from the above examples there are various other small things which might upset or make you angry say when you go to a restaurant and the food item you wanted is unavailable, or on a Friday evening when you are busy working out on your weekend plans with your friends, your Team Leader enters your Cabin and announces “Guys we are working this Saturday”. So this are the small things that can be irritating, annoying, maddening but you have to live with it.
