Theres this ad I saw on TV. It was a great ad showing people adjusting like for instance asking people to move so that a guy can sit in a crowded train and showing lots of people adjusting to the situation with the motto saying that Thank god some things in life you don’t have to adjust like our brand of underwear. It was funny and its true there are lots of adjustment to be made. Like for instance India is making so many adjustment, against Pakistan, US and many countries. But the irony is that Indian people are adjusting more than the country because we are adjusting our Prime Minister. Isnt that funny.
But in life we have to adjust. Sometimes we do because of the circumstances and we have no choice and sometimes we bite the bullet and do it even though we have a choice but we do it cause we are the good guys or gals and think of others. But in order to pick the latter choice one has to let go of their ego. Thats the hardest part and unfortunately i am not immune to it. Still a long way for me to go on that path.
Credit card business is funny in India. Here they are promoting so much, like i would get atleast 4-5 calls in a day from bank asking me to take their loans or credit card. Sometimes those marketing guys are literally begging me to take their loans. That is ok but the after service in credit card sucks. I am not a big fan of credit card because of risk on the internet. But it has its advantages too, it atleast beats carrying all the cash around and pocketing the change one get. The banks in India are best. Atleast HSBC bank is best. I have credit card of HSBC Bank and its best because after using it and after 20 days i still dont get any statement. Many times they have not send me any statements that is why i think its best because one or two occasion they never charged me for the charges i did on my credit card. I must be the only one who would ask the bank is my account debited and have they charged me my visa. No dont think me as a noble person, I am doing it because i paid for the course and i want to make sure that money has been sent to the institute and that is why i m always asking have they charged me so that atleast i know that the money has been sent to the institute. Then the big battle would begin. The bank would then charge me extra for not paying my bills and then i would have to argue they never issued me the statement even though i was asking for that. Now here i am doing adjustment and i have no option because even if i have to order a book on amazon i need credit card.
Well life itself is adjustment and one has to adapt.
