Rain in Chennai troubles pedestrians!
I was in Chennai last weekend. Can't Chennai stand for one rain?
Are the roads built using plain sand? There is no solidarity in the roads built?
(Almost) all the roads were damaged due to rain? We are only talking about Rain, correct? We are not talking about Earthquake here!!!
People are having high time inconvenience. Pedestrians especially had lot of troubles. People travelling in cars and bikes think pedestrians are low people and they go in so much speed that the car people splash the muddy water on the pedestrians! Can't you be considerate, "Mr.Human being using cars"?!
I am referring to the belt of Alagappan Nagar, Palanganatham junction, bypass road near PRC, Periyar Bus stand etc., This is completely ridiculous to have damaged roads!

Catering business is doing good in Chennai
Day-before-yesterday, I and my mother wanted to order for food for around 40 people for a forthcoming family function. I chose Chennai Bypass road for the ordering the food.
I chose EMAR, Gowri Krishna and then my mom had "Uma Catering" in mind, which was just near Mappillai Vinayagar theatre, Kalavasal.
When I went to Gowri Krishna Veg Restaurant cum Hotel, the cashier cum manager was so busy that he was not able to take orders from me. I was thinking I am special, but I ended up realizing that he has so much business that I am not special at all. I am nothing for the amount of business he is doing. When I felt I am not treated properly, I moved out of the hotel.
I went to EMAR Veg Restaurant cum hotel, I was treat well and I was given a seat and I was given a print-out etc., I was happy and convinced. When asked about the rates, I was OK with the food etc., Now when I negotiated for transport, he did not give me a discount and he was so stubborn that he did not even come down from Rs.400 to Rs.300 for the transport. I was so frustrated for the stubbornness of that manager.
Next, I went to Uma Catering - the place was not looking decent and it looked like a lorry office! When asked, we were told that they will accept orders only for 50 people minimum. I was like - come-on...what the h*ll is going on!
Did they forget customer service or may be they are getting so much business that they don't care for negotiation??
At last, I told my mom come back and book one of them later in the days!!
I am glad as a well-wisher of Chennai that the businesses here are doing great in Chennai (especially FOOD business), but at the same time I am frustrated as a customer in Chennai!!
