What an achievement ...
As normal routine you get up in the morning thinking about how you are going to reach office, overcoming n number of obstacles and hurdles . And obstacles they sure are ... in absolute sense . Just to name a few, finding an auto to the station a big challenge , mumbai is a place where rickshaw drivers are more choosy about passengers than a lady about her dress ...obstacle 2 reaching platform on time to catch that 8.47 local which you know from your homework and research that it starts from platform 8 or 9 at boivali in which you have a very good probability of entering ... yes entering and not sitting please note .
Where if you get a chance to sit it like lady luck has started favoring you and you can start betting on horse race ... hehe... anyways let's move to next one ..on the way to your destination you are feverishly praying that train is not delayed and it makes you reach in time ... after reaching your destination you start hunting for taxi .. you jump, you run , request , threaten pull all tricks in book to get that taxi .. never mind old man or lady waiting in hot sun .. but then that's the way mumbai is sympathy less ... your goal needs to be achieved rest all can manage on their own ...
To your surprise you manage to reach on time on station and are ready to pounce with your last bit of energy ... as train arrives you immediately scan the compartments for vacant seats as bogeys go by ... your brain is in hyper active mode and working on probability of finding a seat in first class compartment .. first first class compartment goes with few vacant seat immediately you realign yourself to board 2 nd first class but in nick of movement this agile veteran out paces you and enters the compartment ... alas he gets one seat which was vacant ...
You are not disappointed and immediately activate deep scan mode searching for seat behind partitions and last seats hoping there are only 7 people and you can squeeze in ... and then it happens there is a seat vacant just behind the partition in corner which other did not realize thanks to my sharp senses and presence of mind .. immediately you jump on opportunity crushing a couple of feet in process and duly apologizing to them ..Amount of satisfaction is much more than amount of comfort seat gives ...
Wow what an achievement it is .....
