Unusual request

Economic experts, people, idiot government people are debating everywhere about the increasing inflations rate which touched 7.14% yesterday which is as per economic experts is too much. I as a student never realized that any such thing is happening in society. I always call my father and demand whatever amount of money is required but surprisingly this month I demanded money thrice, And still seeking for more help from papa.

In morning I called up my Internet Service Provider (youtele com) because internet is not working in my area.

Me: sir, could you please tell me , what is the problem with you guys.

He: sir actually modem in your area is down, let me check the problem or we will send you one technician within 24 hours.

Now this technician thing is really funny, because YOUTELE has only one technician

In our area and unfortunately that guy look more like electrician than technician.

And also this guy is very funny, he even can’t tell you difference between LINUX and windows

Ok I know I am nerd computer engineer. But I think he must know these all things.

He: anything else sir?

Me: yes yaar, could you do me a favor please.

He: what sir?

Me: please if possible add this month bill in next month bill, because I am unable to pay this time.

He: are you sure sir, because we may disconnect services, and there is no rule from our side to take care of such requests, I am really sorry sir, I am unable to forward this request.

Me: do it yar, I am a customer of youtele since 3 years, and is it a way to deal with old customer. ( I used this line to give some impression.)

He: I know it sir, but I can’t change our policies for you, you may use online option, drop box option. What exactly is your problem, why are not you able to pay bill this time.

Me: hmm, reason is simple , I don’t have money this time.

On this , he sounds very confusing and said sorry and disconnected the phone.

Really inflation is on its peak, I never thought of getting money in 5 figures in month, but now a days I am getting it and still not able to make use of it in proper way. And that’s too when I stay at my home maximum time. May god bless poor souls who are still supporting these bunch of fools ( say UPA govt).
