Before beginning with the post I would to like to mention
that here the work is “SALES” so when I say work without a car… It means
something genuinely uncomfortable!
I guess, I’ll start with how I m struck in this situation… well….
It all happened on a very pleasant day… the day I love the most ‘FRIDAY’… A Friday afternoon.
As usual, I was driving my car… going for a meeting…. happily
singing a song…. On a crowd less road… where I met an accident... It wasn’t just
any simple hit it was kinda major…. A bikewala hit my car badly without seeing
the indicator due to which he got injured and I ended up losing one door of my
car and the other door was damaged…
Anyways, my primary concern was that guy who was bleeding… As that was not the point to argue on whose
fault it was… I took him to the hospital and dropped him back…. After that my
concern was my car… It was a major loss so I decided to call up insurance guy
to guide me how to go about it… He told me a long process which I decided to
follow…
My Saturday went in searching for a workshop where I can give
my car and get it repaired at earliest… as well as in fewer outflows of cash…. Finally,
my search ended on a workshop in Vasant Kunj where I decided to give my car and
the workshop guy ensured me its return in 4 days i.e., by Thursday most
probably…
Phewww! Long story it was… Anyways, now I was bothered about
my work… Being in sales it’s very difficult to go without a car… Sunday I was
mostly sleeping and doing tp… By the end of the day I convinced myself that “It’s gonna be an adventure to be without a
car… I’ll explore the city in public transport once again after 2 years… yayy!”
:P
Though from inside I was saying “it won’t be that bad... after all people do live without a car”….
Ah… Started Monday… I luckily got lift till office with a
colleague of mine who stays in South Delhi… Then comes the meetings part…. I
was lucky as I had just one meeting today… that too I managed in metro…
After years, I travelled in Metro…. It was not really a bad
experience… Honestly speaking… sometimes it’s required to come out of your comfort
zone and work like mostly people do… Well, yes, I lack patience and I hate
public transport but it’s all because I always had a choice to avoid it… today,
I had no choice so I used it… It wasn’t actually my wish though… :P
I spent around 4 hrs in just one meeting due to this public
transport thing… I am sure with car it’s just a matter of 2.5 hrs at max… Life
can’t be same every time…
But… God, seriously yaa… Thank You so much for being there
for me… Good and bad days do come but it’s all required at times… It only makes
us versatile and strong…. And I am happy, Really… So don’t worry.. ;-)
Just take care of my people…. Love you… Muaah! :-))
