> At one moment during the wedding, I came before the recording camera man. The camera man, literally touched my back (more like a pat). Immediately I got to know it was for me coming in between his shot. Moreover I saw his dirty expression. My temper rose almost 100 times, (coz I hate to be at the receiving end of such gimmicks amidst public). I could feel my hands waiting to beat the living hell out of someone(cameraman). But somehow I controlled myself from doing that, since I did not want to create a ruckus amidst dancing and partying people. I swallowed it partially, when the photographer apologized by saying " Sorry " for 5 times. But I did not accept his apology. I did not say anything to him, nor did I look into his eye. I just nodded my head and went away.
> At one more time, @ Hotel RamDev in Belgaum, I was filling water into my 2 litre mineral water bottle, using the jug / jar placed on the table, the waiter came and told " fill water from the tap over there " (in hindi), in kind of rude voice. This time, I did not notice it, but when I came out of the hotel, my brother reminded me that it was a kind of insult, how come ur silent.
My temper shot again this time to about 500 times, and I did not want to control it. I went back into the hotel, called the manager, pointed towards the waiter, called him and scolded him nicely till my temper came down. I was about to show my middle finger, but I felt it was kinda too much. So scolded the waiter till I got a soothing relief and came out, happily. I wanted to write a feedback form. But I preferred to give it back on the spot this time, coz I know where the feedback forms land up, ie in the nearest dustbins.
And the hotel was Ramdev, it seems to be a good hotel @ the entrance of Belgaum after some medical college. The food was kinda good, but the attitude of the waiter who served me lunch was pathetic. He deserves to be fired I feel. After shouting at him this is what I could have done least to vent out my anger against him.
Disclaimer:: This incident has happened in real on 17 May 2008. The hotel in picture and the location are all true. Nothing is fictious over here. This is the same hotel which comes up in teh 1972 movie Bombay to Goa. ( I feel)
And yes, I may be dumb(silent) at that very moment, but I do strike back with a lot of venom..

Sometimes you don't know how to react when someone misbehaves with you, whether you get back hard on them or just ignore and continue..
The problem with the later is if you ignore it, they will do the same with someone else..
If you leave as it is, you may feel burning feeling inside you, I got this feeling when I was reminded, Since it was Belgaum, I did not want to carry that fire to Bangalore> I wanted to douse it off.
Even before shouting @ the waiter, I thought 10 times , then I went inside and then shouted. It was not instantaneous, but quite thought about. Still I had the burning feeling, so that I put it on a blog, so that, a search can definitely redirect to this page, and people come to knw about how pathetic the waiter service was, over there..
Regarding the camera person, Well, I ve no regrets, coz, I came in his way and moreover he said sorry literally 5 times.
