Proud to be a part of Bangalorean culture

Salesman’s life is not always full of frustration as Management provides lot of opportunity to rejuvenate him but to recreate yourself; you need to fulfill certain conditions. Which I understood when I got an opportunity to be a part of so called bangalorean culture .
One fine morning my branch head called me and told me that the Reliance mutual fund was giving a party at century club as they want to give a presentation on their new product. Now I tell you why these people give parties because even they are given targets to assemble certain No of people and introduce about their products to them. So if they don’t through a party in a luxurious hotel, who would come to listen to their shit. In sales everything including party is driven my targets.
I was asked to invite at least 4 HNI clients and I was extremely happy as I got something to pass my time. I took my client’s list and thought that everyone would eager to come Well my whole presumption went wrong when none of my clients agreed to come and I was surprised why people can’t come even at free party . Finally I asked one of my staff whether he knew any HNI clients .By that time all the staff members had become my friends, not because of my nature but because of my condition. He gave me a contact No and asked me to call the client by giving his reference as expected the client accepted my invitation and told me that he would come along with his wife. In sales everything works on recommendation or references, whatever you do .Even to invite a person , you need to have some recommendation. Finally I was satisfied with 2 clients
We all assembled at 9’O clock at century club and no client had come yet from our branch. By the time I had called 4 times to my only dearest client to remind about the party. My branch head was staring at me and asking me mootly about my 4 clients .In sales even if you are able to achieve half of your target you become a hero . Suddenly two unknown face (A Couple ) appeared at the front door and I felt some vibe that those were my clients . I confirmed it by asking their name and they turned out my clients. I felt so existed and happy that I introduced them to my branch manager and reliance mutual fund’s people . First time I was able to draw the attention of my branch head. Everyone was appreciating me as it is not a simple deal to call the clients and I was able to do that . Reliance’s people gave a short presentation as they were aware of that no one was going to listen to their presentation . After a brief question-answer secession, Real party or true Banglorien culture started .
In Bangalore, everything is started with drinks. My branch head asked me that I should always be with my clients just like a waiter and i was quite ready for it because they made me proud .After some brief conversation , I asked from the male whether he would like to have something and he asked for the wine . I called the waiter and arranged for the same then I asked from the lady whether she would like to have something .She told me that she didn’t like wine and I was not surprised as in my so called Bharatpur city women generally avoid drinks ….so I thought I should ask for a glass of juice but again my whole presumption went wrong when the lady told me that if I could arrange for a Vodka. Wake up Deepak Wake up, you are in a metro city and that too in Bangalore .Well… drinks is followed by Non-Veg dish so if you are simple Bharatpuria kind of kid who doesn’t drink and a vegetarian , you don’t have any place here .
People wait for dance floor to be opened and once the dance floor is open then Kon Apna kon Paraya .Well I appreciate this kind of culture because people mingle with each other like there is no barrier and why their should be any barrier . But I who was from a tiny city , finding it abnormal . First time I was evidencing some real moves which I had seen only in movies or magazines. Who says metro culture is bad, I was just loving it and enjoying it. Well everything was over by 1’o clock and everyone started retuning to their home, With the help of their drivers
When I returned to my room, I felt some kind of changes in me . India is really becoming a developed country and today I became a part of its development
