how to order a pasta....

So here goes... I decided to order dinner... however all the indian fod joints in hiranandani are pretty mundane and i was really bored of the indian cuisine taste... so i decided to look for a pasta.... something out of the ordinary....there's a new pizza joint here which i really like... they r v good and their breadsticks are to die for... a true gourmand's delight..... so i call up the number

a young voice in a sing song tome picks up and goes welcome to pa... may i offer u te --- pizza....
im like what!!!! no i want to order a pasta...
so this chappie say hello maam.... may i have your number please....
me yes it 292 ....... (like im going to give away my phone number on the net...basically i gave him my phone number...
and he's like can i have ur name ... i give him my name and then shocker of shcoker..... can i call you back!!!!!!!!!!!!which pizza place calls the customer back for their order.... i mean wat was that????? so im like sure... (i was too confused to respond in any othert way...)

i wait for 3 mins... no my phones not ringing yet.... so me being the extremely nice natured person that i am call them back...(or maybe i just dfont know when to give up...)

me... hi i would like to order your pasta.
waiter( wat do u call the guys who take your order over the phone?) yes maam,,...
me: would you like to take down my phone number now?
waiter..: yes maam.. just a second... abbe pen de na...
me ( grinning... im loving this experience...) ok... so my number is (my phn number)
waiter and your name maam???
me:
kshitija....
waiter: yes kshitija maam ( im like wow... this is cool... i thought only school teacjers were addressed in this manner...)


then believe it or not a second dude picks up the phone...( they were all just dying to speak to me on the phone u see...)

second waiter... thanks for holding kshitija maam....
me: thts ok... can i order a pasta?
2nd w: yes maam which one would you like?
me: id like a pasta primevera florentine....
2nd w: oh and what size would you like it in...

3rd w: ok maam
me: why do u guys call back the customer for the order...
3rd w: its v busy today maam...(sunday)
me : oh ok...(???????????? these people need to train their staff on how to speak to customers.... if it hadnt been my good sense of humour they would have lost out on my hard earned 250 rs...)

they calls done... im praying to god that the pasta does get delivered to me or ill have to go hungry... and te phone bell rings... i instinctively know its my fav pizza joint... i pick up

4th w: kshitija maam?

me: id like penne..
4th w: sorry maam we dont have that today...

anyways the pastas eaten and is happily being worked upon by my gastric juices.... but wasnt that the most hilarious experience of ordering a take away that you might have hear??????????????

3) why am i here? my mba entrance exam in a weeks time.... i cud not solve time speed distance problems yesterday... im gonna flunk miserably... god... help...... i need a miracle now... an act of god....



4) why do i feel sleepy at 11:30 every afternon? i should not.... this is not good.... all my exams are scheduled arnd that tym... i will flunk them all



5) oh god the functional analyst in my team is cmng in my direction... why god why..... why do we have to test the bloody thing for errors???? i hate my life....what am i doing



6) I wish i could run away from all of this... i want a break with just one thing to worry about instead of so many.....
