Westside

Whenever I watch Star One, there is an advertisement that really amuses me and I would like to share my thoughts with those who visit my blog

The ad is of Westside. I am sure all of you who love to shop (especially women) would have heard of Westside.

The ad begins with
A sweet looking girl browsing through clothes, looking quite sad. The sales assistant asks her if she needs any help. She says no thank you and moves on. The sales assistant decides to increase the volume of the music playing in the background to cheer her mood.

The beats start and so does her head movement. She has finally got into the mood and starts trying out different types of clothes. Each time she comes out of the trial room and dances with different styled clothes.

Finally all the sales staff start clapping. The girl turns around and sees the team watching her.

This is WESTSIDE ad.

My Comments
No customers at Westside, I presume. All the sales staff were watching the girl getting into the trial room, trying out an outfit and dancing.
OR
Perhaps they all decided to take a break at the same time for some live entertainment and make the Managers do the sales work for a change.
OR
Westside has way too many staff and hence there are about 10-15 of them who have ample amount of time to watch their customers every move.

My Suggestion
Please visit Westside and let me know if this is still happening (post the ad).

Thought for the Week

If God answers your prayers
He is increasing your faith

If he delays,
He is increasing your patience

If He does not answer
He knows you can handle it.

Statue's Head Cut OFF???????

On Thursdy 30th November, I reached till my office building very peacefully. When I was waiting for the lift, I came to know that there would be some trouble, as the previous night someone had cut the head of Dr.Ambedkar's statue.

Right enough, when we reached office, we came to know that there was a bandh at Thane and police had to start using tear guns in certain regions and places in Mumbai.

If Dr. Ambedkar was alive, would he have liked his people to use rioutous means or peaceful means to solve a problem? Why does one cut the head of a statue in the 1st place? It is to create a problem. What did the Dalits do? They burnt trains, buses, took away lives? Were these people in anyway responsible for cutting the head off the statue? No, right? Then why did the public and the transport have to suffer?

Every year on Ambedkar Jayanti, the Dalits get free food at Shivaji Park, free travel by bus, train. Who gives them this freedom? Its only the Government

On Thursday these same people who get everything free for 3 full days, created a turmoil over a statue.

The Government should stop this yearly 3 day freedom. Make them pay for their trips, for their food and in this way recover the losses incurred.

This is my opinion. If you feel the same, kindly add your comment.

World AIDs Day


December 1st was celebrated as World AIDs Day.

How many are aware that India is the 2nd largest carrier of AIDs in the World?
What are we doing to stop the country from becoming No 1?

Honestly! Nothing.

On December 1st, at Churchgate station, there were exhibitions and speeches held by WHO. This is all I saw done on my trip back and forth to office. But these people standing by were obviously not going to pay heed to a one day message.

We need to start having sex education right from the 9th standard in all schools including the Municipal schools. There needs to be continous sex education awareness programmes on the DD channels, as these are the most watched channels all over India. Programmes on AIR and FM on sex education as radio has the largest outreach.

The Programmes have not to be boring where as soon as the person is aware there is a sex education awareness, he/she changes the channel.

Most importantly we need to educate the sex workers and the eunuchs, so that when a male customer comes to them, they can have safe sex.

Condoms need to be made available freely. With the increase in all commodities and groceries, the common man is not going to pay for condoms. This leads to a rise in AIDs.

We at Sunday Joy Club have taken the topic on relatioships for Std VIII. We are dealing with all sorts of relationships and the biggest topic of the year we have to cover is LUST. This will be done in detail by the Director of SJC, Fr. Nigel.
We find that young girls in high school are getting pregnant and Fr. has taken it upon him that we should start giving sex education at our religion classes.

SAY NO TO AIDS. It will take away your life and the one you have sex with.
