Of course sir, with pleasure

Scene 1:
One fine evening, I was traveling from Chennai to Mumbai by Jet Airways 8pm flight. The food served was good. For some reason, I didn't had my lunch and felt that the food was not sufficient. I stopped a passing by steward.
I: Excuse me! The food was delicious.
Steward: Thank you Sir.
Me: May I have one more Biryani.
Steward: Of course sir, with pleasure.
Scene 2:
I went to a restaurant with one of my friend. I browsed the menu but didn't feel like eating any of the items. I told my friend that I want to eat Biryani.
He replied-it's not in the menu.
I: Shouldn't we ask the waiter?
He: It's not in the menu, which means they don't serve.
I ignored his response and called the waiter.
I: Can I have one veg. Biryani.
He: Of course sir, with pleasure.

My friend was in a mood to argue with the waiter that they've committed a crime by serving an item unlisted in Menu; I had to persuade him not to do so.

Scene 3:
I was traveling out of country for a long term project. I had some issues with my State Bank netbanking and I needed a fresh login/password. I requested one of my friends to visit the branch with my passbook and enquire about the procedure.
My friend: Do you think that they will tell me anything?
I: Why not, you are represting me, their esteemed NRI customer. And you are carrying my passbook too.
My friend: Talk logical, customer information is confidential.
I: Of course it is. But you are not going to ask my balance, just a procedure for how to get a netbanking kit.
My dear friend reluctantly visited the branch. Waited for 5 min (yes sir, only 5 min. in State Bank of India, SPB, Branch Bangalore).
My friend: One of my friends wants netbanking access to his SBI account. Will you please tell me the procedure?
The Relationship Manager: Of course sir, with pleasure.

The bottom-line is - there are many things in this world which happen, you just have to ask for it. Don't hesistate.

International Language

Have you ever thought why do so many languages exist in the world? Because they were developed at different locations independently and there was no communication between those places. Now the world is getting united. Do you still think that Hindi unites India? Well, in number it may outweigh any other language. But India survives on English and hence the most of the world. Even Chinese are learning English now. Why should we carry something just because it was inherited for long? Why not be practical in making English as national language and mandatory subject, medium of instruction in all the schools, when we practically use English everywhere.

Other languages! let them be part of optional languages, literature, movies, plays (of course, some of the languages will then extinct naturally).
