ATM slips

Once I entered an ATM near my place, I found the entire floor full of the ATM slips. I desperately wanted to take a photo and post it, but thought we should not be taking photographs in ATMs.

Why people need to print the ATM slip? To me there are 2 reasonable situations:
1. You are on a foreign trip and need the advice for the conversion proof.
2. You doubt it might give you a wrong amount and deduct a higher amount from your account.

In both the situations, you need to take the advice home with you, but not throw it in the bin next to the ATM machine.

Please use the following options instead:
1. To my knowledge, if you update the proper mobile number, you will be getting an SMS to your mobile, immediately after you do the withdrawal. This will help you get rid of the 2nd situation.
2. There is an option in every ATM transaction which asks you, do you need a printed advice? Please select "NO". This will help you get rid of generation of the advice itself instead of throwing it in the bin.

Also, if someone gets your transaction advice, he will know the balance in your account. I do not think you would want someone to know that.

Alternate Vacation

What people do for a vacation?

Everybody has their own way of enjoying vacation. If we enjoy a trek once, then we enjoy lazy time at home the other time.

We also do some adventure sports etc. some other times for vacation. What if we are allowed to have a vacation of living some others' life?

How do a day spent as

A public transport bus conductor,
A public transport bus driver,
A ticket counter person,
A traffic controller in a busy junction,
A hospital nurse,
A receptionist,
Any job that we take for granted

make us feel?


They will help us understand how tough these jobs are. How responsible these people are.

This will help us understand how tough are many things that we take for granted.
These vacations might change your perspective of life and how we see our surroundings ...
