7:30 Sharp

The two minute noodle take 10 minutes time .The instant coffee takes too many instants and the 30 min pizza hardly arrives in 60 min .And apparently time is money .I can only wonder what our economy would be if we learnt to be on time
Being "ontime" is a buzz word in media and corporate world which i used to encounter on daily basis .Againi i wonder if the guys compling dictionery should reconsider the meaning of this word
I was invited to a friend's wedding recently .The invitation requires my gracious presence 7:30 Pm sharp .so not to scare any body .i decided to go for a haircut and promptly reached the saloon by 6:30.The stylist was efficient i was done and ready by 7 pm.As i left the saloon , i noticed some one i knew getting an elaborate facial done Guess who?The bride ,Her presence at the reception hall was not to be felt until 9 pm
It's simply how we manage to be late with such consistency .It's an art we mastered and are transferring to the future generations
Being five minute is not a crime but consider this .we 're a billion indians .if each of us is late by just 5 minutes ,we are late as a country by 5 billion minutes ,I'll spare you the math but that's roughly 9512 years .Just imagine all we could do in so much time .
