Uncomfortable sunday

My mom is not feeling well today and hence I had to go get some vathal kulombu. I happen to go to a branch of the chain of restaurants belonging to the hotelier who is considered to be the kingmaker of the industry. Since the restaurant was situated near my home, I went to the place in my shorts. (Of course! Covered upto my knees). Alas! Since, the cooks had not returned from their diwali holidays, the parcel-in-charge guy was not ready to get me what I desired.
The dishwas being served to those only who buy a meals pack and no extra items were being served. I decided to go to the other branch of the same hotel which is very near by, located in the centre of the city. I got the same reply. I was shocked. I thought it was due to the Uppu Jowli rush in coimbatore. If you happen to be in Coimbatore, you would have known it. Its a unique traditional practice followed before a marriage where both the bridegroom and bride's relations, go for shopping. Hence the restaurants get flooded on such auspicious days.
I decided to go to the biggest branch of the same guy. I got a negative reply. I decided to switch over my brand now. There was one nearby. The parcel-in-charge of the hotel asked me to go to the previous place where I came from!!!!

Diwali vacations aren't over in Coimbatore. This Sunday noon passed away by mere travel through the city. It took me damn 30 minutes!!!!

In the intermediate. I went to a petrol bunk where the lady spilled fuel over me! She was in a row with her co-workers!!!!! I think this another idiot's way to waste liquid gold! You would be aware of what I did in the past or else go through this post.

The uncomfortable factor this sunday had was me going to the city in my shorts. People looked at me like an insect.

I am not sure whether I was horrible or my city is still being a conservative society who hate westernisation!!!!
