A stitch in a time !


See an ad of a tailoring centre. We(myself and my wife) were definitely interested in quality stitching, ok with good designing and most inviting part was “xpress delivery, within 24/48 hrs” , which was a myth, to once again confirm that we had to wait for 10 days. In a way we realized this after 10 days. We stepped in after 10 days (after no response of repeated calling) and found the cloth piece in tact. I am sure most have gone through this phenomenon. I have not met anybody who have seen anyone who have received any dress on time from tailoring shop
Now what’s the use of quality stitching,good design and all if one can not deliver on time? We are on the look out for another “quality tailor”, any suggestions?

Life in an Advertising agency, part-1
They say Advertising is the only industry where one can have fun with pants on. Now the level of fun depends on the client handled. In spite of deadlines and client screaming, ad agencies can be fun place. What started as a de-brief session ended up like a collage of caricature featuring the entire members of the agency (thanks to economic recession, not many left in the agency). Everybody (including me) contributed. The topics varied from one’s obsession towards earrings of unimaginable shapes, scale and sizes, recent honeymoon trip made by a member, about low waist jean one wears, one person’s highly imaginative story of a snake that can swallow a donkey (he still believes and often tries to convince others that there is a snake like that). Now activities like these makes an ad agency a place where one can have real fun (yeah, pants are still on).
