It was high time i got my car serviced.... Poor thing had not been for servicing past 8-9 months in which there was a trip from Delhi - Agra - Auriya and back..
Finally to my relief a new car service centre CarNation opened up near my office with a pick and drop facility...
To make sure they had a good workshop i went a day before to their service place in Noida sector -63 I guess...The office was good and the workshop behind that looked neat..
There were not many cars considering it was sunday..i asked them to pick my car monday morning and deliver it same day.I gave my name, number etc and took off..
Monday they did not contact..tues i contacted them to pick up..they couldn't, saying they did not have their driver free..
Finally they sent a guy to pick my car on wednesday..Cool i thought..Gave details of things to be done..
1. Normal servicing with engine oil change (forgot to get coolant checked)
2. engine tuning (my car was roaring like mad dog) etc..
In after noon they called up several times, that some engine casket had rotten, vipers not good some rings near engine need to be changes , i agreed to all that asking the price..
Then another call came saying that the headlight are not working and they need to change bulb..That started annoying me and started my suspicion about their level of honesty..Because my headlights were perfectly all right day before..and they were suggesting me to change all bulbs.. I reluctantly said yes thinking okay that will improve the dimness of headlights..
Finally i got my car delivered..The engine sound was same as before servicing..I had my doubts whether did any of engine tuning..
Then i found my autolock was not working..3 doors would not open up...i was really frustrated ..then when i went home gave the car to my brother and as he ws going i saw left tail light was not working..
I could just give a wild guess what the fucking thing they did to my car's electrical cabling..
Even a small garage has good mechanics who love to get the car going.. You need not tell them, coolant,engine oil and engine tuning needs a look..they do it even if u forget..
They make sure the car runs smoothly..
But these carnation people i dont think they have employed good mechanis who love cars and who have proper training or knowledge or maybe experience in dealing with a good car service..Their nation lacks the zeal for its citizens..they are here just to do step by step things from manual, not trying to do anything beyond that..they want to charge you for every extra thing..get parts changed unnecessarily..in short THEY SUCK AS A NATION FOR CARS..Do think twice before handing them you beloved...

IT Bubble
This is nothing to cheer about, but just to show how the problem of any hierarchical system affects the people at the bottom of the chain.
Once upon a time the government with Ruling Party XYZ.. had a vast scrap yard in the middle of a desert.
Ruling Party XYZ Said..
- "Someone may steal from it at night."
So they created a night watchman position and hired a person for the job.
Then Ruling Party XYZ Said..
- "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?"
So they created a planning department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person to do time studies.
Then Ruling Party XYZ Said..,
- "How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks correctly?"
So they created a Quality Control department and hired two people. One to do the studies and one to write the reports.
Then Ruling Party XYZ Said.. ,
- "How are these people going to get paid?"
So they created the following positions, a time keeper, and a payroll officer, then hired two people.
Then Ruling Party XYZ Said..,
- "Who will be accountable for all of these people?"
So they created an administrative section and hired three people, an Administrative Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.
Then Ruling Party XYZ Said..,
- "We have had this command in operation for one year and we are $18,000 over budget, we must cutback overall cost."
So they lay off the night watchman.
Moral of the story:
"Current Situation In IT industries"
