Singles are officially dead!

Many post that will subsequently follow in this blog were written(" blurted out" would be more appropriate) long time back when I was a regular at MySpace an amazing networking site n personal space manager.

This blog was one of my early writings in myspace, however it still holds true to this day...

Date: A Long Time Ago.....
The other day I went to Esplanade to apply for one of the many licenses required to do business, they handed me 40-something pages of form to be filled up... but that part I'm not going to touch now( its for another day). What surprised me the most was when they told me that I would have to write my residence add in the space provided for "Company/Office Add" in the form and license would be delivered to that add only!. They said that as i was the entrepreneur, so the license will be delivered to me at my residence add. They also said that they dont have a "pick-up-from-counter" facility.I reasoned with them saying that as I'm most of the time in the office it would be better if the license could be sent at the office add. The officer then gave me the "mother of all reasons" after which I had nothing more to say. The officer said that for Entrepreneur's firm , its the rule that documents should fall in the hands of the entrepreneur and so the residence add!Now I dont know what the person "who framed such rule" was thinking.. did that person think that Entrepreneurs stay more at home than in their offiecs or if he/she is not there at home, his/her family will recieve the documents delivered by courier service They also said that if I miss the delivery, it would cost me a lot to get the document back. So what do I do....a single in the city? Well the ovbious..leave all business activities and stay put at home! i was sort of under house arrest for a week when finally the "Postman"( no spuerman/spiderman/batman) in khaki rescued me by delivering the document.
Actually for singles its an everyday struggle with things like these which are just taken for granted in case of a family person. All delivery men want your holy presence and all business transactions want your approval. During the process of settling down, I had tough time juggling between setting up the business and setting up my life/flat. After one month of struggle I was this close to becoming omnipresent. So I salute all the singles in the city. You are no less than God!
