*I am the calendar*
Went to four shops for shopping today. When I returned home, there was shopping with me, four calendars and a diary. The special thing was that I did not ask for this calendar anywhere nor did she ask for a diary. These are those small shops which won't make big profits. Neither will we go shopping from these stores every week or month. Yet these little shoppers still get everyone free of charge calendar. Same thing when it comes to big national level stores, drop a calendar a year but collect money up to carrybags every time.
And when it comes to banks, the circumstances get worse. If you ask here, leave it without asking, even if you ask, the customer does not get a calendar. When Ramesh Babu never understood the price of a pinch of vermilion, then how will a common customer understand the value of a calendar. The real value of the calendar is revealed in the bank only. Even if a customer has millions of rupees deposited in his account, it is fun that he gets a calendar. Hey, is there any calendar, only few people who distribute to everyone for free. If distributed somewhere, it may be the fastest growing economy of the country in the world in the new year will fall on the face. Banks should go to loss once again.
The same banks can spend millions of millions on media sponsorship of cricket matches but it's fun to distribute calendars. While the calendar hanging on a home or office wall does not know how much sight goes through and becomes a medium of promotion of bank and its products for free. It seems that the lives of banks are stuck in these calendars. Just distributed this here and there the merger of banks started again. Maybe one or two will become private too. Perhaps the Finance Ministry had banned printing calendar diaries a few years ago, considering the growing loss of banks. However, the ban was also lifted last year due to profit. But perhaps the management of the banks still haven't realized that banks are now recovering from losses and making huge profits.
Banks remove circulars that circles, zones print calendars (wall, table top), diaries at their own level. Perhaps even printed but no one knows who we meet. Yes, these things have become rare for the general public, must be seen adorning the cabin of higher authorities. But what is the right of the common customer over this?
There was a time when customers used to get calendars from the counter. Even rural branches used to get hundred and two hundred calendars without asking. . Staff also used to get things like calendar, diary, purses, belt and rings. But that era has passed. Then banking was second, now banking is second. Now diary branches get counted calendar counted in the finger, that too with strict instruction that even by mistake do not get a single calendar or diary staff. Maybe from next time, thick and gold letters should also be printed in calendar and diary that ONLY FOR CUSTOMER. NOT FOR STAFF If it is seen in this way, the staff is not a customer of the bank.
Leave that, now the situation is that all customers themselves give their calendars in bank branches. Branches do not have bank calendars, they only work with these calendars. That was a time when banks used to give calendars to customers. The wheel of time turned and now the time has come that customers started distributing calendars to banks.
Till then I understood the matter but even after the strong profits I did not understand the indifference of banks. A small shopkeeper also distributes panchang to hundreds of unknown customers but the bank cannot give even a single page calendar to the customers who have been associated with them for ten years. Will a calendar shock the banks economy. Everyone knows that this has never happened before nor will happen in future. But there is something. And the thing is clear that the difference is not of profit but of thinking. Some pages and a calendar of just a few rupees can do that work which can not even advertise millions of crores.
Little fat minor shopkeepers
And the difference between big big banks is me
Somewhere Balkhata Ithlata
So I'm diving somewhere
Somewhere in the river heart
So there would have been indifferent somewhere
Somewhere connecting relationships
So somewhere would have broken hearts
Somewhere the sun is spreading light
So I am a tornado somewhere
Little fat minor shopkeepers
And the difference between big big banks is me
I am the calendar
I am the calendar
With the hope that the calendar will change, thinking will change...
Best wishes to all of you on the occasion of New Year
