My Experience @ Trident Hyundai Service Station

by yagyaraman

Our Hyundai Santro got hit when taking it out of a Kuzhi into which the wheel went when I braked to avoid hitting another car. From the front wheels some sound was coming when vehicle was moving. Went to Hyundai Service station near Office to drop the Car. What I saw there was amazing.

I was roaming around the Service station when I had to wait for the service incharge to come in rather than waiting in the reception. At that time people who are working in the Service Station had come. They all assembled in the centre of the service centre. Formed two lines and one person who was in the centre (Leader???) spoke something and after that they all stood in Attention and immediately started singing the National Anthem. I was taken by surprise especially when Hyundai is not an Indian company. Nobody even moved a little till the National Anthem was completed (I also stood without moving).

After that immediately they spread themselves out and stood two each in a row with enough distance. The Leader now said, Jump and they all Jumped for close t o 10 times. Then he said “Neck Rotation” and from 1 – 8 normal and again from 8 – 1 anti clockwise Neck rotation. After that Arm Rotation followed and then sit ups.

I then thought, they all are doing so much of physical activity all through the day and they begin with National Anthem and Warm up for their body. I also learnt somewhere in the Net that they take regular break and do some warm ups when it is too tiring.

I then asked myself, they all are beginning their day of work on a very very positive note. But how are I (or rather we) start our day. I used to start with by unlocking my computer and immediately keeping my head phones, hearing song that I stopped last evening (not even sure if that was a positive or SAD song). I then remembered the comment my relative gave when he saw a company bus full of people on the seat sleeping. He immediately said “How do they go to office directly and work just coming out of sleep few minutes early?”. Absolute true right.

From now on, let me atleast be excited about the beginning of the day and read couple of positive sentences before I start till I find my routine similar to the Service station guys. Thanks guys!!!

    thats true.. I heard from my mom that in olden days after the film they used to play national anthem in theatres.. to avoid standing for our national anthem that too just for two min many used to leave the cinema hall before the film gets over.. thats the respect they give to national anthem. so many leaders gave their life for our country but we dont even spend two min for giving respect to our country.
