Manners

I was at the Honda workshop getting some accessories for my bike.
It should be evening time in the month of august, it wasn't raining but sunny inspite of rainy season.
I was waiting outside the service area where all the bikes were parked and the technicians were busy inside working on the bikes.

People were coming and going collecting the repaired bikes n scooters.After a few minutes one family came, two almost adult boys and their parents.It seems they had given white activa for repairs which was almost 6 months old.
Now white car vehicles need to cared a lot for damages due to stains.Even the slightest scratch looks like a huge border on the pure white surface.

So the boy among the family was claiming that the bike had been sctrached and blamed the workshop for mishandling the bike. After a debated discussion the boy took the bike and went away. 
While this was happening I wondered whose fault was it ?

When you give your car/bike in repairs you cannot expect they will care for your vehicle like you do.
So you just have to rest on blind faith/hope that your bike comes out totally fixed without any physical damages.

Make sure you take good care of your vehicle paint.For repairs sent your vehicle only to the reputed/trusted workshops.
Same applies when repairing your cellphones,laptops and other similar gadgets.
We cant expect others to care for our stuff in our absence.
But the best we can do is apply preventative measures for our stuff.For instance we password protect our computers so no one can access it besides you.

We encounter similar cases in our lives.For instance, when you send your kid to school it is your duty as a parent to make sure he behaves good outside.You have to mould him, teach him good manners.The teacher cant pay attention to hundreds on student at a time,considering the nature of each individual kid is different.
Make sure your kid reads good books, does some creative work and does not become a problem child.
