Tomorrow definitely does not mean “tomorrow” (in India)

Tomorrow definitely does not mean “tomorrow” (in India)
There is a very important banking problem to resolve, and I am asking the branch manager of the branch that I opened my corporate bank account at to resolve the problem; since my company’s director is a friend of his, I can somehow ask the branch manager to do a few things for me (my company).  He seems to be a nice person and all, but even he doesn’t seem very rigid when he talks about time.  I met him last Saturday about the banking problem, but he needed more time, so he said that he was going to look into the problem the following Monday, which is today.  There is another banking problem that I need his assistance to resolve, and he also said that he was going to look into the problem today.  So, I just called him up this morning to see when he will be available today.  His answer was “No, I won’t be available today.”  Ok, I understand that he is a branch manager and he is a very busy man, but I have to adjust my mindset (a lot) to understand that tomorrow definitely does not mean “tomorrow” (in India) even when a branch manager of a major bank in India says it.  *** sigh ***  My goodness, …

My nerves are cracking …

See, the thing is that I already told my accountant that I was going to meet the branch manager today.  I won’t be doing that, so, now, this affects my credibility.  *** sigh ***

Tomorrow means the day after tomorrow or the following day.  Next week means two weeks from now.  How the heck does anyone manage to get things done here (in India)?  Ok, that’s a bit harsh thing to say, but I’m just not having a great day …
