Some surprises from these are ………..
Okay Tata – Quality : Many of us while traveling notice a peculiar writing at the back of the trucks, normally we recall – “Sound Horn Please” and If it is a Tata Truck, then obviously you will find the label “OK TATA”. Many of us might have observed this, but over the time we might have ignored this as it is common in most of the Tata Trucks. The author provides that anecdote on why these trucks have OK marked on these and the reason. Reflecting back this would bring the simile back on the face as it is just application of Common Sense for improving Quality of the Product.
On Time: Many of us might have experienced the delay in boarding the flights and had bad experience, how about reading an anecdote on people of Geneva setting their watches to the time at the air India flight flew over their city ! – amazing isn’t it ?
