Debraj: - Arrey, Sir told us that only 13 people will go from IBS Kolkata, but, I am seeing more people from our IBS Kolkata here.
Sumanta: - Oh! We have not told you people. Agarwal, Kedia, Pandey, Chawla, Rathi and John also confirmed that they also want to attend the Ooty Conference.
Debarjun: - But, Sir has already booked our tickets. Where from they got their tickets?
Angshuman: - They booked their tickets through Tatkal reservation. All of them got the reserved seats except Agarwal and Pandey.
Debolina: - Students of Section –A of our IBS Kolkata are like that only. They are so lazy in taking any decision. They could have taken their decision 10 days ago, when Sir asked them.
Anupam: - Hey, don’t blame our Section – A students like that. We were skeptical about the internal exams. Luckily, all the internal exams have ended last week. That’s why; these people have taken the decision to go to Ooty. John is not from Section – A. He is from your Section – B only.
Deepti: - Hey, guys, stop this discussion now. The Coromandel Express is entering the platform. Sir is calling all of us. We should now board the train. Come on.
***************************************
Debojyoti: - Accha, let me tell you one thing. All of us have luckily got seats in S-8 coach. Only the IBS Bhubaneswar team got the seat in S-5 coach because their tickets I have not booked. Himangshu has booked their tickets from Bhubaneswar. Anyway, now board the train.
***************************************
Anupam: - Sir, when will we reach Chennai?
Debojyoti: - Arrey, babah…why are you so restless? We have only spent 1.5 hours in this train. The train has now reached Kharagpur station only. Chennai is very far from here. We will reach Chennai tomorrow at 5.45 PM. The train will stop in this Kharagpur platform for 10 minutes. Go down and refresh yourself by eating tea or cold drinks.
**************************************
Arindam: - This is the longest platform of India.
Kedia: - not only in India, I think that Kharagpur platform is the largest platform in the World. Nowhere, you will find such a long platform. Can you see the end point of this platform? You cannot see, as it is very long.
Agarwal: - Kharagpur is a far better place than Kolkata.
Debarjun: - dhaath…what are you saying?
Agarwal: - Seriously, yaar! I am not joking. One of my maternal uncle’s sons used to study in IIT Kharagpur. Later he became a junior faculty of R&D department in IIT Kharagpur only. After marriage, he has settled down in Kharagpur only. As per his opinion, Kharagpur town is a very peaceful town and it is also a cosmopolitan town. There is hardly any problem for any person coming from West Bengal to settle down in Kharagpur town.
Anupam: - The train has already given a horn. The signal is green now. Come on; let us go inside the train now.
**************************************
Debraj: - Ei Sumanta daa, have you brought that thing?
Sumanta: - What thing?
Debraj: - Arrey, how can you forget that? Ooty is a hill station. It has a chilly weather. You told me that you will bring two small nips of ‘Royal Stag’.
Sumanta: - Paagol naaki…Have I gone crazy? I just jokingly said that I will bring two small bottles of whisky. Debraj, you are a student of ICFAI, but both me and Angshuman are permanent employees of ICFAI. We have to take care of our job first. In Ooty, we will surely get a bar to drink whisky. Don’t worry.
Vartika: - Chee…Debraj…you have become a drunkard nowadays.
Arindam: - Ha ha ha…you cannot blame Debraj for that. Actually, ICFAI has motivated us to become drunkards. If you display your IBS Kolkata ID card in the Opium Bar of Sector-V, then you will get 10% discount on any hard drinks. I repeat. The discount is only on hard drinks, not on any soft drinks or any food item.
Sumanta: - Arrey, is it so, Debraj? You have never told me. That’s why; you always meet your clients inside the Opium bar.
Debraj: - Yeah, you are right, Sumanta daa. You should always do the marketing inside a bar while drinking with your client. The client also understands about your selling product very easily while drinking hard drinks and ultimately he decides to buy that product.
Angshuman: - Hmm…ok…after coming back from this Ooty tour, we will sit together inside the Opium bar.
Debojyoti: - Ei, you people are having a gala time inside the coach. I can hear the voice of you people from that end of this coach. So, what you people are discussing about?
Anupam:- Sir, just now, Debraj was saying that if you want to sell any product then you must give free whisky pegs to your customer as an initial treat.
Debojyoti: - Ha ha ha…Debraj, now I understand how you have become a Diamond Achiever in this quarter. See, every marketing person has their own unique idea of selling products. There is no harm in it, but, you should not compromise with the ethical values of marketing. Whatever product you sell, that product should satisfy the customer; otherwise, your marketing career can end at anytime. Marketing is a game of wanting the needs and needing the wants.
Deepti: - Please Sir! We are on a tour. Please don’t start the topic of marketing here inside this train also. We will learn about marketing inside the SAP office only.
Debojyoti: - Ha ha ha…ok, ok…Ei, Angshuman, the train is about to enter Bhubaneswar. Himangshu and Deepak will board from there. Please ensure that they don’t fall in any kind of trouble while boarding the train.
