Mail dated August 7, 2007

I had to resend the last email before I finally got a reply. This reply easily will go down in history as the most terrible email ever written!! This actually comes from a Branch Manager of Kotak Mahindra Bank, someone who would go with the Designation of "Assistant Vice President". There is no prefix to my name, a vague reference to a date until when I "may have to wait" and just that what I will get at the end is "communication". C'mon now, that doesn't happen at this level at one of India's foremost private banks, does it? Guess again...

The signature of this Branch Manager makes exceptional reading... it obviously has to be original.. where else can you see one grammatical and one spelling error together; but what strikes you the most is the fact that this guy takes pride in quantifying the amount of hours he spends in the office.
