The norm changer...

Dear Skoda ,

“We will not get any holiday during this rain as our teacher will not be absent any more”…. Skoda announces free rain servicing….

This jingle on the radio confused me with a trail of thoughts following it.

 After putting in so many years in a corporate, Skoda does not seem so affordable to many.

Then I wondered whether with the free service, affordability was the subtle message that they were driving home.

No !

As kids our teachers travelled very modestly .This must be a child from an International school (I thought), as normal school teacher’s salaries donot provide for such luxuries.

As I was transported back to my own childhood,I realized….

A few years back... an Engineer would marry an Engineer or a doctor , a Doctor another Doctor ,a graduate a graduate. Leading to each family having a certain lifestyle .Higher middle class, middle class, lower middle class so on and so forth .

Courtesy  - Arranged marriages …..

Then enters, the Norm changer,    LOVE…..

An emotion which knows no class , no degrees, no caste n creed…….

A secretary falling  for a boss.

A banker falling for a current account holder  entrepreneur.

A teacher falling for a doctor and the list goes on ………

This lead to boundless possibilities A modest banker goes on exotic International   vacations , a secretary flying on  the privileged  class, a teacher arriving to school in her SKODA……

Result.

Class demarcations   has now become redundant…..

So “Love” has set in endless possibilities and hence the child from a normal school too can carry on complaining to SKODA..

Three cheers to the norm changer
