Strange situation

Today is friendship day. Every year friendship day is celebrated on first Sunday of August month. Yesterday I got one order from a customer (male) who wanted to send flowers for his girlfriend in chennai.He did not give his real name on card (I did not knew this) and gave his telephone number (instead of recipient's number).

The order was processed. On delivery date, the sender realised that the phone number he has given will be seen / disclosed to recipient. And this is surely to happen. Because the florist will enter all details on delivery challan (recipient's name, address, telephone number, any landmark). And recipient is required to sign in the challan. It is highly unlikely that they will not read it carefully.

The sender started calling me and requesting me that the telephone number should not be disclosed and it will be a big trouble for him.

I have seen this happening many times in my long career.

The delivery man had already left and I was helpless.

What happened later, I shall write in my next post.
