zen Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Here we share some of our interesting stories, I will go first: An interesting day at CDG Remember the movie 'the terminal'. It had Tom Hanks playing the role of a person stranded at the airport. This character was based on a real person. Long time ago, I was at the CDG airport in Paris. There was a guy walking in the lobby wearing shabby clothes. He went to use one of the public telephones. There was something weird about him. I did not pay much attention. Later I saw him shouting at the top of his voice and throwing the phones out of the hooks one by one. He seemed frustrated and angry. I thought the guy will be picked up by security. To my surprise nothing happened. The officials at the airport didn't seem to mind it and acted as if nothing had happened. I thought for a second what type of security is this! When the terminal was announced. I realized that I had seen the person on whom the movie was based on that day at CDG. And then the things at the airport flashed in front of my eyes. I got the answer as to why the security overlooked what he did that day.

EnterTheVoid Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Happened to me ~ 1.5 week ago. Suvarnabhumi (Bangkok) International Airport to hotel = 400 Bhatt. Halfway through the journey, he purposefully switches off the meter. When he drops me off at the hotel, asks 650 Bhatt instead. >.

akshayxyz Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 there was some 'very' personal stuff in some of those posts so I am glad that the posts got deleted .... MTC probably initiated the deletion so let's not discuss it further unless ofc MTC wants to some portions of it Except for a bit or two, it was fine. Anyway, I am no one to judge, and full respect to his decision. Just that, it was very beautifully written and inspiring story worth sharing, and when you hear some experiences of someone from real life, it leaves even more impact. But yes perhaps internet is not the best place.
Nova Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 I am selling copies of the MTC story.... please PM me. :reddy:
punjabi_khota Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 I misssed the personal stuffz :hitler: MTC PM ME NOW :mad: He basically talked about his past life as a gangster in Mumbai, and how much he was pissed that Imran Hashmi is now chosen as the de-facto gangster in bollywood movies. Also explains how in his earlier days, he would go from shop to shop asking for hafta, which was exactly 2 cents at that time, hence his username.
ganeshran Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 MTC, your story was truly interesting :nice:
