Earning petrorupees!

It is not about investment in Oil and Gas business. This is about earning by an apprentice at a petrol bunk. Normally, at petrol bunks, the Oil companies have displayed a board that they provide free air.In reality, it is not so. May be, because of "generosity" on the part of the petrol bunk users they dole out Rs.2 for two-wheelers Or Rs.5 for four wheelers. There are some niggard users , who just pay Re.1/- be it two wheelers or four wheelers.

Anyway, in a day, a petrol bunk attracts not less than 1000 users (approx). Now the apprentice who fills up air would definitely pocket Rs.4000 per day. Even if the entire collection is shared with four or five other apprentices of the bunk his share would be not less than Rs. 800 per day. Cool man! this amount is 100% more than a salary earned by a teacher working in a middle level matriculation school.

In some petrol bunks, 50% of the collection should be handed over to the bunk management. Even then I consider this venture is a lucrative one.

God: the employment provider

Today is ganesh chaturthi. our area market is abuzz with ganesh idols made out of clay. The flower vendors are doing a brisk business . The grocery shop is jam-packed. The employees at the shop have no time to rest. The entire atmosphere is filled with joy. The children accompanying their parents pestering them to buy colorful umbrella ,which is supposed to be adorned the backdrop of ganesha idol.

The festival on the one side, creates expenditure. It also provides employment on the other.
