Life Footprints – 80

VIP or a criminal…………………

During my first visit to USA, I stayed with Ashish near NY
before leaving for Houston.

For 3pm flight Ashish ordered lunch accordingly. Delivery

somehow got delayed. Reached airport late; aerobridge was
retracted and plane ready for pushback. I forcibly told that

being US government invitee, need to reach Houston urgently.
Normally in USA, people refrain insisting like this.

Afro-American lady on duty asked about check-in luggage, I
promptly said, “Yes, two”. She resigned on floor pressing his
head. She then spoke to some senior and I was accommodated.

Seeing my special boarding, passengers might perceive me a

VIP or criminal.
