The Story of Howevers and Butts

This was when I used to work with vCustomer.As a part of our training program , we had to go through a months Voice n Accent training.We were a bunch of naughty people there.Chanpreet , Mandeep , Two Amits - Thapliyaal and Khurana and yours truly.

Now there was one stunning V n A trainer we had that went by the name of **i**a **a**n !!
@ vCustomer gang - Count the number of stars n u'll know whom I am talking about !

Now she used to tell us that Americans neverrr (rolling R's) use the word "but".They prefer to use "however" !! We guys , although Indians but were forced to take up "Amreekee" speakng habits for a li'l over 22K.So we also tried and avoided the use of "But".

But their are two kinds of "buts" - One a normal grammar But and the second that was very frequently used by us as an appreciatory object , Butt !!

But saying Butt all the time was not liked by some.Also we had this habit of praising something on the face of it (not on the butt of it) . So we had to find a way to satiate our need to praise this V n A trainer's "you know what" infront of her and also not to displease her( One of our gang was planning to marry her !! She had had three flings already).

So Amit Thapliyal it was who came up with an excellent idea.Instead of Butt we would use However ! Lord praise Abraham Lincoln and the Texan Accent !!!

So there we went , saying "Nice **pause** However" . And the V n A would look at us enquiringly because she expected more to come after However !! But there was nothing more to come because we had found a way to appreciate what we wanted to without hurting anyone's feelings except one

## Sorry Dushyant , I had to publish this . Couldnt resist myself !! ##

But nobody can match Charles Shobraaj's wit at escaping things and we could not escape her attention that she had started to give to our unfinished However sentences !! But the sporting lady she was , she would utter a thanx everytime a However followed a Nice !! Wish Dushyant had the guts to ask her out !!

Then after a year I met her at the screening of Munich the other day.And the first thing that came out of my mouth was "Nice **pause** However" and she said thanx....................
