The Day We Went to a Spa

Unforgettable adventure into the world of spas and surprises

Little Girl…

This is also a small incident that happened about twelve years ago…

At that time, I was working in a branch around Kandy… The tourism industry was the main industry in the area… I was the loan officer at that branch then…. In those days, a new loan scheme was introduced by the bank for small and medium scale industries… I went to Colombo for basic training and was given a target of 100,000 rupees… I was so happy…

There was a sales officer in our branch who was my age…

Bosa told us that the target was this much and handed over the work to us with the affection of his family… Since it was a new job for us too… Since we both liked the subject, we accepted the work… Even if we didn’t like it, we had to do it…

So we made a plan… Since the industry we were in was the tourism industry, we were ready to visit small hotels and tourist resorts and educate them… At the same time, Bosa suggested that we visit flower and wedding decoration establishments… We made a plan to go out for three hours a day… We arranged some work inside and got ready It happened…

First, we met the people who rented wedding decorations and set-ups, which Boss said, and informed them… Since they were giving loans, there were people who were interested anyway.

Boss is happy that we accepted Unnanse's order in the first place… Boss should accept any stupid suggestion when he says it. Don't complain about its shortcomings. Otherwise, the boss will think that we are lazy, not because of his stupidity…

But later, we should slowly correct Boss. I firmly believe that our people are getting screwed either because they put pressure on the boss to say ''Yes sir'' even for the impractical things he says, or because they don't correct that idiot after realizing that the company is getting screwed because of the boss's stupidity.

Okay, let's get to the story

Next, we went to hotels and resorts… At that time, people in that field didn't do business with us… So Boss's progress every day The reviews are positive…

In Sri Lanka, we have a Sri Lankan character, but when we say good things, the roof is covered with dung… It happened to both of us… We are now enjoying this job.. Business is coming… Boss is happy.. There is also a beautiful sister at the hotel reception… So we decided to continue to go to the rest even after the selected ones are finished..

So we went.. Some of them offer rooms for a small fee for a short time… I don't know why they charge by the hour… To some, we seemed like the only trouble we had….

Meanwhile, we went to a place called "Ahawal Hotel and Spa"... Those were the days when those spas were just starting out, we didn't have a big idea... We thought it was a service for foreigners... We went to the hotel reception and told the aunty there that we wanted to meet the manager... That woman just smiled like we were proposing marriage to her... "The manager is at the spa" she said with a grin and said as if she didn't know Sinhala..

We went to the spa, my friends... Mom and Dad had never even thought of going there before... We had no idea what a spa was at that time... We went there and asked the guy at the reception that we wanted to meet the manager.. He rang a bell there and showed us a sofa and asked us to sit there..

Here is a boy wearing a short dress (short In short, where were those sisters (like the bed when they were little)? Six girls came and sat in front of us… If we were standing, we would feel embarrassed.. excited… loved… scared… that's the situation in short…

We were both in complete confusion… We got up again and went to the receptionist and told her why we had come. Those girls listened to us with a chuckle..

They didn't give us credit there..

Then the massage

Are you crazy? Hello, you don't do that during your working hours….
