How do you know that you have become Mumbaiker?

Nice post copied from my friend Christian blog, and it’s the pure truth

The idea behind is that you certainly recognize that you adapt some habits and mindsets. If you live and work India and especially Mumbai this happens really fast, once you are over the culture shock you get used to certain things. If not you will leave the country soon.

So here is my list of how to recognize becoming a Mumbaiker

everything beyond 30km/h is speeding
0.1m² is lot of space in a train
you bargain everywhere
if you sneeze, don’t expect somebody to say “Gesundheit, bless you..” instead you say sorry
you start liking Kinfisher
there is no need to use a blinker/ indicator/ side mirror, just horn
you get new a perspective towards waste and pollution
you are shaking your head like an Indian
you start your sentence with “Hey Boss..”
you can squeeze your lips to call a waiter etc.
100 Rupies (2EUR) is expensive for one meal
you don’t consider guys holding hands and hugging as gay
you jump off the train while it is still running
you can recognise stations by the smell (e.g Bandra)
a fresh lime juice while waiting at the station is perfect thing to spoil time waiting for the train
you finally pay the prize for an auto,taxi shown on the meter without discussion
you have a bit of orientation in the city
