Part of the long line of customers waiting inside HSBC

Went on a drive to HSBC Sri Lanka, which is located somewhere near Bambalapitiya. Getting parking was a problem, as the parking lot was full, so I had to wait on the street for a while. When I finally got in they had a line of people to the counter.

As far as I saw, most of the staff were milling around, instead of assisting the customers who were trying to make payments. If I were them, I’d focus on getting the lines moving, without wasting customers time. (Also, I’d do something about the parking problems..)

Oh, in the meantime, here are some photographs I snapped while getting there…

Waiting for parking inside, this attractive Sri Lankan lady turned up… walking at quite a pace.

This guy couldn’t read the No Parking sign on the floor, or signboard.
Either that or he was simply trying to find a way to park.

The security guard started gesticulating desperately and telling him to move..
