kevinUsa Posted September 21 Report Posted September 21 To the Telugu community in Seattle I want to share my experience and why I feel some of you need to learn some basic manners. Living in the USA and owning a GC does not mean we own the place. We need to respect everyone around us especially elders. I had taken my 70-year-old parents to the temple for Krishna Janmashtami celebrations. After the aarti we went for Prasad. My parents waited patiently for others to finish before taking a seat. When they finally sat my mother got up for a moment to get a glass of water that was kept a little far. In that short time a Telugu lady (~30-35 year old) dragged my mother’s chair away and sat down. No asking, no talks just dragged out of no where. My mother almost fell but luckily I was vigilante. The lady did not even apologized , she just smiled like a devil and started eating. Out of respect for the temple and the festival we did not say anything and quietly left after my parents finished their food. I know she was Telugu because she started talking to her friends in that language and I can tell as I have lived in Hyderabad for a few years and can differentiate between South Indian languages. There were other things too which left a bad impression. In the Prasad line everyone will get their turn so please respect the queue instead of bringing your whole neighborhood in front. Even in parking there is a system. It is first come first serve. You do not get a spot just because your friend is already parked there. I have lived in Hyderabad and have many Telugu friends and colleagues. I never felt such behavior there. But here in Seattle I have started getting a very negative vibe from such experiences.Please learn some manners and etiquettes in public . Quote

They don't have a right to tell and can suggest them to move to Dallaspuram for gaining back the respect Quote

To be frank Telugollu chala better. Those gujju Punjabi Delhi northies are more arrogant. They start a sentence with you Southwest when they start a conversation. Telugode telugodiki enemy.

I used to be just like you until I reached a point where I realized my folks were not happy internally when they saw me adjusting here with culture things. Then the following onwards, I got my Bhaisa (my native place version of me) out. if they are 30-35 and not 21 year old letha MS pillakalu, I would have politicized and made such a mess there, lanjallu educhukunta 10 days lockdown lo savali.
