Overheard in a household in India #8 - Call your aunt from your office

A father is talking to her daughter about her first job.

Daughter (happily): Pitaji, mujhe naukri mil gai hai. (Daddy, I have got a job.)

Father: Achchha, mubarak ho beta. Kahan job lagi. (Congratulations my child. Which company is that?)

Daughter: Call center mein. (It's a call center.)

Father: Call center. Vo kya hota hai. (And what's that?)

Daughter: Pitaji call center mein duniya bhar se phone aate hain; America, Australia, England aur yahan tak kee Germany bhi. Hamen bas un calls ka jawab dena hota hai. (Daddy, people from all over the world - America, Australia, England and even Germany) - take the help of a call center to solve their issues. We just need to attend the calls and give them a satisfactory reply.)

Father: Achchha. Chal fir apni Rammo bua ko bhi ek-do phone kar dena zara. Vo bhi aajkal America gai hui hai na, Raghav se milne. (I see. Then make sure you call your Rammo aunt who is currently on a visit to America to meet her son Raghav.)
