Why the nick?
Well Reliance Energy sends a notice to us on the the 17th (in the evening) saying that on the 18th, there would be no electricity for 7 hours, from 10 AM to 5 PM (for some maintenance or repair) , in the area where I work.
We call up the company to find out if 7 hours is with a very high buffer, or if electricity would go out in phases etc, but the office cannot answer and say they would call us back and let us know. We got no call for at least an hour (that was the time till which
We had no option but to call it a day off and substitute the 'holiday' by working on a Saturday.
How unprofessional is this?
And to top it off, the next day we find that there was electricity the WHOLE day.
I would have sued them. Big time.

You dont have to be in America to sue. I am pretty sure there are laws within the Indian constitution that should allow you to sue for lost productivity.
On a lighter note, suing is a two-edged sword .. a few years back, someone sued McDonalds because their coffee was too hot :)
Arre yaar over here the judicial system is too painful, time consuming and money eating too.
Haha the whole 'McDonalds got sued' stories are too funny. But I believe that coffee houses in the US started printing 'hot' on their cups after some company got sued cause the coffee was too hot or something (I have heard so don't know how true it is).
Deepali, you are right!
Now there is a warning saying
"Caution! Beverage is hot"!
