Does an airline has a piece of paper on-board?

Dear Mausam,

Will you believe it if I say that AlItalia airline has no piece of paper on-board? This is exactly what I was told by one of the flight stewards. I obviously know it aint true but you know what i felt in flight, that i was ill-treated coz of the color of my skin! I was the only brown skinned amongst a sea of white people. The steward who was a completely bald white guy in his late 20's didnt probably liked the idea of serving a brown guy.Dont really know how true this was but thatz how it felt like, his expression even before i spoke anything were "dont talk to me!".I asked him," Can i get a piece of paper?",he said"we dont have any", i said "what??? you guys dont have a piece of paper???", he just shrugged it off and said "naah" and just walked away! He accepted everybody else's request for anything else,but a piece of paper was too much for him. Maybe the fellow wanted me to prepare for something like this, as what i understand is racial discrimination is still very prevelant in most of the white populated regions.Lets see what next is in store. Watch this space.

Regards,
Ajj Kaim
