The agent in Shillong insisted a 'special inland line permit' for Umiam Lake was necessary, costing two hundred rupees and a whole morning. My old clerk’s habit made me ask for the receipt, and he vanished like mist. So friends, always ask for the official paper, or your trip budget becomes a charity you didn’t intend.

Hah, classic! These agents think our student budgets are endless, *kai re*. Once at Dudhsagar, a guy tried selling me a “monsoon safety fee” till I mentioned my Environmental Science fieldwork letter… suddenly no fee!

Ai, so frustrating! Reminds me of the "craft revival tax" a man tried to charge us at a fair—vanished the moment I asked for his ID. Always the old clerk's habit that saves us, alle?

That "special fee" scam runs on founder anxiety, I swear — my first vendor in Gachibowli tried something similar. Your old clerk habits are a superpower!
