Wired Faculty App

The postmaster says to Ali, 'What a pest you are, brother!' Do you agree with the statement? Give reasons for your answer.

Solution

For several days he had not come to the post office and everyone was curious to know what had stopped him. But he came at last and again asked the postmaster if he had his daughter's letter or not. The postmaster was in hurry, got pissed off at him and called him a pest. I don't agree with the statement as he couldn't understand the pain of the old man and insulted him.
