At the monthly meet. We asked everyone: What do people think we do at home?

Kolhapur teammate. Laptop all day.
Galli’s drunk walks by: “Is this some shady ‘2-number’ job?” (slang for illegal work)

Pune teammate. Two kids.
Village relatives: “Enough sitting at home. Think about your parents. Get a real office job.”

Frequent flier. Zoom + Delhi + Bengaluru.
Family: “They pay you to sit at home? and also sponsor your trips?”

Dad of two daughters. One of whom works with us.
Grinning: “Don’t leave this job. You’re home longer. Anti–paraya dhan.”

Senior teammate. Door shut till 10 pm.
Spouse: “You’re home but never home. Better go to office!”

Night-owl responder. 2 am calls.
Spouse: “Fine. I’ll ‘book a slot’ from the hall to the study.”

Now the truth.
Dnyaneshwar Nirmale. Up at 5. Walks in fields. Logs in 7:30.
Cricket at 6. Lights out at 10.

Rahul Ghule. 10k run with Alexa (the dog, not the device). Everyday.

Stress? Sometimes.
Freedom? Often.
Fun? Most of the days.

If you are ok with neighbors confused but your soul aligned, come sit with us.
Not in our office. In our purpose.
