Giving away 5 pairs of heels, Dune /French Connection/Jones. Size UK 39 (India 7/8).

Rarely worn, tiny scuff but look good! Perfect for night outs, dates etc.

The pink ones are suede flea market ones, no branding but I LOVED them and you will too. Tiny scuff.
Happy to dunzo them to you, Bangalore only.

They're not worth your time or money shipping elsewhere.

Please tag folks who might like these? @Meg_Srinivas?
Black FC gone. Others remain.

For the last few days Kabir has been telling us the story of the leaking Antarctic Pipe

Its a riveting and gripping story, involving the Octonaughts, his nanny, his playmates from the sandpits, our Baleno car and a polar bear.
In short the pipe above the Antarctic has stopped working.

Its blocked. The plumber can't fix it.

(our pipes are 'blocked' air quotes so Kabir can't leave the tap running)
So Kabir has to turn on the pipe.

Then water will run.

It will rain.

Rain will snow.

Snow will make polar bear happy.

Seems like this phase of the lockdown is ending slowly. Here are some very local, very online things that helped me get through the lockdown. Parent-friendly, Koramangala friendly.

1/n
Food: I got the OPOS 5 min cookbook from Amazon via Prime Reading. (so... free I think?). Lifesaver. I believe the man who started this movement and his FB group aren't well liked? No matter. OPOS style cooking saves TIME.

Highly recommend. No learning curve. Noobfriendly.
Veggies and Fruits: if you live in Koramangala, cannot recommend enough Arafa Fruits/ Veggies near Sowbhagya / Iyengar Bakery in 5th Block (bonus Bakery makes stellar egg puffs)

+veggie shop hear Nakoda Medicals at Wipro Signal.

Both solid high quality well stocked.

Sitting across Uber/Ola union drivers, negotiating strike demands, talking to @nandiniv about contract workers, that's how GIGI was born.
150 million gig workers in India have no access to benefits.
This changes today.
We're building benefits for the future of work!
@nandiniv GIGI is a fintech company whose focus is on building really simple, micro, financial products that make a huge impact on the lives of those working in India's informal sector.
@nandiniv We've been live since 2019, working with various 2 wheeler and 4 wheeler gig workers in Bangalore, building and curating the right products for them.

We work with aggregators, marketplaces on the supply side, and the best and most trusted financial players on the product side.

Quick thread - work productivity mantra/life hack to maximize time utilization.

tldr: Break up the day into ACT-REACT-ACT blocks if you're a very senior manager or owner

Break up the day into REACT-ACT-REACT blocks if you're in client service, have dependencies, mid-junior team
What does this mean?

Essentially you ACT to take ownership and control of your time.

In this block you do what adds MOST value to your book.

Read, write, learn, a 1v1 meeting where you're the listener not giver, a jam session where someone is there to help YOU, etc.
You REACT when you're doing tasks that require you to catch a ball someone else has thrown.

Respond to emails, pings, look up info for someone (their ACT), give feedback, answer questions, participate in meetings that others lead, 1v1 where you're giving.

REACT clears the way.

Women's day wishes for brands:

1. Nykaa - you're awesome. Start a subscription box.

2. W - NOBODY WEARS TASSELS TO A WORK MEETING. STOP MAKING KURTAS WITH BOBBLES AND TASSELS.

3. Zivame - MOAR swimsuits.

4. NO ONE IN INDIA MAKES SENSIBLE WORK/FLAT SHOES
Warehouse, Westside, Nuon, Melange, Allen Solly, And (other Indian high street western wear brands).

By the time I can afford your clothes, I can't fit into a size 8 or go to work in a mini dress. Make knee length dresses for women with hips. Yes.
Sephora. You suck in India. Your staff is bored and disinterested and you only stock for fair skin tones. #waste

Whisper start a subscription box.

Bring back cuticura.

Bombay Paisley. Make clothes I can wear to a meeting not brunch.
