Today O-campus was bursting with activities. Rat, Prakash,
Leela and Yashas joined for Survey. Yashas planted his Papaya tree and spent
three hours in decorating the pit, watering and digging around to store water
for the tree.
One round of survey happened and hopefully we got our final
boundaries.
My learning curve is taking its own turns. I am not very
happy with depending on Sriram for the material, he has been telling various
rates. Spoke to Maduhkar and he advised to look for more suppliers – this simple
tip made so much of difference. The focus changed from “Sriram to stop cheating
to finding more options” for the same work done J. Prakash and Leela
were bog help in sorting all the accounts at the end of the week
Looking forward to Monday to look for more suppliers,
connect with and find more options.
Today one murder happened in Kelmanagala market in the day
time, I was in that area with – it was scary to see that dead body – have heard
in movies or newspaper, today saw it. The entire town was quite but had lot of hulchul in the market. Market was running as usual. I crossed the road and when I came back after 10min I saw dead body in blood. Exploring life and various aspects.
Yesterday some one from mud block team took money form petty
cash and took away one music system. I informed about the loss and told them to
return back if that can. Gave the house key again for them to stay in night.
It take s along to make relationship – guess, it will take
time Sriram and others to start working with honesty – so the loss of money is
also part of process. Loss of money is in various forms – taking extra than the
bill amount, charge more and work less etc etc will settle as we grow in our
relationship.
Pramod, young man doing his Phd in what he likes doing. He
wants us to plant fruit trees all along the boundary wall. He says “preserve
childhood, lets kids enjoy, I spent my summer holidays under a tree in my
grandpa’s house”. Also he thinks this
will be a good way to make relationship with locals – “plant the tree and do
not bother about who eats the fruits”.
He shared “most of the people who come to us are not in a
hurry and hence do not pay any bribe for registering their site. He thinks we
pay bribe because we are in a hurry J.
