“I came to Guntur from Mulapalem with big plans. My parents were proud of me when I completed intermediate from my village. They were confident that I would do something productive in life. When I came here, I was employed at a factory with a salary of Rs. 12,000 per month, which was a lot back then. I used to work for 12 hours every day. But all of a sudden, they started mistreating me. I was made to run all across the city to get their work done. They would even call me in the middle of the night for work. Somehow it felt like they didn’t want me around anymore. So I quit. For a while, I had no idea what to do with my life — I’d dedicated everything to the company. But then I remembered why I left it, dignity of labor. So, I went ahead and set up my own juice center. At first, I found it hard to believe but slowly I started taking my business seriously. Today, I am my own boss, completely self sufficient and most importantly, happier than I have been in a long time.”
