dabbas


This shot was taken by Maithili at Matunga, today.
Undoubtedly, I feel the dabbawalas of the city are one of the best management people in the country. Here are a group of people who have represented themselves in top management schools across the globe. Here are a group of people who have always proved themselves to be regular, efficient, and dedicated.

The dabbawalas have surely made a mark for themselves. It surprises me to see that every dabba reaches whomever it needs to reach so efficiently and correctly. I just wish we could learn something out of these men who deliver us the dabbas everyday. This space would be such a better place to be in, had we simply learn the best out of certain things...

For the dabbas, where all our disciplines awaits...

Rahul, just d other day, there was a movie in Marathi which was on these Dabbawallahs and the way they function.. Its amazing to see the way they have their own code language, with regards to the area, lane, no of dabbewallah, pincode of the client area, the biulding intial and floor no.

It was just amazing..
