Hiya! Welcome to back to Bajra Weekly!

A lot of changes happened this week at Bajra, let's have a look!

Broken cup and broken heart

The first morning of the week, Rojal dai was understandably heartbroken because his cup was broken! We hope he gets a replacement soon(with an entertaining caption this time hai). Please show more love to your cups and take care of them.

Rojal Dai + his cup: A love story ❤

Abi dai ko bhatti

Speaking of cups and the liquids we drink from them, a new bhatti opened up Monday morning at Bajra. Abi dai started his new side business after a ‘gentle’ persuasion from Maya didi (extremely ‘gentle’ 😂) and served us some top-notch quality tea. Best of luck for your business, Abi dai, and Selisha di, look out! You have a new competitor.

Since March 2020 :)

Birthday chocolates overload!

Moreover, we were treated with birthday chocolates from not one but TWO BajraBeings on the same day. The office was buzzing with excitement because — S0. MANY. CHOCOLATES!! Happy belated birthday, Abi dai and Susom! Thank you for the mitho mitho chocolates 🍬! Aaba treat ko pani kura milauna paryo hai gaichhh!

Let's make this the official birthday chocolate of Bajra, please 😋
Jati liye ni pugdaina 😜

Bajra in Mardi

Susom, along with the chocolates, also brought us a gift from his recent trek to Mardi. Thanks, Susom!

New hair, new Puja di? 😱

Same Puspanjali di (phew! 😌) but we almost did not recognize her, when she showed up with highlights in her hair! Need I say more? 😁

Work from home

Even more shocking than Puja di’s hair was the news that we were to work from home. As a precaution to coronavirus, Bajra decided that working from home was the best way to go. So Monday was the last day we spent at the office. All of the above-mentioned stuff happened on Monday — yep, we had a jam-packed Monday. We have been working from home since Tuesday (17th March 2020), and hopefully will be back in the office soon. Here are a few pictures of the last day in the office, packing up:

All packed and ready!

So how do we feel about working from home?

We miss the office, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do..
Hangout meetings 3 times a day🙄
Photo sharing session 😝

Even though we are working remotely, we stay in contact via our Viber group and have long hangout sessions. Sharing memes and videos is how we keep ourselves entertained during these crazy times.

And that’s a wrap on this week! Amid the chaos of the COVID-19 pandemic, I hope you are following the 101 safety measures to keep yourself and your loved ones safe! Don’t believe everything you hear from the media, practice social distancing and most importantly, wash your hands, folks!

Also, keep a lookout for more of Bajra’s weekly shenanigans!
