d/JodiMilan • Follow post Save Hide Report 28m, farmer’s son, engineer now, both identities intact 28, based in Lucknow, working as a civil engineer. I come from a farming family in a smaller district nearby. Hindu, 5'9", vegetarian, non-drinker. I still go back home most weekends to help with the fields, which some of my city colleagues find genuinely surprising given the degree. To me there's nothing to reconcile. The engineer and the farmer's son are the same person, and I'm proud of both halves. During the week, I follow football and fuss over a small balcony garden that's a poor substitute for actual farmland... 1 0 Share
d/JodiMilan • Follow post Save Hide Report 34m, three failed startups and counting the lessons not the failures 34, based in Hyderabad, currently on business attempt number four. Telugu, Hindu, 5'10", non-vegetarian, social drinker. My previous three ventures taught me a lot more about myself than any of them actually made in money. I've decided to frame that as character development rather than failure, partly because it's true and partly because it's the only sane way to keep going. I'm not reckless, just genuinely unwilling to stop building. Away from work I love cricket, spicy food that makes even locals wince slightly, and drawing up cautiously optimistic five-year... 1 0 Share
d/JodiMilan • Follow post Save Hide Report 26f, numbers all day, feelings in the evening 26, based in Mumbai, working as a CA. Sindhi, Hindu, 5'2", non-vegetarian, occasional drinker. I spend my working hours buried in spreadsheets, and then my evenings trying to remember how to have an unstructured conversation that doesn't end in a balanced ledger. There's a real switch I have to flip between work-brain and person-brain, and I'm getting better at it. To offset all that precision, my free time is deliberately loose. I love Bollywood trivia, cooking without measuring anything exactly, and weekend plans that have no real structure at all,... 1 0 Share
d/JodiMilan • Follow post Save Hide Report 27f, tribal roots, corporate job, both fully intact 27, currently in Bangalore for work, originally from Kohima. Naga, Christian, 5'4", non-vegetarian, occasional drinker. I grew up with a completely different food culture and cadence of life than most of the people I now work alongside every day. Rather than picking one world over the other, I've come to genuinely like straddling both. Neither side of me feels like a costume. In my own time I hike whenever I can, listen to regional music that reminds me of home, and cook dishes most of my colleagues have never even... 1 0 Share
d/JodiMilan • Follow post Save Hide Report 25f, army family, disciplined by default 25, based in Chandigarh, working as a physiotherapist. I grew up moving cities every few years thanks to my father's army postings. Sikh, 5'4", non-vegetarian, occasional drinker. Discipline was baked into my childhood, it was never a personality choice I made later. Constant moving, early routines, order in everything. One genuine skill I've walked away with is the ability to pack an entire house in 48 hours, which comes up more often than you'd think. That structure has stayed with me. I run, play badminton, and like my weekends quietly... 1 0 Share
