When I visit India, I make it a point my close friends. I’ve know them since the age of 5. We were in middle school and high school together. It is hard to recreate such bonds later in life. My friends are in various professions. One of them has been running a cloth store. This is their family business that they have been running for about 50 years now. For the past 20 years, he has been doing the same thing. Most women in India wear Punjabi suits. These are comfortable and stylish as well as very feminine and modest. My friend sells dress materials for these women’s suits. I can’t imagine being confined to a small space all day for 6 days of the week. I guess he likes the interaction with women and convincing them to buy. There is a LOT of bargaining, sweet talk and flattery involved in a sale. Life is good though and he makes a very good living. So it’s not such a bad deal.
