[Week 6] Unexpected Break

-

Monday morning blues were in full effect. I was already running late and mentally preparing for the dreaded commute when a work-from-home announcement saved the day. After a well-deserved extra hour of sleep, I settled into my makeshift home office with a cup of chai. While I miss the office banter, there's something undeniably relaxing about working in pyjamas.

Awchat & Olsen,  Mumbai College vs. Corporate Coming straight from the world of college, this first week has been an eye-opener. Don't get me wrong, I loved the flexibility and freedom of college life. There were late-night study sessions fuelled by pizza, impromptu cancelled classes, and endless discussions about everything and nothing with classmates. Here at Awchat & Olsen, the structure is different. There are set schedules, deadlines to meet, and a focus on professional communication. It's definitely an adjustment!

I realized that my typography skills needed significant improvement. Fortunately, my mentor, Salil Awchat, provided invaluable guidance and support throughout the process. His expertise was instrumental in helping me refine the typography ...
