Following the Rules

It's a good thing that I went straight home on Monday night, as I learned on Tuesday that our corporate policy (in Chennai) is that employee guests from onshore should always be escorted by a local employee.

As a very independent American who lives alone and has no problem travelling alone (and regularly seeks opportunities to break rules!), this would normally have made me bristle, but the recent attacks on women in two villages in Lucknow -- coupled with the reports over the past few years of increasing violence against women in India, have given me pause.

And so I would not have wanted to break corporate rules, get myself in trouble, and inadvertently get Raja or Saj into trouble to boot.
