Aur main uss wqat naukri kar rahi thi Mc Donald's mein jhaadu pochhe ki jisme mahine ka Rs 1800 mil raha tha. Toh mere liye din ka Rs 1200 was much better than mahine ka Rs 1800. Mere paas uss waqt naukri nahi thi aisi. Agar aap Rs 1800 mahine ka kamate ho aur aap 22-23 saal ke ho aur aapko apna ghar chalana hai, aapke paas option nahi hai. " (He asked me, 'What are you signing?' I was going to receive between rupees 1200 to 1400 in the contract. At that time, I was working as a cleaner at McDonald's, earning Rs 1800 per month. So, earning Rs 1200 per day was much better for me than Rs 1800 per month. I didn't have another job then. When you're 22-23 years old, earning Rs 1800 per month and supporting a household, you don't have many options).
