Handouts · 10 awkward days

The awkward days

A seven-day chart handles ordinary weeks. These ten guides handle the rest — the wedding, the mess hall, the 1 am canteen and the box of mithai on the counter.

Why a chart is not enough

Where seven-day plans fail

Nobody abandons a diet chart on an ordinary Tuesday. They abandon it at a wedding, in a hostel mess, on a night shift, or in the week the mithai box arrives — and a chart has nothing to say about any of those. These 10 handouts do, with the arithmetic still shown.
