It is Independence Day today. While India got its independence way back in 1947, the Indian professionals are still very much confined. They are in a way captive to their managers or their recruiters or the company policies or something or the other.
All the professionalism aside, we are all suckers for freedom at work. But we seldom get it, do we? At least not the way we want it! You could get some *creative freedom* here and there but at the end of the day you remain on some sort of leash. But what if I told you there are jobs, actual jobs that come with a promise of considerable freedom if not one hundred percent? You’d want to find more about them, right? So here we go-
