The Man Behind It…

Devesh was a happy and FREE man until the year 2003; he was enjoying his freedom and had already developed and run three successful businesses by that time. But Devesh wanted to learn more and grow as an entrepreneur so he decided to do an MBA (God only knows why), and found himself in the ‘land of opportunity’ (read America) in the fall of 2004. He did quite well at SUNY Oswego as he got a near perfect GPA and was welcomed into the most honorable academic society of business graduates (Beta Gamma Sigma) for being in the top 2% of the graduating class. He was happy, not realizing that following his graduation from B-School he would soon be sentenced to corporate jail. Considering it good for life, Devesh accepted his fate and was put into various corporate and Fortune 500 jails for over the next four years. Not finding a way out, Devesh started planning his escape and like many other freedom fighters, Devesh started writing a blog (we figure if historical freedom fighters had the technology, they would have preferred blogging over pen-paper writing) and a book while trapped inside his corporate jail (we guess he had nothing better to do anyways)… And finally, in September of 2009, after 4 long years of corporate jail time, he fled the corporate coup and went on a two month long vacation in India (We believe he deserved the break!).

Now Devesh is a FREE man again (he still wakes up screaming in the middle of the night, and we had a hard time explaining to the neighbors what those screams were all about, but we know for a fact that he still gets nightmares of being in or going back to the corporate jail). He does not want to get locked up again, so he has started his own consulting firm. One of the passions that Devesh developed while doing time was to help fellow corporate prisoners escape from the cubicle farm, so he has continued to write his blog and decided to publish his book. He envisions “Breaking The 9to5 Jail” and “Entrepreneur In Making” to be the #1 one-stop resources for aspiring entrepreneurs and cubicle prisoners… Now do you know what “Breaking the 9to5 Jail” is all about?
