I became Jo

I was never Jo. I was called Freejo.. Freejo Jose.

When I joined NITC for my Engineering, north indians called me Freezo...
When I joined Infosys as software engineer, she told she would like to call me Jo...
When I joined SPJIMR for my MBA, i was called many names - 'Hosae', Mr. Jose, Freezo, FreeShow etc.

Two weeks ago, I adopted a girl-child(Sonal) of 8th standard for mentoring which is part of my MBA program(called Abhyudaya). To the marathi-speaking girl, I introduced myself as Jo. She called me Jo dada.

Last Sunday, I went to Kondana Buddhist Caves with TISS College Students for Waterfall Rappelling and other adventure sports. I asked them to call me Jo.

Call it fate, I became Jo.
