See, we want to solve every problem in our life. At least solve our basic problems, which keep our life running like food, home. See, I want to say that you should keep updating yourself in life. Only then will you be able to grow properly, otherwise you will remain stuck there. In life either you will have to include humans, otherwise you will remain entangled in those old basic things. And you do not have to include your family members for cooking.
Put Priority Comfort In Your Life: –
Now the benefit of keeping a cook in life will be that you will be able to fulfill your and your family’s needs very comfortably. There are many benefits of keeping a cook here. Firstly, there will be arrangement of food for your family members or people who are coming to you. Because the people who have come to your house will expect from you only that you should make arrangement of food for them. So, in such situations if there is a cook, it will be better.
In your Village Find Cook Through Your Known: –
Now just like in the city you will get a cook on hourly basis. Similarly in the village you can find out about a cook through the people of your community. And you will get someone or the other. I don’t want to waste my life, I want to live it.
Why We feel Unsafe from the People, to include our Life:-
Now you will have to consider this thing when you include the number of cooks in your life. Who has what mindset. If he works during working hours, then you will keep that cook in your house for work.
No Friendship with your Cook and Privacy Issues With Cook: –
You should not be too familiar with your cook, you have to get work done from him. And after the work is over, you have to buy her. And you do not have to keep a permanent maid, no matter what happens. So, all in all, you were living your minimalistic life till now.
Now you will not be able to live that either. Because now you have handed over a part of your life to some other person. So, till now you were living your minimalistic life in the kitchen, now you will not be able to live that.
Now whether you live in a single room or a 2 BHK room, there also you will feel that you should get some level of privacy. Hence you will have to see whether the cook in front of you is able to prepare the food on time or not. Hence, after getting your food prepared by him on time, you can ask your cook to leave. And anyway, you have not kept that cook permanently.
Your cook also knows this and he will go away on his own. Because he has to go to other houses also to work. What do they have in your room, they don’t have to take or give anything from it. So, don’t worry about what your cook will say after seeing your room.
You Come Here For Job Not for Settle Here: –
You have come to the city from your home or to some other location. So, you have come there to study or to work. Why are you worrying about the fact that you do not have sufficient resources to cook food. So, don’t worry, just ask your cook, if he needs anything he will tell you. And your problem will end on its own. In the city no one has so much free time that they can talk to you.
If You Are Alone, Manage Time with Your Cook and Decide Food Making Time for Cook: –
You should understand the value of your time, because now you will have to reach your room at a fixed time every morning. So now if you want this, then you should trust your cook. You can also give him the key of your room, so when you are not in your room, then your cook will make your food and leave. Or you can keep the key of your room in your room. When he comes, he will open the gate.
You should get your food prepared in the morning before 8:30 am. So, that you can concentrate on your daily college and other work as well. You can decide the time for yourself but try here that you keep at least morning food prepared for yourself. It may be if you are on night duty.
If you have time for evening also, you can keep a cook for the evening as well. But generally students or job workers who do not even have time to come to their rooms, they get food for entire 15-16 hours prepared in one go. So, that they don’t have to worry about making healthy food to eat frequently. If you have a fridge, you can make food once and store food for the whole day in your fridge.
Single Room vs 1 BHK Room Privacy Comfort With Cook:
See, if you keep a cook and you have to lose some privacy of your room for some time. So, you do one thing, whatever important item you have, keep it inside your cupboard. Now this is the only thing that makes a difference, what kind of room you have. You should try, if the rooms you have have doors, then you can enjoy your privacy in a better way.
But if you don’t have any kind of personal room in the house you have. As it happens in case of a student, then you will have to compromise for 1-2 hours. And now you have to keep a cook for yourself only for single time. When your earnings increase and you have your own house permanently, then you can keep a cook permanently for both the times.
And now try compromising on this thing for one month. Are you able to live comfortably with your cook, without disturbing your privacy or not. If you can manage, then there is no need for you to change the room.
Now, if you have a 1 BHK room, it is good but it should be such that your cook comes to you comfortably, cooks food and leaves without disturbing you. It means the kitchen should be outside your room. So, for this kind of environment you will have to shift from single room to 1 BHK room. And for this you will also have to see how to find a better room, in comparison to now.
So, right now you are in a single room, try managing food for yourself, if you are still not able to manage the rest, you can change your room.
Take Care Of Your Budget and Manage Your Single Room Space for Cooking: –
You have to earn that much money on monthly basis, where you can comfortably pay for your cook and room rent. And remember, you must not compromise your personal peace at all. And keep in mind, wherever you live, you cannot survive without food. So you have to earn at least 3000 rupees a month for simple food in these tier-2 tier-3 cities.
If you have a single room, then all your work, from cooking to sleeping, is done in that single room. And if you do not stay in the room daily, then you have to keep only your food and sleeping items in your room. You have to keep the rest of the items in your locker, cupboard etc.
Conclusion: –
Don’t think too much, arrange for a cook for yourself. Or you can tell your cook that when he comes and finds the main gate of the house closed, he should call you, so that his time is also saved and he can prepare food for you on time and leave. You believe, if a person is doing cooking work from a very salon, then he will not waste much of your time. He knows and does not waste your time either.
And if a cook tries to be more loyal to you than you, you should tell him straight away that he does not have time to spare. So he will not keep any contact with you.
