Umesha, based in Bengaluru, emphasized the autonomy he experiences in his role. "If I do my work well, no one complains," he stated. Umesha, who previously ran his own company, added, "Main apna khud ka malik hoon (I am my own boss). I still feel like I am my own boss."

Vinish V., a delivery partner from Kerala, echoed similar sentiments. He expressed happiness with his job, appreciating the freedom it offers. He mentioned that he can choose not to accept deliveries and take time off whenever he wishes. "It's not like this at other places," he remarked.

Jaswinder Singh, working in Chandigarh, discussed the differences between Zomato and other companies. "I don't have anyone bossing me around," he said, adding that he can always contact his Team Leader if he encounters any issues during deliveries. Singh praised his Team Leader for being responsive and providing solutions whenever associates reach out.

Goyal, who has faced criticism regarding the operational conditions of delivery partners, found the interaction insightful. He gained valuable knowledge and suggestions on how to enhance Zomato's processes.

The video of the interaction has been shared on Instagram, providing a glimpse into the working lives of Zomato's delivery agents and the company's efforts to improve their working conditions.
