Priyanka and Ragu Murthy jokingly refer to themselves as the “Murthy Family of Losers.” That’s because they’re constantly losing wallets, keys and their TV remote.
Ms. Murthy, the 38-year-old CEO of a fine jewelry business, recently went to work without her laptop. Her husband, a 40-year-old cardiologist, usually returns five minutes after leaving their Jacksonville, Fla., home because he forgot his stethoscope or his phone.
“I was voted ‘Most Disorganized’ in high school,” Dr. Murthy said.
Now they attach Tiles, those little Bluetooth-powered trackers, to everything. But they’ve lost those, too, and even dropped some in water.
Their 4-year-old son, Raaghuv, has apparently inherited his parents’ absent-mindedness. He frequently misplaces his favorite blanket, so the Murthys affixed a Tile sticker to it so they can locate it at bedtime.
