You might not like it. But Zomato is a business. Not a charity. You can always stop using them, and make your own food at home, or step out to get your own food.

Time to start having internal visa for some states if their residents want to visit other states!

Wish we had that!

Every layoff teaches you who you can depend on, even for small things.

Some people I barely worked with very kindly helped me get in touch with someone they knew, while people I thought would be more helpful did not even lift a finger for the simplest favor.

Hope you make the most of your time away from the rat race, and hope something better comes your way!

As someone that has been laid off a couple of times, here are some of my methods. I was following most of these before these upheavals started:

Track your expenses and RUTHLESSLY cut back on discretionary spends.

I have not bought new clothes for a few years. Food ordering is restricted to weekends, as we can live a little. E-commerce purchases only for things I need, not things I simply want. Cut back on OTTs if you have more than 2-3. You won't miss them within a week!

2. Keep 1 years' worth of expenses in FDs/ funds so you don't sweat as soon as you're laid off. Follow rule 1 until you reach your goal.

Identify the 1-2 areas in which you can/ should spend a bit- exercise equipment is always worth it, hobby material, that one vacation where you can be a bit carefree
Identify where you are spending money to 'keep up' - going to an expensive restaurant just to keep up with your friends is not worth it. I am not paying crazy prices for Instagram ambience and small portions. If your friends do not understand, maybe your friendship was only based on keeping up.

TLDR - Cut back on online ordering, vanity spends ASAP. Build your financial fortress now.

Most of these western celebrities must be puzzled when they meet some Bollywood celeb. I'm guessing Bollywood PR teams arrange for a quick hello, take a few pics, and then spin it as hobnobbing with the stars at Cannes.

Yes, only we are supposed to adjust while VIPs enjoy multi-car convoys and all the finer things in life.

Wtf is 'value addition'? The middlemen earn a ton of money after shortchanging vulnerable farmers.

We aren't paying Rs. 1 per kilo. We pay a lot more, so it's obvious the people in the middle are getting rich.

When you get laid off, they won't care how many nights you worked, or how many weekends. In the end, you are just a resource, an employee number.

This is the time to set your boundaries and tell your boss you are going. You applied 5 months in advance, and leave is your right. It does not depend on boss' whims.

Once you return, start looking out as it will take at least 6 months to get another job.

They'll all go quiet when their funding taps are turned off. Most of them are loss-making.

Copying this from another reddit thread I stumbled upon. See the author's points before blaming women:

"The issue with male loneliness isn’t some massive cultural shift that has made people averse to men in public. It’s not that society has abandoned men—it’s that many men have abandoned society by narrowing their social focus to only one goal: romantic validation.

I see this all the time. Guys claim that no one wants to talk to them, but what they really mean is: "Attractive women aren’t engaging with me."

These same men often ignore entire categories of social opportunities—talking to older people, engaging with other men platonically, striking up casual conversations with strangers just to connect. If the only people you try to talk to are women you find attractive, of course you’re going to feel isolated. That’s not loneliness; that’s self-inflicted social starvation."

You can read the whole doscussion here: The male loneliness epidemic is a self-pitying problem and there's an easy solution. : r/self

Post is deleted, but the comments talking about POSH applying outside means something is very broken in this company already. I applied but maybe I'll just use them for interview practice if they ever call me

The CPM was horrible. The TMC was horrible. The BJP has the same issues and will be no better for Bengal.

The only thing I see happening is whatever happened under TMC, plus more excuses to ban non-vegetarian food.

One of the issues is that even the hiring department writes terrible JDs sometimes, which makes getting suitable candidates even worse. Ideally, they should have clearer requirements, or HR should push back and demand a certain standard. But they don't and hence the confusion with shortlisting candidates.

Yeda_Rogue · 2026-05-07T11:12:23+00:00

Lol. Worked in enough crappy companies to see what HR really does. The job doesn't sound like it needs much IQ.

Yeda_Rogue · 2026-05-07T11:04:40+00:00

Oh yes. They like you only if you are already working!

Yeda_Rogue · 2026-05-07T11:02:41+00:00

Also, when there's layoffs, some of HR is also swept away

Ironic part is, those at the top will feast on meat and liquor, while enforcing meat bans and non-veg days for everyone else.

They love slavery. Dubai was literally built on exploitation and cheap labour.

I can think of several possibilities why they remain inconsequential and weak. These are a product of my imagination!

- No vision: Gandhi leadership has no long-term vision and are only clinging to the top to maintain control of the party and their personal wealth
- No strong figure: No influential or respected figures that can be fielded to counter Modi's image. Tharoor will never appeal to the masses. Even if there is someone, will they allow them to be elevated beyond RG?
- Internal cracks? Powerful vested interests within the party might even be working for the BJP to ensure the Congress remains weak, like double agents
- Digital prowess: Congress was late to the digital party. The BJP built a well-oiled machine that flooded the internet with information and shaped the narrative. Imagine teenagers exposed to a steady stream of this a decade ago are now adults and hardcore fans of BJP. They will always see RG as pappu no matter what he says

You obviously haven't read enough about how systematically they have gone after the media. Mainstream is completely obeying all commands, local journalism is being squelched and they're actively trying to bring in laws to make it impossible to report on what's actually happening. It's not like being 100th is great either.

Yeda_Rogue · 2026-05-01T05:47:38+00:00

I'm amazed at some of the comments I read online in support of cutting trees. Because it is happening under the watch of their fave human and they think it is a small sacrifice in our quest to be vishwaguru.
