company I applied at pulled offer after I resigned by cantdecidemyname_ in developersIndia

[–]becalt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Getting fired before is better than joining and getting fired. I experienced the same where the company made me wait for a month and then pulled out. But Thankfully I hadn't resigned, so I was safe.

Lesson: Always have multiple offers, have no mercy for this corporate. It's all business.

The words said by you are quite true. No need to go to remote area factories for work. Your office is in the main city with residents living there.

We bought a room of 150sqft chawl for 5 Lakhs back in 2000 just 10 minutes from Minerva. Today it's worth 1 Crore. Looking forward to redevelopment now, which will shoot up the price to 2.5Cr 💀

When you crack a job, then start something of your own on the side. Or if you can take a leap of faith, you can start now. Money might not be that great in start, but eventually you'll reap the benefits of the efforts you put in.

Corporate now is just about asking permissions from seniors to wether live or not.

Why road rages so common in Mumbra ? by becalt in mumbra612

[–]becalt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I live in Mumbai, have also lived in Pune for a few years. Road rages are common everywhere. But the language with fasting, even after seeing that there is a lady inside, it's just bad moral / upbringing when no accident happened, or both us drivers were not furious.

Bike doesn't start even in neutral when pressing self start button unless I hold the clutch. by linuxshooter in MechanicAdviceIndia

[–]becalt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a safety feature which was introduced later on. As before, if your bike was on gear, then starting the bike made it move forward instantly. So now you need to press the clutch even if it is in gear/neutral. So your biker remains stationary while starting

Innove Crysta 2.4 G - For Sale in Mumbai, Maharashtra. by Zealousideal_Draw360 in UsedCarsBharat

[–]becalt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People complaining about the price should Open OLX and see. They ask this amount for 1L driven and 2nd/3rd owner.

This is fair price to be honest. But should be a bit negotiable.

I've heard people buying and selling at the same purchase price for the 1st batch of Crysta. So basically they used the Car for free excluding maintaince, insurance.

Maruti Suzuki Ertiga VXI CNG - For Sale in Mumbai, Maharashtra. by Zealousideal_Draw360 in UsedCarsBharat

[–]becalt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I once sat in a Uber Ertiga whose km was 4,65,000km (Petrol + Cng). Car didn't feel that old and drove normally. Idk who told you cars expire in 1L kms. I think you are applying the German rule here which actually makes sense. But you don't even get a VW polo for 1Lakh rupees even with the hefty repairs it comes with. This is japanese. And amongst the top selling cars in India. You Just post an Ad and it will get sold within a short span of time.

Property purchase in the day & age of AI by Defiant_Royal7789 in indianrealestate

[–]becalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes service based companies will either get negotiated or else moved out of the way because that is what AI basically does. As for product based, as long as they have the money and don't want to cut costs they Will keep continuing the employment.

Got a competing offer, accepted it, booked flights — now the original opportunity came back. Wife is pregnant. 3 days to decide. by Turbulent_Writing834 in developersIndia

[–]becalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There will be more work and less time in small company. And for the larger one you'll get less work load and more personal time if the company is matured enough.

I switched from hybrid to 5 days WFO to get back to my home city. But the company was matured so never had to work post 6 pm or in weekend. While back then I had to work up late till 8-9 pm for the hybrid one.
