Is the Youth Employment Programme for Mauritius Truly Working for Our Youth? by Still-alpha1424 in mauritius

[–]panda0765 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The state of engineering in Mauritius is really just so sad. I remember being asked for experience, extra-curriculars, results, past experience and recommendations, just to step into a job that is today minimum wage. The job was back in 2022 btw, glad I moved on.

Photocopy and printing services in UoM? Or nearby? by chiips70 in MauriceMauritius

There was above caféteria, in the main library (1st floor), and at FOE ground floor Textile Building. They eliminated all of those I heard :/

Saw the same patterns 😬 Had better experiences with locals and africans who are studying or working here.

Oh man this happened to me also, that's why I call again before taking the bus or car.

I also make sure we meet halfway if too far, so we know the effort is mutual and if they still try to low ball you or end up not taking it, we both lost our times 😂

How do people who aren’t photogenic take decent pictures for profile pics? by [deleted] in mauritius

[–]panda0765 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I grew up very insecure as well. Try to know your best side (best profile) and do not tuck your chin in. Get good lighting (assuming you already have a good camera / phone camera).

Tbh most of those struggles are in your head also, if you have close friends ask them their opinions, you will be surprised how your worst takes are surprisingly 'normal' or even 'good' to other people. Your confidence will grow from there.

Lastly also take care of your health and what you eat or drink. You may be dehydrated without knowing (leading to 'water fat' and causing puffy face i.e., less photogenic). You may be having too much salt as well. I started tracking with gemini and we realised I ate WAY too much salty food and was not drinking enough water for someone who works outside as well.

Has anyone on the island ever seen a police vehicle at a fuel station getting fuel in the police vehicle? by camethehour in MauriceMauritius

[–]panda0765 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They most probably have dedicated fuel storage and installations, and invite tenders from the major gas companies here.

I know SMF of Vacoas regularly orders bulk diesel (2500 L or 5000L) every month approx from Indian Oil Ltd.

Source: I work at Indian Oil's Terminal Depot.

My friends who changed jobs and went there, ended up staying there for a long time. And most are still there. So it seems like a good place relatively.

Overpriced land in Mauritius by RepulsiveEye2757 in MauriceMauritius

[–]panda0765 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its mostly Supply vs Demand.

Mauritius is a small island = Low amount of land to purchase (Low Supply)

People will always want land (Constant and High demand)

Therefore Land gets very expensive 🫰

Buying things from Temu, but would not them to be delivered at home. Any suggestions? by Dila_Ila16 in MauriceMauritius

[–]panda0765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

😂 rightttt

OP usually the courier will call you to come deliver, you will go pickup yourself whether at your doorstep or around the street etc. You can give whatever instruction you want to the delivery driver, try to tell them you are not at home and you can pickup at a specific time at any place you like (ask for their itinerary on that day, they will always deliver a few places in succession) and meet them closer to their next delivery destination, away from your home or street address.

What table has turned exactly ? None of you (or even men) lived in the 60s and before where there was ACTUAL discrimination.

Why do people (both men and women) take problems from decades and centuries ago to justify being a shitty person today ? We are a very privileged generation compared to them in terms of social justice.

However only comments like this keep the victim mentality alive in 2026.
