Welcome to Moving Abroad's Private Community

I have many friends who are into IT and Tech(read again Tech not IT). Whenever I am speaking to the IT folks and understand their aspirations I always find that they have this strange thing mentioned every now and then i.e. Going to the Clients location(all overseas) for a couple of months and coming back or extending for a longer duration say a few years and purchasing a house/flat back in India. 

I don't understand how going to the client's location(even if it's on Mars) and earning $$$ can be life's ultimate goal. 

What am I missing here? 

I am not able to understand since I have always believed that life's ultimate goal would be always bigger for people(achievable/non achievable are different things). 
Does working in IT make people so myopic that they are destined to think in  the straight line process and wait for that token(at least what I have heard is that it's some weird selection they do to select and send you abroad on the projects). May be this thought process makes most of the crowd stick to the systems for years and decades at work. Is it considered that bigger of an achievement OR Is it a way to make people stick around for longer duration ?

What am I missing here ?

How can life goals be so small ?

Why do IT folks consider going at Clients location(foreign location) at their ultimate goal in their life?

Rampant Negativity at Yubi Part 2

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Heard from a friend that he flew out to his office in the middle of the night from his wedding because mortgage backed securities started to crumble in NA during ’07 crisis.

Dude was bummed.

What is the worst thing your boss did to you?

Initially he asked me to fill his water bottle, bring snacks for him. Dint mind doing 1-2 times. But it was continuous with other juniors too.  
  
 Took a chance one day to spit on his water bottle and brought snacks for the whole team (20 people, kurkure and frooti).  🫢

Got a new phone and trying to find a new wallpaper now. Here's my old wallpaper...
Suggestions are appreciated.

Designers? Drop best phone wallpapers please.

Let me spill the tea on what's buzzing over at Grapevine in last 24 hours. You're in for a treat with these top posts, so let's dive in ASAP:

1. GenZ Co-Workers Vibes - https://share.gvine.app/JMZ71q9XfPTWaepM7
People are sharing their mixed bags of feelings about their GenZ colleagues. It's like a love-hate relationship with their fresh perspectives but sometimes, their work ethic gets a side-eye.

2. Corporate Drama - https://share.gvine.app/LuGxKBfB3BjBaFym8
Someone's really not having it with the corporate world playing dirty with job offers. It's a whole saga of promises made and broken. The tea is piping hot with this one!

3. Emotional Rollercoaster - https://share.gvine.app/TcVn4dPDdwPDiWTq9
There's a soul out there feeling all the feels and wondering if they're alone in their emotional whirlwind. Spoiler: You're not alone, babe.

4. Life's Regrets - https://share.gvine.app/uX2Wamf5qvVZ9hc78
People are getting real about what they'd redo if given a chance, across generations. It's like a confession session but with less guilt.

5. Job Hunt Desperation - https://share.gvine.app/egu4q8VvMWqxnCYx6
A techie got laid off and is now in the job-hunting trenches, sharing their struggle and hoping for a lifeline. The struggle is real, folks.

6. Life Lessons at 35 - https://share.gvine.app/h4hR9khngHNe5QSc6
The 35-year-olds are dropping wisdom about what beliefs they've left behind. It's like a glow-up but for your mindset.

7. ML Engineer's Rant - https://share.gvine.app/S4gXR759S81cSGSm9
An ML engineer is feeling the heat with job insecurity and interview rejections. It's a tough world out there for the tech-savvy.

8. Singlehood Woes - https://share.gvine.app/N5fbHue95QhpP1hm8
Someone's pondering if flying solo at 29, especially as an introvert, is as daunting as it seems. Spoiler: It's complicated.

9. Ambition or Lack Thereof - https://share.gvine.app/U9ut9RH5xXrNm8LK8
There's a debate brewing about whether corporate folks lack ambition or if it's just a case of different strokes for different folks. 

10. WhatsApp's New Look - https://share.gvine.app/4SbeBYLvkhPvS8nV6
WhatsApp's latest update has got people feeling some type of way about its new dark theme and that, ahem, unique shade of green. 

My take? It's a whole mood with these posts. From corporate dramas that make you wanna roll your eyes out to the existential crises that hit too close to home, Grapevine's got it all. 

And let's not even start on WhatsApp's fashion faux pas with that green. 

Honey, who approved that? Whether you're here for the gossip, the support, or just to kill time, there's something for everyone. 

Keep scrolling folks.

Honestly I had a very very bad experience with the app !!! 

Though they have a very strong sales team, who keep pushing. I guess their product manager is the dumbest of the dumb. 

Do you even care about your baby (product) ? Do you think you do justice for the fat paycheck ?

They have a preference option wherein mandatory and secondary can be input...

Oh my god shittiest implementation.... App Gives right opposite to selected preference.

Funny part is there are profiles, with religion as Hindu sub sect as Sunni... Religion Christian sub sect Brahmin :facepalm:

If any one is seeing this just install the app and use it for week dumbos...
