Why is Bangalore so hot these days? 🥵

How are you all even surviving without water?

Can’t sleep at night and the city is making me cry now.

Why Bangalore is this hot?

I've been in Bengaluru for the past two months, and I've experienced illness, including fever and cold, three to four times. I'm wondering if this is a common occurrence, or if others also frequently fall sick in Bengaluru?

Health Concerns in Bengaluru(Frequent Illness Experiences)

I live in the top floor(terrace just above) of a apartment and the heat here is making me crazy.
My bed is hot, my fan isn't giving enough air, it's hot air everywhere.
I in general sweat a lot. When I go to sleep and wake up, my entire bed is wet from sweat and can't sleep for few hours because of the heat.
For the entire day, I am shirtless and still can't take the heat. 
  To make matters worse, electricity goes at anytime even in the middle of the day. That time, it feels like sweat won't stop at all.
  I don't have an AC here or power backup and the heat is fucking with my mental peace. Even the water from the filter is hot water🥲

Summer in Bangalore seems to be bad and worse is predicted. Is it better to go for air cooler considering portability and cheaper or air conditioner considering effectiveness 

No one from any big electronic showrooms are advocating for air coolers since they are lesser cost maybe ? But if I ask Bing Co Pilot it’s suggesting Air cooler is better considering the usage is not widespread since temperature in Bangalore drops after July 

What do you guys think

Air Cooler or Air Conditioner ?

I recently got an offer and am planning to move to Gurgaon. I was trying to find an opportunity in Bangalore because I love this place, or maybe it’s just change I detest. But nothing worked out and here I am. 
Has anyone made the same move? Or maybe vice versa? Which place do you think is better and why?

Hey, has anyone moved to Dubai for work. 
A relative and a few friends moved recently and only have very good things to say. But wanted to get a balanced view. What are the pros and cons of moving there for work? My current understanding: 

Pros
-Tax free income 
-Cosmopolitan environment 
-Hopefully better work life balance

Cons
-Expensive overall (Rent, Food)
-Harsh weather 
-No easy path to citizenship

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I am a middle class guy working as a senior engineer in one of the product companies. I belong from the north-east, and I am the only child in my family. 

Since covid, I was working in a wfh setup. Recently, my company has ended work from home for everyone, and I am supposed to move to Bangalore very soon or quit. 

I am an active user on all social media groups on Reddit, Fb, etc. For the past couple of months after seeing so much of negative news about Bangalore, Especially the high population, skyrocketing rents, the auto unions, corruption, cut-throat competition, discriminative news, traffic issues, etc. It makes me nervous to be honest. My wfh here was pretty chill, and I had a very limited social circle here, but was satisfied since I could spend most time with my mom and dad. 

Im very afraid now about what should I do next, shall I quit the job and search for wfh, or shall I make my move. I don’t have any acquaintances there, no friends, no idea about what I’ll be doing next, how to start house hunting, or job hunting. At this point I am miserable and overwhelmed to think about all of this. 

Anyone who has gone through all of these, If you can share your 2cents, experiences or thoughts, about how you dealt this phase. It will be really helpful for me at this point in my journey. Thanks in advance! 🙏🏻

Good morning everyone,  

Bangalore weather has me almost convinced to not work today 😂

What this post is: a place to hang around and chat just about anything - without having a specific topic to discuss.  
Think of it like the watercooler at your office.  
 
Look forward to hearing from you all :)

Bangalore haters

Hi,
I am a 2023 graduate and currently working in a product based startup in Indiranagar. When I came to Bangalore a few months ago, it was all fun and exciting. I still love my work (working in multiple tech stacks). But somehow life outside the work has become somewhat boring. I do go on bike ride trips but again can't go every weekend.

I play badminton and cricket sometimes but still feel bored sometimes.

I don't go to clubs as I don't drink and smoke. Would love if you folks can suggest something?

How to chill in Bangalore?

Alright,  Bangalore is the best city in India. It's not just the best, it's in a league of its own compared to other cities.

First off, let's talk about the weather. Bangalore's weather is perfect all year round, magical. Unlike heat waves of Delhi and the shit humidity of Mumbai, Bangalore's climate is the best. 

Who wants to sweat anytime you step out or freeze to death in winters? Not me. 

Bangalore is where the real innovation happens. Really smart people making this country better. These Delhi Bombay kids caught lacking for real.

And the people? Bangalore's got the best of the country. It's cosmopolitan. You've got people from all over the country, and everyone's more educated and progressive. 

So, let's cut to the chase. Bangalore is the best city, hands down. The rest of India can keep dreaming, but they'll never catch up.
