Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I'm currently in the Junior year of my college and I've received an internship offer as a SDE from one of the respected companies(hasn't laid off anyone yet). Since 2024 is the year I graduate, I was wondering what the scenario might be according to the people senior to me. Will we be a victim to the situation as well! The terror is for real :/

Layoff terror

e.g in my case:

1. I go for a walk almost everyday around 12:30ish AM (in HSR). Helps me process how my day went. 

2. Whenever I used to book a rapido bike/scooty, i used to drive it myself with the rapido driver as pillion. (just asked them nicely, 90% of them didn't refuse). Now I have my own bike though.

3. Most of the time when I have traveled in a train, i travel in the general box of trains. Only to connect/listen to stories of that section of our society, even though i could afford tickets for other classes.

Everything's going to shit recently. I can't help but wonder where are we heading. We celebrate reaching the other side of the moon but can't have the basics right. There's airports collapsing, bridges falling, ministers houses flooding in the capital of the nation, while the people are stuck blaming, infighting and staying divided. 

Our air is unbreathable, roads unusable, water not drinkable, food is no better than poison. Our education system doesn't seem to get better. Hoards of people for government jobs whose papers keep getting leaked. 

The amount of private jobs you could count on your fingers and the applicants are hundreds for a single role. 

I write this rant feeling defeated in my home, where I've been born, lived and seen everyone I love live. 

I fear for myself but more than that my family, my parents for whom I dream of giving the world to. 

At this point, I understand why people leave this country in a heartbeat.

Ok don't come at me 🤐

Bro, you are earning. Shouldn't you just be grateful that you are not born in war torn Afghanistan or disease ridden Africa. I mean life could be so much worse. In fact, the only difference between you and the office boy is the household you were born in. If that office boy was born in your home, he probably would be as successful as you. 

You already won the lottery. Why not just do your part and pay the income tax so that the tax money can be used to provide a better life to those who are unprivileged.

I am not excusing the corruption in the system but just find the cribbing unbearable 

Just be greatful

Why do people keep ranting about income tax

Oh, I thought this must be some smart argument, the moment I read “difference between you & the office boy is the household…”.  
  
 No bro, it’s no so simple. People work hard to make a living. People crib about taxes because some of us are paying ‘first world rates with third world facilities’. Only single digit % of population is bearing the load of rest-of-population. Even corporate tax rates are < Salary tax rates.

DINKs, (dual income no kids) have been gaining traction a lot lately. I want to know from the members of gravevine, what are their views on being a DINK couple or a DINKWAD( double income no kids with a dog). From financial prospects like having a huge disposable income to emotional aspects like not having a legacy or going against custom Indian tradition. Do share your thoughts 🤔💭

What are your thoughts about being DINKS?

We are a DINK couple (live-in, will get married soon) and absolutely no plans to have kids. Maybe be a DINKWAD someday by adopting an indie. Also no plans to buy a home or spend on our marriage. This is not a financial decision (both of us are doing decently well in our careers) but we don't want to have a child knowing how nothing around is improving and we don't want to sacrifice the best years of our lives by doing this. We are building a large corpus to be financially independent and travel without any financial restrictions.
