MEN ☕- Grapevine

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Why is it that some men show too much interest in you for initial few weeks, like asking for ig and then ig messages. Seeing your stories just about the instant you post it. They tell you about their last break up they can't get over with but still tell you that falling in love is the most beautiful part of life and talk about wanting to settle down - until the time you show interests and hola! They suddenly change their verdicts - suddenly they're no more interested. Suddenly they get busy and don't respond to your messages anymore. 
My question to men, what do you seek from a woman when you are looking for some serious engagements. Whom should one trust with attachments?

Question to men

1. In depth Medical study of female body. 
It is shocking how doctors treat women issues with a contraceptive pill (and it is just not in India). Not their fault, we don't have much data to refer to.

2. Shift focus on Male Contraception.
It makes more sense to remove bullets than move out people.

3. Inflation, poor life standards, lack of choices and pseudo feminists pushed women to earn a living.
While I 100% support financial independence, no one asked for support in household chores. Those are 24X7 jobs, and equally energy draining.
Yes, things are changing. Our generations' couples are well beyond but still needs fixing.

4. Make marriage & kids a choice and not norm or "next in plan" theory.
You want them? Cool!
You don't want them? Cool!

5. Talk about feminine health more.
Do not just write ass long LinkedIn posts dissing period leaves because you have fairly light ones. Also, periods are just one part. There are more steps and goes beyond reproductive age. Specific reasons why are mothers have suddenly been so cranky 

6. Schooling needs recentering.
You put kids in all-boys/girls schools to prevent "young distraction" and when they embrace non-binary relationships, you are upset over not following "culture".

7. Men & women CAN be friends.
Yes, there are higher chances of the relations going beyond or less, but not all opposite genders experience sexual tensions. This is why we aren't animals (most of us aren’t)

Was speaking to two of my friends (from GV) on this topic. One was supporting, and one against.

As a fellow female on Grapevine, I think it is not necessary. 
If only we stop treating women as second gender, and just see them as basic humans, a lot of things will change.

To let people have a safe space to voice opinions, does not need a secluded room.

So many of us are unaware of problems (physical, mental, emotional) others face, this platform does a great job in bringing all at one place.

Do we need separate community for women on Grapevine?

Also, men, why wouldn't you do this?

Discuss.

Men, why would you do this?

The whole truth. absolutely amazing protein bars

- A Polish study found men motivated by social status and competition are more likely to maintain facial hair.
- Facial hair serves as a self-presentation strategy to enhance social standing.
- Men with higher gender role stress and intrasexual competition invest more in their facial hair.
- The study involved 414 heterosexual men aged 18-40, assessing their social motives and facial hair care habits.
- Results suggest men use facial hair to signal masculinity and protect against gender role stress.

Study Unveils Why Men Really Care About Their Beards

Journalist

I met one of my college friends yesterday at a bar. She got married last year and was laying down the struggle of finding a new job. 

Now, apparently in many interviews when she reached the final few rounds, the HR or the Hiring Manager enquires about marital status and whether she has any children. 

When she mentions that she recently got married and that she does not have any kids, the company stops responding to her. 

She elaborated that although they might have found another fit for the role but she is a T-1 grad who did her Masters from an Ivy League college and has worked for 4-5 years in both NA+EMEA and India.

It is becoming more apparent to her that, HRs and Hiring Managers have a strong bias because they are definitely presuming that since she recently got married and will likely have a child soon, that she will use up her maternity privileges leading to significant productivity drop. Meaning, that the company will likely have to hire someone else to make up for productivity loss.

She does not plan to have kids for another 3-4 years but getting married is proving really hard for her. 
Especially in the Series B+ startups that she is applying to.

[Thread] Have you ever witnessed someone get discriminated against at work? Why do you think happened?

All these issues root from this being an employer market. We won’t see this as much in good times.

Objectifying men now 🤦‍♀️

I am a fresher 2023 graduate and have been doing this (applying for jobs) for almost a year, everyone said you have to do internships as it is necessary so did 2 internships one for a year and another for 6 months but apparently no one counts internships as experience even jobs that had 1-3 yoe as requirement and now everyone's hiring 2024 grads as freshers (I tried to look for another internship but there were none during the time of placements).

I am now tired of this field, many full stack devs don't know shit outside Javascript world and many of them can't even use tools like git properly and are so cocky of themselves. 

Saw an SDE on twitter who apparently has 6 years of experience, doesn't even know how to configure multiple SSH and says managing multiple ssh is a downside. A women dev (cause in India you have engineers and female engineers apparently) doesn't know about sidebar cache and calls it a bug and she's in google. and If I try to roast these people with my real name there's a whole cabal of Banglorians who will grab their macbooks inside third wave coffee and start tweeting against me after aggressively drinking their Chocolate mocha frappe.

Just go into any random tech twitter space no one seems to be talking about tech it's always about DSA, interviews, LIFE IN BANGLORE, which cafe they visited.

I let myself believe tech was my passion and worked hard  for but Indian techies and companies are worst, this generation thinks they are better than their predecessor but follow the same politics everywhere even when it comes to Tech communities (who tf does politics in a community that produces open source code wtf).

They talk about networking and creating a community all the time but can't even respond to linkedin cold dm and blame the sender by nitpicking about the format 👏👏 and then they'll go on post the screenshot and rant how it's the sender fault to even try to network with them with a message that isn't written from their own blood.

Tech rant

Bangalore tech scene is weird man. I feel even the auto driver knows how to code and the third wave barista is definitely doing leetcode because that coffee & sandwich clearly don't take 15 minutes to make

All of us at some point of time go through this phase, fortunately/unfortunately I am going through it too!

Just wanted to know from experienced people, how do you find the right person on the basis of just a few questions?

Or what questions you should preferably ask when you are choosing for a better half?

Choosing right partner in Arrange Marriage?

DevOps Engineer

Hi
In final year right now of my BE
My entire college life 
I am feeling left out
No friends, 
If I need something I ask my classmates
It feels odd
It feels week
Why as a MAN I am feeling such emotions

Even accepting the fact myself that path further ahead will be like this only
But still in mind, somewhere
I believe if I had someone to talk to
Someone to share everything I have
It would have been better
Yet again weak thoughts

How as MALE adults you overcome
Or you don't give a f*ck about it
More like "hey, I don't even have time to feel shit"

Pls throw some light on these thoughts
I am open to every discussion

Is feeling lonely, as a MAN, OK?

Just wanted to know what are some of the weirdest things you’ve seen your co workers do?


My co worker at a previous organisation used to take milk packets home which were  to be used in the coffee machines.

Assistant Manager

Grapevine in a Nutshell

I have had over 8-10 managers in my life in a career spanning over 8 years, 5 of them were female managers and unfortunately the experience with 4 of them were very bad. They’re either micro managers, or power hungry, want to be dominant over male juniors, misuse their power, cannot take any kind of resistance or refusals or disagreement from juniors.

I have always heard female managers are more empathetic but unfortunately I’ve faced the opposite. Just wondering, was it just bad luck or is it actually the case?

I tried to introspect in this and I found at least 4 points common across all these female managers:

1. They are all from Tier 2/3 Cities
2. They’ve studied in premier institutions IIT,IIMS,Wharton even one of them
3. They either have a younger or elder brother who got more love in the family
4. Their husband is at a higher senior level than them in professional life/career

Unpopular Opinion: Female Managers are Dominating

I have found females in corporate are much more opportunistic and shrewd than men. They think that is the only way to rise. Yet to encounter an empathetic female in jobs.
