Pothole economy

Generalist

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! 🙏🏻

Bangaluru has the highest number of cars in India, overtakes Delhi.

Pune has worse traffic than Delhi or Bombay? Is this really true? 🤔

Cities with slowest traffic

Growth and strategy

May be we need to create a group to fill in potholes on the road, so that the deputy cm instructs bbmp to take action. Also as a deligent tax payer, i also learned that we also have to remind gov orgs to do their duty for which they are paid for from tax payer money.

Finally found a way to get attention of the officials

Any news on who is getting it, what's like an average payout for eligible employees? As per the news article, approx 19000 employees are getting it. Anyone has insider info?

Inspite of so many "better than earlier govts" reforms in the last 10 years...the govt hasnt done much needed reforms in the income tax regime.

The govt is doing a few good things like dissolving inept psu's, selling off entities like Air India (privatisation), etc.
But when and how  are we going to increase the tax base?? Why is govt failing to do so? It is high time we rationalise it. We cannot dream of becoming a prosperous country with such poor policies in place

I have lives in a lot of cities, both tier 1 and tier 2. But nowhere have i seen road quality as pathetic as in Bangalore. Even remote villages in UP have better paved roads. And living in Delhi, I had almost forgotten that potholes still exist. I really want to understand how the silicon valley of India has completely failed at building even an average level road infrastructure? Is it due to corruption or something else that we don’t know of?

Why does Bangalore have such pathetic roads?

I just want to vent out! Many businesses are earning double than me and paying less than 50% of tax and yet here I am as a professional bound to pay tax. And that’s not enough, I still can get audited!

Paying 29L as tax this year!!

I was reading some news and found out that the government has proposed a 190km underground tunnel to ease traffic.
Do you think these projects can actually come into life in india? Or is it going to be another vote bank stunt

You really think Bangalore traffic can’t get worse. Like no way right?! aaaand the city just shows you the finger. 

Main road what? Service road who?

Cities that have one sinkhole can have multiple sinkholes as well. I am now scared. Bangalore often has had a sinkhole problem if you look through the history

Bengaluru commuters were left startled on Monday evening when a seven-foot deep sinkhole was seen on a road at the Kensington signal junction in the city

7-foot deep sinkhole opens up in the middle of Bengaluru road

This is really scary because it can happen again

I was doing a tax plan for the next FY. 

A significant chunk is going off my hard earned money 😔 for which I get 🔔 from govt. 

I hardly use any public facilities , or can simply  say they do not exist and are not up to mark 

Any Tom and harry comes and starts  freebies for his noble cause of votes which tax payers like me are not eligible to be benefitted  even if I want to take any . 

Why the heck I have been taxed so much . 

Even if you get variable pay this month which was already taxed with TDS and If I invest in MF lumpsum  and get some gains . The whole amount will again be taxed that too according to my tax bracket .

Although I am not considering indirect taxation which is another curse we all are facing . 

Is everyone pissed with this tax story or simply ignore and move on to pay more tax and grind more .

When I was doing my masters in economics last year, I met a girl. I was instantly attracted to her, however never got a chance to ask her out. Eventually I did, and we went out a couple of times. I really liked her but I think she considered me a good friend. I got mixed messages from her. Once, she sends me text messages in the middle of the night asking me to take her to lunch tomorrow and another she doesn't reply back to me. Anyway I persisted but eventually she kinda distanced herself from the relationship after we hooked up. I had fallen for her but she wanted no part of anything. Didn't return my calls or texts, or when she did made up excuses to avoid hanging out. 

So I told her how I felt. She was angry at me for ruining our friendship even though we hooked up, which she instigated. I never saw her again for the 3 months( she went to Delhi for some work) but she called me occasionally if she needed to talk or something.

So she left and we remained in touch via Whatsapp. On one occasion, I made a passing joke as to how she spent time with every dude there but me. She became very offended and we stopped communication. She started it up again but didn't apologise.

Finally, I actually visited Delhi because another friend of mine was getting married and invited me. I didn't visit her because of time constraints and she became pissed, and wouldn't talk to me, accusing me of doing it on purpose. That was 6 months ago.

I'm going to a friends birthday soon and she's gonna be there. 

Would it be bad for me to hold the grudge? Or should I just let it go.

Bear in mind, she avoided me whilst hanging out with others and then accuses me of avoiding her.
I don't wanna be a douche but I don't wanna be a pushover, someone who can call me whenever and I'll come running.

Please help Grapevine! 🙏🏻
