How’s your monday going?

Anyone on the same boat as me?🤦🏻‍♀️

What can be done on a long weekend? Any suggestions,what's your plans?

I am doing work from home from last 2 year and it's pretty good but my entire friend circle has moved to their office location delhi, blr aur Bombay and my college friends also got split into different cities Sure, we catch up during occasional visits or hometown hangouts and trips, but most days, it's just me, myself, and my laptop. I've tried moving to Bangalore and stayed couple of months, but traffic take lot of time to just meet friends and people are mostly into over work and then just drinking and smoking and don't want to talk about flats, transport and other problem so whoever doing work from home from their hometown, how do you deal with this my hometown is tier 3 city and routine is kind of wake up, coding, gym, movies or anime or leetcode and sleep

Am I the only one who likes working from office (Bengaluru)? I go to office every day, and it helps me to be more productive. - There will be no distractions - Team mates will be around, and if there is any queries, I can straight away ask them rather than typing a message or setting up a call - Occasional chit chats - Having lunch together - being a part of all the conversations happening - Managers works from office - a good rapport with him as well - Free food - Free Transport (can mates - another plus point) - Good work set-up - Meet new people almost every day - Build/deepen real connections every day - Interact with folks starting from entey level to senior directors or VPs regularly (L1 - L9 is the range mentioned here) FYI: I moved to Bengaluru for work, although I've the option to work completely remote. One of my team member even mentioned that he has not yet been able to connect with the team member who has joined before me, like how he could connect with me. I understand that once people have family, it will be difficult to manage everything. One of my team mate actually mentioned that, he used to do/manage everything properly before Covid, but it's kind of not easy/lazy since Covid. I also realise that not everyone has the above perks, but still. Commute can be an issue. I travel 50+ KMs every day to and fro. I start by 7 am in the morning to morning traffic, and take around 75 minutes in the evening (I can survive the traffic without having to use my mobile 😂) I do miss my family frequently, but I do have the flexibility to go home and stay a few days when I want. Staying alone in a service apartment is the only disadvantage as of now.

Do people have holidays or WFH today due to elections in Bangalore.

Goooood Friday Saturday Sunday

Hello everyone! 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!

Hey mere angoor dharu walon, Somebody tell me how's BCG-X for software engineers? Heard a lot of negative reviews but still giving it a second thought because of the brand.
