They charge by the minute for consultations. I had a bad experience with them and think they might have many fake astrologers. 🤔

Sneha Debnath. 19 years old. Math student at DU. Doing a course with IIT Madras. Interning with an Australian firm.

She came from Tripura to Delhi with dreams bigger than her age. Studying hard, earning her own money, never asking anyone for help. Her LinkedIn said she loved maths, computers, and anime. Just a normal, brilliant girl chasing a better life.
 
Yesterday, she was found dead in the Yamuna.
Her family called her an “overachiever.” But behind that word is a painful reality, of a generation that feels they must do everything, all at once, just to feel “enough.” Two courses. One job. One life. No time to breathe. And nobody really asks: Are you okay?
 
How many Snehas are quietly drowning in expectations right now?

This isn’t just tragic, it’s terrifying. If a girl this talented, this driven, couldn’t find space to be heard, what does that say about us?

Interview Tips & Stories

I walked out of an interview today. This was my third interview with the company. Interviewer goes on to mention there's a fourth interview with the manager and I said nope. I stood up, and said "you've met me 3 times already and should know if you want to hire me at this point. I am not doing a 4th interview." She was shocked. I wish I took a picture of the look on her face. She kept saying, "but I really like you." And, "no one's ever done this before." Nope, don't care.

Walked out of an interview today

Mumbai got slammed with 100mm+ rain in just 12 hours. IMD's issued an orange alert, Metro Line 3 is down, roads are basically rivers, and the local trains are crawling. A lot of offices are half-empty or fully remote today some companies even let employees crash at work overnight.

And honestly, today was a mess for me too.
Left home at 8:30 AM thinking I could beat the rush. Got stuck at Sion for over an hour, water halfway up my legs. Auto guy ditched me mid-route, and I ended up walking 3 km just to reach an office that had 4 people and no Wi-Fi because of a power cut. 😩

Lesson learned: Never underestimate Mumbai rains, and always keep an extra pair of socks.

Anyone else go through this chaos today? Or did you wisely choose to WFH?

Rained all night in Mumbai! offices half empty today

Day to Day Office

Don't you think this is too much for a virtual meeting?
Let’s be real...after 45 mins, no one’s really focusing.
3 hours on a screen with no break? Mental shutdown guaranteed.

3hrs in a virtual meeting!!! too much

Remember Rishi Sunak?

Yep the former UK Prime Minister. He’s now making headlines again, but this time not in politics.

He’s joining Goldman Sachs as a senior advisor the same company he once worked at 21 years ago!

What will he do now?

Basically, he’ll be helping clients understand big-picture stuff like geopolitical risks, global economy trends, and will also be interacting with people and leaders around the world.

It’s like he's going back to his finance roots but with a lot more experience this time.

From running a whole country to advising one of the world’s biggest banks. not a small switch 

What do you think?

Should more politicians go back to the private sector? Or is this just another power circle move?
