What kryptonite is to Superman… 90 days notice period is to Job Seekers

If they touch you too soon, they die. If you touch them too soon, you die. I mean.. why should an ORG wait this long? right? Sure he/she will offer shop ..right? 90 days = Next candidate please = That's the general operating plan so basically you are on .. 60 days of senseless waiting.. no calls.. so then you (as a candidate) have to lie.. that you notice period is 30 days just to get a call.. you think you will explain the notice period.. but then they ask about your notice period.. and then they call you out for lying and then you are put on spot.. AGAIN soon.. you realise.. your notice period is ending.. and you don't have a job in hand... now when you reach out - they question your choices - Why you left without an offer - must be something wrong in the candidate soon you realise you are "too desperate" there is gap accumulating on your resume So you start cooking up reasons to look genuine - I'm taking a break for health reasons - I needed time to upskill etc etc soon you realise those reasons are not sticking.. so now you are contemplating if to take pay cut just not END the gap on your resume You know why these folks are desperate, stuck as hell - cause NO ONE WAS F***ING hiring them in the first place.. But hey - as an org please please please still continue to want people to join immediately while proudly enforcing your own 90-day notice policy - For retention and knowledge transfer right? Maybe the first thing the Indian recruitment scene needs to do - institutionally, centrally, unapologetically - is kill the 90-day notice period. But maybe its just me vying for that. To everyone stuck in that 90-day hell: You are not lazy. You are not broken. You are not unworthy. You're just living in a system designed to delay you - then blame you for being delayed. Maybe you should stop playing fair from now on.

[Thread] Has anyone wondered how things got popular in the pre-Internet era? ✅

Think Tippy Tippy Tap or the Superman S, how is it that all of us remember them? Was just discussing with my SO, about how somethings during our school days were really popular but there was no Internet to purport virality. Even FLAMES or Truth/Dare. Like there has to be a genesis of these trends right? I can already imagine some kid coming up with ideas like this and they caught on so hard, that word of mouth travelled far and wide. Especially, something like Truth/Dare or Superman S, most kids in India know about it and it is a common cultural thing across the globe as well. What do you think? Does anything else come in mind?

Did your dad ever ask you if he needed you for something?

Women's Day - Yeah, the world will celebrate in a grand manner Men's Day - What's that? Mother's Day - Oh yeah! better than Women's Day! Father's Day - Perhaps, it's the only day where MEN, at least, celebrate but cry silently inside with their whole hearts if they were wished. Just like one of Superman's powers, they could see what their kids go through, even without hearing a word. Recently, it occurred to me that, I have not achieved anything close to what my father did when he was my age. While I shared this scary feeling with a friend, they just consoled me that our fathers went through far different situations and they didn't have a choice other than deliberately working harder without making any excuses, which makes us stand with more comfort. Yes, they worked hard for OUR future rather than their well-being, such was the mindset of their generation even before we were born. While, we, hmmm, not going to talk about ourselves, we just need to look at ourselves in the mirror. While I see posts on Father's Day by not-so-introverts and also while I post this on grapevine, I am still figuring out a way to wish him without letting him know what I am going through (introvert problems). Fathers just watch their kids no matter where they are, even from the skies. Here's wishing the new fathers, fathers, old fathers a very very Happy Father's Day :) Damn! I found only 2 pictures of JUST me and my dad, one in 2018 & other in 2016 (selfies). I took literally 20 minutes to search if there are any. By the way, my dad once said he needed me with him & I couldn't figure it out.
