A very important thing to learn
I am still learning it (how to empathise with and support your loved ones without you being emotionally charged, which will also allow you to help them better)
Thinking about starting a startup
Hello highly experienced people of grapevine, I am a 21 yo Final Year student pursuing EnTC engineering in Pune. I will get placed as either Cognizant Genc Pro, TCS Prime or Oracle Tech Consultant Trainee (these are my upcoming interviews) But apart from that, I am the typical GenZ kid who doesn't want to work and has a passion for making YouTube videos. I learned software development to get a job and now that I have this skill in my arsenal, after a long thinking session I decided why not start a software company to make astronomically high amounts of money than any job in the world. And earn it once and then live off of it and returns made from investing it forever. Obviously I know that I am not going to be an overnight success, but I want to use software development to make myself a very wealthy person by selling my startup once it grows rather than coding till 60. I am willing to do this on my own and want to create a company strictly in the software domain. Basically writing code in my pajamas. So any advice/warning/interests you can share with me would be awesome since people here have a ton of experience. Thank you and I hope my to be interviewers aren't reading this.
Took a flight this weekend. Realised something today.
I went home on Friday Finally after 4 months of boring adtech sprints and life, took a break. Today was Day 1 back at work. I was in my hometown for a while doing normal stuffs. i returned on Sunday and then started thinking. Here is the summary. 1. Lots of middle class guilt in my head. Every flight ticket would attract 1000s of questions from parents 2. Most train journeys require high patience - 30+ hours 3. Traveling and finding time to rest is tough. 4. Booked direct flight, took cab from airport, paid for extra legroom (very low availability), Ordered on swiggy, bought airport coffee(worst of all), Uber 5. Sleeper trains are the worst - gave side upper berths and ghosted by TT after getting waitlist. Had to follow up multiple times but to no avail. They ate my whole 2 days 6. Some flights were different - in one I had to board very fast. That's it. Wasn't sleeping as I was looking up for turbulence on internet. 7. Overall growing up it was a very boring and tiring process. I somehow maintained my sanity. Buying time is just a basic adult necessity now. YoE- 4 TC- 42L ( Base +Bonus)
