New launch: What's popping at work?

Hey Folks, Super happy to share that we've rolled out a beta of 'Pops' - messages that disappear in 48 hours to 17 companies on Grapevine Why did we make this? 1. Grapevine 'posts' are great for detailed discussions, but we also wanted to create a product where its super easy to share something that's happening real time 2. We believe newer content types will help capture more of the actual company 'grapevine' which happens offline every day 3. We always wanted to create a product where time-to-post was less than 10 seconds Hope you get a chance to check this product out. It's now avaiiable on your company's private group. Please do share any feedback on the same that you may have!

<Rant on Bewakoof.com> Employees got nothing for their ESOPs

So Bewakoof got acquired by Aditya Birla group and sent a mail to employees that their ESOPs are now worthless “as determined by the board.” I mean, I know what they’re doing is completely legal, they must have covered themselves with escape clauses, but how are founders okay with this? They basically ripped off and wiped off the wealth of the very employees that worked for them for years. Shameful, man! Never buying from this shit company again. Not that it will matter, but won’t give a penny to this hideous organization.

[25M]Being ugly, my experience of 25 years.

Age 25 Brown skin - all my cousins are white, even my own family Height 5 11, not even close to my cousins who are atleast 6 2, my younger brother is in class 12th, and he is 6 3 Dating aspects - For my whole life I lived in Punjab, even the average guy here looks like the one you saw on reels. They are from a decent background with good financial support. I approached 12 girls in my life. All rejected me. Everytime approaching the other gender was hard. 3 made fun of my appearance infront of the hole class and 1 made me look like a fool infront of the whole department. Friendships - your true friends will be there for your behaviour and your vibe. But my friend friends never liked me. They always looked down on me, that is what I always felt. I wasn't invited in group hangouts. Relatives - I was treated differently as compared to my brother by my own massis, mamiis and female cousins. I accepted this and maintained a low profile among them. Some of my male cousins always treated us as blood brothers, which I appreciate.Even my younger cousins, boys and girls both always acted joyful with me. I loved spending time with them. College - Things changed, improved but never better, I avoided interaction with the other gender because of my looks and their power of influencing the matter if it goes south. I worked on my health, body(gym) and studies. I always felt lonely here and struggled with friendships, even among male Batchmates. I was treated with a warm hi whenever I met anyone, but there was no actual Friendship. I was vigilant enough to even call out someone's dual behaviour, could be one of the reasons. Dating apps - zero matches throughout years. Now what I feel. It's hardly by any chance the future will be any different. I will still be rejected by other gender, doesn't matter how many muscles I gain. In corporate it isn't advised to get into any friendly relationship with female colleagues as it can cause issues. My parents gave me a disclaimer a lot earlier that due to their disputes among relatives, arrange marriage via a trusted route is not possible. I am on my own. For now I only work, gym and study. I explore and sometimes travel. That is all I have. For now I am finding peace with it.
