any recommendations for sound dampening windows? I’ve done the google search but would appreciate recommendations / reviews - I live by the mid town tunnel and get a lot of traffic noise (15th floor)

look for a removable glass cover (it goes on the interior of your window).

try white noise (fan / air filter)

ears plugs.

or simply get ready to move. I moved and I now have leaf blowers blowing in the morning with neighbors dogs barking at night whenever someone walks by. I’m super sensitive to noise. 😅

In addition to what was said above, Honeycomb shades help too, in addition to sound dampening curtains.

Also, I found that anything else you can do to reduce echo inside your apt helps like rugs or sound absorbing panels. I use the panels in my office area now to help with noise from neighbors.

Was looking more for reviews of citywindows or similar brands

Hi Team,

TCS has released the offer letter for me & my doj is on 30th Jan which I chose. My current employer is ready to release me early and my lwd is 30th November.

I am confused whether I should join on 30th Jan or I should talk to HR for early joining. Also, there are rumours that Indian MNCs are cancelling offer letters due to recession and hence I am scared as I don't have any other offer in hand

What's the truth 🤔
