Happy Friday, folks! 37/M/DC/6’ here. Like to travel, hike, go to concerts, play basketball, and read. Looking for a potential match on the east coast (ideally), but willing to travel/relocate for the right woman. If any ladies here think that sounds good, my DMs are open. :)

Hi everyone
YOE: 3.10
Techstack: Java, Spring Boot, Microservices, AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes.

CCTC: 11.25 Fixed plus 5% variable.

Offers in hand
Product based companies
1. 19 LPA plus 6% variable
2. 21 LPA plus 6% variable

Service based
1. 22 LPA FIXED, 3 LPA joining bonus
2. 19 Fixed plus 15% variable

I would like to join a 1st product based company, and asked for a match to make at least 21 LPA Fixed.

According to my CCTC and techstack, am I overpaid?
I need advice and suggestions.

How many of you are actually looking for a relationship or have accepted being single forever?

Aaj aayega ki nahi? Was it a prank played on us??

This question might anger some, but not meant to be provoking. Does anyone else feel that half the jobs in tech (scrum master, project manager, product manager, etc.) are more hindering than helpful? I feel like productivity would sky rocket if we didn’t have 10+ hours a week added of admin work/agile ceremonies/status meetings, and you just let developers and analysts do their job. Why are we spending hours learning how to estimate story points (for example) rather than improving production?

Note down 5-10 top questions you wish you would ask (or you would have asked) your significant other before you commit (or committed) to marriage ?

If you mention your own ethnicity in the response , that'd help.

Being single in this quarantine is the worst thing ever. This could have been such a fantastic bonding time with our S/O (if only we had one 🤷‍♀️)

Hi there 🐠🐟, how y'all doing! F25 here based in Mumbai.

Is it me or you as well postponed the plans for marriage/ proposals if any? I feel Iike this is a good time to bond at least with texts,calls or an outdoor meet and talk anything except covid. Just doesn’t feel like the right mindset to think about marriage with what is going on.

Any pakis in the house???

What do you do when you meet someone who absolutely loves some bollywood movie you find cringe. Help 😒

A simple tip for the bowl, please don’t be thirsty. Respect people around you and know that you can not and will not date/marry everyone on this bowl or the world. Just try and seek honest connections

How's the weekend going for y'all?

Bhai yahan koi milta hai?
