Where is everyone from? When and how did Whiskey get you? I wonder about the age range here too since there are quite a few of us. I'm a 45-year-old Whiskey enthusiast who nicked a bottle from my dad's liquor cabinet when I was 15, and that was that.

28, from Boston. I'm Lebanese and for whatever reason, the Arabs love JW black label. It's like our water lol so I grew up on that during my teen years. Then one Christmas a few years ago my FIL got me a variety pack of 3 different whiskeys/scotch/bourbon and ever since I've just been exploring different bottles and growing my collection.

30, East Texas, Bourbon just feels like part of the culture. All the adults around me drank Jim Beam when I was growing up.

I have actually heard this same sentiment from friends who live or grew up in TX lol.

30s from Pakistan. Started with Ballantines, J&B and Johnnie Walker Red in my late teens. Switched to JW Black soon after.

The rest has been a super delicious and fulfilling journey. Now I stick to select Japanese blends, single malts and high rye bourbons.

31, live in England but Scottish family. Spent a lot of time in Scotland and went to a whisky tasting when I was there with my girlfriend (now wife) when we were at university.

Before that had not been interested. We drink a lot as teenagers here but that was just beer.

like

38, been drinking whiskey, scotch, and any brown liquor since I was 16. My dad got me into it; we lived abroad at the time and the drinking age was either non existent or around 16.

28, the Midwest is just beer and bourbon so that’s what I naturally experienced early on. I’ve explored other spirits but still gravitate toward bourbon

Hello Fishes,
One query, I have received an offer letter from Wipro (Career Group: C1) with package of 28 LPA, out of which INR 420000 is allocated as 'Variable Pay' which will be paid on quarterly basis'. Need to know how much % would generally be paid out? Is it 100% or less as per the individual/organization performance.

Advice: my firm incentivized associates to get licensed in fed courts - 4 fed courts for a 5k raise. They also covered the admission fee. I just accepted an offer with another firm and will be putting in my 2 weeks notice tomorrow. Is it wrong to submit an expense report for the charges I incurred related to the fed court admission fees? I didn’t plan on moving to another firm; the new firm sought me out and made me an offer - the process happened so fast. I want to be professional about this.
