Because America is soft

Maybe depends on what you are buying
You can buy hard (firm/extra firm) in the US also.

because they are made from Jute.

Same. Makes me want to change my mattress in US

😀

They are definitely not made the same way, much more cushion, and larger size here, also quieter springs, fluffier pillows, and softer sheets

The other way to see this is the mattresses here in US are generally soft. If you like the firmness of Indian mattresses, you’ll have to buy extra firm mattress here in US. I personally do not like the feeling of drowning in the soft mattresses in US.

@EY2- which mattress from Ikea did you buy ?

In Jan of this year I was hired on as a new mortgage loan originator. We renegotiated my salary in April to $55K. I recently learned that banks here in my area are hiring brand new, low experience LO’s for $70K. The market is slow but I’ve been very consistent in what I’m bringing in and closing. My supervisor has stated we will be doing my review and salary discussion to be effective 1/1/23. I was going to ask for $75K but I’ve been told I should ask for $80K-$85K. Thoughts? Advice?

SO and I got in to a disagreement on the background of Indian tech CEOs. It appears that they are all from 1 or 2 major communities in India.

While he thinks that its genetics/being naturally gifted that got them to where they are I believe it's the environment & discipline that made them successful. We are not from said communities but curious to hear your thoughts on who is more accurate.

Why is everyone here so triggered by the White Tiger? That’s how the majority of India lives, please get outside your white collar bubbles. And stop saying “the media always shows poverty”, they also released shows like Bollywood Wives and Indian Matchmaking.
