Why is getting employed so difficult? I've been unemployed since graduation and I'm didn't even get any internship. I have applied for tons.

Fellow Chennaiites, do you add ghee instead of oil. Is nei/ghee worse than oil or no difference? Ps, adding lot of "chennai" keywords or else mods like to remove your post. :1984: 1 6 replies

How to ask women 2 wheeler riders to not drive on the right side of the road, without getting into trouble? I don't know what kind of genius-level thinking has convinced them that it's right and safe to drive slowly on the far-right side of the road. These women riders don't realize they're narrowly avoiding being hit by every other car behind them. No one warns or advises them because most men avoid engaging with women on the road. 4 12 replies
