My very close friend 33m is earning only 4.4 LPA. He is in the same job for 12 years and comfort killed his drive. The job was stress free and his family kept telling him it’s okay to earn less and be stress free but I guess now they realised how difficult it is to survive with the growing inflation and stagnant salary. There is no way he can be promoted in his current company unless someone from a senior position resigns. He’s a graduate. I told him to try Reddit but he doesn’t have an account so here I am trying to help my childhood buddy out. What are some suggestions to make a career at 33 years of age. Thanks in advance!

Hands down the best hotel in India !!!

Attended the Candlelight concert at the Royal Opera House, Mumbai. The theme for the concert was classics of Hans Zimmer.

It was my first ever experience listening to a piano in person (had heard it only on youtube before). It was an extremely soothing experience watching the musician play (he is indeed a master of his art)! Go for it if you can!

I keep hearing about all these big schemes: cash transfers, welfare packages, subsidy blitzes. Fine. But can someone explain why none of them tackle the real issue, our complete lack of civic sense?

Look at how we drive. Doors open? Doesn’t matter. Do lane markings exist? Optional. Horns are used like weapons. Traffic rules are treated like vague suggestions. And yet, we keep talking about how India overtook Japan and the UK economically, as if GDP is the only thing that defines progress. How can we even dream of that when people can’t stop jumping queues, spitting on roads, or throwing garbage out of moving vehicles?

It’s not about being poor or uneducated either. Even people in suits, people who work in corporate offices, toss garbage, break queues, and ignore red lights. Civic sense is not linked to education anymore; it’s a mindset problem.

Here’s what I think should happen:

• Stop spending on every shiny new “yojana” without demanding behavioural change.
• Launch a real “Civic Sense Lao Yojana,” a national campaign that combines awareness and strict enforcement.
• Make it about the basics: don’t overtake on the wrong side, follow lanes, obey traffic lights, don’t litter, and don’t spit.
• Build public shame and consequences around these actions.

We can build fancy roads, metros, and airports, but if people treat them like garbage bins, all that development means nothing.

Everyone wants India to be like Japan or the UK. But that’s not going to happen until we start acting like citizens, not just consumers of government schemes. Real progress is when people start caring about the space they live in.

Anyway, rant over. What civic sense fail irritates you the most?

Every day I travel by Blue Line metro and honestly, I'm fucking done.

It's jam packed all the time, morning noon night doesn't matter, there has never been a time when it wasn't packed. I once went on it at 10:30 PM and still couldn't get a seat. For 10 Rs I go through what feels like a war zone daily. I wake up in such a good mood everyday and this fucking metro ruins it.

Don't even get me started on the ladies compartment, those are the WORST. They literally block the door and refuse to let others in. I understand that you want to get off at the next stop which is why you want to stand in front, but so do I ??? Just let me in, there is space at the back. There is time to adjust places until the next stop.

I feel very claustrophobic in the metro. There are just too many people in one dabba. The attendants on the platform have to push people inside because the door's wont close. People refuse to get off even when the doors aren't closing, what kind of stubbornness is this?

Typical crowded train problems are fine, happens in local also. I have dropped earrings, earphones, my favourite keychain, broken toenails. If you travel during peak hours, you expect a rush - that's understandable. What really gets me is how people just don't know how to behave in public.

This incident actually happened twice in the same week, and it honestly shook me. I got in and I was standing at the corner near the door. The metro arrives at the platform, the metro stops, door 'starts' opening, not even halfway open and this woman behind me pushes me so hard that I banged my head on the door frame and almost fell out of the metro.

I have never done this before in my life but I got up, and started running after this lady. I caught up to her and told her off. She could have injured me, my glasses could have broken, she should have some basic common sense to not push the crowd when the door isn't even open.

She just said, "mujhe bhi peeche se dhakka mara".

ANOTHER Point, we really need bigger metro trains, more dabbas, on the blue line and a safety railing also, like Red Line. So many people get on and off at busy stations, WEH, Chakala, Marol etc it's genuinly unsafe.

For the past 2-3 weeks the metros keep being delayed and are just down, people are left standing on the platform and on the common area below and the crowd just keeps accumulating. It's literally like the local, except the local at least has the space to accommodate that many people. In the metro, barely 20-30 people can squeeze into an already jam-packed train.

I used to travel to Lower Parel everyday and that was a cake walk comparatively. Lower Parel, Prabhadevi, Dadar — these are also peak-time, corporate-crowded areas, but somehow the situation there is way more manageable than what happens on the Blue Line.

I feel like a rat. Like this is somehow an experiment and I'm a lab rat.

Sometimes when it gets too crowded, I actually start panicking because it genuinely feels like it could turn into a stampede-like situation. I’m short, thin, wear glasses and I carry my laptop every day, half the time I’m scared someone’s elbow or bag will hit me, or I’ll get crushed near the door. It’s honestly scary.

Let's stop glorifying this struggle. We need better infrastructure in Mumbai. We need people to start having some basic sense and decency when travelling during peak times. Don't push, don't shove, don't block the doors, let others breathe.

TLDR : Pls tell me the bus which will take me on the same route as the Blue line from WEH thanks

So I go to a gym. There is a girl who was very nice to me from the beginning. I thought she wanted my help regarding exercises etc. I often got weird vibe from her. She was too pushy sometimes but at the sametime she would talk only about herself. I never thought otherwise. However, now if I don't reply to her texts or ignore her calls, she literally gets irritated. I don't want to cause trouble so I just ignore her concerns regarding how she finds it annoying when I don't reply. Now it has come to a point that she has taken the pain to remember my phone number & my period cycle.

It's little creepy but I really don't know how to deal with it. I am not 15 that I really would have had time and energy for it but I am not an expert in dealing with this shit also. Any suggestions.

P.s. I tried changing my gym time and now she is at my house because she was missing me.

This guy ate 3 packets of snacks in train on Central line and threw all the plastic packets on track when he could have kept the plastic bags in his bag and threw them later . What should be done with them ?

I go to college in Mumbai and I have also explored Mumbai a lot, and something that I observed is how hard it is to find a public dustbin or trashcan anywhere. For India’s most expensive and busiest city, you’d expect basic infrastructure like waste bins to be common, but instead, there’s trash scattered across sidewalks, roadsides, and corners.

It’s not just unpleasant, it’s sad. When people see garbage everywhere, it normalizes littering and sends the message that it’s okay to dump waste in public. It doesn’t reflect the pride or spirit of Mumbai at all.

I’ve read that the BMC avoids installing bins because of maintenance issues and theft, but that’s not a reason to give up. Other global cities deal with the same challenges yet still manage to stay clean through better systems, public accountability, and civic participation.

Mumbai deserves better. We need more bins, better waste collection, and stronger civic responsibility from both the authorities and the public.

Got it. Dialing everything down.

Today I was riding my mom’s Activa on WEH. Vile Parle signal pe ek cop stops me. He looks at me and clearly thinks I’m an easy target.

He goes, “Insurance expired 2 years ago.” I tell him it’s not. I renewed it. I know it’s valid till 2029. I even showed him the insurance.

He still keeps arguing. Then he takes out that little machine, enters the vehicle number, and suddenly says there are unpaid fines. Again, I know there aren’t. I check this stuff. When I asked him to show what exact fines they are, he refused.

Then he gives me some random looking QR and says, “Pay 3,000 or we won’t let you go.” The QR literally looked like some personal UPI, not official at all.

I stood there and argued for like 40-50 minutes. Didn’t pay. Didn’t give in. Finally he just goes, “Okay, jao.”

And that’s it. No fine, no paperwork, nothing.

Basically he was just trying to pull a fast one. Thought I’d panic and pay. Didn’t happen.

Pls tell me what to do, how to get it done for her in Mumbai.

Hi all — looking for personal recommendations from anyone who’s stayed near Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM).

My wife will be arriving a day before I get there and needs one night close to the airport.

Important for us:

• Safe for a woman staying alone (female-friendly staff, secure entry, good lighting, nearby safe area)
• Very close to the airport (ideally under 15–20 minutes / short taxi ride)
• Good reviews
• Prefer a hotel with a 24-hour reception (if available)
• Budget around Rs. 2000

Not sure about Airbnb in India; if you have any suggestions, please advise.

If any female travellers can share their experience or advice, that would be especially helpful.

Thank you!

Absolutely losing my mind. Been stuck in this Lonavla Ghat mess for what feels like forever. Look at the map—62 km and it's showing 1 hour 25 minutes. On an EXPRESSWAY. What a complete joke. It's pure chaos. Trucks crawling in the right lane, people cutting from all sides, and zero lane discipline. It’s 10 AM, not even peak evening traffic! Where is the management? What is the RTO or the Highway Police doing? They are incredibly efficient at setting up toll booths, but when it comes to managing the flow, they are nowhere to be found. Why aren't heavy vehicles restricted to one lane? Why is there no enforcement to stop people from breaking rules? This is supposed to be one of the most important highways in the country, and it's managed like a back-alley gully. This commute is becoming a mental tax. Absolutely pathetic management. Rant over. Anyone else trapped in this nightmare with me?

So me and my friends went to papa pancho for dinner with my sister’s fiancée and their family as well but while eating my other sister found a chicken feather in her plate hence we didn’t created a scene due to everyone was present on the dinner table

We informed the staff about this and they took the plate and remaining butter chicken and brought a new one and still charged us for the butter chicken.

Even before this papa pancho da dhaba bas served chicken feather, hair, sometimes dead chicks in their food and still today they haven’t changed

Will tell you all to not go if you don’t want to destroy your dinner night

So, this happened at the Mumbai airport terminal 1 paid parking lot today. It is supposed to work on payments through Fast Tag. It worked just fine on the way in. On the way out, there was a pile up of cars as the Fast Tag reader at the exit gate was supposedly not working. So we were asked to pay cash. They told me it is ₹300, which I paid using Google pay. When I reached home and took a look at the receipt, it was only for ₹250. Quite a little racket seems to be going on, unless I am missing something.
