@Kaju_Nut I cannot imagine how frustrating this must be. This reminds me of the DST travel support that PhD students can avail for international travel. Very harsh deadlines when submitting and similar situation when actually declaring results.

@Kaju_Nut With regard to finances, my source quipped, "Water, water, every where, Nor any drop to drink." :D

@Kaju_Nut I was recently told even amongst DAE institutes there is hierarchy. The ease with which TIFR can organise international conferences is completely different from even the other DAE institutes. The bureaucracy in all aspects (finances, permissions etc) is unbelievable.

I asked people who work on string theory/ holography about that one wow moment that sold them on the subject. Here are some of the responses 🧵

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@Kaju_Nut @dvijmankad Haha i think i know which paper this is about :D

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@ptweetsp @MasalaBai What exactly is the problem even if the account was public?

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@Duchiver @Lufthansa_USA @lufthansa I have come to know that my luggage has reached the destination airport.I was emailed 5 days ago by the @Lufthansa_USA asking whether I can pick it up since delivery will take longer, and I agreed to that.After that radio silence- no info on where and when to pick it up.Dismal!

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@Lufthansa_USA @lufthansa
It has been more than 24 hours since the flight #LH432 from FRA to ORD, on which #Lufthansa rebooked my checkin #luggage, has landed. No #delivery ticket for my bag generated yet and nobody answers the phone number on the #delayedbaggage report. Help!

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@lufthansa Here is another helpful tip for packing your bags: Don't fly @Lufthansa_USA . Baggage lost for a week, then located at destination airport and now they are not telling me when I can go pick up my bags (Delivery will take longer by their own admission)!

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@MamtaCarrollST @lufthansa @Lufthansa_DE My baggage report shows the EXACT status. I managed to get through to them ONCE on the phone and I was assured that my baggage is at my destination airport and I will be contacted for delivery. 2 days has passed since. Lies and nothing else!

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@moralesjj @043377001a @lufthansa I managed to get through to their number on the delayed baggage report. I was assured that the baggage is at my destination and I will be contacted soon regarding delivery! Needless to say 2 days have passed since. Should I be worried now about even the initial claim?!

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@Lufthansa_USA @Lufthansa_USA Five days since my luggage is missing. Neither I am able to get through to your customer care service nor have you guys reached out to me. What you are doing is criminal and you should be sued for it.

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@draper_clair @aderwy Ah i see. I was assuming an email id for @Lufthansa_USA. I asked O'Hare airport for guidance - they literally told me to come and ask Lufthansa officials face to face. The situation seems to be pretty common.

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@isatroconis @Lufthansa_DE @MUC_Airport @lufthansaNews @lufthansa Just to ask, did you eventually get back your luggage? I am on the same boat with the delayed report showing the same status (Bag has been located blah blah). Apart from the non-functioning phone number they give in the report, where else can I inquire?

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@draper_clair @aderwy I am on a similar boat but my delayed baggage report doesn't seem to have an email! only a phone number which one cannot get through!

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@lufthansa @SibaAtSea @Lufthansa_DE @Lufthansa_USA I have already sent an email via your feedback form to no avail. Please suggest practical options, ones which actually work!

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@Lufthansa_USA PLEASE come up with a better solution than these! It took me an entire day yesterday to get through to the phone number on the report just ONCE and I already have this link- it just tells me what I already know! I cannot spend an entire day navigating through YOUR mess!

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@SibaAtSea @lufthansa @Lufthansa_DE @Lufthansa_USA Which email do i use? They said in the delay report that emails will not be entertained.

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@SibaAtSea @lufthansa @Lufthansa_DE @Lufthansa_USA Oh yes! It has been over 24 hours since the flight, carrying my luggage, landed. It took me an entire day yesterday to get through to the @Lufthansa_USA to find out they also don't know why delivery ticket has not been issued yet. Essentially it seems they have lost it.

[subham_dc @DcSubham]

@SibaAtSea @lufthansa @Lufthansa_DE I see! Maybe my efforts are better spent trying to contact the O'Hare ground staff then. Clearly @Lufthansa_USA has no clue what to do and for the most part unwilling to do their part.
