People who were already working in the Data center domain, how secured they must be feeling now, with all the chaos around, they must be sleeping peacefully!

Microsoft's voluntary exit package is a masterclass in why job hopping is not always the smartest career move.
The package offered for Indian employees : 3 months base pay plus 1 month for every year of service.
Do the math.
Someone who joined Microsoft 8 years ago is walking out with 11 months of salary in hand. That is nearly a full year of runway. Enough time to find the right next role without desperation. Enough capital to start something of your own. Enough breathing room to actually think.
Someone who switched every 2 years chasing a 30% salary hike is walking out with 5 months. Maybe less.
Yes the job hopper probably earned more along the way. But they also gave up something the market rarely values until a moment like this arrives. Tenure. Loyalty. The compound interest of staying.
The Indian tech industry spent a decade glorifying switching. Every LinkedIn post was about how someone left Company A for a 40% hike at Company B. Nobody talked about what they left behind.
Severance packages, vesting schedules, pension benefits, long service awards. These are not relics of a boring corporate life. They are the financial reward for the people who stayed when everyone else was leaving.
The next time someone tells you that you are leaving money on the table by not switching, show them this Microsoft math.
Stability has a price. It also has a payout.
i am no longer afraid of things falling apart. i have seen what happens after the worst of it. the sun still rises, people still laugh, new things still begin, and one day, you find yourself happy about something you once thought you would never recover from.

Lost 2 of my cousin brothers, aged 29 and 27 years old, the elder one was having marriage discussion and was planning to get married by April 27.
Life is so brutal, don't even know how our family is going to take this loss.
Imagine being stressed about things going on in your life, minding your own business, paying the most beautiful taxes to the government and then getting this beautiful service in return, lovely start to the day!
I remember as a kid when my bade Papa was into the transportation business and everytime we got to know that one of his trucks would be passing by this route, all of our cousins used to be so excited as we were very assured that he would get us this sweet delivered, good old days
Literally no one knows this about me but my favourite is Chhena Poda; which originates from Odisha; only recently started selling in Ranchi. This heck of a sweetdish is not available everywhere. This is an excellent Indian Cheesecake I would say.
