  • outright caste based racism I saw amongst Indian actual employees vs Indian contractors

    I worked at the Comcast Center back when Comcast was building a new skyscraper two blocks away. The reason for this new building was that the CC had become jam-packed with InfoSys contractors, like literally five or six developers jammed into one-person offices, floor after floor after floor. The executives – a majority of whom were Indian-American – wanted to see a lot fewer Indians around their headquarters (and they talked about this openly) so they built an entire new building to house them.





  • I really wish making food was a more viable commercial option. A few years ago I looked into setting up a food truck and holy shit are those things expensive. I occasionally go to food-truck-athons and even with how insanely overpriced their offerings are, I don’t see how they can ever be profitable. Around where I live, you can’t even get permits for a food truck unless you’re associated with a physical restaurant.
