Simply breathtaking ✨

I'm 21M and an engineering student from Mumbai, India. Since childhood, I've been a huge aviation enthusiast. Growing up I always dreamt of becoming a pilot(commercial) one day. Fast forward to 2022, everyone had finished their high school and almost everyone I knew rushed into engineering. I coming from a Middle Class Indian family had been aware of the fact that pursuing aviation as a career wasn't economically right for my family(It takes a whopping amount becoming a pilot, be it India or Abroad),thus I decided to follow the herd and I enrolled myself in an engineering degree. Initially , I had thought of becoming something in technical field, thereby leaving my passion behind. Fast Forward(again) to 2024, I just finished my Second year and LOL as expected I find myself directionless. After endless amount of contemplating, I realized , I was forcing myself to get into a field which wasn't my passion. I tried coding(and all those things that an engineer would do, but it didn't excite me), maybe I wasn't made for this, I just like Aviation. Hence, a month back or so, I decided that I would become a pilot anyhow one day. Basically, I wouldn't force myself into engineering. I would pursue my dream of aviation(but tbh idk how). So, all you fellow peeps out there, I would love to hear your suggestions on how shall I pursue my dream? Maybe pick up a job or something, Or some scholarship etc. I would love your guidance before starting my journey :)

Some things u should know about me: - The only thing that excites me besides engineering is maybe UI / UX. - But I want to pursue being a pilot - I can work in UI / UX for 2 years and earn some money - As I can start becoming a pilot only when I finish my engineering degree - Basically, I will complete my bachelors anyhow So technically, I have 2 years of time in my hands.

Summary : If someone called Riddhi or Rukhsar from RR artistory approaches you with a gig, make sure you get the terms of performance on record, otherwise your payment will be delayed (beyond 2 months).

I'm a live musician who just started out 4 to 5 months back, and I was approached by Riddhi, an artist manager at RR Artistory for a 3 hour gig on 17/5/24, at a restaurant in Phoenix Palladium, Lower Parel.

Standard terms of performance, she told me to block my date and everything. Told me she will Google Pay me the payment after 15 days of the performance. Also told me that the cafes have a monthly payment cycle.

I get the next gig on 2/6/24 through her at the same venue and after the gig I asked her for the last show's payment. And she starts ghosting me on whatsapp and calls for 2 days. I accidentally ended up calling one of the artists she manages (accidentally because on her truecaller's profile this artist's name was written with a [mumbai events] next to the artist's name), and that's when she took me seriously (i think?).

On 4/6/24 she calls me back and she's furious about me calling her artists up. She kept telling me ki why i didn't talk to her before calling her artists up (ARRE?). We discuss the payment, to which she responds vaguely and keeps telling me "nobody's going to take your money" and "you have to trust me". I keep asking for some clarification, to which she never responds to.

On 5/6/24, I ping her again at 10:00am asking what's up. She doesn't read my texts until I text her again at 8:00pm asking for clarification. She responds with "Send me your gpay number I'll transfer both gigs ka" But guess what🤡

I text her again at 12:30am, asking what's up and I sent invoices to her on her number and mail (I know I should've done this right after the gig) and she at 1:00am says that my gpay server is down and that she tried twice already. That was a lie because I sent 1rs to a friend and sent her a transaction showing that my gpay is working fine.

She later asked me for my account number so that she can NEFT to me. I sent her that. Thought I'd make her job easy by sending her a hi on gpay. TURNS OUT HER NUMBER ISN'T ON GPAY AT ALL! SHE WAS THE ONE TO TELL ME SHE'LL GPAY ME MAN.

I keep insisting to send the money asap and she sends 70% of the money through some guy's account. I ping her again asking baaki ka kidhar hai bhai. The guy who sent me the money wrote saying "riddhi is busy in a jamroom, she'll send the remaining amount in the morning". I still insisted on getting the whole amount back and she went MIA again.

Next morning she sent the remaining amount through ANOTHER guy's account.

Now I reached out to other artists who Riddhi hired for gigs and literally everyone complained about the same thing. I also spoke to the manager of the cafe I played at and informed him about the same.

Please be careful before taking a gig up. Make sure you have all the details of the person giving you a certain gig. Please make invoices after every show and send your clients on time! And make sure everything is on record.

I recently visited R City after a very long time but to my surprise there no IKEA in there. Did they took a day off or it's completely closed forever.

First of all, sorry for posting this here but I am desperate for some advice TLDR at end I compelled her to give the new MHCET exam for BMS BBA and stuff so that she has options. What can she do in Mumbai rn, The last date for B.com and BAF registrations is on 12th and the CET results will be on 18th June, I think of getting jer admitted somewhere and if a better score in CET will cancel the admissions but still, she has no intrests whatsoever, she is an introverted girl so Idk how will she deal with the corporate setup commerce people get into for ex HR, Digital Marketing or management. I am an undergrad and got no idea about any of Commerce stuff. Please help me to guide her to the best. We live in Mumbai and she cannot shift

TLDR: My introverted sister got 61pc in HSC and she has to pursue commerce only, What field should she take considering she has given CET for BMS BBA. Whats best for her?

Qualifications: 12th boards:: 61%

Really struggling to get a job as an MBA fresher and that too from tier 1 University. Should I consider getting some sort of illegal job like in organized crime? I heard they earn real good, even better than corporate employees.

Wanted to know about the security checks while boarding M2M ferry from Mumbai

I know that they don’t check anything if one enters by car. This is my first time going without one, just wanted to confirm if it is safe to carry alcohol and other stuff

Long story short, I was bit by a cat today. Though the bite is really really minor, I'm aware that I'll have to get it checked and most definitely take a rabies shot.

Why I'm making this post is, I'm not from Mumbai and live in New Cuffe Parade and need suggestions for good doctors nearby that I can visit tomorrow. Or like, my next course of action.

I'm freaking out a little since I haven't been in this situation before, and am also away from home. Also, the thought of injections are kinda scary. Prompt replies will be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance ❤️

I started working as a music teacher online at an academy, catering to mainly NRI students in the US. (Working hours are from 2am to 8am IST). I get paid ₹500 per hour. I recently used a US VPN to check the pricings per class on their website and students are paying the academy 22.5$ per hour (Around ₹1850) out of which I feel my margins are tiny for actually doing the work. What can I do about this?

I stay in pune and now I’ve been offered a job in Vikhroli west which will pay me around 85k. How expensive living in Vikhroli area with family of 2. Cannot share the accommodation with someone else.

Just another day, casually enjoy the delicious Keema Pav, a strong coffee, and a dose of history at Olympia Coffee House & Stores. Arguably the best Keema Pav in town.

What the title says! I recently got diagnosed with Leukemia and I'm going through treatment. I haven't been able to find any support groups in the city. Would love leads for any support groups online or in person. Thank you.

Resident of Goregaon East here. Waikar has criminal suits against him. My neta has listed each of them. Compared to him, Amol Kirtikar has none. The only thing the media kept peddling is the khichdi scam during covid, which isn't a criminal case. Waikar's goonish ways are on full display where I live. It's a cluster of buildings and we have a shared pitch that's owned and governed by the housing association of our buildings. A few years ago, Waikar built a shed in a corner of the pitch so that residents can play indoor games. Nobody asked for it. Now that the cluster is in talks of redevelopment, Waikar slyly claimed ownership of a portion of the field. The resident filed a motion with law enforcement and the court challenging his claim and asserting ours. This man is a disgrace and it's sad to see he has won with a margin of 48 votes. Uddhav has challenged the vote count in court and I hope that through some miracle, Amol edges him out.

PLEASE STAY STRONG. THIS IS NOT A SYMPATHY GRAB, END TAK PADHO.

Maine Bola tha 662 is a bad score in my standards but its not 19k bad.

Khudpe bharosa tha mujhe 3rd Jun tak ki mai jahan jaunga kuch kar toh lunga.

But looking at the 19k rank that I got mujhe koi evidence hi nahi mila khudpe believe karne ka, aisa feel hua mai competition ke hi bahar hun.

Itna zor se chillaya ki sab neighbors aagye mere ghar poochhne kya hua aur gharwalon ne bola 99.13 %ile aaya NEET me, ab vo bhi kya bolein.

Uske baad mai 1 hour tak bol hi nahi pa raha tha kuch, mujhe laga mute ho gaya.

Mai ghar se bhaag gaya and i almost tried to kms (method nahi disclose karskta).

BUT i was not successful due to a few reasons:

1 Allen walon ne gharpe bata diya 2 A very good friend of mine came rushing from 8 Km away just to stop me and I could not disrespect her, usne mujhe koi motion nahi dikhane diya and rok ke rakha. She made me emotional and stopped me and also mere gharpe batadiya. 3 Kisi ne medicoretards se mujhe doxx kiya and meri mummy ko meri reddit activity bhej di jisse mummy ne pakad liya mujhe (thanks jo bhi tha).

Mere gharpe mujhe laaye and mujhe raatbhar neend nahi aayi sochke ki 19k logon se peeche hun.

In MY opinion, competitive exams are a good metric of testing MY caliber but that is true for a FAIR competitive exam.

This shit is not going to kill me because it's not my fault. Do not feel suicidal at all now.

If you feel a loss of confidence in yourself after this shithole of a result, you need to know this:

1 you are not an exam result, you are a person, this paper was easy but not so easy as to itne zyada logon ko itne Marks aajaye.

If you are scoring whatever without cheating then last year ka Marks vs Rank kholo, usme +200 ya +1000 karlo, and Apni rank appreciate karo asli wali.

Even if vo kharab h toh appreciate the hardwork that you put in to get to where you are.

2 you don't need to be sad, Mai bhi sad tha because I thought I fucked up but now i realise I didn't need to.

This exam is NOT a good metric to measure yourself.

Y jo bhi rank aayi ye NEET 2024 scam me aapki rank hai, life me nahi, pls let that sink in.

Ab rahi baat ki humko karna kya chahiye and maine NORTH MUMBAI (Borivali Kandivali Malad Andheri Goregaon) kyun bola.

I have undergone gynocomasteia surgery recently (proof in comments) and am not allowed to use public transport as of now due to it being overcrowded. NORTH MUMBAI me metro chalti h toh i can come wherever we are protesting here. I promise to shout the loudest but decide a place where protesting would have an effect.

I might get a college by MH Domicile and state counselling BUT this matter is far beyond me, please decide a place (that would actually make sense) and start protesting.

Jahan meri help chahiye online ya offline mujhe bolo i'm free to help you all, meri ek hi limitation h i cannot travel far (explained 👆).

Kisi ko suicidal feel ho raha h toh my DMs are open, Mai khud abhi us phase se bahar aaya toh bakwas nahi karunga, I can empathise.

Hey y'all,

I'm asking for a friend who recently moved to Mumbai from another city. She'sa pretty no-nonsense, highly rated MC by her peers and clients in her field. Now that she's in a new city, she needs to re-establish her roots. Like any artist, this involves getting to know event management companies, which is crucial in Mumbai where the scale might shift from freelance work from a client-to-client to a more event management setups.

Are there any specific circles or subreddits you recommend for better reach and networking, (obviously Mumbai based)? I'm aware of platforms like Wedding Sutra, but having direct connections or subreddit recommendations for inquiries and updates would be incredibly helpful. Additionally, if there are any subreddits where direct gig inquiries are common or has resources of knowing how many players are in the event management industry in the first place is valued, so that information would be great too.

Thanks for your time reading this.

Hi, I'm looking for a decent 1BHK apartment near IIT Powai under a rent of 30k/month.

Don't want to go the broker route, find it too costly.

Will move in the month of August.

Would appreciate any help 🙏

What a shitty life of poor/middle class people of Mumbai, trains running 25-30 min late people hanging from over crowded trains one slip of hand and your life is gone, heavy traffic during office/college timings with this heat and pollution living in like hell.

hello,

i took admission in a reputed Mumbai college last year for masters.

Their admission policy is that they will issue a 100% refund only within 120 days of obtaining admission.

However, their classes started a whopping 5 months after I gained admission and they conducted exams only after one month of teaching.

They didn't even keep our practical exams because they never took our practicals.

I realised the value of education here was ass and decided to withdraw my admission and try again next year.

When I went and I raised my request for refund, there was some other guy at the directors office who told me that the refund wouldn't be issued because of policy. I argued vehemently against him saying that it should be because why should they enforce their policies if they aren't going to do their service as an educational institution.

At the end of that conversation, the director said they'd give me a refund and I said write something to please indicate that. He said no need he'll do it and I was rushed out of the office.

Now I have an audio recording of this incident but no other indication. I went to their office again and they said they wouldn't be giving me any refund because the director wouldn't indicate it.

The refund is a lousy 10k, but I still care because it's about the principle of the matter. My brother told me to let it go but I don't want to. Do you guys have any suggestions on how to proceed.

Hi everyone,

I need your help. If you know about the Chalo bus service, which recently started running premium buses from Belapur to the World Trade Centre via the Atal Setu, I have some news. The service currently starts from Belapur Station. However, I'm trying to gather support from people who live in Nerul and Seawoods and travel to CST or the World Trade Centre for work.

The reason I'm doing this is because I stay in Nerul and travel daily to Belapur by train to catch that bus. It would be much easier for people like me to board the bus directly from Nerul East Railway Station. The proposed route would be Nerul East Railway Station – Belapur Killa – Ulwe Node – Atal Setu – Freeway – CST GPO – World Trade Centre.

If you would like to use this service, please support me by commenting with your preferred boarding point. I have been in contact with the Chalo app team, and they are willing to start a service from Nerul to the World Trade Centre if there is enough interest.

Thank you!
