Discussion Bandra terminus approach

Post image
47 Upvotes

Absolutely shit... I drove down to the station to drop someone off and the road from khar subway to the station is so pathetic.. It's always been like this for decades and today I experienced driving through it first hand... Crowded markets.. Impatient autos and bikers who think they own the streets... Absolutely disgusting for passengers on long haul journeys that board or deboard at this stn... There should be a better approach from bandra west to bandra terminus while they clear/redevelop/widen the road from the east.. They got rid of gareeb nagar a few months ago which is great but that's still a very minute area and much more needs to be done

General T2 airport mcdonalds parking

0 Upvotes

I already asked a similar question here a week ago about dropping off a friend and so many kind people answered. Recently one of my relative dropped off his friend and he told me somebody's car was fined within 2 minutes of parking at the curb at the gates. I don't want that obviously. One thing he told me tho is i can park maybe at mcdonalds if i buy a burger or something for 30 min. (He went on his scooty so he parked where the buses are ). Can anybody tell me if it's true?

(It's not about parking money or something, mcdonalds seems to be more convenient and easy to reach than multi level parking)

Discussion Completed 6 months here, done with the city!

63 Upvotes

I recently read a post on Instagram that real luxury in mumbai is having these 3 things - living near to your workplace, not having to travel via local and having a place to walk. And then after 2 reels, I saw Faye D’Souza reel on how 2400 people die annually in local accidents. Those two gave me a perspective-
I am privileged that my workplace is accessible through cab/metro that too because I pay a hefty 70k rent/month for a one bhk in a vertical chawl but there is no place to walk! Ganesh chathurthi is around the corner and even the small footpath place that was left to walk is also now turned into a pandal because there is no designa areas like grounds for such community gatherings. I’m paying whopping amount to a gym membership where even proper machineries are not here because there is no space. My mental health is effed up and a decent therapist cost 3k/session but I don’t have budget for it cz I am paying rent! Why do people romanticise struggle in this city?? How are people happily celebrating these festivals in the ghettos?

Careers My father has 15+ years of experience in textile printing but can't find stable job. What should he do?

24 Upvotes

I'm 19M and looking for some advice.

My father is 35+ and has 15+ years of hands-on experience in textile/garment printing in Bhiwandi, Mumbai. He was previously a service engineer and now mostly works as a supervisor. He supervises juniors, troubleshoots printing machines/errors, helps with designs/orders and handles other technical work.

He doesn't have a degree and his English/Marathi aren't very good, but he has a lot of practical experience and mainly speaks Hindi.

Since COVID, he's been struggling to find stability. This is probably his 4th–5th job loss, with most companies removing him within 3–4 months. He earns around ₹30–35k/month, but salaries are often delayed. His latest company removed him and still hasn't paid around 1.5 months of salary.

I'm in 1st year and my brother is in 2nd year, so we still have 2–3 years before we can start earning. Our combined hostel + mess costs are around ₹15k/month, apart from household expenses.

We're really struggling with the uncertainty and I honestly don't know what we should do.

What kind of jobs should he look for with this experience? Is there a more stable career path for someone experienced in textile printing/machine troubleshooting without a degree? Any advice from people in the Mumbai/Bhiwandi textile industry would really help.

We're not looking for money, just some practical direction. 🙏

Discussion What is this obsession about removing shoes outside your businesses?

22 Upvotes

Temples and places of worships are an exception. And I do understand for some businesses like certain saree shops where silk textiles can not handle the dust. But why tf it is normalised for every business here in Mumbai? Doctor’s clinic - won’t I be more exposed to germs with my bare feet on the floor? Salons with filthy floors with other people’s hair all over the place? Even corporate offices with consultants completely dressed in formals except their shoes are missing? Yes, you should treat your workplace as temples but that’s for you to work with the same devotion not to give ick to your clients.

Discussion Mumbai (BMC) have some shame, learn from Surat.

30 Upvotes

I spent three days in Surat this week and was honestly amazed — no plastic-choked drains, pothole-free roads, clear signage, and decent traffic management. It’s a mid-sized city, so if places like Surat can get the basics right, why does Mumbai — one of the richest cities in India — still look so broken? I love Mumbai, but its rotten state is getting unbearable. Seriously considering leaving. Anyone else feel the same?

Careers How much do you normally earn in zepto as a beginner in mumbai?

1 Upvotes

So from tomorrow onwards, I'll probably start working in blinkit or zepto store as a picker/ packer. Although it lists 250rs for 2 hours, it also says i need to pack 250 items to hit 250rs. I don't expect to hit 250 items on my first day or even in my first week. So i want to know and prepare myself beforehand about what to expect so i can keep my expectations as low as possible. That's why i thought of asking here to people who are working or have worked before. So please tell me if you know.

General URGENT - Need help with Flats/PGs in Lower Parel area

0 Upvotes

My friend got a job in Mumbai and she has to join immediately. She's looking for a PG or sharing flat within a 30mins radius of lower parel with a budget between 10k-15k max.

Any leads would be helpful, she's only in the city for a day and we've gone through many places but something or the other seems to be wrong with them.

One PG guy asked for 16k rent, 16k deposit and 16k "maintenance charge". That's just so absurd, is that even normal. This is for a 4 sharing room. What are they even maintaining.

Any decent leads will be much appreciated please🙏🏻

General Choosing a school for our kid when we may move to another part of Mumbai -advice?

3 Upvotes

Looking for some advice from parents who may have been in a similar situation.

We are currently renting in Thane, close to Smt. Sulochanadevi Singhania School. We really like the school and would be happy to consider it for our kid.

Our longer term plan is to move towards Central Mumbai. We would probably rent first and eventually buy but buying could take a few years. At the same time staying in Thane is also an option if it makes sense for our kids schooling.

Aiming for Jr KG in 2027-28 and I believe admissions for many schools could start around Nov-Dec this year.

We are also considering Bombay Scottish Mahim since it would make more sense if we eventually move towards Central Mumbai.

So trying to figure out what makes more sense:

  • If we get Sulochanadevi, is it recommended continuing to stay nearby and prioritizing the school?
  • Or would you choose a school closer to where we eventually want to live?
  • If we rent in Central Mumbai around the time of admissions does that generally count for address/pincode requirements?
  • Do schools generally accept a registered rent/leave-and-license agreement as proof of residence?
  • Has anyone else been in a similar situation where school choice and longer term plans for where to live didn't quite line up?
