Okay, firstly, I’m not sure Gurgaon exists. Yes, I looked it up, yes it appears to have its own wikipedia entry and all that. But that just SOUNDS like a fantasy kingdom ruled by an evil wizard. So I would NOT trust any callgirls from some evil magical realm, thankyouverymuch.
I keep hearing from lots of news outlets that “the economy really isn’t that bad, guys”, and sure, compared to the Pandemic or Great Recession, maybe… but the big elephant in the room, the thing that NOBODY is talking about, is housing. Housing is still utterly impossible to attain for most people, and I have yet to hear of any good solution for it other than “hope the market fixes itself-- but NOT with a real estate crash, that would be bad! ;-;”.
Office real-estate is crashing because so many places are still trying to make WFH, well, WORK, and lots of people are asking (quite reasonably I think) “Why don’t we just rehab those office blocks into housing?” Unfortunately that is an expensive endeavor that the big real estate firms don’t have the appetite for, because it involves running new utility lines and doing lots of other changes to the structure of the buildings to make them actually livable. It’s easier for them to build their McMansions outside of the major cities while the cities themselves start to rot away.
There are SO MANY solutions to this that don’t suck, but no-one is going to try them because the profit margins are too slim. >_<
The “Well, shit.” look on his face really sells it for me.
It’s a working breakfast. Gotta stay on that grind!
Memes! You’ll have so many memes!
400 MEMES!
The moment I hear someone try to call ANY job “unskilled labor”, I have to fight the urge to shove the tools into their hands and say, “Okay, YOU do it, then, since it’s so simple.”
I would love to have one! ;-; Could you maybe just offer financing terms that I could afford? Please?
