r2i forum

[quote=Tweedledee;23034]if the only places you ate out at were BKs and subways, then , sorry to say, you are better off r2iing. US is truly heaven for those who love to sample different cuisines, and unlike india one can do that w/o getting an upset stomach.[/quote] Actually, I agree with you that ...

[quote=upendora;23682]The cons listed apply to other cities as well. It all depends on which part of city you live and work.[/quote] But in case of Hyderabad, I live in Gachibowli, right next to Microsoft campus. There is really nothing wrong with the roads which, in my opinion, are excellent. But ...

?I agree with your analysis of your hallucination.? {Credit: Scott Adams -- [url]http://dilbertblog.typepad.com/the_dilbert_blog/2007/04/my_new_favorite.html[/url] } I didn't say life in the US is boring. (I used the term "boring" for describing potlucks, which I avoided like the plague). I said ...

This thread is about "r2i to Hyderabad" experience for non-locals. Please start another thread if you would like to know the experience for a local. [quote=alam_imran;22313]The cons you listed are not for HYD Locals who had lived there. SO they are not really considered as cons. Tell us about ...

In my experience so far (after 4 months of R2I): Besides the pros and cons already listed by others, one thing not brought up so far, that I have felt is: Life in the US is too predictable. One can go day in and day out going through the motions and drudgery, attending boring desi potlucks with the ...

I'm a non-local and do not speak telugu. I R2I'ed 4 months ago and here is my experience with Hyderabad so far. Disclaimer: I'm not saying all this is true, but its just been my experience so far -- so passionate hyderabadis please don't send me hate mail about any of this. Pros: 1) Weather is good ...

[quote=back_in_des;21575] It will take a few months to get used to it. Then you will be one fo the 'discourteous' ones soon. :-) [/quote] No, I will not. It might sound too romantic, but part of my reason to R2I is to make India a better place. And if I can't be a part of the solution, at least I ...

I r2i'ed about 4 months ago, and so far its been a roller-coaster ride. There are several things to be thrilled about, but since this thread is about the disappointments, I'll focus on those. 1. People, in general, are not courteous at all. Everyone will try and get ahead of you in thw queue at the ...

I've scratched my brand new car twice within 3 weeks of buying it. Some of that can be attributed to me getting re-adjusted to Indian driving conditions. But mostly its the astounding disregard for any rules by Hyderabad's drivers. It's as if they don't even know why those lines for demarcating ...

The battle in recent times has been not to retain but to recruit. As far as I know, Microsoft is the one having real trouble preventing people from moving to companies like Google and Amazon. [quote=bornhyderabadi;20734]Oh! So the battle moves from Seattle to Hyderabad as well. Amazon had to pay ...
