Originally posted by sasguru View PostWhat a sad attitude to have. A few years ago I was sent to investigate outsourcing options in Bangalore. Had a whale of a time and was pleasantly impressed. If you go to one of the campus parks, their offices are likely to be better than yours here.
Of course you should charge 'em extra
Drivers are paid for the full day, so after you get dropped off at the office, if you need to pop out, the driver is there waiting for you.
when I was in Chennai i had some excellent food, the restaurants are fantastic. Only bad point is that most of them are "family restaurants" so don't serve booze.
Shopping malls are well serviced too, if your wife/girlfriend wants anything then get a list and prepare to pick up a few barginsCoffee's for closersComment
