Why suicide capital?
by fun tan on Mar 15, 2008 12:55 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Bangalore is suicide capital because it has only IT/BPO workers who are pampered. Number one, they drive other people who cannot afford bangalore crazy and drive them to suicide. Number two, these IT/BPO workers themselves are tortured by their bosses to work like dogs to increase productivity and competition is unleased among team members and the dogs go on to work like donkeys and the best donkey is retained the others are put into performance improvement plan and later laid off. The performing donkeys get depressed due to work pressure and commit suicide, those who get laid off suddenly feel they are paupers and commit suicide. Others take to crime to make money, get depressed and commit suicide. those who get caught commit suicide. and those who are still in those companies live in glorified westernized world and get into unwanted relations and commit suicide. Others are forced to sleep with their bosses in what is called 'promotion couch' (wonder what the IT companies mean by performance, is it performance in bed?) get depressed and commit suicide. So that is why it is the suicide capital of the world.

Unfortunately lot of things get bloated out of proportion. What we have is "reported news" wherein stress related death is higher in the northern part of India where it is not "reported" in the media. Bangalore is left to face the brunt. If I kill myself, I cannot be puny enough to blame it on other elements...
