 "'Need to know swimming to get a job': Flood-like situation in Bengaluru sparks meme fest")
The Silicon Valley of India, Bengaluru, is currently battling torrential rain, which has wreaked havoc on its infrastructure. Leaving a large part of the city waterlogged, the lashing rains have crippled traffic movements and have further prompted employers to send out work-from-home orders to their employees. The situation has turned so extreme that some IT professionals resorted to taking tractor rides to reach workplaces, which haven’t permitted them to work from home till now. Now several videos from different corners of the tech hub have emerged online, which exhibit the current scenario in the city. These videos making the rounds on the internet have sparked a meme fest. Witnessing people using the tractors, many called it “special cab” services. On the other hand, several claimed that after the flood-like situation in the city only knowing coding is not sufficient to get a job, one needs to know swimming as well. Moreover, when a Twitter user dropped a video of the Wipro campus that was submerged under water, users were quick to mock that it is hard to differentiate if that is “rainwater or its employee’s tears". People from every corner of the city were tweeting and posting pictures to share their experiences. One user wrote, “Coding is not enough to get a job in Bangalore. You also need to know swimming.”
