This just seems to be a case of mismatch in expectations. Companies around the world provide expatriate relocation packages. The idea being expats wouldn't be familiar with how things are done in a foreign countries.
I don't understand why you think this was relevant to the topic.
- kevviiinn 4y agoIt's definitely relevant. Some upper caste individuals, from my personal experience, tend to expect things to be done for them by others. It doesn't matter what position the other person holds, the only thing that matters is the authority given by caste
- unmole 4y agoAgain, expat relocation support is something companies do the world over. It was pioneered in Hong Kong and Singapore to assist European professionals. It's rather silly to poffer caste privilege as an explanation just because the individuals in question happened to be Indian.
- kevviiinn 4y agoThis was not in a company, there was no department. They were roommates. Roommates are not relocation support.
- unmole 4y agoYou chose to interject when I responded to another poster. And you claimed it was relevant despite the fact that it was an entirely different scenario.
- kevviiinn 4y agoIt's simply another example of the same behavioral pattern
- unmole 4y agoYou don't even know what the other situation was! You don't even know if the other situation even involved upper caste Indians. But hey, don't let that stop you from asserting it's the same behavioural pattern.
- kevviiinn 4y agoMaybe you missed this part of the comment >because they were 'elite' as well.
