| ~~~Beware~~~ To: My Sweet friends out here,
Don't wear ID cards out of the campus!!!!!!!!!! plz don't
ignore especially Indian software engineers
Most important thing is that, please keep your company ID card
inside the pocket / Purse and do not show it outside people once you
come out from the company premises. Otherwise it is the primary
identification that you are IT Tech guy and they may follow you.
Many IT guys are going outside with their Company
ID and that leads the identification of Software Engineer to the
external world.
Friends,
This is to draw your attention to the increasing crime rate
in Bombay, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad. In the recent past the crime
rate has grown like mad and the targets are none other than we guys
THE SOFTWARE PROFESSIONALS and CALLCENTER.
They know that we are one who has the following valuables
-MOBILE PHONES, BIKES, WATCH'S, CAR, MONEY. Believe me they don't even
spare SHOES. We had some past experiences with our employees not
personally but have heard people lost valuable things and also heard
some lost their lives or become handicapped. These people were
attacked when they were coming back from work or when they were
travelling late at night; People with knifes, swords, guns attack in
groups of 3 - 4 or may be even more .Another trick that they use is to
tie GI metal strings in the middle of the roads and when some one
crashes because of it they loot them .Lets us not fall into this trap
.Please take precaution and make sure no one loses anything coz we
work in the nights and for a better tomorrow - let us make sure that
we see that tomorrow.
Some tips to avoid these situations--
1. Avoid using bikes in the night while coming to office and while
going back from office late night.
2. Try going in groups when you have late night plans.
3. Avoid taking ladies along with you in the night.
4. Make sure you wear a helmet coz that can avoid you from a serious
crash on your head.

lights and also sad and scary roads.

the night coz that will avoid you taking a short cut home trying to
avoid the cops.
7. Inform (clearly) your family when you are leaving home and also
inform your friends where you will be and which way you are coming and
as well avoid meeting people in remote places.

people when are travelling in the nights.

manager that you are coming by bike and the time that you will reach
