Observation: Indian guys during lunch
Reply to: pers-191794179@craigslist.orgDate: 2006-08-08, 9:42PM EDT
I work @ AIG offices in Jersey City, NJ and have noted this interesting observation: Indian guys RARELY go out for lunch. 12 PM rolls around and everyone is headed for the local eateries but the Indian guys have their Tupperware and head right for the microwave. So I asked one of the many IT Indian guys, don't you guys go out to lunch? They were like.. no.. our wives prepare our lunch for us every day. Every day! Damn. These are some lucky fuckers. The last person who made lunch for me was my MOM. And you can see the love in that moment.. the sauces are in one tupperware, the rice is in another tupperware, the dipping breads are wrapped in alimimum foil.. the silverware.. it's very clear that these guys have it together. They look meek and lanky and wussy, but their women cook for them every day! And you know they're getting dinner and breakfast and consistent *****. No wonder you never see an Indian guy flirting with the hot chicks in Martketing. Now I find myself VERY attracted to Indian females and see a lot of beauty in them where I didn't really notice them before. You Indian guys had me fooled.. you guys are cool..
this is in or around Tupperware heaven

Time to get married, i guess. hopefully to an indian gal so u can get tupperware lunch :)
This comment made me feel really uncomfortable. First of all it seems to be implying that all the Indian workers are a little bit "geeky" and not really involved in mainstream things as members of staff. Second of all it's implying that white girls aren't meeting the food and sexual needs of their mates and implying that Indian girls have it right by being subserviant.
I would hazard a guess Balaji that if you are not already married that you would be guided by love, respect and a mutual understanding of needs in your choice of partner, not some jumped up racist view of the world?
I thought so...
I work with a muslim guy who comes with prepared food each day. He is a vegetarian and very strict about what's been near his food. To be honest, I don't blame him. I no longer eat the sandwiches prepared for meetings at work. Cakes yes, sandwiches no.
I am also very grateful for the food prepared for me by my wife in the morning :)
Hi Helsalata,
First of all...I am no racist...I beleive in equal rights between genders. There should be love and respect for one another for any relationship to grow and mature.
Some of my colleagues work in AIG, New Jersey. The comment made me smile a bit because I could imagine all of them going together and having lunch, sharing their food and generally having a good time.
I am not even sure who is the guy who put out this comment in craig's list. As I mentioned this is in the rant's and raves section.
I would consider myself blessed/lucky if I have a loving wife who willingly prepares food for me everyday. Just the thought that someone was envious of that made me smile and I put that in the blog.
This is not meant to hury anyone's sentiments and nor am I like that.
Joolian:
I can definitely understand the pleasure of eating home cooked food filled with love though I am not married myself.
I'm cool with it all Balaji. Just aware that Americans can be racist (as can any nationality). Where ever it takes place, it makes me mad.
And for your information, I'm married to Joolian! It isn't often he gets a well crafted lunch, but when I get round to it, they're usually pretty good!
