    Have not watched the movie. But if I’m not mistaken - many of the past traditions and including for the royalty. It was that the grooms family that would traverse through the land to pick up/bring back the bride back to his home. It’s still somewhat practiced if im not mistaken, but not like the caravan style as you seen in those old school films. A cleaner example of this in this film of a [prominent ruler] marries and goes to get his new bride back home. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jodhaa_Akbar)














  • I asked for a raise at x startup company after a 1.5yrs there. The boss upgraded from his gasoline powered Audi to Tesla. and the boss’s boss cto probably got a sweet bonus. I was the only person in my time zone doing all IT stuff for my tickets physically possible. But then they thought I didn’t do anything all. I’m great at what i know and what i can accomplish, made ppl feel comfortable and did my job without any drama from my end. But never getting that pay raise bc the IT leadership added another layer of bureaucracy bc the then cto was leaving and allowed for competition to occur. And then a vp entered and tried to insert their self into engineering comp sci (design, arch, cost savings where adjusting for quality, speed, and time) shit and failed. And he was ousted…(shortly after me) overall moral of the story/expierence greedy as ppl always remain greedy even when someone wants a raise less than the avg price of a fast food meal…
