On Grid inverter caught fire. What could be the reasons
Video not made by me. Saw this on Facebook
My Pakistani international driving license was rejected and I was told that it's fake. Because the QR code on it didn't verify it.
I'm currently in Germany on a student visa.
And after much hassle and wait finally I got a summer job as an Amazon delivery driver.
We got training for the first three days and the salary was 100 euros per day.
Then we were all asked to submit the pictures of our driving licenses for the proper start of the job.
I sent them my digitally scanned driving license.
But after two days I was told to send the driver's license again.
And they sent me a picture of the driver's license of trainee who was Indian.
I sent them the picture again and I also sent them the downloaded pdf from the official DLIMS website.
But it was rejected again.
This was their final message.
"Amazon tell my your driving id ist falsch"
Then I checked the QR code on the driving license and it just shows your ID card number and driving license number on the Google search bar. Which clearly doesn't verify the card.
When I checked the QR code on License of the Indian student.
It took my to their official government license website. And it verified.
I have checked the QR codes on my ID card also.
It also doesn't verify or give proper results.
What to do.
I have lost that job.
Odyssey or Spiderman Brand New Day. Which movie needs more promotion and which doesn't need much.
Spiderman has a massive global fan base , having attached to the MCU and massive success of previous movies and the ending of the movie in a kind of cliffhanger makes the audience to watch this movie no matter what.
But still marvel is spending a lot on promotion. Even hiring the biggest footballer in the world for its promotion.
On the other hand The odyssey has chosen a different path with little to no promotion.
The odyssey is not a franchise or sequel. But is based on one of greatest stories ever told.
It has a star studded cast.
I know Christopher Nolan has a fan base but this movie is not only for the fan base.
First Pakistani movie I watched in cinema. Still it is the only movie which made me Walk out of the cinema.
During our first year of university. I went to watch this movie with my friend.
The idea was simple to support our national film industry. We went to Universal Cinema Emporium.
But the movie was so lame, inconsistent and was all over the place. Whatever silly idea they could think of they threw that at the wall hoping it would work.
Romance, comedy , fantasy, magic.
But not a single one of these things work.
The film mixes romance, fantasy, comedy, and supernatural elements, but these ideas weren't woven together well. The story often seemed unfocused.
Half way through most of the people started using their phones and hardly anyone was interested in the movie.
My friend started watching some other movie on his phone.
We wanted to leave but we didn't want to seem rude and walk out.
But then one group left right in front of us.
This gave us courage. We stood from our seats and walked out.
Still this remains the only movie which made me Walk out of the cinema even after spending money to watch it.
Just got saved from getting scammed at the last minute.
So today my next door neighbor from childhood messaged me.
For context our houses are right next to each other.
She got married 8 years ago and moved to another city. So nowadays the contact between us is bare minimum.
But today I got her message after a really long time and the first thing she said was that she needs some money.
Fortunately for me and unfortunately for the person texting me. It was the last days of the month and I had spent all my bank money. And I transfer all the savings to my mother's account. That account works only on cheque so no ATM and bank app.
So at this point my bank account was almost empty.
I simply said the same thing to her.
She simply replied ok thanks.
I felt really bad that I couldn't help her even though she had asked for the first time.
After some time my sister got the same text from her number.
Sister said ok to her and was sending her 20 thousand.
Before sending she confirmed her easypaisa number from me. And I helped her write the number.
So this happened at around noon.
In the evening her mother (still our neighbor) came to our house.
She was telling my mom about how her daughter Whatsapp and easypaisa was hacked and the hacker stole around 25k from her account.
Then the person started messaging every contact and asked for money.
Hearing this I was shocked.. I told her we also got the message. And my sister had already sent her the money.
She got more worried and told that 3 or 4 people have sent her money but her accounts still not recovered yet.
I called my sister to tell her to give her the bad news.
But she told my that she didn't send her the money.
At first try the transaction didn't go through.
And her new Display Picture was unusual.
That's why she didn't send her again at that time.
And she thought of trying again after going home.
Hearing this put me really at ease.
And really thanks to Allah who saved our hard earned money.
But feeling really sad for my neighbor though.
She lost 25k of her own money. And the money which people sent her.
Any help or advice about what the next step the neighbor should do.
Sharing this for awareness.
So today just after my father left home. I was home alone and there was a knock on the door. I went and opened the door and there was a man who looked like a beggar and drug addict.
But he says that he is working at the mosque near my house and doing paint there. And says that my dad knows him.
This immediately puts an alarm in my mind cause there is no paint work being done in the mosque. And his clothes didn't even have a splint of paint on it.
I said sorry I can't help you.
He seemed really disappointed at that.
Then he says that it's okay I don't ask someone twice if a person rejects.
But the next thing he asked me was really weird.
He asked " yeh twadoo samne Ghar wale banday ka Kya Naam Kya tha main un ko Janta Hun."
I was 100% sure he didn't know them either. Cause my neighbor's uncle is a policeman.
I said if you really know them knock at their door and ask them yourself. "Lag pata jaye ga"
After hearing this he didn't have anything more to say and went away from our street.
I was harassed by a transgender.
Last night I went to KFC Johar Town near Expo center Lahore. I was on a bike and in the drive through lane. The line was long and just before the start of KFC area a transgender came and asked for money. I didn't have any cash on with me and I was going to pay for KFC via card.
I simple said to her that I don't have any cash with me and therefore couldn't help. And believe me I was in my nicest behavior possible. I used the word "mazrat" three times.
But she didn't listen. She immediately grabbed my hand and tried to rub her finger between my palm.
I calmly and slowly removed my hand from her and again said to her "Mazrat , lekin mere pass paise nahi hain"
Then she said these words
"De de edda wadda Lun hi"
I couldn't believe that someone actually said these words out in public. And mind you there were cars behind also.
I was in silence and didn't utter a word.
Then finally she was going. But just before she went she grabbed my penis.
Then she moved on to the car behind me.
I was in shock.
Didn't know what to do.
I looked back at her and she was smiling.
The car behind me didn't open the windows for her.
The lane moved forward.
Now I was the 2nd in line to order.
Now I was sure that she will not come to me again because there were cameras. And I made sure to not look back again.
While ordering food , I forgot what I was supposed to get.
Ordered after taking some seconds.
Took the food.
The ride back home felt really strange and scared.
