At that point, the cook casually mentioned that in his own 1BHK, his house help charges him Rs 2,000, and that his cook charges him Rs 2,500 per person. “I was shocked,” the man wrote in his post, “realising that I was bargaining over just Rs 1,000, while he was willingly paying more for a 1BHK.” He wrapped up his post with a wry nod to the city’s quirks, saying, “Just Bangalore things”.

Bengaluru man’s Reddit post

Comments on the Reddit post were filled with humour and sharp observations about the unique dynamics when it comes to household staffing. One user wrote, “He’s running a cook staffing business. Trainee cooks work at his house for 3 months before he assigns them to his clients with 20% commission.”

Another Redditor commented, “Wait until you get to know that your cook is CEO of Cook Services and his cook is fresher under probation period.” A third user said, “Why dont you hire his cook then? He must be cheaper.” A fourth user wrote, “Time for you to become someone’s cook. PROPAGATE THE CHAIN!”
