An X user named Chirag Deshmukh shared a story about a man he met during a train journey. According to Chirag, the man, a successful software developer with a high income, prefers to travel by train rather than by plane.
Chirag shared that the man earns more than 30 lakhs a year but chooses to travel by train unless it is an emergency.
See the post:
“I was travelling by train today and met a guy who works as a software developer in a big company and earns more than 30 lakhs a year.” Chirag’s curiosity made him wonder, “With that amount of money, why don’t you fly instead of taking the train?” he wrote in the caption.
The man replied with a smile: “After college, I was out of work and struggling. One day, while traveling by train, I met a person whose elder brother helped me get a reference that enabled me to get my first job. From then on, I decided to always travel by train, unless it was an emergency.”
The post went viral, with over 700,000 views and 4,000 likes.
Netizens have reacted to the post with a mix of responses. Some are sharing their own experiences of travelling by train, while others find the story funny, interesting and unique.
One of the users said, “I can relate to it, my first internship offer was through a guy who later became family and sat next to me in AMD’s Ahmedabad Rajdhani.”
Another commented: “Yes, travelling by train is more fun and interactive. You have more freedom, you can move around and be free. I have had amazing conversations with complete strangers on the train. This is not the case at the airport, people are busy doing their own thing.”
The third commented: “A miracle will happen eventually, at any time, through someone else.”
