And I figured out how much the temporary housing is costing our employer. They are renting a condo for 5000 rupees per day. This is about $150 a day in a country with a per capita GDP of $1000 and where the average tech worker makes ¼ of what their US counterpart makes. I’m sure it is a nice condo, but jeez!
