Hey Shumi, remember that white formal shirt we got from the mall?
Can't find it.
Would've gone for a wash.
Why do you want the white shirt all of a sudden?
I have an interview.
Interview?
So, has the government has changed all those rules?
Or wait, is it the Supreme Court again?
No, nothing's changed.
Then?
Then...I applied and...
I got a call.
You gave in?
Look...I am really not in the mood for a debate.
It was necessary, so I did it.
What are you saying!
Do you have any idea what you've done?
You've just enrolled yourself on the NJB!
Do you even know what it means to be on the National Job Bank?
I'm not an idiot.
Of course you are.
You've just given the government access to everything.
Everything about you!
Where you are, where you go, what you do!
What you talk, think, feel, express, shy away from...everything!
And the government has the right to share all of this information with these so called job creators and their HR departments.
Do you even know how many people this is?
Thousands!
And now, all of them will know every single detail of your daily life...
All of them!
Too loud, Shumi. Two decibels above 'Society Threshold'.
Look, I understand...
But everyone is doing this.
And it's important for my future that I upload my profile too.
But because of this, now these crazy fuckheads are tracking us.
I know. But you and I have nothing to hide, right?
It's not about hiding, it's about privacy.
Privacy is a myth.
It's a basic human need!
So, what could I have done?
The government has given us two options...
Either join the army and risk your life fighting a brainless war which could've been avoided by probably a handshake...
Or just give them what they want, and take up a safe job.
Now you tell me which is the safer and the most practical option.
Okay...
All I am saying is that it's not mandatory.
Like, take me for instance. I am not putting my profile on the NJB, right?
Yours is not the same case as mine.
You artists, actors, dancers, yoga teachers...
Your entire 'rule breakers cummunity'
It wants to be tagged as 'exceptional'. And it also wants to set the 'rules'.
But they can't get the best of both, right?
'Rules' and 'Exceptions' are opposite words!
Airbubble, 25. No, 24.
And I...I'm a commoner.
Happy to do my 9 to 5 job.
I don't have any passion or hobby that makes me want to leave my job and run away.
And that's by choice.
And by the way, people like me are a good 99% of the population.
We're the majority.
Great! So, if you're a common man, the government can make you do...
Whatever they want, whenever they want.
No, that's what you're saying!
Are you're fine with that!
Yes.
Yes?
Then what'd be the difference between you and those robot prototypes?
The less the difference, the better.
You know why the government is not manufacturig robots on a mass scale right now?
No, you tell me.
Because it makes buniness sense.
Remember how Uber never bought its own cars...
They just converted the existing ones, in a way that they could control them.
And the government is doing the exact same thing.
By making us do the robot's job.
Till we are okay doing the robot's jobs, we will have jobs...
But once they start mass manufacturing robots, it'll be all over for us.
So the smart thing to do here, is to convert...into a robot.
But...Dhruv...
You remember you read that article...
The one that said that if you're on the NJB...
Then the government will even know when we're having sex.
I mean, you don't even have a problem with that!?
Well, we should've thought this through, earlier...
Don't get me wrong, Shumi...
But your period app...it knows all about your cycles...
It knows your exact moods...
And it matches that with our social profiling...
So, that B2B company, I can't recall the name...
It knows approximately when we are having sex.
It's a funny old thing this, Marketing!
When an app asks us for some information, we happily give it away as if it's some cool buddy of ours...
But when the government asks for information, the face of our oldie Prime Minister pops up right in front of us...
And we go like, no, we're not telling this guy.
But think about it practically...
If giving them the information means that we get jobs and the government catches terrorists...
Then what's the problem!
And by the way, I think I have a good chance at this job...
I read a couple of reviews on glassdoor...
They usually hire people who know like 2 to 5 Pink Floyd songs and who like to play table tennis...
But, isn't it true that during the interview process, they get you all naked and stuff...for health stats...
I mean, in the name of 'healthy organisation'...
I will get naked, big deal!
What!
Don't we pose half-nude on the beaches and upload those pictures for likes and hearts?
So, what's the big deal if I go all nude to get a job!
What the hell are you even saying, Dhruv!
I mean, this is wrong at so many levels...
Whatever's happened so far, I think we've just been tricked into it...
But how can you go ahead and give your consent for this?
Haven't you ever given your consent...
To those random apps like...
How will you look 20 years from now!
What will be your job in your next life!
Next life, it seems!
C'mon, please! Dhruv, Facebook already has those details...
Exactly! Exactly what I have been saying!
Facebook knows all our preferences...
Google knows all our whereabouts...
And these bank details, properties, transactions...
These are things the government has known since AADHAAR!
All that's happening now is that the government is collating all of this...
And they're working with organisations to get the right job to the right candidate.
Could there have been a better use of the match-making algorithm that this, you tell me?
And baby...
You and I also met through the same algorithm if you think of it...
So, it's not that bad afterall, is it?
Right?
What?
Baby?
