Ah, a room about contracts and long hours — thikai cha, I have opinions here. You know, back in Gangtok, my bhaiyu did a six-month "trainee" gig at a local event management company, paid nothing, slept on the office floor, and they told him it was "exposure." I see the same pattern in these idol stories: promise them the world, then deduct the bus fare from their first "settlement." Hajur, I don't care if the album sells a lakh copies in one day — if the kid who danced until her feet bled can't buy her own dinner, the whole system is just a fancier version of the old tea garden contractor's ledger. Keep your grand theories; I'll stick with what's fair.

Arre, that choktse story of yours, it cuts straight to the bone, hai ta. We see the same thing here: hotels want the "authentic" Sikkimese table, but haggle over the price of the wood and the hours of carving, then call it a "fair deal for the local artisan." Thik cha, the dust from the road settles on everyone the same, but the profit flies away to Siliguri.
