After years of dreaming, hustling, and manifesting greatness＃ I＊ve finally made it
I＊m thrilled (and totally not questioning my life choices) to announce that I＊ve joined Vishal Mega Mart. Yes, THE Vishal. The mega one. The mart-est of them all. pic.twitter.com/7hht0S73Nh
Despite the mockery suggesting it is a ※dream job§ that requires Olympian-level effort, the actual pay for security guards at Vishal Mega Mart is fairly grounded.
According to data from Glassdoor and Ambition Box:
Freshers earn around Rs 9,000 to Rs 12,000 per month.
Experienced guards can take home between Rs 13,000 and Rs 18,000.
Supervisors can make between Rs 19,000 to Rs 25,000 per month.
So no, there is no Rs 1 lakh per month for standing at the entrance and scanning bags. If you are dreaming of switching careers post-meme madness, here is the breakdown of what different roles actually pay at the retail giant:
Cashiers and Billers: Rs 12,000 每 Rs 18,000/month
Customer Service Executives: Rs 15,000 每 Rs 22,000/month
Sales Associates: Rs 1 lakh 每 Rs 4 lakh annually
Department Managers: Rs 3 lakh 每 Rs 4 lakh annually
Assistant Store Managers: Rs 4 lakh 每 Rs 5 lakh annually
Store Managers: Up to Rs 9 lakh annually
Buyers/Senior Buyers: Rs 6 lakh 每 Rs 18 lakh annually
Clearly, if you want the big bucks, guarding the front door might not be your best bet. But as memes go, it is pure gold.
Why did this meme even go viral?
Nobody knows exactly where it began, but the joke hit a nerve. In a country where job scarcity is a real issue, satire has become a coping mechanism. The National Statistical Office recently reported that urban unemployment is at 6.5%. So when someone joked about the ※impossible odds§ of landing a Vishal Mega Mart security job, the internet responded with the only tool it has, memes.

One viral post even depicted a fake coaching centre called ※Vishal Guard Academy§ promising 100% placement with a crash course in ※bag checking and crowd control.§ Another meme dramatically compared a guard interview to an IAS viva.
