you from KL? or big city?

just curious, no offend ...

hey bloggerblue, we can just wear very casual working in Apple right? T shirt & jeans + sneakers.. Can i wear short pants? not too short of coz... and is it ok to wear sandals (a bit look like slippers type)

I just submitted my application for E Pass today, hopefully MOM will approve it

Anyone knows that wat are the consequences of not working half year (holding work permit)? I heard they said MOM will fine / deduct salary or something?

Please elaborate. What's the connection?

fyi, that blogger guy is wearing short pants to office like it is inside his own house like that. but i personally will wear smart casual. at least show a little respect to the company. thats what i think. the company rules is, wear what ever u think u are comfortable in as long as its not naked.

Added on June 10, 2010, 10:34 pmthere is only 2 type of people will answer like this.

1. rich fellow (above average income where family at least have 1 car when he is young). so family members will tend to say riding a bike is dangerous blah blah blah.
2. living in big cities. riding a bike in KL is dangerous. but the 1st factor actually contribute to this as well because if u are from those poor or low income family, u will have no choice.
3. i can confirm he is a chinese. and confirm he never grow up in a family which house hold income less than RM2k before. thats why he answer like that.

like i say, u can wear what ever u want. but if u wanna wear sexy, i dun mind regarding jail break iPhone, nobody in the office will open ur phone and check 1 la. its invade of privacy. so nobody cares.

then if accidentally let ppl find out, will have any consequences or not? U know la sg ppl so strict one... Everything also LAW LAW LAW...

if people find out, u sue them for invade of privacy 1st before they sue you (i wonder if they can) for jail break your OWN phone.

hahahhaha... ok ok.. luckily i asked first before i blindly restore my iPhone when i start working on 28th...

For point #1... people don't say bike riding is dangerous simply because they drive a car instead of riding a bike. They say it's dangerous because it's dangerous. Plain and simple. Any bike rider who thinks that riding is "not dangerous", and that the injuries in the event of an accident are not severe - needs his head examined.

As for point #3... all the people I know who used to ride bikes when they were younger or poorer - all say the same thing. They will never consider riding bikes again. It's just too risky. They have too much to lose or are too old to deal with the possibility of needless abrasions and fractures. All of them rather pay 2K or 3K more and get a 2nd hand Kancil.

anyone?

Is it tough? Not really, but not really because of your citizenship, more of the qualification itself (no offence) and timing. I can't speak for all the Big 4s, but the impression I get based on what I gathered is the Big 4s in Sg tend to place more value on degree holders. I know for one of the Big4 if you are an ACCA grad, they will place you in their SME audit department. Whereas for timing issue, the major intake (July to Sept) for this year I believe have already been filled up long time ago, so if you are only gonna apply now I kinda doubt you will make it in this year.

As for the looking of a job when you are physically here, I can't really give much comment on this, probably others could give better advice. But I know for big companies it doesn't really make much of a difference since you are most likely able to apply online (for Big4s you can definitely apply online).

thanks , really appreciate ur help. but one thing to note, i have a 2nd class upper degree too. haha

Yeah... casual wear... normally i wear jean + normal T-shirt from mon-thursday.... i wear short + t-shirt + sandal... hahahaha~ u add me in fb later u see my attire... wahahaha

for girl.. i suggest make up a bit... dress nice a bit.. ok? office not too many leng lui

kns lester... i only wear short pant on friday more like a sport wear la ~~~~~ anyway.. we are in office... not outside.. haha...


i dont mind u wear sexy also

on, 28 June we lunch together, ok?

It depends on individual, i was on a oil platform and you dont see the company rep, the C/O or even the captain wearing smart casual eventhough they have rank, as long as your comfortable, thats what matters. Heck everbody was wearing t-shirts and shorts.

Plus in a hot and humid country, it doesnt make much sense to wear long pants and a jacket unless you like to sweat it out.

haha ... cos me from small town, ppl all around riding bike and no problem with that .. haha

"Funny Thing" care to share like wat??

i got her msn. u no nid buaya. she is too pretty (if she didn't put fake photo ) and i am sure we both are not qualified for it.

Perhaps... riding a kapcai on a little muddy path is somewhat different from riding a big bike on the expressway.

But that's the other thing. Kampung riders who suddenly ride in cities and highways... greatly increase their risk of accidents. Just like how all those people who normally drive to supermarket only, suddenly think they are competent to do high speed long distance driving during Raya and CNY.

frankly speaking, riding a bike in Singapore is 10x safer than riding in KL. 1 thing i notice is Singapore doesn't have any "manhole" in the middle of the road unlike in KL where i would say the "manhole" causes 90% of motorcycle accidents. I personally fell from my bike twice because of it. once because the "pot hole" is too deep and cause my whole bike to fall when knock into it. the 2nd time is on Federal highway motor lane where the drainage cover got stolen and my bike bang into the drain in high speed, then i fall. from that day onwards, i didn't use motor lane as using motor lane = die 100x faster than using the highway with big lorries and cars.
