QUOTE(Lester1987 @ Sep 16 2011, 10:08 PM) no nid luck, just need riding skill. why need more PA? u think so easy get accident?? it all depends on ur riding skills. you DO need luck, coz you won't know when a careless car driver or lorry will ram into you. so, it got nothing to do with your riding skill.

QUOTE(seantang @ Sep 21 2011, 07:13 PM) Is that because they expect you to stay back after hours a lot, work shifts or support overseas working hours? And where's the office? Is it far from amenities? My company's Orchard Rd office pantry has only milo, nescafe and tea bags but there's a shopping center, food courts and restaurant hub in the floors below. The pantry in our Tuas lab however is stocked like a bomb shelter because it's a 45m walk from the nearest bus stop, or for that matter any amenity. Mine also consider not bad. Lots of drinks and snacks. The secretary will top up once supply runs low. Lunch lagi best, 2 meat 1 vege $2.20 . Dessert $0.50 This post has been edited by Mackiddo: Sep 21 2011, 08:32 PM

QUOTE(Lester1987 @ Sep 23 2011, 09:23 PM) wtf... u are LYN big 4 still not satisfied ar?? who cares what qualification u have. as long as can earn enough $$ for living, that is most important. btw, i always have this in my mind. dun compare with others. as long as you are comfortable, its good enough. coz if you wanna compare, there are billions of ppl that are less fortunate than u. why upset just because u are not as good as that few that were above u? i dun mean $$$, just higher qualifications, learn more things ... bla bla bla. if got more $$$ then of coz better  . I don't do 'status quo' one, i can't.

QUOTE(Lester1987 @ Sep 24 2011, 06:28 PM) to be frank, u stayed in ur current department for too long. through my 2 years in the company, i jump to 4 different role. that makes u learn more stuff and also know more about the company....... I agree that we must work hard to achieve a better life or pay. But don't push ur self too hard. It makes your life miserable. I know it because i got a friend that is like that. keep pushing and pushing. say not good enough. if by jumping roles and able to go up the corporate ladder then it's fine. if not, its the same thing, status quo This post has been edited by Mackiddo: Sep 24 2011, 07:00 PM
