pretty easy.. just google  information is easily available these days 

not unless it is stock in the car 

Are you going to pay for this bill or how???? If me see this, pengsan....     

shit lo, this week just came in a lady CEO in our company...

single, aged 40+... shouting and scolding staff without valid reasons, ridiculous and unpleasant attitude...

haih, anyone's company got similar kind of bosses in top management?

Guys, I am in deep trouble. This is my first time working in Singapore and I am quite discouraged to learn that my company's management is not what I have expected. I was tipped off (I got to know from the staff who is leaving and that is when after I have signed the in-principle permit) that this company isn't good but during the interview they impressed me so much with their potential and plans. Plus it is an international brand.

I need advise on how to resign. I am just afraid that I wont be able to get another working permit from a new company or MOM due to my early resignation. I am going to start work this saturday and was thinking of leaving within the 3 months probations. And let say if they terminate me will that affect me if I find job again? Will the new company knows? Or should I just tell them and will they believe me? Gosh ....what a luck these days~

Please help me. I need guidance and advice badly now.

Never could bring myself to pay high prices for durian mooncake simply stuffed with durian off the seed. Might as well just eat fresh durian, which is so much cheaper. It's a lot of premium to pay for the snowskin and fancy packaging.

Boombastic. It's boomz.

They sell you S$ currency notes at RM2.5120. They buy S$ currency note from you at RM2.4220.

The TT rate is RM2.44 (they buy S$), so that'll be what applies using Regionlink to send S$ back to MBB MY.

It has been mentioned in the thread countless of time that the only rates matters to us small player is the rate offered by money exchange, instead of so-called reference.

do you want your children end up complain and complaining?

I'm from s'wak, majority fresh grad here got paid less than rm2k. I dunno how much to expect with masters degree in singapore.

Locally, the demand for masters in the specific field is not high in the industry. I just hope that majority of Singapore's firm won't give "you're over-qualified for the job" statement. This happens in Sarawak.

its hard to resist..but lot of people told me like this..

yeah maybe..i wasnt thinking bout that..

This is very rare in any MNC that wants to build a strong corporate culture. What you described inevitably results in cliques (best case) or empire-building (worst case).

And in a matrix organisation (common for many MNCs), each employee has to work with many stakeholders apart from his supervisor and immediate team. In many cases, the supervisor is merely a people leader who leverages members of his team to business, functional or geographic units/organisations. The "buying" business, functional or geographic manager of course has a say in the hiring, as they'll be paying for it.

Are you willing to sacrifice every aspect of your social life for S$2.8k?

I was sent to Bintan when I was under the brief employment under a Singaporean company. The thing about Bintan is that while their resorts are generally awesome, the industrial estate is largely undeveloped and smack dab in the middle of nowhere. It takes 45 bloody minutes to travel by car from the resort port to the industrial estate!

There, you will find no shopping malls, no movie theatres, no restaurants, nothing. The closest semblance of civilisation you will find will be some small convenience stores and a nearby village which doesn't even have a proper tar road. I'm not too sure about your accommodation, but I was assigned one of the same hostel rooms that was occupied by the Indonesian operators. FYI, there won't be any fixed Internet connection, so your phone will be your best friend there.

Now you know why I was only 'briefly' employed in that company. They did not mention Bintan at all during the interview or in the contract, and their conduct was pretty unscrupulous, probably because they knew they would have a hard time getting professionals to stick around in Bintan for long. I was sent there on my third week with the company with little warning with an Indian engineer and a Filipino admin staff who were also newly hired, and all of us left by the second week.

If you die die also want to earn that S$2.8k and are willing to surrender your life for it, then go ahead. Otherwise, I am positive that there are plenty of better opportunities in Singapore. You just have to look hard enough.

Edit : If you want to get into the OnG industry, FMC Technologies is hiring graduate engineers a while back. Why don't you try applying there?

even nego also not much....normally i will change around $1k....if I change at KL i can get rm40 more on that $1k

Anyone rented a car in Singapore and drive back to Msia?
Need recommendation.

Have you dealt with them before?

btw, I plan to buy car, do you think 1 month driving course be able to polish my skills on the road?

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.
