Have rest time in between.

How do you keep track whether your workers steal
few grams of raw bn per day and sell it to underground market?

How did I miss this post? Are you still in the industry? Quite alot factory owner already gave up due to MCO and slow sales this year.

My raw material is in separate room, only manager & me can access the room. Each worker will take 1 container consisting of 100g each. Depending on skill level. Some worker take up to 2 container. Workers are not allowed to go in the room to take raw nest ya. Each container taken will be recorded in their paybook for end month wages.

Hi guys, wanna ask for your opinions. I'm looking for a part time job now to earn extra income aside from my full time. My full time job is in sales so more than often I will have some extra room/time to spare. One of my friends has recommended selling bird's nest (the processed and bottled type but without added sweetening). She offered to sell me RM 28 per bottle and mark up from there. Any sifu here can share their experience and thoughts if this is a workable side business?

while waiting for real value added sifus to reply to your query,....
i googled and found that,....

you mentioned that you have installed lights.....but that is not a good idea for according to this,...

"In fact they like it. When the light is switched on during dusk there would be lots of insects circling around the light. This attracts Bat as well and other birds that hunt for insect.

This lively activity around the light at the EH attracts Owl and tempting them to ambush from far. The Light also attracts Bats to fly into the farm. Once the Owl observed the movement of Bats and Swiftlets that fly into the farm their natural instant tells them that there are many preys in the farm.
