Hi guys need some advise, I just got job offer to work at SG...but the company offer me accommodation and all car expenses so i can travel from jb to sg to work everyday..
the thing is.. i dont know how early i shud wake up to travel from jb to sg by car.... heard its superb jam every morning...
any of u guys can roughly tell me wat time shud i start goin off from house say.. i m working at office hour? and how long it takes to go back from sg to jb at like...7-8pm?
*
From experience, 7 to 9 am/pm is the worst time to cross the causeway for weekdays. Try to avoid this timing. I've been driving in/out for a few years.

and then stayin in Johor is dangerous? lolx..my fren telling me crime rate is pretty high there... sad.gif

That's is the sacrifice you have to make. Else, if the same, everyone would have move to JB by now. Typically crime rate is much higher in JB than Singapore. That's a fact. It's pretty hard to define 'dangerous' but if you ask me, i think it's a 'cowboy' town tongue.gif .

bcuz my work requires me to drive my car...and Msia registered car cant stay over in SG for more then 30 day a year rite?

hmmm..the traffic seems ok..but wat time was that? LOL

Never heard of 30days/year rule for foreign vehicle just that you have to ensure "the vehicle is kept or used outside Singapore for a total period of 6 hours or more everyday"

you have to check the cam during peak hour. now midnight of coz ok biggrin.gif
you could also consider using 2nd link which cause more for the toll.

if in KL and you are getting 3k pay, it is also almost eat-sleep-work kinda rotation. What else you want if you cant get a higher paid job? You only can imporve once you progress in life.

If you are getting sgd10k now....do you think a billionaire will want the kind of life with a 10k salary? Different people living in different income brackets see things differently.

I've already stated, for me personally I'm unable to do that. If you are in the situation, you should ask yourself, why can't you get a better pay? what's lacking for you to get a better pay?

crossing the causeway is not much of a problem if you using 2nd link. The only headache is the expressway, especially AYE & PIE, always jammed on weekdays peak hours. You have to hit the expressway latest by 7am to avoid unnecessary delay.
