Hi all,
I would like to have some advices from you all.
I am a fresh grad from marketing background, plan to work in singapore in future.
But my cousin bro told me that the salary will be low for a fresh grad with no experiences at all to work in singapore.
He suggests me to work in malaysia for 1 or 2 years only look for a job in singapore.

any advices from you all?
*
and the salary is high for fresh grads in Malaysia ?

It should be milli second.  <8ms this is what always shown when you do a ping test.

Haha. Think so. Always saw the figure when doing speed test

Nope. I got the minimum 7 days. I was desperate for work that time. So I just sign the contract.

Any kind soul can advise? Laws are very complicated.
*
you can talk to your boss. if he refused to listen then just report to MOM. else, just resign and find another weekday job. what's preventing you from leaving anyway ?

Does your employment letter state that your working hours can vary depending on the needs of the company (or smtg of that effect?)
If yes, then you have no case. Just resign.
Anyway even if it dosen't state in yr contract, i believe you have a very weak case at best.
Otherwise imagine all the complaints from bankers (me included) who needs to put in more than yr 54 hours work week!  tongue.gif
*
no contract is above MOM regulations. as simple as that. no one give a f*#% how many hours you put in.

Ya. Similarly no one gives a f*%k about your opinions so why don't you f%$k off.

comparing your pathetic working life with others who seek an answer for something which is clearly stated otherwise, is moronic, which suits your character judging from all your past postings.

not entirely true but it's getting harder for East Malaysian to get a work pass. Reason is due to some social unrest coz by a few from East Malaysia.

I forgot to mention that I only took the bus up to M.Y custom.Will the money still be deducted as $2? If so,is there any other cheaper way to cross Causeway from SG custom?
*
I think stop at MY custom is cheaper that stop at Larkin/Kota Raya. Not much, probably by 20cents only. a cheaper way would take those 'bas kilang' ferry factory workers to JB. the current rate is s$1 to MY custom. smile.gif

Last I recalled I did not ask for your opinion on my working hours.
Keep your comments to yourself.
If you have nothing constructive to offer then i suggest you shut the f&^k up.
Nobody need your smartass opinion here.
*
iirc you compared your pathetic working life when someone is trying to find an answer for max working hours issue instead of guiding him, even to say its normal. Well, as I said, judging from your previous posting, we all already know who's the non-constructive moron.

Let's recap.
1) Dendroid_King said he works long hours and think it's not fair.
2) I replied it's the norm as i work about 54 hours a week as well.
3) All of a sudden, from nowhere Mackiddo came and and said told me to F*&k off about my pathetic working hours

I don't know about you but its clear to all who is the troll here and who's the idiot here.
And here, this idiot keeps harping about previous posting. Well, i guess nobody wants to know coz nobody's interested.
Mr. Troll, if you decide to continue trolling i suggest you go to /k/.
That place would suit you just fine!
*
you tell people your pathetic working hours is norm which is not. You tried to manipulate him further by asking him not to seek further clarification. And you are the moron who trying to twist the fact just because you have a pathetic working life and think everyone should be like you, the norm. well the thing is, nobody is interested in your post since day 1, judging from all your previous post.

Mackiddo and Mercury,

The both of you offer very constructive advise. Thanks to both of you.

Please don't quarrel because of me. I am sure this is just a misunderstanding. Sometimes in life it doesn't matter who is right. When I am angry, I would also say things that hurt others which made the quarrel worse.

Anyway I just read more carefully and the max hours from the employment act does not apply to me as my salary is above 2k.

It's time for me to move on and to get a new job as soon as possible.

Thanks to both of you. And please try to forget the conflicts.
*
I'm cool. it's no conflict. just exchanging opinions.

Hi guys, good morning


2)
I heard LTA will have an alternative to allow Malaysian PR to drive Malaysian car in SG.
But you need to apply for a special license from LTA. Thereafter, you are good to go.
Anyone tried before?
*
never heard of it before. why would the LTA even wanna consider allowing that ? I have heard of Singaporean who stay in JB long term can apply to drive MY car into Singapore. BUT, they have to pay all the duties that applies to Sg car, probably including COE. laugh.gif

what is the standard number for annual leaves in SG, for a corporation...and also medical leaves?
Thanks

why would there be a cap on medical leaves that you could take per year ?

QUOTE(seantang @ Dec 7 2012, 08:32 AM)
About RM600 for a return trip and S$20 + RM15 for taxi fare. About 3-4X the price of bus tickets.

Question is... How much do you value your time and convenience? This does avoid an 8-9 hour overnight red eye bus ride... which basically burns one day of your weekend or annual leave each way as well because you're sleepy the entire day.
*
I do agreed on this. It depends on how one value their time and the level of comfort. For example, even though the travelling time from Sg - KL is pretty same for bus and flight (inclusived check in time) , I would pay more just to have the comfort of sitting at airport lounge sipping coffee waiting for my flight rather than be on the bus.

MC are full pay leave, there must be a limit. There after you have to take no pay leave or sabbatical.

Will it be nice to have year long fully paid MC for "depression/stress" and the treatment is to go for a year long vacation?
*
but that's not a cap on how many days you could MC, it's just a agreement/contract on what's your pay when you on MC.

QUOTE(deodorant @ Dec 11 2012, 10:56 AM)
Just sharing. My company MC is 30 days (if no hospitalization) or extended up to 60 days (if hospitalization required). Other than that, there is "prolonged illness leave," which only applies if you are "certified ... to have contracted tuberculosis, cancer, poliomyelitis, leukaemia, leprosy, long-term mental or heart disease which requires prolonged treatment." In this case, it is 6 months full pay followed by 6 months half pay, then no more pay liao.
*
but there's no cap on MC, just that you do not receive any pay for prolong MCs
