Wow....v13...time flies...

And....without me realizing...I would have been in here for 1 year already by this month....

Almost every single time when I am in a cab the driver would start to complain foreigner as well...(I take cab everyday to customer site)

I would say I got used to it....they never realize I myself is foreigner....I always respond with "oh...ok..."

Then they will continue with their stories like....

"u know...government should increase all local people salary first before bringing in more foreigner...how can they bla bla bla"
I replied in my heart "If you are such a good planner you wouldn't be driving taxi already lor"

Anyway, hatred towards foreigner exists in every single country to some extent.
Just get used to it as you can't shut people's mouth

My thought exactly.....
And when their bright children go overseas next time...those young generation face the same thing...
It's a vicious cycle

Hi guys,

I was just wondering does Singapore Technologies hire Malaysian? Or they only consider PR and singaporean only? Any Malaysian (non-PR) working there mind to clarify?

I believe there is something to do with the meter ticking?
Perhaps accelerate + brake continuously will make meter tick more for the same distance?
Since not their car...they just don't care about maintenance cost...daily rental cost fully utilize....

How do you deal with when someone come to you and tell you it's their seat?

Oh man, when I first came to here....I had no idea about the tissue thingy....
Thought someone just forgot and left it there....

I just pretend like nothing happened and sat on the so called reserved(later on I knew)

Got yelled by an auntie....

Guys,

Other than aeroline...what other express coach stops at 1 utama?
Cos I find that aeroline is quite pricey...any alternatives?

Hi All,

I seriously need some advice here.
My contract with my current company is going to expire on Monday, 8th.

I still have 1 day annual leave to utilize before contract expires.

Now, I guess you all know that for contract based jobs, I don't have to resign or give any sort of notice, provided 1 year contract has been fully served.

My current company actually intended to renew me. But they do it in the final week prior to contract expiry.
Anyone who cares about their future will not wait till final week...which means....I have already found a new and better paying job elsewhere.

Now, here's the problem. I have got 1 day annual leave remain and wanted to offset it so instead of working until Monday, my last day will be Friday.
But he won't let me utilize the annual leave!
My boss actually BURNED himself thinking I have got nowhere else to go, therefore decided to take it slowly on renewing me.....

He emailed: "Monday is your last day, then why are you taking annual leave on Monday? We don't have time for that"
(More than 50% of people left under his brilliant leadership, therefore that is why "we don't have time for that occurs")

Can anyone actually give me some advice??

He still proudly thinks this is totally normal to notify me on final weeks whether he wants to renew me or not. And refused to let me utilize my final day of annual leave I am entitled to.

Now this kind of "company leaving" is totally different from resigning from permanent position where you must give notice period.
Since there is no notice period involved, even the last day is considered a "normal employment day" and not "notice period" whereby I can't take any leave.....

I am bad with debating on this kinda stuffs....anyone can tell me how I should reply?

It might sounds weird....but my company policy states annual leave can't be encashed~

This chinaman boss intended to burn that....I wanted to utilize all my leave long ago...but like you said, subject to approval~

Anyway, if you were in my shoe, what will you do?
I prefer to just utilize my leave instead of begging them to encash it....

How can I say it in a professional way and not in an emotional way?

HELP?

People who met their minimum requirement still got rejected....

If you can't even meet the minimum requirement.....then I guess the answer is pretty clear.

Hi Guys,

I am currently holding EP and came across this on MOM website:




Does the statement imply if I change employer, my new employer just have to inform MOM and no application required?
There is not much information other than this. Please advice

I see....I will try to verify it with MOM then

Because previously I was holding S Pass....changed employer...cancelled S pass then upgrade to EP.... Thanks!

I prefer not to call it job hopper
Cos after got my first job in sg....I was approached by different offers
Other than $$ I do take into considerations on other stuffs before actually jumping.
