well, for those folks whose family also in JB different story lor. But I think the majority of our stay JB work SG folks their family is actually in KL or KK or some other place, no?

Self righteous idiot

Anyone can tell me why there is not even one economic mixed rice stall in Singpaore that allows their patrons to pick up their dishes individually like wat we used to in malaysia?

lol... i forgot whats its like to scoop your own dishes... but at least the cost here will follow some standard rate card instead of dependent on the uncles mood.

Anybody know anyone hiring in SG now? i'm available

How much isit normally? But the scope size, will it depend on mood as well?

The stalls generally charge on the types and number of dishes you select. This is more objective and as you build rapport with the owners/workers, you are rewarded with some visible top-up as a repeat customer.

In Msia, you decide the amount you desire but with no weighing system, the stall owners may charge you indiscriminately.

As both systems are still subject to abuse, I prefer the former which creates less ground for dispute.

At first I thought you mean returning your own tray after you finish your meal

He's just telling the truth

you want the truth? you cant handle the truth..

The truth of u tipping The Hooter's gal ? Can share the learning captured for Malaysians here. Maybe I should summon deodorant

Some not so fortunate, own family, parents and in-laws each chose one place to stay, hard to juggle.

Maybe they got other commitment lo. Or feel better staying in home country.

Staying too close to work make you feel like you never get out of your workplace. I stayed within walking distance to my office for few months. Looking out the window I can see my boss room, feel like the boss is watching me Endure until the free NDP fireworks and F1 then move back to old place after renovation. Prefer trees than concrete jungle. For the tree people!

Singapore announces tighter rules for hiring skilled foreigners
http://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/singapore...-041034777.html

SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Singapore's government announced rules on Monday that will force many companies operating in the city-state to consider Singaporeans for skilled job vacancies before turning to candidates from abroad.
From August 2014, firms with more than 25 employees must advertise a vacancy for professional or managerial jobs paying less than S$12,000 (5,992 pounds) a month on a new jobs bank administered by the Singapore Workforce Development Agency for at least 14 days. Only after that period can the company apply for an employment pass to bring in a foreign national.
The city-state will also raise the qualifying salaries for employment pass holders to at least S$3,300 a month, up from the current S$3,000, starting in January 2014.
"Even as we remain open to foreign manpower to complement our local workforce, all firms must make an effort to consider Singaporeans fairly," said acting manpower minister Tan Chuan Jin.
"Singaporeans must still prove themselves able and competitive to take on the higher jobs that they aspire to," he added.
The Ministry of Manpower said it will also scrutinise companies that "have a disproportionately low concentration of Singaporeans" in professional or management positions compared with others in the industry.

When utter filth like you have the gall to call other people racist, sexist etc... you're getting it whether or not you think you need it.
