if you work for cash...$$ is good for you.
if you work and meet some female,... so is very bad for you....and bad for your career...

############
just like the indonesian worker at m'sia,never have a good life if you found a bad BOSS!

Hai, everyone... it's has been almost a month working in SG. SG is quite good actually but the thing I most dislike is I can't drive (no car to drive), not like working in KL... I can drive gals around yamca, go lepak after working hrs as and when I like..but here everyday is MRT, bus, MRT, bus......

I believe after working here for 4-5 yrs then when U wanna go back to KL, you will forget how to drive even though when you are once a super king road speeder...

Oh... you remain my the last day in s'pore.. adjustly i'm driving my own car all the way from m'sia to s'pore to bring back all my stuff to home.My experience driving in s'pore just only one time and also is the last,lucky not received a "saman".
