I know some fella around age of 28, they are earning only RM3K+, spend all their money no savings at all. Money all goes to cigratte, pub, clubs, cybercafe. This kind of lifestyle still can go on? Waste alot of money, especially they go to cybercafes and mamak everynight (some are mamak hoppers, LOL), nut fellas. Up to them.

Wrong section! Go to Job Enlistment.

If earning RM4K before age of 30 also considered pretty good already.

See luck which company that you join and also your skill. If you are hardworking and you can one leg kick, I'm sure the boss will pay you even more.

Alot of things to consider of, how to make the boss like you, how to make all colleagues like you and etc.

If people like you, people will vote for you and you get promoted.

Attitude also very important, always punctual to work, do your work properly all the time, if you want to "snake", make sure you "snake" at the right time.

I have nothing against "snaking". Everybody snake in office. It's hard to believe if you work daily from 9am - 5pm without snaking even for an hour.

I'm currently doing my internship at some big firm in Malaysia, and most of the people here are ZOMFGWTFNOSKILL&KNOWLEDGE. Most of them are doing Sales & Marketing (they use word, excel most of the time), I'm doing another that requires another different type of softwares which not everyone know how to use. And I always get the job done at the end of the day. I have to do part of all of their work, it's my responsibility anyway. I can do their Sales & Marketing too if I have too.

Most of these guys (male & female) are close to 30, some are above 30. They are Degree holders mostly, and some of them look weird when they see some mp3 player that can act as thumbdrive. One of them said "What is this, where is the head"? Let's not talk about Hardwares, since they are not IT geek. There are also alot of things that they don't know, but I was there to save the day. They basically "goyang-kaki" almost everyday, what the hell, go and do something for god sake. No wonder these people are going no where, because they do nothing and snake too much. Snake only when you need a break or something, but they snake the whole day. Making phone calls, browsing the internet, gossiping, smoking. A few fellas gone out for smoking for 30 minutes? Do you need 30 minutes to smoke?

I've earned some respect from some of the Managers and also the biggest in the company. I did showed some of my skill infront of them. I'm always punctual, start work at 9am, I'm already there at 8:30am. I have no problem going to work on time, because all this while I never once late to any classes, and my attendance are all PERFECT! I hate to be late for something, that's why I always plan my time properly.

I did quite alot of things for this company at the moment. I get paid RM500+ monthly, the boss might consider increasing more, but will need to get approval from the higher top person. Hopefully...

Though I'm just an intern, but I think I already tahpao-ed most of them. The things that they can do, I can do as well. And there are alot of things that I can do, and they can't do. I think most of them are just plain lazy, don't bother to explore more and doing the same things that they do for the past 10 years?

IMO, not only skill is important, general knowledge must also not left out.

Lulz, I just feel sorry for people like them. I heard they are earning RM2K+ only, close to RM3K.

Some jobs they pay high incentive and high OT. Easily can reach there.

Incentive = RM1,000 - RM2,000

OT 2 hours = RM20 - RM50

Btw, not doing sales.

Better not let the age 28 bug you. At the end of the day, is whether how much you keep in the bank.

let say a 28 year old earning RM6K, RM1.5K for car, RM2K for house, RM1K monthly expenses. RM1.5K in bank, or worse if you go shopping and mamak everynight, probably saved only RM500.

i can say most people will buy car first to show off, paying more for petrol and spare parts. they may look rich on the outside but they are poor on the inside.
