I never do that before but from my analysis; because, at the end of the day it involves payment from own pocket? If someone is earning 4k/mth, a payment in lieu of 3 months period will be 12k edi, assuming no more AL to deduct. 12k is a huge sum for an individual. Not all companies is willing to pay for the notice period. 

Whereas if you tender and serve the notice period (since no job in sight), you can just clock in sharp, ular here and ular there, clock out sharp and your gaji still rolling in for the next 3 months. Then on last day can just MIA if wanna avoid those pesky farewell parties. lol

But at least u can have a confirmed income after u left the company even though u have to pay on your own for the short notice. Rather than tender 3 months notice and then after that use your own savings to survive for god know how long. I’m actually in between these 2 scenarios - either to pay on my own for the short notice or resign with 3 months notice without any job offer.

Ha, yes. Another job related thread in kopitiam. I have been contemplating to tender my resignation since September last year but I have been holding back due to various reasons. One of it is I have no job offer currently that will encourage me to throw the letter to my HR dept.

For those fellow members in here who tendered without any job offer in sight, I really respect you guys for being so courageous.

why not? my ex colleague joined for less than 3 months and she resigned cause can't stand my boss.The best part is she's bonded and base on hr calculation she needs to pay back estimated 100k for the bond.

you thought hawker is easy?
you know the time, energy and effort they took preparing ingredients before opening the stall?
you know the worry and anxious if no customer for that day?
you know the confusion and error in mixing ingredients during peak and rush hour?
you have the ability in receiving end of criticism and scolding from customers?
you know the hardship of cleaning up utensils, cookwares, stall etc. after already tiring from the above?

Wait what there's actually jobs that can make you rich? like a millionaire kind rich?

Working salary jobs definitely can't, unless u got big cable to go in glc executives.

Now for myself I can't say millionaires kind of rich but at least u have some financial freedom + Flexible and ability to give back to society ala volunteer work or donations.

What i mean is how long are you going to sit at the side with your money waiting for an  eventual collapse ? It could be years and even decade.

Just think of the lost opportunity of not putting all those free cash flow into work. But once you put your cash to work, you are now expose to an economic slow down.

It's very hard to time the market. Everyday you sit at the sideline, will mean your money is also sleeping.

i got your point, even Buffett also can't say for sure when is the time to reach deepest lvl of the sink hole

just like 2 months back GENM was dropped till 2.6, people think it will drop further, manatao today climbed to 3.3, lost of opportunity

but then there is always risk involved in whatever decisions, just don't put all eggs in one basket

if you don have commitment that it is ok to do it.... if you have, you will sh@t in your pants until you find a new job.... ppl tends to just find temporary job until they get actual job

No, A-class is never a cheap car to begin with. Any cars above 200k isn't cheap.

Didn't you get the memo? The other day in one thread many said A-class is the cheapest model so should not 'kuda' and shouldn't expect too much or be treated as least slightly better.. 'Victim' fault apparently whistling.gif

Maybe truly many 20k here cry.gif

wah, sound like my kompeni new policy. Since turnover rate damn high among the fresh grad, they come up with policy which is, all freshgrads is bonded for 2 years. If in this 2 years we break our bond, then we need to pay back the kompeni "monthly salary * 10". So if our salary is RM2k a month, then need to multiply by 10. So means need to pay back RM20k to kompeni. In the end, most of us try to run-away during probation

whats the justification of the bond?

unless company promised in B&W that it will provide you sufficient job related professional trainings and sponsor u for the professional exams

other than that, who the fuck willing to be bond

Since i practiced mindfulness so not too affected with the dramas nowadays..otherwise memang depressed gila. yearly performance review also not that good coz i only do bare minimum to fulfill...rest of my free time i rather mind my own business...

What job i have now is quite good, that's why i refuse to throw letter. i wait for the company to terminate me or offer VSS, at least got a bit severance package.

Now in my mid 30's i guess looking for a new job is very hard...and most probably even more shittier with less pay than i got now. In fact after this handover/contract expires i malas mau keja lagi. I consider it as early retirement so that i have a lot of time to pursue my other interest & hobbies. Im currently saving hard filling up my ASB2 quota, with ASB1 maxed up years before...plus a min div of 12% yearly i guess it's ok to fund my simple minimalist life in my late 30s.
