I've checked again. They never said shit about it. BUT in the employee handbook, they did list lateness as a serious offense. Sleeping in office also a serious offense.

Not forgetting to mention their "list of workplace offences, major and minor" spans 7-8 pages. Ridiculous though it's like they are scared of getting offended.

if it's in the handbook, then they have the ground to fire you la.
there must be a precedent for them to put that rule into the handbook in the 1st place, especially for manufacturing/service based industries. The solution is simple, don't like the workplace rules just leave them and find another alternative that suits you.

Yeah and over being late by 5-10mins? Albeit delivering results consistently (or relatively)? We aren't manufacturing/service based company. We aren't sales exec either. This is like a case of "
一点不能放开" situation.

And the "don't like it, then quit/give up" approach? Childish tbh. I don't mind joining a company that pays me shit for the cinapek amount of work they dump on me but hey look I'm still here! I c an leave but that means they'd go back to a china-like company with crap branding. Typical Malaysian mindset.

i know where you are coming from and someone already mentioned this before, this only happens typically in Japanese/China based companies. I'm not defending this rule.
