What do we do if our parcel was stolen by Grab delivery driver

Our grab delivery has been stolen by the driver Our delivery was completed just 10mins after it started The drop off image is black and we have not received it at ALL.

I have tried to contact grab support but its all the superficial “we will escalate this issue to the relevant departments” there is no help there

We want to lodge a police report but we do not have any information other than the drivers “name” and they refuse to provide any personal information due to “privacy”

I tried to google but there doesnt seem to be any information on the Grab website for this criminal situation

The most i saw was a compensation but that is on the Philippines website.

This is absolutely devastating because our parcel contained an airpods pro and i dont seem to find any help anywhere and i am worried about the how there is no accountability on criminal activity by drivers in Grab platforms.

This is so serious because this is a breach of criminal offence on the platform without any way of reporting

Please advise! Thank you

I really wanna be a housewife

Since I’ve moved in with my parents (and lost my job) I’ve been “paying rent” by basically being the housekeeper and nanny, and I LOVE it!

I wake up at five to cook breakfast for everyone and get them all off to work and school, I make their lunches too!

I do the dishes and laundry, sweep and vacuum, tidy and clean all day, I cook supper and get my younger brother and sister off to bed, I go to sleep exhausted and thinking about the food I’m gonna cook tomorrow and the chores I have to do!

I go grocery shopping by bus (cause I don’t have a car), and go to the market, I budget and schedule everyone’s work and school things, and I really love doing it!

I love when my arms hurt cause I’ve been scrubbing the bathroom, or my back aches from mopping the kitchen, and I WANT to be a stay at home wife, caring for my house and home and my family.

But with the way the world works nowadays, that’s unlikely. I still love what I’m studying, and look forward to getting my degree and getting a job in the career I chose.

but if I had 100% control over my choice, no money issues or anything, I would want to stay home. I know this is kinda dumb to be sad about, but it’s the job I want and know I’m probably not gonna get.

Found out my gf is an escort

I (M26) have been dating my gf (F22) for a year and started being suspicious when I saw another phone at her place which she never brings to mine.

She said that it is a work phone (she owns a clothing brand). My gut was telling me something is up and I saw her putting the password in her “work” phone during the day and unlocked it at night when she was asleep.

To say I was shocked to find out what I did would be an understatement, there were at least 15 different men that she was actively talking to and sleeping with and even went overseas with one of them (told me she’s going on her own to unwind, I never doubted this).

Now I’ve been really confused because it’s not like she’s broke and starving, she makes a decent amount through her actual business.

I confronted her and she started crying and owned up to it and also told me that she has kissed these men as well (which bothered me more than her sleeping with them because it was protected) and would do it because it’s good & quick money, I respect the hustle but I just feel so blindsided?

I asked her if she would have told me this if I hadn’t found out because i was planning to propose soon also, and she said “I honestly never wanted a single soul to find out and I would have never told you and I feel exposed that this thing came out totally against my will and I’m upset that you went through my phone without my permission”.

I don’t regret the fact that I went through her phone. She has quit for a month and is down and insecure and hating on herself but said she might start again and will tell me beforehand so I have a choice to decide if I still want to be in this relationship.

I still love her and do not think of her any different and if she decides to start again, I would most likely still be with her because I love her that much. But to say that the trust is still the same would be a lie. How to move forward with this? Am I being played?

Quitting job with no back up offer

I need some help regarding my career. I badly want to quit my work since April this year due to stressful and lack of motivation but I’m still here.

I really want to quit work and I already saved enough for me and my child (we currently live with my parents). I don’t have a husband eventho I hv a child that’s why I’m having a hard time deciding if I should quit or not.

I already update my resume and tried looking for other job BUT i’m also hving a hard time due to I can’t even go to interview or answer their phone calls due to I have work.

I’m just thinking if I quit now I can have more time attending interviews while taking care of my son.

I don’t know if this is the right decision. Can anyone give some advice 🙁 thank you

Netizens’ comments

• You mentioned you have saved enough for you and your son, is it adequate to last you for the months that you need to find a job?
  Assume you are not looking for jobs in the same industry (healthcare) since the stressful nature is your push factor. In that case, do you have any skills/expertise that you can bring to your intended role? How is the job market in the particular industry? If not ideal, you do have to cater more time to find a job.
  If there is an option to take unpaid leave or something, maybe take a break and find a job then.
  All the best!
• If you want to get a good increment over your current salary / be particular about a convenient location, it will be easier if you find another job while holding on to your current one. It isn’t impossible if you quit first, but you will definitely be more tempted to accept offers that aren’t very good.
  • (OP) This is one of my worries if i quit suddenly. But I really can’t find work while still employed. I’m a healthcare worker and my working hours are long each day. Can’t take leave as well so i rly don’t know. I ofc wanted to got a job offer first but I’ve tried it and the starting date was very soon and I still have to render for notice period.

My ex boss was the worst. He hated everyone in our team and me and my colleagues hated him as well. He hated me the most because I refused to do any work outside of work hours. My colleagues give in to his tyranny and do work whenever he asks but I refused to do it. So I was the first in his firing line. And just like I predicted, he fired me based on some bullshit reasons. This happened over a year ago.

About 6 months ago, they had a company party but the party was at a resort kind of thing so anyone could walk in. My previous colleagues invited me because I was also involved in that project before I was fired. And a lot of people were going to be there so no one would be focused on my presence. So I went there and that’s where I met my boss’ wife Lucy (not her real name). She was very sweet and she and I hit it off even though she was in her late thirties and I am only 25. Towards the end, I asked her how she ended up here and she told me. I was surprised that this a-hole got such a pretty, sweet wife. We talked about reading and books and so she invited me to her book club. I never told her that I worked under her husband.

At first i joined the book club because I like books as well and I just wanted to see if there were other cute girls there (lol). But then me and Lucy hit it off. We then started seeing each other as friends and then pretty soon she was telling me everything about her life. She was emotional with me and trusted me. Turns out her husband is an a-hole to her as well and she would tell me about her marriage troubles.

I was feeling attraction towards her because she was very pretty and we started connecting emotionally as well. I then realised that I could get two birds with one stone. I started flirting over the phone with her and making jokes and innuendoes. At first she was hesitant and then she started flirting back with me. And then I decided to escalate. So about a month ago I invited her to have a “friendly” dinner. We had a nice dinner and then went to have drinks at a bar nearby. I put my moves on her and flirted hard. She was tipsy and she started flirting with me as well. After a few drinks I invited her to my place to have some wine. She said yes. At that point I’m sure she knew what was going to happen.

We went back to my place and then after a glass of wine I kissed her. She kissed me back and then we had the most amazing night of passion. She told me the next day that it was a mistake and to never talk about it again. But then the next week she was in my bed again. I’m pretty sure it’s because she was having terrible s- with her husband and I was an unselfish lover. She was so surprised when I went down on her and told me that has never happened before. So I guess she likes sleeping with me. And so now she is having a full on affair with me. I regularly screw her and send her home to my ex boss.

I don’t regret screwing over my ex boss but I do regret using her like this. She’s a really sweet person and she doesn’t deserve this. Feels good to finally get this off my chest.

Hi, I am posting this due to constant worries that I am having over my financial situation and Uni studies.

I am 23M who ord-ed in May this year, and has been working in temp/contract jobs since May till the end of October this year. My parents want me to go for University, but my GPA in Poly was 2.5 so I am unable to qualify for all the local unis, other than SUSS Part-Time.

I have applied to James Cook Uni in Singapore, as well as no-bond sponsorship which will reduce the tuition fee to 50% of the total fees (The original school fee is 60k) – So with the sponsorship I am looking at about 30k worth of Tuition fees to pay. The reason I have applied for JCU is because it’s the only Uni with a course that is related to what I used to study in Poly, and I am granted several module exemptions which allows me to graduate faster.

I have many worries – I still have no clear idea on what I really want to do as a Professional Career (What if my studies actually doesn’t contribute to my future career?) and my family’s financial situation is a mess. My parents barely have any savings for retirement (Mother has only about 50k savings also not much in CPF, apparently my Father has only about 200k savings, no CPF).

My father is a foreigner (hence no CPF) who has been living overseas for the past 10+ years, and while I have been trying to have a proper discussion with him about my Uni, due to time differences and his tight schedule so far I am unable to have a proper talk with him (only had short 3~5min conversations) even after several weeks.

I am feeling very frustrated and horrible now… Parents are getting old, my father wants to retire soon and my mother told me that she is depending on me and my younger sibling for her retirement. Considering my parents’ total savings would be only about 250k, I feel so helpless right now… And I don’t want my younger sibling to worry about supporting my parents. I have been constantly thinking whether enrolling into JCU is the right choice to make, and contemplated several other options.

Now, JCU wants me to make a decision by end of today, on whether I want to continue my enrolment with them (Have to make first payment of 12k), as school is starting lessons next week. I have only about 14k, so I will need to borrow from my parents the remaining 16k to study in JCU.

I can’t help but worrying that finance-wise I have no time to be studying full-time and that I should be working, gaining work experience while figuring out what I truly want as a Career. Studying at SUSS part-time would also be cheaper than JCU’s tuitions fees even with its sponsorship (SUSS 15~20k vs JCU 30k) allowing me to work and study at the same time, but there will be no exemptions and I would only start next year July, so I will likely only graduate in 2027/2028 (In comparison, JCU allows me to graduate in 2024/2025). This would also mean that I am turning down the JCU sponsorship and most likely will not be given a second chance. Considering that most job positions with decent or better pays require at least a Bachelor’s, I am very torn between my options and deciding what is the correct path to take.

I am very sorry for the long walls of text… But I feel so lost now and I hope to know other’s opinion on my situation and your recommendations on what I should do… Thank you.
