GIRL WORKING AT CLOTHES SHOP, BOSS KEEPS SHOUTING & SPYING ON WORKERS VIA CCTV

0

A netizen shared how his girlfriend started working at a clothes shop and her boss keeps shouting at her and watching them on the CCTV.

Here is the story:

“This is just a warning to people finding a temp job.

My gf just started working at a popular japanese clothes chain in the west as a temp job. It’s located in a shopping mall.

She and her other colleagues were always being shouted at and scolded by the store manager there. Not only her, other workers too. They only do this in the staff room of course.

It’s fine if they’re getting scolded because of their own mistakes. But sometimes the store management gets personal and mention stuff like “your mother/father never teach you is it?” Scolding would be in front of other employees, so there are witnesses.

The management also doesn’t trust the employees at all, that they need to check cctv to monitor employees. For example, you were supposed to do X from 1-4pm. But store manager was away during that time or perhaps busy. She/he will claim that she/he did not see you do your work and pick a fight with you. She/he will then check the CCTV to ensure you indeed did what was supposed to be done. If the work was already done, why still need to check CCTV???

I would say; to those who are still working there, try to stand up to these people. Better still, get evidence and make the toxic workplace visible to the world. Bosses should learn how to treat their employees right, and such bosses should not exist.”

ENCIK TAN PARENT COMPANY FEI SIONG FINED 4K FOR FLOUTING 1 METRE SAFE DISTANCING

0

Fei Siong Food Management was slapped with a S$4,000 fine today (11 Jan) for one of their outlet’s failure to ensure that diners’ chair were kept to a 1m safe distancing space from other tables.

The outlet in question is the Encik Tan outlet at Orchard Road where Fei Siong Food Management is a parent company of.

Prior to this incident, Fei Siong was given up to eight composition or out of court fines for violations of control orders at other outlets which they owned.

They currently have 150 outlets across Singapore.

Inspected outlet at 313@Somerset

Officers from the Singapore Tourism Board (STB), went to carry out enforcement checks at Encik Tan’s 313@Somerset outlet on 14 May 2021 at about 7.50pm.

They stood and observed the outlet running its operations for about five minutes and thereafter started to measure the distance between chairs of customers dining at the outlet after seeing that no action was taken by the staff to ensure that customers kept to the safe distancing requirements.

Instead of being 1m apart, the distance which the officers measured were 44cm, 79cm and 88cm respectively.

Flouting of rules caused by manpower shortage

In Fei Siong’s defense at a court session, Mr Lew, the lawyer representing Fei Siong said that Fei Siong fell short of the safe management measures due to the lack of manpower at the outlet.

He added that it was dinner time on Friday and the manpower shortage meant that there was inadequate manpower to ensure that diners adhered to the measures.

He asked the court to consider the difficulties faced by Fei Siong in enforcing the rules at its 150 outlets across Singapore, and added that Fei Siong always had a safe management plan for all its outlets and that brand managers will always communicate it to the employees at the outlets.

On top of communicating with the employees on such measures, the managers will also go down to the outlets occasionally to see that the measures are kept.

He ended by saying that the mere few cm which the outlet were short by were not done in defiance.

Penalties

In sentencing, the judge said that the fact where the group had been given composition fines for eight occasions had to be taken into consideration.

Fei Siong could have been given a fine of up to S$10,000 for flouting the measures.

FOREIGN WORKER JAILED FOR SMASHING DORM MATE ON HEAD WITH STONE PESTLE

0

A 34 y.o foreign worker from Bangladesh, Moni Lal Chan, was sentenced to two months of imprisonment today (11 January) for hitting his dormitory mate, 25 y.o Ahmed Rabbi on the head with a stone pestle.

Moni pleaded guilty to one charge of voluntarily causing hurt.

The incident

Moni had hit Ahmed on his head with a stone pestle as the latter had insulted Moni’s dead mother after Moni had given the younger man some advice on how to be more efficient with the laundry.

Both were in the laundry room and Moni was unhapppy with Ahmed as he only put his own dirty laundry into the washing machine when he could have collected all the dirty laundry from the rest of his roommates and washed them together.

Ahmed was also told by Moni that washing the clothes together could save costs, which made Ahmed unhappy and he insulted Moni’s recently deceased mother.

This affected Moni as his mother had only passed away six months ago and his memory of her was still fresh.

The pair then were separated by the supervisor but Moni did not forget about it.

Hit Ahmed on head

On 1 December, Moni went into the kitchen area where Ahmed was preparing his meals for the following day and confronted him about the previous incident with regards to the washing of laundry as well as the insult where Ahmed had thrown to Moni regarding his mother.

Both of them started to argue again when suddenly, Moni picked up a stone pestle weighing about 500grammes and hit Ahmed once on his left forehead and twice on his back.

This caused Ahmed to bleed on his forehead and he sought the help of his dormitory mates and was subsequently sent to Ng Teng Fong Hospital for treatment.

Moni was then arrested by the Police on 2 December around 1am.

A medical report then confirmed that Ahmed had suffered a 2cm long cut to his forehead which required five stitches and some injuries on his left paraspinal muscle.

For his injuries, Ahmed was given five days of medical leave.

Penalties

Moni could have been given a jail term of up to three years, fined up to S$5,000 or both for voluntarily causing hurt to Ahmed.

GUY JOKES WITH NURSE ABOUT HIS SESAME STREET FANTASY, NURSE STUPIDLY BELIEVES

0

A story was seen online which a guy shared about his experience at an unknown hospital which he had been going to see the doctor for an infection at his private area for the longest time in his life.

He shared that in one of his visits to the hospital, he had to release his ‘soldiers’ for the doctor to do tests on and the nurse guided him into a children’s room in the hospital to collect his ‘solders’ as there were no more available rooms.

The nurse then apologised for the lack of rooms and ‘materials’ to aid him in his collection of his ‘soldiers’ to which he joked that the sesame street characters, Ernie and Bert was enough ‘aid’ for him.

The nurse took his joke seriously and then went to share it with the other nurses who laughed continuously at the man while he was inside the room.

Here is the story

“Ok, here we go. I had to release into a cup to count my soldiers because I had a longtime infection in my private area.

Nurse said: “Sorry, you have to use the children’s room, every other room is occupied.”

So as I enter the room I see Sesame Street books, stuffed animals, colourful walls and a clock on the wall having animals as numbers.

The nurse tells me that there are no adult magazines available and I tried to be funny and said “Doesn’t matter, Ernie and Bert are enough for me to get off.”

She did not get the joke. Then she asked me if I know how to ‘do it’ and gave me a quick rundown on how to ‘do it’, all the while looking disgusted and angry.

Ok, so there I was, in a childrens room in a urology clinic trying to do it into a cup while stuffed animals were looking at me with a nurse right in front of the door.

I heard her telling the other nurses my fantasy about Sesame Street, they all laughed.

I had to start over.

When I got to the point where I thought that I could fill the cup, the clock on the wall started to “moo” and make super loud cow noises because it was 12 o’clock.

I must have sighed very loudly because the whole floor went nuts and started laughing even harder.

I had to start over again.

When I finally finished and left the room the nurses were still laughing.”
