A man who was waiting for the bus was shocked when he see the amount of people squeezing to go to work at a bus stop across admiralty MRT station.
There is zero social distancing and people were seen rushing to get up the bus.
This resulted in them squeezing next to each other, it is believed that this is happening every morning as the bus stop has bus services headed towards an industrial park in Woodlands/Senoko.
The netizen who posted the photo said:
“This is at opposite admiralty bustop..every morning you may see lots of are rushing to their work feeling scare all workers squeeze into same bus, even they waiting bus all also standing very close.”
A netizen who saw the photo said: “Blame the people who don’t follow safe distancing rule because life still has to go on. Not everyone has the “luxury” where their job can WFH.”
Lim Beng Wei, 57-years-old, pleaded guilty of 9 September to one charge of public nuisance; he had thrown a raw pork born into a Mosque’s balcony in full view of the members.
2 other charges for public nuisance, with one of them for throwing another bone and another for throwing butter onto the roof of the Singapore Musical Box Museum at 168 Telok Ayer Street, will be considered for sentencing.
What happened?
On 14 January, Lim had purchased 2 raw pork bones from a supermarket in Tanjong Pagar and headed to Masjid Al-Abrar at 192 Telok Ayer Street, with the intention of throwing it at the mosque.
He reached the building, took the bone from the packaging and threw it onto the balcony on the 2nd floor of the mosque.
He was caught by the mosque’s CCTV.
Lim was revealed to be suffering from Paranoid Schizophrenia during the time when he committed the offence.
A man shares his experience after his colleague sucks up to the CEO till everyone gets disgusted.
Here is the story:
Every company sure got angkat people, but this one at my company is extreme. We were having lunch with the CEO and my CEO said that he enjoys the hokkien mee from a food center. The angkat man said: “Same, I also like it”.
Then we were discussing beer and the CEO said that his favourite beer is Erdinger, the angkat man said: “What a coincidence, It’s my favourite too”. He will like whatever the CEO like, my other colleague look down at their rice and eat while secretly laughing while some others felt completely disgusted.
During a meeting, the CEO calls for a break and I head to the toilet, The CEO heads to the toilet as well, guess what? Mr Angkat followed him to the toilet. When we were in the toilet, the angkat master was not even using the toilet and he was just waiting at the corner.
Nabei, he waiting for girlfriend ah? Want to help CEO shake or not. After the CEO exit’s the cubicle he rushed forward to get the tap for the CEO. The CEO said thanks and left the toilet, he moves suddenly and pulls paper towels out of his pocket for the CEO to dry his hand.
This man has no substance, only want to Angkat to climb and not with his abilities. I think he can marry the CEO and change his surname to Neo as well.
I was at a job interview recently, and while the interview started pretty normal, things got messy after I got asked about my salary expectations.
I did some research beforehand but couldn’t find any info, so I just quoted my desired range which I thought was reasonable (4 to 6k for base), and explained why. Immediately, the whole conversation changed and they were really paggro whether I really had passion for the job, even sharing examples of how their current trainees doing traineeships were willing to make do with much less.
I then tried to turn the question around and ask what they had in mind, or if they could share more details around their compensation structure, but they refused to disclose it, just continuing that msg of passion > pay.
Personally, the pay is not the issue here, but the bigger issue is what appears to be very unprofessional behaviour. It would be fair if we have different expectations on pay, I’m all for negotiation and seeing where things go.
I’ve spoken to other employers, and even in times where we don’t align on pay expectations, we always kept things professional with none of this paggro behaviour, or using passion and the traineeship programme as a reason to justify paying less.
Steve Burns, the first ever host of the popular kids show Blue’s Clues, returned 19 years later on the anniversary of the show.
He explained why he packed up his bags 19 years ago in 2002, bidding farewell to an entire generation of children (me included) and said goodbye to Blue (the blue dog) and hopped onto a 2D school bus.
Nick Jr posted a video of Steve on their Twitter account, with Steve asking viewers: “Hi, you got a second?”
He then asked if we remembered running around and hanging out with Blue, finding clues.
And then one day he was like “guess what? Big news, I’m leaving.”
And we didn’t see each other for a really long time.
He said that he kinda got up and went to college, which was really challenging for him by the way but it was great and he managed to do all the things that he wanted to do.
He then pointed to the viewer: “And then look at you! Look at all you have done! and all you have accomplished ion all that time.
“We started out with clues and now it’s student loans and jobs and families; and some of it has been kind of hard, you know?”
He added that he really couldn’t have done any of the things that he has done without (your) help.
He further added that after all these years, he never forgot (you) ever.
I don’t know how to type out my whole story here. I just need an outlet to ‘let out’ whatever in me because I am really at the edge of breaking down. Please pardon me for all the grammatical errors. Mine is a shotgun marriage.
Before we married, I didn’t really love him as we both were always fighting and quarrelling due to his insecurities and all. His characters are totally the opposite of what I like for a boyfriend. I admitted that I was with him because I want to use him to get out of the memories of my ex.
Not too long, we got married because he promised me that he will change away his bad habits and going to be a good father to our baby. After married, I really put in all my efforts to be a good mother and a wife. So many times, this man belittled me, I endured.
My heart is so badly wounded by him yet I still chose to stay on because of our daughter. After being a sahm for so many years, I want to go out and work but I am 43 this year. So many years away from the work field who will still want to hire me? I have no saving, not much work experience.
What can I do? I have no extra help to look after my daughter who is P4 this year. Told him to enrol her in her school student care, he said he has no extra money for that. I want to leave this unhappy marriage. It is killing me every day.
A netizen shared with us today on how some customers who order deliveries are stuck up and think that because they are paying customers they are king.
Here is the story
“I have been doing delivery for a few years and have met lots of people in my line of work.
While most are nice, there are still quite a number of a*sholes who think that just because they pay for delivery, they are royalty.
Just two days ago, I went all the way down to Pioneer to deliver a heavy parcel to this student.
I followed the procedures and messaged and called her while I was leaving my warehouse but she did not respond or pick up my calls (five times in total).
I continued calling her when I was outside her doorstep and she still did not pick up (she opted for personal delivery so I either had to pass it to her or bring it back to my warehouse).
After trying for 10 minutes, I left and cancelled her delivery order as I still had quite a number of locations to go to.
10 seconds after I cancelled, she call me back and scolded me for cancelling and demanded me to in a rude manner to bring it back to her claiming that she paid for the delivery and I ought to wait till she responded to me (she was in the middle of a zoom class).
I refused her and told her that I have tried from the time I left the warehouse till I reached her place and the least she could do was to drop me a message to let me know her situation.
I also told her that I am not her slave and she is not the only one who has ordered delivery.
She threatened to complain to my company and to make me viral on social media but I told her to be my guest as I have all the evidence and records to use it against her if she tries.
The moment she heard these, she relented and begged me to come back as she really needed her stuff but I decided to reject her to teach her a lesson.
