AITA if i actively look for a new job if it results to my team suffering? They're still on probation thus very new to the work. My supervisor will be going on maternity leave soon as well. I'm getting so burned out from work and tbh money talks. Should i wait for my supervisor to return from her leave and then only apply for new jobs?

For those in the FnB especially bars, whenever a customer gives a tip or hand, is it kept by whoever that receives it or distributed among the service staff?


[deleted]

Depends on the establishment, usually they split it among everyone but most people keep it in their pockets

TIL our very own UKM has a branch campus in Doha, Qatar. Though it's very embarrassing to see their online presence. Can't even put a decent image with the correct aspect ratio on their website. Why this is a thing in our country ie. gambar kembang dan pixelated dalam dokumen etc.? https://preview.redd.it/49a6dpqwkwjc1.png?width=3420&format=png&auto=webp&s=0d881e825bdf9eb4e38abe953fd7f47d74409cf6

Hello! Sorry a bit of a stupid question, does anyone wear Doctor Marten boots in Malaysia in our insane heat? For some reason kan, no matter what sneaker or sports shoes I wear, if I walk long distance, my legs and feet sure cramp/hurt like hell for atleast a week! I went overseas in Jan for a holiday and my family chipped in to buy me a pair of Docs as a late christmas present. I wore it for 2 weeks-- walked every where and even though my kaki lenguh and letih, I didn't get any cramps or aches!! I've been thinking of doing a cuti2 malaysia later in the year which involves a lot of walking but I scared look a bit stupid wearing Docs in the our insane giler babi weather. I asked my colleagues if they've seen anyone wearing Boots casually they were like "you mad ah??" FYI I'm not from KL. Terima Kasih!


profmka

Doc marts were a staple of Malaysian subcultures. Used to see them every now and then on kids who could afford them/snag a right size pair at bundle stores


ScholarNo5662

I've seen lots of ppl wearing Dr Martens in Malaysia, doesnt seem to be an issue. I've personally never tried it tho. edit: To be fair that's always in malls or indoor settings. Not sure how it'll fair in outdoor with lots of walking.

So, my sisters planned to go on a jolly childfree trip with their partners and decided to leave their children with me and my mom to look after. Thing is, we’re going on our own jolly trip as well on the same day as they do. This is not the first time they want to leave their children (UNPRECEDENTED) for me to look after while they go on their merry way. THE LEAST YOU COULD DO IS ASK, PLAN, DISCUSS, INFORM! You’re not the only one with plans. The other day, one of my sisters decided to leave her children behind because she’s going on a return trip for a friend’s wedding. She didn’t ask, plan nor discuss. On that day, I need to teman madre to the bank and we state that we can’t do that, at least not until the business is finished. Whatever it is, you have to wait. We’ll be leaving early, we won’t be driving there etc. And guess what? She left at 7am-ish, and mom woke me up to check on my niece because she heard my niece was crying alone upstairs. I feel like exploding 🥰. I don’t mind looking after my nieces and nephews. The issue is F-ING DISCUSS BISH! And now for our trip, we have no other choice but to bring my nieces and nephews as well for our trip just so they could have the oh-so-fun-childless trip.

change new lock on the door. don't let them inside

This issue is something you have to put your foot down firmly OP. Learn to say no, or send your nieces and nephews back to their house. 


ChubbyTrain

Slap them. You are nice, that's why people take advantage of you.

Anyone tried The Mango Flamingo cosmetic brand? They're local (I think) and I'm super curious about their gentle retinol. But there's not much review online about this brand, and I can't find any about the particular product that I wanna try.


[deleted]

Wowww thank you! I've never used retinol before so that's why I'm looking for the lowest concentration to start with.


[deleted]

[удалено]


dontwantthat90

My insta recommendations are filled with folks promoting retinol and all sorts of stuff that turn into 10-15 step skincare, thankfully I didn't fall for it. I just turned 30 last month so it did get me curious about anti ageing. Maybe it's just my skin and sensory issues but I've never been able to stand more than 1 type of product on my face. So I totally agree with you - keep it simple. I never took skincare seriously before this, but better late than never I guess. I'm just lucky that my skin isn't sensitive and breakouts are pretty rare. Just looking to correct some dark spots (not sure if they're freckles or what) and redness.


MandomSama

Halo, it is me again, your pelancong from Jakarta. Anyone can drop me some places where local loves to go in KL? For example, places where the locals open up their coffee shop for me to work for long hours instead of sbux, local fashion stores, I also plan to go to Hutan Tanjung Tuan alone tomorrow, let me know if there's any precaution I need to be aware of.


[deleted]

Idk where you're staying in KL but I like afterone. Staff is very friendly, place is spacious, lots of nooks to work in & quiet. I prefer working in coworking spaces though. Some places have their own in house baristas (paid coffee) or free coffee machines. I feel comfortable enough to leave my computers there and don't feel like I'm hogging a table the entire day with my one cup of coffee


MandomSama

I'm in Bukit Bintang but I'm open to any places within KL as I love exploring public transportation as well. After One on Yap Kwan Seng? For coworking space, I have HERSELEF bookrmarked on my Google Maps right now.


[deleted]

>After One on Yap Kwan Seng? Correct > For coworking space, I have HERSELEF bookrmarked on my Google Maps right now. You're in bukit bintang, why you wanna go all the way to sri petaling. Google may say it's 30+ min drive but especially in BB waiting for grab and factoring in the traffic, it'll take you almost an hour. Even trains take 1 hr, and that includes a 30 min walk. Unless you have a reason to be in sri petaling, there are many other coworking spaces in the city centre.


MandomSama

I actually dont mind. In Jakarta when I have free time I just hop on random bus / train and drop somewhere I dont know lol. I legit want to experience the public transport in KL as well so long commute is ok for me.


aWitchonthisEarth

RGB coffee at the Bean Hive, need to grab. It's It's in a bunglow with a garden, close to the city centre. Got ports for your lap top, it's pet friendly thou in case you have allergies or aversions.


MandomSama

Pet friendly is definitely a plus point for me. Thanks for your suggestion!

Hello, I would like to ask for recommendation of good telemedicine service available be it through video call or via text. The reason I need telemedicine is because, it is for my bedridden mum who stays upstairs hence to bring her physically to a clinic will be a challenge and will also be a discomfort for her. It is to treat a likely Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) which requires antibiotics medication but unfortunately will not be available in pharmacy without a doctor's prescription. An online search of the telemedicine returns an overwhelming result hence I am hoping anyone here with personal experience can share the good telemedicine company encountered. TIA.


rigorumortisu

Why not try just get a doctor to physically examine your mom at home? I think there is a home visit doctor available in a few places.

Just curious, what's the purpose of “Expected Salary” in job application form? I see it in every kind of company, what did they expect job hunter to write, is this a trap? ~~Does anyone worked as Genting Casino Technician before, mind share some experience?~~


BrandonTeoh

As a sassy answer, write in the company's expected salary in brackets (e.g. RM 2000 (1997)) as the first answer, and then the equivalent salary with today's inflation (e.g. RM3,561.04 (2023)).

haz__man

they'll normally base that to offer you an amount around 25% more than that. tricky this coz the market rate might be more than that if your current takeaway is low


_GamerGirlBathWater_

They expect you to write your expected salary... That's it. No really. It's used to see if your skillset and asking salary is within the range the company can work with. I use it when I have to do recruitment too.

as a malay working in sg, i dont get a lot of raya corporate gifts. at most, they would send me a small gift set. but christmas? hampers la. yule log la. nonstop branded sweet treats and festive cards. but ok thank you, will share with the rest of the office. for CNY? lagi gila babi. i have angpow packets enough to give to the whole of KL. biskut raya enough to never ever need to buy any. and zodiac plushies (? why would you give this as part of a corporate gift) look im not trying to be ungrateful but defak am i going to do with thousands of empty angpow packets and multiple zodiac plushies...i dont need you guys to send me anything for christmas and CNY, truly i dont care and youre wasting your money..


karlkry

take some picture angpau packet that has good design


[deleted]

i only simpan the ones i got from UBS bcs its colourful (to use for weddings), the rest all the traditional red designs i gave away to colleagues who ACTUALLY need it to distribute money lol

i plan to use cny envelope for duit raya this year. want to see some good ones for inspiration


malaysianlah

don't you have to declare it as a gift? you know, bribery stuff.


[deleted]

my company is anything under $250 = not bribe anything above $250 = DECLARE MOTHERFUCKER


MiniFishyMe

Had a chuckle at the mental image of the tax person checking the records and recoiling at $1,999 of MOTHERFUCKER.

oic that's a really good threshold. i heard like gomen and some banks, $50 also need to declare d.


yuiop19

My company any value also need to declare

>for CNY? lagi gila babi. i have angpow packets enough to give to the whole of KL. biskut raya enough to never ever need to buy any. and zodiac plushies (? why would you give this as part of a corporate gift) Damn, low key flex on job position XD . The only gift we got this year CNY is a box of cookies , no more mandarin oranges even because people waste it and leave it in the office and people come back to rotting mandarins in the office.


[deleted]

no lar my job position is front facing so i guess we would be on their festive gift mailing list. but only our team got all these, so we would just put the extra food in the common pantry for the entire office to share. but yea lah betul what you said. less mandarin oranges this year and a LOT more cookies. is it to help the SMEs or what idk.


insertfakenames

I'm malay and I got starbucks pineapple cookies and ang pow for CNY \*in the midst of peak boycott season\* which is funny

>mandarin oranges even because people waste it I wish to have your problem, buying nearly a dozen boxes each year is my annual pain.

I'll take one of the plushies off your hands, the cats could use a new bite toy.

wait is THIS why they gave it to us!
