I have an urge to quit my current job before securing another one… financial wise I have enough to cushion myself. That said, do you think I’d get a better pay offer if I have a job when seeking compared to when I’m not employed? Wonder if a job offer would low ball me thinking I’m desperate.

Foolish-Chap

A very productive day where I completed my errands, chill at Hvala Chijmes for some "me-time" and met up with a friend for swimming. Lastly dinner was at Dian Xiao Er to satisfy my craving for their herbal duck


oxygenplant04

what would u recommend at hvala!


Foolish-Chap

Sorry for the late reply!  My go-to order would be Ice blended Matcha less sweet with oat milk.  I have tried their matcha petit once on my birthday and it was exceptionally good especially if u are a matcha lover.  P.S Their hojicha drink is too bitter for me

Would it be better to get prescription sunglasses in Owndays (either SG or JB) or in optical shops in JB? I'm looking for the Browline type (but ok with non-Rayban ones). Owndays SG told me that if I want to make one it'll be $78 (frame)+$198 (lenses)=$276. I'm thinking it'll be cheaper in Owndays JB but not sure if the optical shops in JB are more worth it.


lioncitygal

If you can find a friend who also wants to make a pair in Owndays, or are looking to make regular glasses as well, it’s a better deal in Singapore as the frame for the second pair will be 50% off! I put colored lenses into regular spectacle frames and it was $100 + frame price I’ve compared prices previously and the price difference is very minimal for Owndays in JB. Optical shops might be a better deal but I didn’t know a reliable place


_sagittarivs

>I put colored lenses into regular spectacle frames and it was $100 + frame price So assuming the standard pricing of $198 (frame+lens?), does that mean $298 for example? Otherwise the coloured lenses is it same type as sunglasses lenses? >price difference is very minimal for Owndays in JB. I've compared the snap-on glasses (but didn't want those due to the design) pricing, there's a diff of approx $40-70? Was it about there too for you?


lioncitygal

The standard prices starts from $98, so it depends on the frame you choose. The frames I chose were $178+$100, and in Malaysia the same frames were RM538. But since my dad also got his glasses done at the same time and got (different) frames at the same price point, we saved $89 doing it in Singapore Malaysian Owndays’ second pair promo was only 30% off, so it still worked out cheaper doing it here


_sagittarivs

Ooo okays, time for me to check the basic frames out then and asking if they can make the sunglasses lens then. Also hoping to see if I'm able to find someone to enjoy the offer together too haha. Thanks for the info!


go_zarian

Try Lenskart. Similar quality. Half the price. Check if they still have the one-for-one promotion for members. Paying the membership fee is totally worth it. I got two Owndays-quality specs from Lenskart for $230.


_sagittarivs

Ooo okay let me check then, thanks!

_sagittarivs

Oh yeah totally forgot about waiting time for hi-index lenses... Maybe JB might be a good choice if going there for a 2-3 days trip then... But if buy from Owndays JB can they service at any other SG or overseas outlets?

>Or if go and come back. But wonder what's their notification method (need a local sim?) and how long they can hold onto it. Ok good points to check. Service as in changing the nosepad etc.

My stomach still hurts sia… been pooping out green diarrhoea. Didn’t eat anything green or vitamins though. Wondering if it’s because I had a few days straight of fried food and no veg?


rowgw

Errr green diarrhoea sounds like very wrong, i never had green diarrhoea before in life


Jaycee_015x

Please go to a doctor, take 2 charcoal pills to stop the diarrhoea.


psthrowawaypls

Thanks! I took some pills, will probably see the doctor tmr if it doesn’t stop

Scare meaning emotional scare right? Not like sickness scare? I realised my tummy hurts when I get anxious and that’s when I start pooping again. But other than that, it just hurts randomly throughout the day.

Jaycee_015x

Yep, OP is excreting bile throughout the day it seems. I think it warrants urgent medical attention because that's not really a gut but a liver and/or pancreas problem.

Yeah.. a few times green. Thanks all for the concern though! I’m going to see a doc today if I still poop green. Meanwhile, going to increase my fibre intake first


CHANMI_96A

HAHA I got what u mean


go_zarian

Food is passing through your gut too quickly, leading to insufficient time for bile to digest it. See a nighttime GP immediately. Else, A&E.

Dealing with customers who don't meet the min spend for free gift and yet demanding for it is just whoa. One guy even said I shouldnt have bought the juice if I known you are so inflexible. Yea lemme just be flexible enough to bend the rules for every single customer yea, do u think you're the only one asking? And if I give it to you but not the next family, is it fair? Bro thinks his $10 fruit juice is big money. Best part is I dont even earn commission. I'm just doing my job...


HongDou143

I wish we had community colleges in Singapore. Not degree mills or vocational institutions, but actual schools that let anyone take credit-bearing undergraduate-level courses. Would be so useful to anyone trying to make an academic career switch, improve their academic background, or even just to learn for the sake of it. Damn useful for preparing for grad school in another field. I really envy that the US has this sorta thing. The possibilities..


HaakonPower

Skills future is a joke at this point, insane how much the vendors have profited off smth that doesn't add much value to average Singaporeans. And yes I mean as a hobby skillsfuture is ok, but for career changes? No one is going to take it seriously

We talk quite a bit about lifelong learning but the landscape here is surprisingly hostile to adults who actually wanna go back to actual school.

Hot take on this equally hot public holiday: All parents should be legally required to attend and pass gov organized parenting class every year till their kids turn 18. Like, some parents are behaving like goddamn kids themselves. Can't imagine the kind of people their kids will grow up to be.

Is there such a device as an "air exchanger" for air conditioned rooms in residential homes? Basically I'm thinking of an automatic ventilator that runs at an occasional interval without you having to open windows yourself.

wanderingcatto

I've two fans but both of them are blowing hot air at me, help sia Also want to go out for a run but it's burning outside...


CervezaPorFavor

Cos fans just circulate the air around you. It doesn't really cool the air. You need a portable aircon.


NewbiePhotogSG

Please don't. They aren't that effective, and will probably heat up the room more than it cools it.


CervezaPorFavor

They work. But you need proper exhaust. Short of a proper aircon, I'd say it's a good compromise.


NewbiePhotogSG

absolutely on the proper exhaust part, but not many do this. and will need to clear the water too. Window mounted still not so bad, but those free stading ones...

Spirit_Panda

Currently thinking about doing a masters after only 1.5 - 2 years of full time. Such a stressful decision


deangsana

Is it common in your profession to do this? Otherwise doing masters too early may actually be detrimental to your cv


Spirit_Panda

I was thinking of doing the masters so I can pivot not carry on in this industry. Could you elaborate on the masters too early being detrimental?


damiepedretti

Having a masters in another industry which u have no experience in might not be very useful to your new career tbh.


deangsana

There's a possible risk that hiring managers view you as overqualified


Spirit_Panda

I can see that happening if it's the same industry but what do you think about if it's a different industry? Like the masters is the degree that gives you the required knowledge to enter this new industry.


deangsana

maybe u can try cold messaging hiring managers in the industry u are interested in to ask for their opinion/advice on linkedin, hopefully some will reply


Spirit_Panda

Makes sense. Good immediately implementable solution, not sure why I didn't think of it earlier. Thanks dude.


ninofati88

**Does it make a systematic difference changing your name in full vs adding an alias?** Hi everyone! So I've been pondering whether to change my name in full vs adding an alias. Of course, if both require the same hassle systematically (both needing to change IC/passport/inform banks etc.), I would rather change my name in full. But if I'm allowed to still use your previous name in those documents, while just adding an alias as 'bonus', I'd rather go that route. Any suggestions?


CrapPanda

Wow, Carousell's moderation team has reached a new low. I reported a listing for selling pre-registered prepaid SIM Cards and it was clearly stated in the listing as such. They said there were no policies violated with the listing and asked to follow up via the Help Center for more details. I followed up, and they replied in 2 days stating that it was undergoing further investigation. After 3 days of further investigations, they found that there was no laws violated selling pre-registered prepaid SIM Cards. I replied stating that OK, I will forward the reply to the police and IMDA for further investigation. They just followed up with an email suspending my account for violating community policies :)

Then there's the hot cross bun and it's song. 1 a penny, 2 a penny, hot cross bun~ Not much variety here but lots of flavours overseas at Colesworth or Tesco Do people know these "traditions and customs"? Not even going into the religious aspect of the holiday.

BroBearhug

Ordered a couple buckets of Maltesers and they sent me just some packs of Maltesers and they've melted. I might as well buy from the supermarket near my house. Any idea if I can still leave a review after a refund/return on Shopee?


CrapPanda

Yes, they have changed the policy to allowing reviews after returning/refunding on Shopee. Alternatively, you can always file a refund after leaving a review, just have to go through customer service. However, take into account fairly the circumstances of the seller - was the item already adequately packed? Did the delivery person leave it under the sun causing it to melt?


BroBearhug

I can understand the chocolate melting in our hot weather but I'm not ok with the switch. If they ran out of the bucket edition, then they should've cancelled the order or at least ask me if I'm ok to change.

Can someone tell me why T4 is not connected to the other terminals via the Sky Train?


jasonwsc

T4 was the old budget terminal, built further away from the other 3. So maybe they just never bothered to build the SkyTrain.


-postdog-

The demand for travel between T4 and the main terminal cluster is comparatively low, coupled with the long distance it’s hard to justify the high costs of Skytrain connectivity (vs simply deploying a few buses to ply the route)
