haha I think all companies like that lo..
must por them.. too bad I really don't knw how.. that's why lugi!
Haha planning to quit next year. See how 1st haha. Promised n says this year promote me but when I came back for abt 2mths HPL everything change liao. My sis said cannot fire me so leave me there. Nvm now all these are not important to me. Haha it trigger me no longer feeling paiseh still taking medical leave when c dr n when tired take leave. Relax relax everything don't care liao. Lol
 
All company need to have a mountain to lean on then can climb one .. Regardless local or foreign companies
Guess what my col told me last time she not happy working in this dept wanted to ask for transfer aft that she realise my dept she can do things n less competitor she can climb very fast n yes it is really happen every year climb. Sometimes use her power to pressure ppl this is what I hate. She ever shout at me saying pregnant this n that job cannot do? Den my boss just says oh mbe her mood no good when I'm voice up that I don't like ppl shouting at me. C how protected she is. Now I just do my work don't feel like talking to my colleagues here all same kind.

My little one just kept rolling around..or rather some part of her body keeps rolling from left to right and right to left..something that feels roundish when I touch..
 
wah like this scary leh.. that means ur company no $$ liao ??? else whey they delay CPF payment ... if delay they will kenna fine also.. the fine not small amt if u have many workers ..

Yes, I would think the co has no money too... Payment to supplier delay, CPF defaulted.. my sales commission defaulted since August too...

Can only prayed that u would not be shortchanged for my maternity leave & benefits..
 
i am the kind that hate to change environment so i will continue to work til i get the next long service award wahhahahaha

I also hate to change environment, but imagine every mth salary delay or CPF delay + Co acct no $$ etc. How to continue to work? I have been here since 2008 almost 6 yrs but seem like co is getting from Gd to worse. So time to plan liao....so sad
 
OIC. So, Shangri La high tea is 3-6pm and St. Regis' is 3-5pm? I hope the St. Regis one can stretch to 6pm unless they are fully booked for dinner and need to chase us out before then. If want to meet earlier and the high tea area is not ready, I know St. Regis got some cozy corners in the lobby area to sit and chit chat, and I've seen people do that before. Not sure about Shangri La though.

@ecym - I was informed by @cuteowl that Goodwood Park has a Dec promo - $38 per pax ($22.80 per child) for high tea buffet. Haven't asked about their wifi availability though, lol. What's your preference - St. Regis, Goodwood Park, or stick with Shangri La?

imho never get personal with colleagues must draw line some where else things can turn sour sometime :p but that is me and what i learnt since started working lolz

@PTB7674 I did inform MOM but was told CPF matters need to refer back to CPF board..
but the fact that din pay CPF already showing sign of probelm why mom dun bother ?

My little one just kept rolling around..or rather some part of her body keeps rolling from left to right and right to left..something that feels roundish when I touch..
meaning still got alot of space for GROWTH.. jiayu lolz

Can only prayed that u would not be shortchanged for my maternity leave & benefits..
the moment your comm is defaulted..mom should be able to take the case already wat

eh I also want !!! kekeke
can ..but i warned you ..the staff benefit no good hor...hospital stay only class b1 in goverement or restructured hospital ..no such thing as private hospital ..no maternity coverage ... and let alone single room hor lolz
 
i am the kind that hate to change environment so i will continue to work til i get the next long service award wahhahahaha
I also same but change for better future. I c all my deg friends getting salary higher than me many so envy. And the benefits here also suck. Unless salary high I don't mind stay but fact is it is not. Hub just says outside high salary but won't be like now relax relax just do my work times up go home. Guess it is depends.

@Archie7 @cuteowl - i have no preference for venue... I just want a place to chit chat from 1 to 5pm w/o been chased away hahaha
Shangri-La is out cuz we will get chased out at 2.3pm!

Haha hub income higher than me i feel more secure also. Mine more on personal expenses cos car he paid den i offer to pay season parking. So to me working is add income for me i don't want depends on hub give me money spend.
Lol same that is y for housing loan hub pay the max my cpf top up the balance only.

hahaha I can forgo these if I can have a substantial pay increment from the jump hahaha ...anyways I am going to close shop (birth) after this LO. So no maternity perks is ok!! hahaha

At least your DHs have stable income! Mine's not so a bit difficult to jump into the unknown! Want to earn more yet few co comes with medical benefits and can leave on time!

I checked St. Regis website again and found that the Brasserie has weekday lunch from 12 to 3pm and high tea from 3pm to 5pm, hence it's unlikely they can sit us down at 1pm, so our best bet is to sit at cozy corner in lobby until 3pm. As for Goodwood Park, this is what's on their website:

English Afternoon Tea Buffet

Available from 2pm to 5.30pm (Monday to Thursday),
1st seating: 12pm to 2.30pm; 2nd seating: 3pm to 5.30pm (Friday to Sunday and Public Holiday)

Maybe that's partly why the Facebook group picked Wed 3 Dec (instead of Friday) to go to Goodwood Park so at least they can sit from 2pm onwards.

So in conclusion, we haven't found a high tea place (with wifi) that can let us sit from 1 - 5pm. :( Do you want to go back to check the timings of the other hotels that don't offer free wifi, e.g. Regent, Mandarin Oriental etc.? Then I'll make a decision whether to take half day leave.

lolz typical traditional woman mindset ^5 lolz

you got a good deal lolz ..season parking cheaper than car instalment and maintenance lolz ..

y top up balance with CPF.. should max yours too then can clear the loan fast ... that is what we did lolz so our CPF .. is lang lang now lolz now re building the min sum lolz .our mindset is the sooner we clear the loan.. the lesser interest charge ( cpf int very high !!) and less worry if one is out of job.. no need to worry about repayment of loan :p but of course on the other hand some will say ..; dun max out cos ... if one out of job there is still cpf inside to tong until found job ...or can use the cpf for investment etc .. but for us it is better to realistic ...then building castle that investment will generate more than enuff to cover interest charge on loan lolz.. kiasi thinking lolz

At least your DHs have stable income! Mine's not so a bit difficult to jump into the unknown! Want to earn more yet few co comes with medical benefits and can leave on time!
stable income is because it is desk bound job mah lolz ...nowaday hardly any company with good medical benefit those with good one all LEAVE singapore @#$!@#$!@#$ cos the cost simply too high here for them to bear lolz

key word is substantial pay increement...do you think company today still can offer 10-20% increment when jump ship :p
i also closing shop too old liao.. ..so are you doing ligation ? or other method ?
 
My DH got stable income to support family on his own (unless we have like 5 kids or something, lol) without my share but he's getting so busy with OT I'm scared he won't have much time to play with LO or family bonding time. Everyday he comes home and even on weekends he must work on his work laptop. So sad that we can't strike a good work-life balance. Before I got preggers, I used to think I would happily give up the job to be a SAHM to devote myself to the child. Now that LO is coming, I'm suddenly afraid that I will go insane if I stay home all day with a LO who can't communicate with me at adult level, and that I need the mental stimulation of a job. But then maybe when LO really comes, I'll can't bear to leave him to the care of others; one of my colleagues resigned soon after her ML precisely for this reason!

separation anxiety is normal ...esp after ML ..so it is really depend on individual how they handle it.. i continue to work to maintain some sanity :p
as much as i would like to sahm but i just cant cos the 16 wks of SAHM has showed that i cant do it lolz .. so i would rather work but leave on dot to go back to family... bring kid out on weekend ... go holiday etc to spend time with family

lucky for us weekend is really family time for most of the time ...only rare occasion hb need to work on laptop on weekend but that is rare ...so still not so bad ... if he/me need to travel and if i/he can take leave ... we will join each other lolz ... so our boy didnt really missed much :p except for now i cant join hb travel cos passed the limit allowed on airline so ...everyday he will facetime with my boy if he travel

You will know if you are cut to be a SAHM during ML, not everybody can do it! I cant for sure!

there is no right or wrong to be FTWM or SAHM ..it is really up to individual..no one will judge you for choosing either one ...
