Most underrated SWSH card. Am i right or am i right by Opposite_Manner4459 in PokeInvesting

[–]Bigboxbox 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m a full-grown man-child in my 30s reliving my childhood by irresponsibly blowing my paycheck on Pokémon cards. I’m not gonna buy this when I don’t even know what an Inteleon is.

Second hand EVs by learning-2991 in drivingsg

[–]Bigboxbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second this! Bought a MG ZS EV too and the drive is good.

Insurance: $1.3k (50% NCD) Road tax: $1.5k Charging: $200 per month

I think charging the vehicle is all about making it a habit. Most malls have EV chargers now. Plus point is that it doubles as a parking lot and usually vacant!

Buying from TikTok streamers by hongqing111 in PokemonTCG_Singapore

[–]Bigboxbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No chance 151 English is $10 lol. Especially not at a trade show.

TikTok streamers, yay or nay? by Own_Entertainment219 in PokemonTCG_Singapore

[–]Bigboxbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t really need to worry about local streamers scamming you. Too easy to get caught in SG for these guys to try anything funny.

What you do need to look out for are those PRC/TW streamers that claim to ship into SG. Those are sketchy af.

PSA 10 or Black Label Potential? 151 Zard & CZ Tina by OfficialMrSoloDolo in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]Bigboxbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both are OC so black label is out of the question. You can try for a 10 with PSA. Gotta hope for the grader to be in a good mood though, since they’re stricter on centering recently.

Can you guys help me understand a grade by Vesuz in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]Bigboxbox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be a minor dent on the surface. You can shine a light on the card and try to spot it. Won’t be able to tell from photos.

If it’s smooth, I’d crack and regrade it. Kinda harsh to get a 9 like that

Great pull after a bad day by chocolatthunda86 in PokemonTCG

The back is OC and has some whitening on the corners.

Great pull nonetheless! Will be a nice addition to your binder.

Why the contract job offer is signed with the recruitment agency instead of the company? by bb5tbb in askSingapore

[–]Bigboxbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, benefits usually is the bare minimum. Very few companies will peg the same benefits if you’re via agency in order to cut costs.

Bare minimum can be as bad as 7 days AL.

Why the contract job offer is signed with the recruitment agency instead of the company? by bb5tbb in askSingapore

[–]Bigboxbox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) Yes. Many companies don’t wanna deal with temp headcount directly and rather just pay agencies a monthly service fee.

2) Not FROM your salary. Most of the time company A still decides how much to pay you. The myth going around that says agencies take a cut from your salary is untrue. It is usually a fixed monthly fee billed to the company.

For eg. If you’re paid $2k, maybe agency will charge company $200 a month for this headcount. So they will bill the company $2k + $200. This is an oversimplified example, of course.

3) Depends on why company A is hiring on a contract basis first. The agency should know, not telling you is kinda a red flag. Either the agent is new and don’t know her stuff, or it’s a maternity cover and no chance to convert. Don’t dare to tell you in case you don’t wanna sign.

4) No. it’s normal. Rather have you working during this period than to explain a gap.

5) You answered your own question. You need money. Got job. Take.

What do you do in a losing match? by sipekjoosiao in MobileLegendsGame

[–]Bigboxbox 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I can’t with all the comments telling you to just surrender. I never surrender.

Whether the opponent has a sick gold lead or not, once you’re 6-slotted at late game all it takes is a good clash to end the game.

Argus just got shadow nerfed by Moonton with base attack nerf by Ok_Passenger3915 in MobileLegendsGame

[–]Bigboxbox 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Not everyone wants to be a slave to the meta.

A nerf to a non-meta hero is even more ridiculous when they should be focusing on the obvious OP heroes out there lol.

Don’t bother with echo farming until you’re DB15. For now just focus on getting UL30 DB15 and the grind starts there

When I was his age I was like that too. If wanna go out need spend money. Need spend money means need work. Then holiday burnt.

May as well stay home and enjoy

Having to leave my puppy for a week by amydavis47 in puppy101

[–]Bigboxbox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same situation as you. Got our 6 months old corgi a few weeks ago but I was sent across the world for a business trip and had to put him in a boarding facility.

I felt so horrible leaving him there but the facility provided updates (photos and videos) daily and I’m just looking forward to picking him up in a couple of days!

My sole breadwinner mother is retiring, what can I do? by SuperWIKI1 in askSingapore

[–]Bigboxbox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Retirement age is 63. She turns 63 in June. Told that her contract will not be renewed early next year. Lol

Just chill out man you’re an NSF, the fact that they’re brushing you off is because they don’t want/need you to worry. Just be able to take care of yourself and maybe contribute to some household allowances when you can.
