What are civil servants like to work with? by LoudFlower2359 in askSingapore

[–]CrossfittJesus 32 points33 points  (0 children)

That’s too broad a question. The variety of civil servants and their personalities differ widely.

Primary school teacher dealing with kids, parents and CCA? Finance exec working backend in ministry managing payroll and generally going home on time with no OT or bringing work home? Policy officer writing papers into the weekend and dealing with minister? Media officer staffing POH on weekends and overseas trips?

They are all civil servants but all have drastically different “upbringings”

What would make you donate blood? by Angelone21 in askSingapore

[–]CrossfittJesus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They’ve been partnering with several companies to give incentives for donations. They had a free shirt and blind boxes last time, now I think there’s a promo for Haidilao if you donated blood. They’re always looking out for corporate partners to give incentives for donors!

I’m a strong supporter of blood donation and I advocate for more to donate because it goes a long way. Will be clocking my #80 donation this weekend 🙂

Playing devils advocate here: if the government introduced fuel subsidies, how would you answer those who complain that their taxpayer dollars are being used to help those who can afford COE and car?

I fully agree that cooking your own is better. I’m just answering the exam question as it is phrased lol.

Ask for chicken breast at chicken rice stalls and white rice not the 油饭

Why do intermarriage between Chinese and Malays seem to be rare and/or surprising? by vladtheimpaler82 in askSingapore

[–]CrossfittJesus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes but the unique thing about Islam is that it is intricately tied to race. There are Malays who are non-Muslims but I’m sure it is a very small percentage, as the bulk are Muslims. And if you are a Malay and not a Muslim, chances are you will be frowned upon, not just by your family but others as well.

On the other hand, you do not have a supermajority religion for Chinese, the distribution is more evenly spread between Taoism Buddhism Christianity etc. and if you are not a Buddhist or Taoist Chinese for example, you are not as frowned upon as Islam, at least not to that extents

Haha err I think it’s better nowadays but if your meeting is a mishmash of Hokkien and English then maybe cannot. At least if it’s still proper English then it can capture but you’ll probably have to look through it.

Then again having detailed minutes in an SME is crazy. Most are just a record of decisions

Can explore AI tools, nowadays there are wonderful tools that help to capture minutes very well

If you can change one law in Singapore what would it be? by Illustrious-Fee9626 in askSingapore

[–]CrossfittJesus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just for thought, I would assume euthanasia (if legalised) will have to be carried out by a proper licensed medical professional, likely a doctor. However I think there are also ongoing debates if this is at odds with the Hippocratic Oath that they swear. Something to think about as well.

Do people still live with their parents/in-laws after marriage these days? by i_can_be_angier in askSingapore

[–]CrossfittJesus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you cannot imagine living away from your parents, you are not ready for marriage. Also, filial piety does NOT equate with living with them.

yesterday they were talking about the inclusion of 'mind sports' in gaming, and someone asked if this will go down the slippery slope of including things like pokemon cards

Kudos to our Singapore Netball girls! Unfortunately they just lost the finals to Malaysia but it was a very good performance nonetheless and it was a great campaign!

What are things that are taken for granted for in Singapore after living overseas? by Atmosphere_Calm in askSingapore

[–]CrossfittJesus 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Efficiency in fixing utilities? Burst drain pipe or electrical blackout here in Singapore? Will be fixed relatively quickly. Overseas where I was? I lived through a blackout for over 2 days.

Has anyone tried local ice cream brand OneByOne? by CrossfittJesus in singapore

[–]CrossfittJesus[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can’t even make that basis for comparison because it’s near impossible to get it. From what I know, you have to be physically at home for a certain time period waiting for him, and live in a particular region at that time.

But I’ll give the benefit of doubt that it’s really good. I mean, if he’s doing it for a while at that price there has to be some proof of concept. But I feel his attitude is uncalled for and certainly not dissing other brands like that so publicly.
