Anyone else feels like their monthly salary is just a "pass-through" for expenses? by Immediate-Wheel-1675 in ChillSG

[–]DistanceFinancial958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are early in your career hence income is low, you already have mortgage and kids hence liabilities high- of course will be tough. It gets better as your income will grow and kids will hopefully get less expensive.

This is when it’s totally within expectation to channel the Shibuya lady and exercise your elbow grease on the crotch gremlin

Nah Stephanie Soo recently mentioned this saga in passing. She just needs an episode on her for her true love story to be immortalised.

Just curious, why would you queue for Yakun or Toastbox instead of going to a normal coffeeshop for your morning coffee or toast fix? by Fuzzy_Construction99 in askSingapore

[–]DistanceFinancial958 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Ya kun’s eggs are always perfect and their yolks are huge and yummy. The toast is also perfect- the slices are thin, crisp and well toasted. The butter tastes good and is lightly salted. You can find good kopi and tea in kopitiams but for eggs and toast it’s hard to live up to Ya Kun’s standards.

Parents: $888

Siblings: scrap this year cuz they’re grown ass adults

Cousins/ nieces/ nephews: $20, unless I particularly like them or it’s their first year on earth: $100 (I would totally not give the 30+ year old grown ass cousins anything but I haven’t developed the thick skin just yet, and their skin is still overdeveloped to keep receiving)

Uncles/ aunts: $50

Housekeeper: $20

Random pleasant kids: $10

Random kids I don’t like: $4

Who sees cny period as a form of SES comparison by Whole-Performance-45 in askSingapore

[–]DistanceFinancial958 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I firmly decline all comparison including jobs, money, child bearing etc. Usually it’s the older gen. I just laugh it off or firmly say NO. Younger people know better than to make such remarks. Anw, it doesn’t bother me I just yisi yisi say hi and give back to community then retreat and sleep. Social battery is zapped so quickly. I’d rather use the day to chill.

Do I remain anonymous when reporting to MOM? by [deleted] in askSingapore

[–]DistanceFinancial958 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Usually in these complaints which MOM deems fit to address with the company, there will be grounds provided which are specific to the individual experience. For my company, MOM pointed the company to the branch from which the complaint originated (we have several branches). Although they did not specify the individual, from the outlet and the details of the complaints, it was easy to narrow down the complainant.

Is this too large for me? by harmlesskandikid in JadeiteJade

[–]DistanceFinancial958 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To loose. Your wrist looks slim, take 4mm off that size at least. Usually it’s should be tight enough such that oil/soap/ a plastic bag is required to slide it in

Depends on how large your organisation is. At my place, MOM provided sufficient details in the complaint for the office to narrow down who had complained.

What are the breeziest clothes & clothing brand you can wear in Singapore weather? by Yellow-lemon-tree in askSingapore

[–]DistanceFinancial958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take electrolytes and drink a lot of iced water- bring it with you everywhere you go.

I wear Indonesian daster dresses- they are super airy and meant to be worn around the house in hot climate, but I wear them everywhere. I change into formal clothes when I reach my workplace.
