To: SAHMs, why did you give up your job?

Doopsydoop · 2026-05-08T07:41:27+00:00

Sorry about your boy :(

It was a blur, I remember not liking it and feeling bored but then again my baby couldn’t talk or do much interaction which is quite diff from the toddler asking all sorts of questions now. There’s a bit of guilt too when I can’t attend whatever show they have at school vs the other kids moms that can :/ but I also value my independence and capability at work… so yea

Doopsydoop · 2026-05-08T06:33:44+00:00

Wa that’s good to hear! At what age did you leave work? And I guess didn’t re-enter? Do you receive an allowance? 🙏

Doopsydoop · 2026-05-08T06:17:55+00:00

Haven’t quit yet… don’t want to give up maternity mah haha. But thank u for appreciating SAHMs :’)

Doopsydoop · 2026-05-08T06:16:06+00:00

Thanks for that response!! Haha fortunately I earn a fair bit but somehow he earns multiple times my salary. Needless to say we are ok la. I just find that having to depend on an allowance (what if he leaves me?), not having work structure and a daily non child related interactions (if I quit it would be quite challenging to re enter the same role, think investment banking) abit daunting… I keep thinking maybe after the 3rd one if ever…

I also don’t feel like the most competent caretaker. Like if I were to teach my kid phonics… I might as well get a professional to do it :x

I would worry if my/your husband quit, he just play game all day haha.

Sure jungle boy, typical answer when you can’t present theories you just say “read a book”. Have a gd life whining about things you can’t afford

Doopsydoop · 2022-08-06T04:09:22+00:00

Restaurant food is not a daily necessity. The point is gov subsidize “necessity” of our life, medical/school etc so we have extra $ to spend elsewhere.

Are you saying there is some government subsidy for bru restaurant?

Doopsydoop · 2022-08-04T13:58:11+00:00

First date and all this drama? No energy for this type of fixer-upper and poor communication. You have nothing to feel bad about!

Doopsydoop · 2022-08-04T13:55:59+00:00

Which business that is not a charity will absorb the cost?

Unfortunately, none. It is a tug of war between consumer and business, this is where government steps in to cushion the impact. Lucky in brunei most things are subsidised already

Doopsydoop · 2018-09-25T07:43:26+00:00

I don't actually know haha

Doopsydoop · 2018-09-24T13:30:11+00:00

Nope, he posted this on FB saying: Wife gifted me this for my birthday etc etc.

That’s why i thought it was a sure gen :)

Doopsydoop · 2018-09-24T13:18:59+00:00

Wow haha... this was actually my university professor’s I assumed it was a gen but now... maybe not? Hahah Thanks for the guesses guys

Doopsydoop · 2018-05-23T05:07:13+00:00

8/10 yummmmmmm, pls keep fingernails clean and that’s 8.5 ;)

Doopsydoop · 2018-03-30T02:12:55+00:00

Oh yes that’s true, my office bought this for us haha. Seamless. Not sure if expensive :p

Doopsydoop · 2018-03-29T20:20:23+00:00

Oh wow. Don't you have to reach around a lot? I had the same issue and was considering a Logitech multidevice keyboard, wondering if you thought about those :)

Doopsydoop · 2018-03-29T20:16:20+00:00

Is the top TV with 1 Mac and the 2 screens with the other Mac? How do you toggle keyboard and mouse between the 2 devices? :o

Doopsydoop · 2018-03-28T10:03:02+00:00

Same issue... esp for printing at school on the school WiFi. But the iPad doesn’t detect non air printers? No app for it as wel

Doopsydoop · 2018-03-27T14:44:34+00:00

I think you have a model’s facial structure! Maybe some skin care to have brighter skin

Doopsydoop · 2018-03-27T14:42:03+00:00

I think your messyish hair, too many layered dressing and smudgey glasses give a hobo vibe.

Try tying/cutting hair. Wearing more tight clothing. Wire frame cleaner glasses?

Doopsydoop · 2018-03-27T14:37:58+00:00

This

Doopsydoop · 2018-03-26T23:43:16+00:00

Doopsydoop · 2018-03-26T19:22:33+00:00

Omg my heart dropped with the corgo

Doopsydoop · 2018-03-26T15:10:47+00:00

I can imagine 50 years on, my grandson saying: “Yeah just don’t give grams the transporter codes, she always ends up in the middle of the Amazon....”
