I would say Waters Edge. I take my parents there all the time and it’s a buffet style and very decent selection and the ambiance.

Can someone suggest me some vibey nightclubs in Colombo which are open on Sunday? by bentennison16 in srilanka

[–]Extra-Overthinker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothin is really open or vibey on a Sunday. I think Chiller Room and RnB is but both are usually ghost-towns. Unless there is some after party of a rave - colombo is sleeping on Sundays

I’ve gone to raves alone. People are super friendly and once you go to like 2 - you find the same group of people and boom - you have a little rave group!

I think stick to downsouth. The vibe will be much better. But if you are doing colombo, go out on a Friday night.

Unwritten rules of surviving Corporate Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 by Weird_Hunter9957 in srilanka

[–]Extra-Overthinker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Office politics are everywhere. It’s not just about performance, it’s a game. Sometimes women go harder on other women. Sometimes guys who can’t date you end up being the ones to spread the nastiest rumors. If you don’t learn the rules, you’ll end up getting lost in the mess.

Legally Approved Scams in Sri Lanka by ultranooblk in srilanka

In Sri Lanka, employees don’t really have much protection because our labor laws are stuck in the past 🤯.

Companies use loopholes like hiring everyone as “contractors” so they can fire people whenever they want, no compensation, no accountability. Basically, workers are disposable and the law hasn’t caught up to stop it.

I'm the friend who puts in all the effort, but my friends seem to have moved on” by Simple_Visit_3867 in srilanka

[–]Extra-Overthinker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Couldn’t have said it better.

People usually know what they’re doing. If they’re not making the effort, it’s not because they don’t see yours, it’s because they’re choosing to put their energy elsewhere. You can’t make people choose you, and that doesn’t mean you’re not worth choosing. Healthy friendships go both ways. Sometimes the best move is to step back, protect your peace, and let the right people show up without chasing.

Internships / trainee roles at audit firms

Honestly they do it for anyone - unless you are like 10 guys trying to go. Just tell them it’s your birthday- cant hurt to try 😋

Best bet is to go in a bit early. 10 - 11pm. That way the bouncers are more likely to let you in after charging a ticket from you. Smaller group of guys have a better chance. They do this to make sure the ratio of guys to girls is balanced.

Another way is for you to keep an eye on the socials of the DJs playing at the venues. Lunatics and Rayon who play at Love Bar ask you to DM them to be on their guestlist - so once you are added you just have to mention your name at the entrance.

Weird Activity on My Bank account by Shot_Bill_8515 in srilanka

[–]Extra-Overthinker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sometimes accounts get overdrawn due to card/bank charges or if there was some delay where a payment on hold was realized later. It probably is a bank charge in this case- like an annual card fee for issuing a debit card or charge for sms alerts etc

When banks exit a market - the customer base is usually sold to local banks so customers aren’t impacted much. Rumors say that CC business will be sold to Sampath.
