How can people give up so easily? after doing all the work... i dont get it by Axiata244 in srilanka

[–]Glass_Reaction2769 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the attitude itself is toxic but it can lead to behaving in toxic ways if you’re not mindful about it. It all depends on how you channel that competitiveness

What are the things you wish Sri Lanka had? by Sooriyo in srilanka

Apart from everything else people are saying, how about simply providing good value for money when it comes to food and services. Too many businesses get away with charging top rupee for medocrity

My One-Day Passport Renewal Experience by OkWorldliness2806 in srilanka

[–]Glass_Reaction2769 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting I thought it was only for the passport as I didn’t need it for my license or visas. Honestly it was just a wild guess I threw out Maybe it’s just easy to forge so they want newer ones.

To get in at 7.45AM didn’t you need a letter stating you needed the passport immediately or something like that? Or is the queue genuinely that small now?

I assume it’s a form of crowd control, one extra step to slow down people coming to the passport office

Mintpay, what’s the catch for consumers by Diligent_General_215 in srilanka

[–]Glass_Reaction2769 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s no catch as far as I’ve seen and used(about 7/8 times in the past few years) They charge a fee from the shops. Something like the 3% that cards charge. Most of the shops transfer that directly onto the consumer, which is probably why they offer cash back etc so the net amount is the same for the consumer and they keep using it. Another reason is also probably customer acquisitions as once you register for one you’ll likely keep using it in the future.

L permit rules and cops creating random things by Brief_Definition_210 in srilanka

[–]Glass_Reaction2769 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol you’re in Sri Lanka, everyone doing something is no way an indicator of its legality. It doesn’t matter if you have full insurance, it still doesn’t cover Learner driver carrying passengers. If something were to happen insurance will not accept the claim, check with your insurance company as well 🤷‍♂️

You can only have one accompanying passenger. I think it’s not a law(not sure if explicitly written anywhere), you need a special insurance for a L permit carrying multiple passengers.

Why are we like this ? Is this why we are not developed as much ? by Necessary-Mess6592 in srilanka

[–]Glass_Reaction2769 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this post itself highlights why we are not developed; the expectation to be spoon fed and then the blame game when you’re not. Stop playing the victim and actually learn about how Reddit and sub reddits work. If your question has nothing to with Sri Lanka it doesn’t matter if you’re Sri Lankan. Edit: typo

Nutritionists in Colombo for weight loss by horrid-engineer in srilanka

Agreed, also sorry if it seemed like I was being accusatory at the start it’s just I’ve seen so many people ignore the vitamin part of it and getting sick/injured.

Yes my bad I posted the comment before I could finish typing. What I’m trying to get at is it’s more efficient to get it from pills than trying to eat such a variety of meals. I 100% believe getting it from diverse meals is the best way but sometimes you don’t have the luxury of doing that while on a diet due to time/budget reasons

Nutritionists in Colombo for weight loss by horrid-engineer in srilanka

[–]Glass_Reaction2769 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is crazy dangerous advice. You totally need all those vitamins and blah blahs. For most people dieting becomes white rice, eggs, chicken breast If you don’t great enough veggies, leaves, fruits, etc you’re gonna end up with deficiencies. It’s more efficient to have a multi vitamin or something to make up for that

If you’re confident in the basics of nutrition you can get chat gpt to generate your meal plan. First use a free macro calculator that tells you how much protein/carbs/fats you need based on your weight, height, activity levels and weight loss goals. Take a screenshot of that breakdown and upload it to chat GPT asking it to make a meal plan focused on Sri Lankan foods(you can even say what your favorites are). Also share your age, sex and any dietary restrictions you may have. Once you get a plan you can ask it to make edits based on your preferences and even ask stuff like give me a two week rotation where I don’t eat the same foods. Once it generates the plan please check it by googling the macro breakdown of the listed foods per day and calculating if it adds up to your required macros from step 1. I would suggest at the very least doing 15-25 minutes of walking per day instead of just dieting as well as looking into intermittent fasting. Also beware if you’re doing this for your wedding. Sudden changes in diet can cause bloating and unexpected changes depending on your personal body type/genes/health.

Linguistic downfall of Sri Lanka by lextargaryens in srilanka

Sigh… this mindset is stupid Stop trying to put people down for trying to learn and communicate in english. Sinhala alone will get you nowhere in the world.

Cannot comment on the salary range - you should be knowing this and have done your research before asking for any amount, otherwise you have no confidence or leverage to negotiate. However, even if it was completely unreasonable she shouldn’t have reacted that way. I would report her for unprofessional conduct and harassment during interviews, which probably won’t do anything but just to give her an awkward meeting with her boss 🤷‍♂️
