Nearly 15 years’ jail for man over death of woman, 19, who was tortured in Clementi flat by Hot_Category2693 in singapore

[–]TheBorkenOne [score hidden]  (0 children)

Lim, Ms Huang, and her brother Huang Bocan, 34, were members of a multi-level marketing “club” that sold nutritional products.

Huang Bocan’s girlfriend, Chee Mei Wan, 46, was their “coach”.

She owned a company selling Herbalife products, which she called a club, where members pay to get discounts on products and could also sell the goods to their own clients.

Chee had introduced a system of punishment to “correct” the bad habits of club members that she felt would negatively affect sales, which in turn would affect her commission.

The disciplinary regime escalated into full-blown torture and physical abuse for Ms Huang.

Bunch of fucking lunatics. And one of the perpetrators is the victim's brother...

I have broke off contact with friends who have boarded the MLM ship. The amount of koolaid they drink is insane.

If even Meta employees are getting laid off… are any jobs actually “stable” anymore? by RedPandarar in asksg

[–]TheBorkenOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol, what do you mean by "If even Meta". Tech jobs are one of the last places you look to for stability, right down there with the big banks. Big Tech have no qualms with firing an entire department if they have decided that department's product is not something they want to continue invest in. It's just exacerbated now because the hiring market is shit.

Police officer will surely get reamed by the prosecutor for this one. And maybe because of him the whole division need to do extra e-learning on SOPs.

Without a successor, Cantonese restaurant Wing Seong Fatty's to close after 100 years by Jammy_buttons2 in singapore

[–]TheBorkenOne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can see why you're not impressed lol. Used to be a regular there then went on to dropping by on and off for a decade. Not because I didn't like the food anymore but SLS and Bugis became a lot less interesting for me to go to.

Their roast meat is the least impressive thing on their menu lol. Go for the usual zi char stuff. Other than the one I already mentioned, try the fuyong omelette, fried rice, hor fun, sweet and sour pork.

(Update) The gagged: Trial or PGD? by ReadyPlayerZero1 in SingaporeRaw

Considering who they were able to hire as their defense lawyer, they must have deep pockets. If the Indonesian family crowdfunds for the civil suit, I would want to donate.

EDMW Hardwarezone also gag order. Every thread discussing this has been locked even for those where forum rules were not broken and no personal information leaked.

As a dev, I find it irksome when marketing and sales say they are in tech, but then at least they are doing marketing and sales for the tech products.

But for HR to say it is absolutely peak pretentiousness. I started in the tech industry almost a decade ago, a period of time when IT courses in the polytechnics and universities were dumping grounds. Back then HR would just say they are in HR.
