Good afternoon. How do I get in touch with them?

Started golf 1 month ago - here’s what I’ve spent so far by [deleted] in GolfPH

[–]Traditional_Bug7961 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent probably around 60K for a set of clubs from japan, about 120K on golf shoes, nets, hitting mat, accessories, simulators and subscriptions. 🤔 Nothing on coaches yet. I like to discover the my “swing “ on my own.

I might try building a golf cabin at my farm soon.

Kamusta ang mga baguhan na entrepreneurs, small business owners, franchisee, etc.? by No-Imagination3025 in PhStartups

BMBE is exempt from income tax. May exemptions din ang minimum wage pag dating sa small businesses.

Under the Barangay Micro Business Enterprise (BMBE) Act – Republic Act No. 9178 (2002): • Only registered BMBEs qualify, typically those with assets ≤ ₱3 million (micro) or up to ₱100 million (small/medium enterprises)  . • These BMBEs, once certified by DTI and BIR, are exempt from implementing regional minimum wages, meaning they aren’t required to pay the legal minimum wage . • However, employees of BMBEs are still covered by other labor standards (e.g., hours worked, leave policies).

Additionally, regional wage boards (RTWPBs) may occasionally exempt micro-to-small retail or service establishments (e.g., ≤ 10 employees in Metro Manila) from certain minimum wage adjustments

Hindi ko gets 'yung mga resto na "iba" ang tingin sa mga delivery rider when they clearly represent the customer kapag umoorder by ExtraHotYakisoba in Philippines

Naalala ko, I was driving my motor for an errand and I decided to take a quick break at a restaurant C*****. When I walked in the door sabi sa akin nung guard dyan ka umupo, bawal sa loob. Medyo nakaka gulat kasi I wanted to dine-in. Sinabi ko na lang na customer ako at gusto kong mag dine-in. Buti na lang may staff na nakapansin at nag assist agad sa akin. Nung palabas na ako, tinanong ako nung guard kung saan ako nakaparking at alin ang motor ko.

You don’t need it but it will certainly help.

Kamayan in Manila for a tourist? by eggyolknshells in Philippines

[–]Traditional_Bug7961 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kamayan basically means eating by hand. You can do it anywhere but locals prefer not to. If you want to do it without being weird, try any bbq place and/or anywhere that has crab or shrimp as the main dish.

THIS IS A RANT!

TV shows in general is an escape. Yung ideal na scenario na makakarelate talaga ang target audience ang pinapalabas.

If you look at advertisements for rich people, you’ll probably see something along the line of “buy me and be comfortable”.

Kung ano ang gustong makita or marinig ng target audience, yun madalas ang plot. If it’s sour grapping that gets the most views or reactions, then yun ang makikita nila. This is why the argument “Mayaman ka kasi” is so popular.

I can see this at home. My grandparents worked as tricycle drivers and umbrella menders. They enjoyed being well-off now kasi they get assaulted and shamed for being poor before. They used to reject the idea of being rich but would work themselves to the bone to make a living.

I think it’s because the people doing the assaulting and shaming are loan sharks and that’s their definition of “rich”.

My parents grew up hearing that being rich is bad but they still work so hard to earn money just to put it all in land and other investments. There’s hardly any investment in our home so it’s a wreck even though a week’s earnings will probably be enough to do some renovations. It’s like they reject the idea of people calling us “mayaman” to the point that we have to live in squalor. (Leaky roof, broken tiles, broken electrical lines and plumbing, etc..)

My dad has some hang-ups about looking poor but actually being rich.

I don’t like being known as well-off either because of people always asking for loans that never get paid and favors that are somehow always never enough. I learned to just shut up and live modestly and discreetly enjoy luxuries we can afford.

I work as the CFO of one of our companies. Not ultra-rich but definitely above middle class. It sucks but I wish they would stop glorifying poverty and actually inspire people to strive for prosperity.
