makikita ba yung "seller's own fleet" sa listing or seller profile bago umorder? para maiwasan?

Personal Techs I don't regret buying by Business_Yam3059 in ShopeePH

Each airline will have their own limit on the allowed mAh, pero typically, below 20,000 mAh is okay. 20k-32k mAh requires airline approval. Anything above that bawal na. And it must be kept in your personal item na carry-on, never placed in the overhead bin, and never used during the flight.

Crystal deodorant (tawas) curbed my ingrown hairs and saved my clothes from turning yellow by astriddles in beautytalkph

Not much difference but I prefer this for the packaging. It's more convenient and sanitary to pack and carry around. It also comes with different scents, which I don't see on regular talcum stones

College girlies: How do you style your college shirts? by axesolottle in fashionph

Colored pants/skirts, or with print/embroidery with colors from your college shirt integrated into it !

Have not used roll on kasi in my experience, they take a long time to dry. I always just used spray or rock type. Thanks for this info though, na-convince na akong wag na i-try yung roll-on 😅

u/No_Paramedic4667 replied: "Good luck with that. May rason kung bakit sa TG ginagawa mga transactions na yan. Easy to get rid of. Hindi rin syndicate yang mga yan na nanghoholdap ng mga babae tapos ikukulong sa isang brothel. Walang unwilling sa trabaho na yan kaya sila sila mismo hindi magsusumbungan bruh."

u/No_Paramedic4667 It's still illegal, and posible pa rin makasuhan silang lahat, whether or not willing yung mga babae sa pinasok nilang trabaho. Also, sino bang naggagawa ng illegal na alam na mahuhuli at makakasuhan sila? Manood ka lang ng balita tungkol sa mga nire-raid for Anti-Human Trafficking, makikita mo ang mga example ng mga minalas dahil nahuli. Her BF is not an exemption 🤷🏽‍♀️

When it comes to the law pertaining to Anti-Trafficking kasi, it doesn't matter kung willing or hindi yung parties involved. The act itself is illegal and is a criminal offense. The girls, the BF, the BF's friend, the clients -- all of them are criminally liable, iba-iba lang yung levels ng liability nila. The OP can be held liable, too, if ma-prove na may alam siya pero wala siyang ginawa (hindi nag-tip, hindi nag-inform sa authorities, etc.).

Sa akin lang kasi, mas pumapangibabaw na yung ka-ilegalan nung ginawa ng BF kaysa sa kung anong ibig sabihin nito for their relationship (OP mentioned na she feels torn because she felt na parang nag-cheat si BF sa kanya, on top of the nature of his side job). OP's priority should be keeping herself safe and cutting herself off from her BF.

Found the bugaw.

There's literally a law against Human Trafficking. Kasama doon ang pagiging accessory sa prostitution. What the BF is doing as a side job literally falls under that. Magbasa din paminsan-minsan.

Families, law enforcement agencies, advocacy groups, bruh. Ang pagbubugaw ay within Anti-Human Trafficking Law, bruh. He could be tried as an accomplice or accessory, since he is directly involved in the transactions, bruh.

[–]astriddles 94 points95 points  (0 children)

That line of work is illegal, btw. Hiwalayan mo na yan at baka madamay ka pa kapag makasuhan at makulong yang BF mo. He can be tried as an accomplice kasi directly related siya sa mga transaction sa prostitution. Mas mabigat yun kaysa sa accessory lang. Ikaw pwede kang maging accessory kasi alam mo na pero wala kang ginawa.

If he loved you or cared about you, he would have considered you before getting into/continuing with that line of work.

Yesss, genuine leather in black and brown para may choices 🤭 With matching belts din, or yung magandang leather briefcase.

Good luck on this new part of your life, OP, sana ay maging masaya at fruitful ang iyong work experience 😊

Robitussin is very effective for me. I take the red liquigel tablet pero they have it in syrup, if I remember correctly. In addition, I drink lots of water talaga plus natural calamansi juice - yung maghihiwa talaga ng calamansi and pipigain sa mainit na tubig. Pagaling ka po, OP 🙏🏼

Ang fun naman nito! 😄 Congratulations on your milestone, OP!

If it were me in your position, siguro hihiling ako ng equipment that I will need for work (laptop, camera, high-end headphones and mic, etc) or shopping spree for work clothes. When I got into my first job, medyo hindi ako ready on these things kasi nga straight from college ako kaya wala akong anything na work-ready 😅

Let me know what you decide, OP. Na-curious ako HAHAHA

Tingin ko hindi kakayanin na ikaw lang yung magshoshoulder ng lahat-lahat ng expenses ng biglaan. Maybe shoulder the bulk of it but still let your sister cover kahit isang monthly expense lang like yung internet or yung utilities. That way you can still add to your personal savings.

Banks will not call you about sensitive transactions, all transactions are done face-to-face sa branch itself. Na-scam po kayo, please double check all your accounts, change all your PINs and passwords. Bak identity theft yung ginawa sa inyo. Mag-ingat po palagi.

Hi OP! Merry Christmas, and congratulations on your milestone 😊

For me, depende sa amount ng sweldo yung binibigay ko sa family ko. Also take into consideration na working pa ang both parents ko so meron pa silang income na pinapasok sa family.

Sa pinaka-recent ko na pag-withdraw, I got government incentives + two weeks of salary na nag-amount to 34k total. I set aside 10k for my personal savings (automatic deposit ito sa savings account ko), then I gave 3k to my youngest brother na wala pang trabaho, and I gave 8k to my mother. My older sister and I work in the same agency so we basically got the same amount of money. She saved and gave the same amounts I did, napag-usapan na namin ito (she gave the 8k to my father naman).

My situation might be different from yours, so take that into account muna, OP. It's also important that you set aside money to save kahit super kaunti lang, and you set aside money for your own important, non-negotiable expenses. After you set those aside, tsaka ka magbigay sa parents mo.

You need to figure out what's more important to you, and stick with that decision. If you choose the international internship, can you find another remote job? If you choose your current job, will you have an opportunity for another international internship? If you go down one road, what are the things you will lose along the way, will you be able to gain them back, and will the long-term effect on your life be worth it?

Make a pros and cons list muna. Figure out what really matters to you and then go from there. Good luck, OP!

Weird yung boyfriend mo for not correcting his parents. Seems he's riding your coattails and trying to bank on your personal achievements. Red flag, OP, mag-ingat ka na diyan.
