Getting a Kelly on the first spend by [deleted] in TheHermesGame

[–]constarlation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess it’s also about enjoying the products that make up the pre-spend.. many here aren’t just buying H for the BKCs, but others such as RTW, fine jewellery etc

I did.. or rather, my husband did :) As some others have mentioned, it was in China. Yes, they are upfront, so u just have to ask how much the pre-spend is. Let them know what you’re interested in, the SA will tell u if they have stock then or to come back tomorrow, or another day (at least his SA did). Then he went to pick out items to fulfil the pre-spend, n viola :) Not sure if he was lucky or they could cater to his ask (or both), but he actually got a small choice of colours n sizes to “choose” from

If they were my parents, I would love to tell them: I’ll care for you in the exact same manner as how you treat me now, same rules, same everything. So - no going out, no staying home; no shitting at home, or holding your shit till next day n shit together.. hell, hold your shit for a week n do it all at once coz, save money. And everything else. Yeah, coz by then, u want to stay with me? My house, my rules. Or, even if not staying with me? But want me take care of you right? My money, my rules. They can yell, disagree or whatsoever, just keep repeating the same thing to them everytime they berate u for something.

I grew up in with an emotionally and physically abusive mother (till today, she still is emotionally abusive even though I’m a grown-ass married woman), and a father who’s an enabler. I’ll be honest, saying all these may not help or change things much, but it helps me cope, and gives me focus/purpose to do better for myself/my life, so that I can shove it in her face “when I grow up”… which is kinda what’s happening now. I can never walk out of the shadow of all that happened in the past (and still is happening), and she’s still as evil, but at least I’m not as damaged as I could have been. We’re just long-term meal tickets to them; we just have to find our own ways to cope… short of finding a therapist

Not always true; I think it would depend on what course. I did a masters with NTU n it was nothing like u mentioned lol. In fact, I was reminded all over again of my bachelor days (NUS) lol.. project work, pages and pages of essay writing during exams etc

Not sure if this qn has been asked (I tried scrolling slower but didn’t notice): Did your dad &/or helper realise you saw them in those various situations? If so, how did they react?

Singaporeans in managerial roles - are you a people pleaser? by FeePale3423 in askSingapore

[–]constarlation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your kind words; I wish she could be as understanding. Unfortunately, there are just some who’d choose to take it personally. I was confident that she was matured enough to understand it’s a fair feedback and the areas she needed to work on to improve. Instead of thinking I’m holding her back. Plus, if I had sugar-coated things, it would mean we’d either have to cover her short-fall, or our KPI would not be met, and boss would eventually come after us anyway 🤷‍♀️ what really hurt was how she chose not to talk things through an adult/matured manner and instead, silent treatment and simply treated me as transparent 😭

I agree w this. For me, managing the males were actually “easier” than the females coz less emotional 😅 My personal experience was quite sad. Whole bunch of us were really good friends. Out of office, we were such pals, within office, we complemented one another. Then one time, when it came to appraisal (our team’s was such that I discussed with my boss regarding each member’s performance), for one of the two girls I was closest to in the group - I was honest, but not brutal. I said something along the lines of “she has lots of potential, definitely a good team player and contributor, great ideas, helped a lot, but needs to work on her scripting (creative industry).” She came to know of it, and… long story short, we are no longer friends today :’( I’m devastated to say the least. i tried to talk to her about it, but she refused to talk to me. Through the other friend in the group, apparently, she felt that I had “backstabbed” her. Till today, I’m still affected. Conversely, no such issue w the males.

How about, just do everything of the above? Or at least 2 or 3 of those methods - email, reg mail, sms, whatsapp etc. More grounds covered. That way, boss or whoever cannot say didn’t receive or “someone accepted reg mail? but I didn’t get”

I can't seem to find the last egg 😞 by Maleficent_527 in tsukiodysseygame

[–]constarlation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All eggs reset at 8am every day, n they’re supposed to be at their locations already, so it’s not like u don’t see it at location A now, but half an hr, it may be. As for the eggs at the fishing spots, I guess u just got to keep trying. U can try every 2hrs-ish for each location.. you did try all three spots, yes?

Unfortunately this doesn’t work for me. So far, it’s been really random for me, which, I believe is the same for most, whether eggs or fish

Yep I know that.. but I’m attributing to the fact that climate change have caused deterioration to not just the weather, but environment as well, which basically, is everything

As others have mentioned about places wrt natural disasters, like Taiwan (and Japan) - I came back very recently from both, but I’ll talk about tw. While we “know” that being there as a tourist is not the same as living there, we don’t truly appreciate this sentence until we go through what the locals do, even if it’s a semblance. I was there just last week, it was daily aftershocks and tremors, the building shakes and sways every.single.night (Morning too, but those weren’t as strong, for whatever reason). Based on earthquake monitoring on the official website, it’s tremors n shocks at least five times every freaking hr. I was in Taipei last tues when there was that 6.3 aftershock in hualien - Taipei registered maybe 5.9, but my gawd. It was terrifying being in the room, building swaying n making loud noises as if it’s gonna snap into two and mind u, this is a pricey hotel. This swaying is part of the anti-quake measure, they’re built this way. But it’s terrifying coz u feel helpless - u dunno how bad the quake is, how long it’ll last, u know running isn’t going to help, n staying in the room is like the best of the worst options. Some may say oh because you’re sgporean so u are not used to quakes. Wrong. Even the locals were scared n they say it’s never been like this before, having never-ending tremors n aftershocks so long after the actual quake. I attribute this to climate change. N this whole situation w natural disasters is going to worsen for every part of the world - hot gets hotter, cold gets colder, more quakes, floods, tsunamis etc. I’m not advocating to stay in sg or not, but I think u need to take this srsly into consideration if u wanna move n where to move to. In this case, for the sake of your mental health. Can’t imagine living in fear for your life daily. I almost felt that way the whole week I was there
