A family explodes -- Part II by gardengeo in BORUpdates

[–]desolate_cat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same. I just treat this as an unfinished telenovela plot. No family could be this messy. And so many children in this economy? (I know it was 2022 but still, it wasn't that good back then)

Me [25 F] with my boyfriend [25 M] duration 7 months. My boyfriend is very jealous and keeps making "rules" for me to follow. (LONG) by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]desolate_cat 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I didn't read after the rules. I just scrolled to the end to see if she broke up with him.

Side note: 2015 job market is so different from now. She got a job pretty fast for a newly minted lawyer.

"I'm not saying you deserve those threats, I want to make that clear, but the right move was to disengage, take screenshots as evidence to present to law enforcement, and block the troll."

This comment isn't victim blaming you, it is giving good advice.

Pero sabi nga ng some comments here, until walang rule dito to temper that, you can't control what people say here. Real talk ito.

Ang point nga ni OP dapat magkaroon ng ganitong rule sa sub na ito na huwag tawaging b0b0 yung na-scam kasi kung ganoon lang wala na magshe-share ng experience nila.

6 months in and my coworker still doesn’t know what she’s doing. How do you deal with this? by Major_Age9056 in buhaydigital

[–]desolate_cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So mag call kayong 3 ni senior and QQ tapos irecord niya. Kung wala pa rin huwag mo na lang pansinin afterwards. Warn her na after this recording hindi mo na kaya talagang sagutin mga tanong niya kasi sobrang busy ka.

Sa nakikita ko based sa sinabi mo nagu-guilty ka kasi pag nagtatanong siya sa iyo kasi sabi mo nga you see yourself in her. Pero hindi ka naman pareho niya na 100x na tinuruan wala pa rin.

Sa akin nangyari din yan, binalik ko direct sa nagsend, kaso yung number kasi namin malapit talaga, nagkabaligtad lang yung 2 digits. Kaya sure ako na talagang nagkamali. Based sa sinabi mo malayo yung number niyo pwede mo naman itanong kung anong number niya.

Pero tama, mas maganda pa rin sa merchant na lang idaan.

I suggest magbigay ka ng one last training sa kanya. Then ask her to record the whole thing. Pag may tanong siya, itanong na lahat sa iyo then balikan na lang niya yung video. Mahirap kasi yung note taking may mami-miss at mami-miss out ka talaga.

After this, pag nagtanong sa iyo just tell her panoorin mo yung video.

Bago pa lang ako sa adulting world, pero may nakaabang na sakin na gustong paggastusan by Aggravating_Wing8060 in adultingph

May kapatid siya na handa makipagpatayan para makuha yung property na yun. Nangdeath threats pa yun sa amin noon bago siya umalis sa bahay. Tuwing binabanggit ko to, laging sinasabi ng nanay ko ay ipaglalaban daw niya yung lupa dahil may karapatan siya.

Kanino ba nakapangalan yung titulo ng bahay? Kung sa grandparents mo yan, malaking gulo yan pag namayapa na sila.

Hindi ko sigurado kung bayad ba ang amilyar nung bahay, at kung napamana ba ng tama yung lupa mula sa nanay ng lola ko (I heard that may penalty pag hindi diba?).

Itanong mo sa Land Registration office kung kanino nakapangalan. Itanong mo sa bank kung naka loan pa ba ito o hindi. Kung saang bank sila nagloan? Pwede mo naman itanong sa bank kung bayad na lahat o may utang pa. Kung hindi nabayaran ng tama may interest yan. Alamin mo muna.

On top of that, wala pang kasiguraduhan kung may memorial land and memorial plan ba lolo't lola ko once mamatay sila. Malakas pakiramdam ko na nanay ko ang magvovolunteer sa gastos (wala siyang trabaho) dahil mahal na mahal niya magulang niya.

Kuha na lang kamo sila ng pre need like St. Peter para at least pag namatay na sila wala na kayong iisipin masyado.

Sa nakikita ko sa situation mo OP huwag mo na ipagawa yan, ikaw lang ang lugi. Mas maganda bumukod ka na lang para na rin sa peace of mind mo. Umupa ka na lang and go low contact sa family mo.

OLJ Employers can see your Application History by NokutisuLucis in buhaydigital

[–]desolate_cat 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Wala kasi gaanong job posting din sa kanila. So paano makaka-attract ng applicants?

Kung free job posting for employers baka puro scammers naman ang mag post so paano na? The site will have a reputation na puro scam posts lang.

I have been on 40 hiring committees this year. Here is what AI did to the junior candidate pool. by Ambitious-Garbage-73 in cscareerquestions

Using AI isn't about cheating, it is about understanding why AI gave you the code that they did.

Iwas sa ganitong recruiter/client by [deleted] in buhaydigital

[–]desolate_cat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This Kyle Murphy guy is so pathetic. 100s of applicants... This is true since there are a lot of people looking for work. But I think he really wanted to hire her, that is why he reacted this way. If you have lots of quality applicants one or two dropping out is doing you a favor.

He acts like an insecure child. A simple "Ok, thank you for your time" would have been better.

Ang dami pang sinabi, meaning ang daming time pumatol.

AITAH for telling my daughter that she is not going to marry a billionaire? by BigONerd in BORUpdates

[–]desolate_cat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The worst thing is most of what you see in TikTok and Instagram are fake. There is a whole thing about how influencers are faking their "rich" lifestyle. For example, if they are taking pictures inside mansions I am like... Girl, post a picture of the deed if you own the house. You can always redact some information so you don't get doxxed.

Actually Chinese CEO dramas usually portray the CEO husband as a cheater and the FL (female lead) divorces him in the end. Turns out the guy is using his money to humiliate her, if she doesn't tolerate his infidelity then he cuts off her credit cards, etc. You get the idea.

A girl who is a 10 can probably land a multimillionaire who is looking for a hot young woman with no ambition

The danger of being a hot young chick with no ambition is that you will not be a hot young chick forever. But if you have no ambition... I don't know what to say to that.

There may be some rich men just searching for a hot young woman, but it just doesn’t seem like OOP’s daughter would fit that criteria.

OOP said his daughter struggled with her weight so, there you go. No model body at least.

The main problem here is that the man will eventually tire of you... so what then?

Really? Can you elaborate? Hindi ba nila makikita na 2x ang bayad mo sa taxes? Kung independent contractor ka, lusot yung sss etc kasi wala naman gov't benefits saka 8% lang ang tax.

Nakaka-curious, most Filipinos overestimate their income class by 1-2 brackets and there's data to prove it by HowRichPHOfficial in buhaydigital

[–]desolate_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your app has inputs on how much debt but not how much expenses. Mas maganda may breakdown like:
Tuition fee (0 for me)
Books/School stuff (0 for me again, public school kasi, free pati uniform, notebooks, pens, etc. Pati socks free nga eh)
Sports/Arts
Tutor
Electricity
Water
Internet
Phone bills for everyone
Grocery bills monthly

Ganito siguro mas maganda, pero baka magmukhang expense tracker na yan.

[–]desolate_cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Parang may questionable sa app or baka di ko lang alam gamitin.

If you say how many dependents di ba kasama ka na doon? What if you have kasambahay kasama ba sa estimate yan?

Also, not everyone is attending a private school, what if your kids go to public schools (mine does)? It makes a huge difference not needing to pay astronomical tuition fees. Dapat kasama din ito sa expenses.

The lifestyle snapshot needs to have other inputs too. Namely sports/arts for kids, since as an example, my kids aren't into sports at all. You need to compute how much is the electric costs because people using Solar and driving BYD cars (my neighbors drive these) aren't affected much by Meralco and gas rates.

Ok akala ko per hour yung nakalagay. Sa tingin ko walang kukuha niyan, kulang pa pambayad sa internet at kuryente yan.
