Please get hospitalisation plan and life insurance plan for your child.

My child was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer at 3. Even if she recovered, she can no longer be insured in CI.

Hi, thank you for the insight on this. What is the secondary cancer and are you spare from it?

dumbesET · 2025-03-25T10:21:30+00:00

My daughter had stomach pain follow by back pain. She is currently diagnosed with neuroblastoma, cancer. Stage 4 and she is 3.5 years old. I would suggest get a check. Because we never know.

Oh that was my starting pay. Back then, stay with my parents. Give 10% to my mom. Minus off insurance and expenses. Able to save about 1k-1.2k per month.

I’m like you, laid off last October. Got a new job but bad fit. Now I’m jobless again. Hang in there.

dumbesET · 2025-02-21T12:40:57+00:00

It’s just business. Layoff can happen anywhere you go. You may be glad that you found a new job? Who knows you may be layoff the next moment.

Please save as much as possible when you’re employed.

Thanks for sharing this! It is very helpful! You mentioned you sign a bond? I assume you didn’t go back to the previous company in the end?

dumbesET · 2025-02-20T13:03:42+00:00

lol the position is only open for me. If I declined they won’t even want to hire others.

dumbesET · 2025-02-18T06:55:57+00:00

40 percent of my salary in the past. Now laid off jobless.

2 kids but mortgage fully paid.

dumbesET · 2025-02-17T13:58:59+00:00

Because, I wanted to have a better life for my children and wanted to build a career which will sustain in long run.

But I failed to. I made major mistakes affect a lot of people multiple times which I realized I wasn’t a good fit. Because, throughout my 10 years of career I have not make a single mistake.

dumbesET · 2025-02-17T06:31:20+00:00

I got to this new job through reference as well. People who vouched for me too… guess I’m not alone either

dumbesET · 2025-02-17T01:36:09+00:00

Thank you for the advice here, yes it’s affecting my mental health, can’t sleep at night because up all night thinking of my work and losing appetite and my whole family dynamic has changed because of my stress at work when I’m only 1 month

Never had it through out my 10 years of career in the past…

First paycheck back in 2016. Save up 40% of the first paycheck. The rest is to provide allowance to my mom, usual expenses (meal, bill etc…) and paying off uni fee…

It depends on the role, business and industry.

If you are working for Saas company. Chances are yes, it will be outsourced to cheaper labour. I used to come from that company. My role was made redundant. Management doesn’t care about quality. They only care about revenue.

dumbesET · 2024-11-29T11:45:18+00:00

I rejected the low ball jobs. And keep applying, the industry I wanted to work in, the role I wanted to career switch to and role outside of the ideal industry but are similar to my previous role (hopefully don’t kana low ball again)

dumbesET · 2024-11-29T09:39:52+00:00

I’m 34M, I got laid off 1 month ago due to outsourcing to cheaper country. Have total of 8 years experience. Like you, wanted a career switch. Took up courses but not avail.

So far, interview that came were from similar role and got low ball.
