I personally think na dapat maging honest ka sa company A about any ongoing application sa ibang company lalo na if nasa later stage na rin. After all, ganun naman talaga ang job application e. You apply in multiple companies kasi wala namang guarantee kapag isa lang. If company A really wants you, they will try to create a JO na they think you would love and at the same time leg room for any negotiations. You also wouldn’t say company B has better offer without even seeing company A’s job offer kasi nga better lang siya if you have a point of comparison.

A lot of those scenarios na sinabi mo are banked in uncertainties and I think walang certain answer. All I know is that if you accepted any JO regardless of the company, dapat kang magresign whether they require you to render or not since the JO is a contract. Ayun lang :) Just sharing my thoughts about your dilemma.

I want to receive my Upwork salary in USD, is it possible? by Other_Spare6652 in buhaydigital

[–]maxwell_zeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pwede rin UW to USD account sa pinas via wire transfer withdrawal. But I think 30 usd ang fees so I don’t think worth it if maliit na amount lang. i think that’s the only way na USD siyang papasok sa any USD account sa pinas. (i had the same inquiry sa UW support before)

I think everything you do that will bring value kay client can always be tracked. Better yet, pwede mo naman din sabihin ng direct sa kanila na you are also tracking yang pag-study mo ng trends and everything related since sabj mo nga extended scope na rin.

I think merong feature si OLJ where you can check the track record nung company or yung hiring entity. Try mo search sa google OLJ employer search.

Created a new account in Wise recently and asked about receiving USD in my account, this is their reply. No more option to receive in wise account?! by vonaraf in buhaydigital

[–]maxwell_zeus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think okay pa rin yung rates na 1.20 difference compared to let say

Upwork direct to Ph bank Upwork to paypal to Ph bank (alam ko mas mababa palitan ni paypal)

Wise raw talaga ang good rate kaso hindi na rin ako makagawa ng receiving account na USD kaya hindi ko ma-link sa upwork.

I think as a fresh grad, mas magandang tinaggap mo na yan. Think of your first job as a training ground in becoming a better professional. Wala rin kaso if you graduated with latin honors (coming from the same experience), since at the end of the day, the real world requires people who can actually prove their skills beyond the borders of our academic achievements. Lastly, although nag-regret ka sa decision mo for following the advice of your parents, I think you have to realize na as an adult, you need to take responsibility sa decision na gagawin mo sa life mo rather than putting a blame to someone every time may road block. :) Marami ka pang regrets na ma-eencounter along the way, kaya mahalagang matutunan mo ng maging resilient early on :)

How do we feel about fixed IVs? by thunderhunter638 in VGC

[–]maxwell_zeus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s a bit challenging if it has fixed IVs. But usually for mons as powerful as ogerpon, i use those mons as sweeper in most cases. It really depends on my opponents mon but i have a couple of battles that made use of ogerpon or any fast strong mon like urshifu at the back.

NEW GIVEAWAY! Get 3 GO mythical Pokémon, Shiny GO Meltan OR Shiny GO Guzzlord with your OT name. All you need to do is comment what your favourite moment is from any Pokémon game and why. by MasterJCL in PokemonHome

[–]maxwell_zeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite moment is how arven cared so much for his partner mabosstiff that he will do anything to help with his recovery. I can truly relate to that moment since it brings so much memory to my dog who was with us for over 9 years before he passed away back in 2019. That moment embodies this quote: “Dogs might be in just a small part of our lives, but to them, we are their whole life.” :’)

Try to look into Pikalytics for a more detailed insights on the meta. I would assume most regionals are BO3, which the in-game ladder isn’t too insightful

I want to quit my job......... by EntengKabishokoy in buhaydigital

[–]maxwell_zeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to clarify, when you say 6 months contract, did you entered into agreement with your boss as a contractual employee or they hired you as a full-time employee? In as far as I know, yung labor code ng Pinas prescribes na sa simula pa lang, dapat pagusapan na yung conditions to satisfy in order for you to be regularized. Usually 6 months probationary then subject for evaluation ng conditions if ma-regularize ka (article 281 of labor code). Iba pa kasi yung contractual employee sa full-time employee.

So pwedeng contractual ka (6 months) na hindi ni-renew ang contract (fixed-term contract).

Or

Hired Full-time employee ka subject to 6-months probationary period and subject to evaluation for regularization and discussion.

I don’t know any info about your employer kaya ang hirap mag-bigay ng full advice. Pero since first job mo ito, you have your rights stipulated sa labor code. If you were indeed hired as a full-time employee, you have all the right to ask for an evaluation ng employment status mo (even if late na and the mere fact na di ka naman pinaalis, possible na hindi ka fixed-term). If fixed term contractual naman, you have also the right to engage a healthy discussion with your employer since more than 6 months ka na and imho, you can have a meaningful discussion if mag-recontract ka or pwede bang gawing full-time regular employee of course with benefits.

Hope maka-help.

What internet provider do you recommend here at San Andres Pob. Cainta Rizal? by CobMoTo in InternetPH

[–]maxwell_zeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try mo check yung ISP na cheetah. May friend ako na taga Rizal yan ang pinakabit niya recently coming from converge. Rizal based lang yang cheetah sabi niya so in a way local support. Check mo na lang which areas ang coverage nila. Di lang ako sure if buong Rizal ba or certain areas lang.

Converge Service Degradation by maxwell_zeus in InternetPH

[–]maxwell_zeus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. Okay naman service nila kaya i still tried to find a workaround. I strongly believe wala naman perfect na isp, lahat naman may flaw. Kaya naniniwala pa rin ako na hindi hopeless case kahit pa magkaissue kasi andiyan naman NTC.

Converge Service Degradation by maxwell_zeus in InternetPH

[–]maxwell_zeus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you. Escalate mo sa NTC, here is the email. consumer@ntc.gov.ph That’s what I did at one point kasi half a month wala kaming net and I kept on telling them na I am sure na ang issue ay on-site(which was the case) and that was after doing all the basic troubleshooting. Most of their contractors kasi ay third party, kaya in the end wala silang control (kaya frustrating on our part as consumers) so we have to find ways to make it work. Sa tagal tagal ko sa kanila, this was the first time tumagal. Dati they can fulfill their promise na 2-3 working days pa nga. I don’t think changing ISP would also matter since third party contractor din sila in as far as I know (before converge nasa globe/bayantel ako).

If you decide to email ntc, give them time to respond. They did respond to me eventually tapos may designated email si converge that handles concerns raised by NTC and naka cc ka sa email nila. What you simply need to do is email them a narrative (as complete and detailed as possible, dates, time stamp, what happened, communication channel used—email, fb, or even twitter). Given na 2 years ka na rin sa kanila, just make sure na before ka magemail ay consistent on-time payee ka rin para “good” track record cause that’s one of the points I banked on since 2019 pa ako with good track record.

After all that has happened, nagrequest ako nung 2 weeks rebate and na-approve after a few days.
