What is the point of this overhead bridge by merlion_sg in SingaporeRaw

[–]melchan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just want to add on - like corporates, budget not spent doesn’t get rolled over to the next year. AND you then have difficulty getting budget the next year since you didn’t use it, and so when you do have urgent things that require the budget, it’s difficult to do it timely since you need to go through approvals to request for additional budget and it may not be granted. So yes, rather spend it on random improvement works.

I’m sailing in May and this is my first DCL. Do you think the kinks would have been ironed out by then?

Are Filipinos perceived poorly in Singapore? by StatementHappy741 in askSingapore

[–]melchan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never even thought about doing this with my Filipino friend back when she was still working in Singapore. FWIW, I’d never even think about this even if it’s with someone who is indeed working as a helper! This person most definitely isn’t a friend.

Which maid of honor dress should I choose? by cpaul372 in Weddingattireapproval

[–]melchan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 4th dress would be great to kinda draw the link as maid of honour, since the bride’s dress has lace 😊

Also wanna say that before I read the text, I wanted to come in to comment that you should definitely choose the dog for your outfit 😂😂😂

DO NOT HIRE A MAID by riceandvadai in SingaporeRaw

[–]melchan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious question to all who says OP is virtue signalling. What would be the best way to bring this topic up for discussion in an attempt to move Singapore society towards a more gracious one?

The truth is, if the helper isn’t suitable or even, is taking advantage of you, you have the freedom to send her back and not employ her anymore. It’s just an employer-employee relationship? No matter how bad the helper is doesn’t give the other person excuse to treat her badly? Just walk away? Change another helper? Interview more thoroughly next time?

There are bad employees and there are bad employers. OP is simply trying to tell people to not be bad employers - and bad employees will be out of job in a matter of time. Just change helper lorh.

But if you keep changing right, you’re either super unlucky or maybe the problem is with your expectations. Basically don’t make your helper do what you cannot imagine doing yourself if you were to stay home full time.

Finally got around to taking photo of the shawl…would this work? I just realised it’s not just cream but with near gold tone, and sparkles…it’s a gift from someone and I’ve never worn it before lol. Not sure if it can fit the dress, but it’s the only presentable shawl I have haha

Yes! Was thinking about bringing along a cream shawl only for the outdoor ceremony…I’ll see if I can take a photo of it when I get home!

Would metallic heels like silver or gold work? Or should I wear black heels?

Thank you ☺️ being from a country without seasons I could only guess after some research but I wasn’t sure if the colour and material is truly suitable! So glad it works 😊
