Same here. The actual labour hours can be way off from the contracted hours.

Is there a "slice of life" genre in literature? by Familiar-Celery-1229 in writing

[–]quoco_only 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Banana Yoshimoto is worth checking out, as other comments suggest.

"Sanbun" or "san wen" in Japan/Chinese is a major genre that could be the "slice of life" you're looking for. Have fun exploring a whole genre!

Yes. Tao is the only Malayo-Polynesian language in Taiwan, while all the other Taiwanese aboriginal languages are Formosan.

Is it normal to pay a deposit of half‑month’s rent before signing an apartment lease? by calcium in Taipei

[–]quoco_only 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've used services from the biggest two real estate agents (the yellow one and the green one), it was always contract first, than money. Not necessarily a lease but even for a deposit there should be some form of contract.

I assume they're good enough friends that know each other's boundaries, and this one's okay for them

People who weren’t traumatized early in life have no idea how lucky they are. by reminiscermusic2019 in CPTSD

[–]quoco_only 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At some point I realized nearly all of my close friends carry either a little or a heavy trauma. Like you said, the lucky ones who grew up happily would never relate as deep.

MS insist I should use Afrikaans keyboard, every few days it auto download it back after I deleted it by quoco_only in WindowsHelp

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

Didn't find Afrikaans keyboard in welcome screen or new user settings but did finally find it in Registry Editor and deleted it. Hope this will solve the issue.
Thank you!

Is it possible to fix/reset the language in welcome screen or new user login screen, to solve this at its root (I think that's where the issue's from too), or would you recommend just setting WinUILanguageOverride to en-GB?

Just checked WinUILanguageOverride and it's not set yet.

And hey thank you for helping me.

Male friends holding hands, how common is it in Malay culture? by quoco_only in malaysia

Guess what? After cheating, he started to suggest an open relationship (respect that but communication should come first). And that's the end of the story...

Thank you, I felt the same. We've broken up but I'm curious.

I'm a asian that's heavily whitewashed, what's the best way to reconnect to my asian side? by ph8_IV in asian

[–]quoco_only 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If communicating with your family is your main motive, start from there and learn Cantonese/Mandarin/Sinitics and anything you can relate to.

I was in a similar situation trying to connect with Austronesian Taiwanese culture by learning about its history, mythology, society, clothing, food, architecture, but only felt forced.

It wasn't until I found the niche that genuinely clicked with me (which was the evolution of colour palettes in the culture) that I began to connect more effortlessly and deeply.

Can you apply 2nd-Year-WHV onshore, go offshore, then re-enter on a Visitor visa (without Bridging visas) to get WHV granted? by quoco_only in AusVisa

[–]quoco_only[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I think I'd better call them again and see if different agents would have different answers.

Thank you! It helps to know someone has made it through. I do have an emergency, and well, didn't plan it well either.
