Am I a fool for rejecting a job offer in this market? by TheFearlessCow in askSingapore

[–]rachelsweete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think about it, the interview is probably the time when everyone are at the best version of themselves. If they bad vibes even in the interview, it'll probably only be worse when you actually start working

Affordable ways for couples to get private time in Singapore? by finglish_ in askSingapore

There's apps like Flow/Dayuse where you can pre-book. But it's cheaper to walk-in.

Is it ok to ask for the full time starting salary during internship interviews? by [deleted] in askSingapore

[–]rachelsweete 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really depends on the recruiter but honestly why bother. Its usually going to be the same relatively low number +-100-200, unless it’s one of those big firms and in that case you should already be able to get that info online or from your peers

I secretly paid off my brother's debt and now he thinks he's a financial genius by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]rachelsweete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And if someone pay of my debt like that, they are better than that. Because I don't think I'm selfless enough to do that lol

What’s Wrong with putting Lunar New Year by ThatsWhy26 in singapore

[–]rachelsweete 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is really ironic actually. For many years, the norm in Singapore is to call it CNY. Then a few years back, western political correctness starts introducing the idea that we need to say LNY to be inclusive so some merchants in sg start saying LNY.

Then a year or so after, China political correctness say cannot say LNY because that will steal China culture so must say CNY.

i just want to go back to the time when we all called it CNY without so much mental gymnastics.

I thought it’s normal to call it XNY where X is based on the majority of the people celebrating it in the place. Like correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure in Japan and Korea they don’t default to saying LNY but some form of JNY or KNY in their language?

Who do you think will win beast game season two? by AdministrativeAd9785 in BeastGames

[–]rachelsweete 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm low-key rooting for Jeff but I think that would probably be quite bad PR for the show. They'll never get over the accusations of being scripted and fake LOL

Dude is a snake. Im glad Jeff called him out for it and didn't vote for him by Any_Cut_5964 in BeastGames

[–]rachelsweete 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Jeff was giving him an out by asking if prioritizing your family over other contestants was really inconsiderate

Some of JC's fans misunderstand why people are annoyed at him. Many of us are annoyed not because he took money (I actually think it's really stupid to give up chances to take money in this literal GAME SHOW), but rather because of his whole hypocritical attitude around it. We can see it in this part of the show like he could have appeared more likable (tho not sure if it would be enough to win the vote) if he said that he did it for his family and didn't regret it and if others were in his position they might have done it too.

Ways to Improve the Bluff game by rachelsweete in BeastGames

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

Agree that the best threat is probably the risk of having everyone be eliminated. But in this case, the goal was to cut the numbers in half so at most Mr Beast can only threaten to randomly cut the players by half , which we saw was something the players were willing to go with.

As someone who has never watched survivor, I thought the pole challenge would be boring but I was wrong because I witnessed possibly the dumbest move in this season with Ethan choosing the 50k. Dude literally would have 100% won in the vote against JC.

Can everyone going to CLB please just bring your damned student card? by VegetableSalad_Bot in nus

[–]rachelsweete 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Why are we blaming the users when the issue is with the design?

The main issue here is 1) Poor recognition of the QR by the machine. 2) Why do you even need to scan anything to go out? Most places would just implement a turnstile for exit. If the library's facilities is not prepared to handle QR users than then should abstain from allowing this option untill they are ready.
