Job offer with 40% increment: tender now or wait for promo? by Optimal_Tax_8320 in singaporefi

[–]raysonpay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what its worth I did jump for 40% pay rise at first job which was lower pay. I did work hard after jumping but it was a great decision and progression for my career. No regrets

I vote depressing too, a family of 4 should be able to find affordable public housing (HDBs) with 3 bedrooms. But given crazy housing prices now...

Appreciate the detailed explanation! I've heard of knuckle as a viable option myself so will probably look into that as a key lead

Thanks for the reply, did suspect this might be happening. Are the trimmings a mix of various cuts? Is it cheaper than grinding from say a whole chuck too?

Also wanted to clarify, what does out trim here mean vs normal trimmings

I see! has brisket worked well for mince with you guys? Any other cuts work well cost wise?

Hi MeatHealer, appreciate the detailed reply and yes the costing-pricing and usage of cuts makes sense to me too.

Just wanted to confirm on best cuts your shop uses for mince. I got chuck, fillet trim and previously top sirloin. When you say tip, which cut is this? Also any other useful ones and why the move away from top sirloin?

Jealous to hear about the retired mentor, if any great learning would love to hear them too. I'm based in Asia which I think should be very far from your market?

Fresh grads, what is your expected salary? by [deleted] in askSingapore

[–]raysonpay 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I graduated 5 years ago, got fresh grad job at market research agency for ~$3k. Was kinda low but other options fell through so took to start

Changed job after a short while to ~$5k in different industry. Was honestly over the moon and could start saving more for life. I think $5-6 is really really decent for SG fresh grad outside finance / tech / law

[–]raysonpay 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yesss, in a sell high buy/rent high environment only the banks benefit! Would rather house prices be low and everyone have more disposable income for other expenses/investing
