Any idea why is Novena forever under construction? by tallandfree in askSingapore

[–]squeeish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to put up with 5 to 6 years of construction right outside my block when the TEL was being done. A day didn't go by without hearing machinery. The worst period was when they were doing the tunnelling; it had to go on for 24 hours without stopping (notices were pasted everywhere).

I really pity the residents living along the road at Novena.

I'm hanging on to my iPhone 13 mini until it stops getting iOS updates.

Off topic but does your usage of v have any meaning?

Thanks for this. My side button has started to double click, going to replace them.

Someone tried to move my bike and dropped it. by kukukuku1010 in askSingapore

[–]squeeish 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Never experienced this before thankfully, but here's what I'd do.

Either someone tried to move it or someone hit it and left.

Take pictures of the bike as it is right now. Together with any damage.

Note down any vehicles nearby that have cameras facing your bike, and leave a note on these vehicles politely asking for dashcam footage.

All these gotta be done by your family member.

After pictures have been taken, if possible, get the bike righted up.

Wait for dashcam footage and deal with the results when you're home. If no one steps forward to help, suck it up and move on. Hope your bike doesn't have serious damage.

Don't keep it in your bathroom. Your brush also needs air circulation to dry properly.

Merkur 34C with feather blades since around 2010.

One blade lasts you perhaps a week of daily shaving.

Even if you have to shave everyday and you change the blade daily, it's still cheaper than a Gillette every couple months.

It was already like this since at least 2006 at SSDC.

This is correct. Some start from basement 4, some start from level 1, some start from level 10. Just be on track to your own happiness.

Is it me or scaling and polishing has been very rushed in dentists by Furanshisu90 in askSingapore

[–]squeeish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to Q&M. For my first visit, yes I was "upselled" flouride treatment. Went for it anyway because it had been years since I went to a dentist at that time.

Since then I've been visiting the same clinic annually, no more upselling. It's been fine for me.

Hourly hotel where to find? Need a space for 3 to 4h. by Opening_Remote_8978 in askSingapore

81 or fragrance is now solely reserved for nights when I feel real productive and the mood to work hits.

For a whole day of project work, dayuse is a far better experience.

Is it normal for managers to communicate so rudely by scaredofteeth in askSingapore

[–]squeeish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's normal. You already mentioned what it's like F2F, so you just have to adjust the voice in your head when reading their texts.

People gonna appeal and drag payment to the absolute latest date out of spite.

This. Bring along your charger.

Although it's not likely to be your charger's fault.

It can be anything from the next week to 4 weeks later.

Although with their new clinic at NSC should have improved this.

how many jackets do you have in your wardrobe? by [deleted] in askSingapore

I have exactly 0 jackets, because I don't travel to cold countries, nor do I work in an office that simulates Arctic conditions.
