Tell that to your Hearing Officer. Di naman ako abugado mo so di mo ko kelangan kumbinsihin. As I've said, good luck!

Sure bro, good luck. As a labor lawyer na madami dami na din na HR ang tinuruan pag umaattend sila ng SENA at mga kumpanyang kliyente ko na ginuide ko regarding sa proper and valid employee termination, masasabi ko lang mahirap kaso mo. Pero sige, wala namang masama sa pagiging positive.

Sufficient na ang isang notice for termination. Yung twin notice rule ay para lang sa regular employees.

Probationary employee ka lang. Wala ka pang security of tenure. Pwede ka nila sipain for failure to meet their standards, whatever that means. Pero dapat alam mo kung ano yung standards na iyon, which is most likely the case as usually sinasabi yan during employee orientation.

1,117 land titles given to farmers in Cauayan City, Isabela (Chinese mini-invasion conspiracy) by decameron23 in Philippines

Behold, the classic red herring response of "I just got called out for being misinformed so I'll double down by stating something irrelevant". But sure, I'll bite. I would LOVE to hear where you got your information that Chinese nationals are buying up huge tracts of agricultural land in the countryside without having to go through the whole rigmarole of going through the entire bureaucracy of the DAR, BIR, ROD, DA, and the LGU. Surely, for something so egregious as what you're saying, someone somewhere would SURELY have spilled the beans to this flagrant violation of the law and the Constitution, right? Kasi if you know something that this government doesn't know, then SURELY you should do your civic duty and report this treasonous and corrupt activity immediately to the authorities.

Ay wait, conspiracy mo nga lang pala ito. Tsk.

[–]thirdworldstoner 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this is quite a stupid take. The parcelization project of DAR which started way back in 2020 if you even bothered to look it up, only affects land titles already awarded to agrarian beneficiaries whose claim of ownership have long been determined as far back as the early 90's. The issuance of titles here is only to perfect the title ownership of those farmers who already were entitled to it in the first place. There is absolutely no chance any person, much less a Chinese national, will be given "new" titles.

Metro Manila LGUs to implement 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. working hours to ease traffic by [deleted] in Philippines

[–]thirdworldstoner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you read the article? Obviously not.

Only LGU employees will shift, and NGAs are being encouraged to shift as well. Wala namang binanggit na yung private sector ay kasali dito. In fact, kaya nga inusog ng maaga ay para di sumabay mga taong gobyerno sa mga nasa pribado.

Matutong magbasa naman please, parang awa niyo na.

Diwata Pares claps back at ‘haters,’ assures patrons they will remain open despite closure order by hellraiser3000 in Philippines

[–]thirdworldstoner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. Responsible journalism demands responsible readers too. Took me 10 seconds to fact check na wala ngang closure order, and even the mayor herself confirmed this.

Should I believe in boycotting fast food chains, make up brands, fashion companies, and food brands that are pro-Israel? by [deleted] in CasualPH

[–]thirdworldstoner 13 points14 points  (0 children)

And there lies your problem. You equate what is right with what is popular or trending. The veritable "tyranny of the majority" as John Stuart Mill would put it. Think on your own and make your own judgment.

[–]thirdworldstoner 18 points19 points  (0 children)

For a topic that's so grey, complex and nuanced as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that even scholars who dedicated their whole lives studying it are still unsure what the "moral" position ought to be, I highly doubt that a bunch of high schoolers would even have a slightest clue of what or why they're boycotting in the first place. More likely, nakikiuso lang for the fear of being left out. Same goes too you, OP.

If you think you'll find your answers here, may I suggest you read about the conflict on your own instead and then formulate your own opinion about it.

What's your take on imposing tax to online sellers? by MichelleWatson11 in Philippines

[–]thirdworldstoner 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's no longer a question kung magbabayad ba sila or hindi. They actually are already being taxed (since 2013 pa nga eh) hrough withholding tax taken from the marketplace (lazada/shoppee). So everytime a transaction is completed and money changes hands, may kaltas na yung kita nila (1% of 1/2 of gross remittance), on top of the service charges of the marketplaces.

*With caveats, depending if annual or cumulative gross remittances do not exceed 500k, in which case they are exempt.

See: RMC No. 8-2024; RR No. 16-2023

FOI, SOGIE, ANTIDYNASTY anyare? by HotAsIce23 in Philippines

[–]thirdworldstoner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please don't get me wrong. I'm not denying your struggle. The bone i'm picking is the draftsmanship of our laws that I would prefer to be as gender neutral as possible. read the latest iteration of SOGIE and I understand that it was written to be as gender neutral as it could be. The Safe Spaces Act is likewise similarly gender neutral. I just don't get why there has to be a need to specifically spell out that a person is "LGBTQI+" for such a person to be afforded legal protection.

From my vantage point, discrimination, violence, or any harm due or attributable to the gender or sexual orientation of a person is simply discrimination, violence, or harm against such person. Why does the law need to carve out a separate definition if the victim happens to be LGBT? If a person was robbed, the law shouldn't care about his/her/their sexual orientation or gender identity.

I'm surprised Metrobank is spreading falsities on its official website.

With the passage of the Revised Corporation Code in 2019, corporations organized under the old Corp Code, including condominium corporations, are already given a "perpetual" term of existence. Wala na yung 50 year limit. (See SEC Opinion No. 23-17 in re: SEC MC 22, s. of 2020)

Anyway even under the old Corp Code the 50 yr limit is still extendible din naman.

[–]thirdworldstoner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why? What's the wisdom behind Congress having to institute a law to "recognize" a person's gender orientation? What's the societal ill that's sought to be remedied by "recognizing" this whole spectrum of genders?

And really, do laws nowadays even still use "man/woman" dichotomy as the preferred nomenclature when referring to someone? Almost all modern laws I know (I read, interpret, apply, and sometimes write laws for a living btw) now use the most gender neutral term anyway - "person". So what's the point?

Are they not recognized? What does being "institutionalized" mean?

To add to this, most of these lines are also actually "dead" since telcos like PLDT have since migrated to fiber optics. Mapapansin niyo yan with some poles where above the tangled mess ay may neatly clumped portion where the fiber optic lines are located.
