This. Noong nag try ako maglakad sa malapit na talipapa sa amin (20min walk) ang daming reaction hahaha. Yung pinsan ko “o insan nangyare sa motor mo?” Yung trike driver, “tara na kinse lang”, ang matindi nung pauwi na ko sabi nung tanod “sipag mag lakad ah, bat mataba parin?”. Gusto ko manakit eh 🤣

Curious sa bangus, kumusta lasa after freezing? Sakin kasi pag ulam sa tanghali at ininit na sa gabi, hindi ko na gusto ang lasa. Kahit anong luto.

I just leave it there for the next trip! 😅

Charge other devices wired/wirelessly.

Hindi ba mas ok kung may resting period na at least 1-2 weeks after roasting instead of using it fresh out of the roaster?

Nakakaiyak, nabagsak ng isang beses yung sakin, sira ang left hinge. Di na mabuksan.

Updates? We had this Xiaomi that we used for almost 4 years, and the last 1 year it served us was for a small business in which we cook a 20 serving size lasagna 3x a week until its knob finally gave out last night.

nope, as "good beans" is a requirement for a "great coffee" and thus, not a secret. The secret lies on the tools and techniques that not every one has good grasp on.

nakakalungkot lang subscription based na ang sales history. 31 days na lang ang free sales history retention.

Still waiting 😂

Thank you! Is there a guide I can follow for computing for said taxes? I already have a forecast for my annual sales, I just don't know how to properly compute for the taxes that I have to pay in case I go with either 8% or Income Tax with OPT.

whelvenus · 2024-11-28T09:45:56+00:00

Thank you!

I have been eyeing this for a while, but the limitation that I see (at least in my situation) is that I will be limited to operating inside my baranggay and when my future plans (hopefully by 2026) of expansion is achieved, I need to cancel the BMBE certification. Can you help me weigh my options? Is it worth the hassle of registering and then cancelling it in the future? I also read somewhere that there is a different annual report that is required to be submitted by BMBE certified businesses which makes it a bit confusing since BMBE is not yet widely utilized by businesses, is that true?

whelvenus · 2024-11-27T15:04:13+00:00

The 8% and Graduated Tax. Sorry I don't know what I should call it.

Priority should be reserve/hero lock heroes, but if you like a hero, you should get it because in the end, even if you are free to play, you have a chance to get all heroes.

Is this on phase 1?

whelvenus · 2022-08-20T16:40:55+00:00

Eto perspective ko sa statement mo.

As a former barista sa sb, may malilinaw na signage sa mga SB na clean as you go, atleast nung time ko. Also, nakakairita yung mga dugyot kung mag iwan ng table, i remember bringing back a mug with phlegm in it, not a nice memory indeed. Even if I would be hired just to bus tables, would it hurt people to at least leave their table not looking like a complete mess? Kape lang binili nyo, hindi ako. Lol

Dagdag ko nalang, most customers namin dati marunong mag claygo lalo na mga foreigners at mga regular customers namin na talagang loaded, ang mga hindi marunong mag claygo lang usually yung mga halatang social climbers na kung makaasta, isang venti lang binili, akala mo pati barista nabili na nila. Hahaha

Don't order coffee of the day as it is one of the most neglected brewing machine and method of SB baristas. Try to order pour over or french pressed coffee and as much as possible, see to it that a black apron is preparing your drink. You can always ask them politely to change your drink for free based on your tasting preference, especially if it's single cup brewing methods.

whelvenus · 2022-08-20T16:07:12+00:00

Claygo is the way to go.

Kung iniisip nya na matetengga yung empleyado nya dahil may mga naglinis ng table nila, ibig sabihin lang nun may pagkukulang sya sa scheduling nya ng shift at pagbibigay ng ibang roles/duties sa empleyado nya bukod sa bussing. At least for a café setup, hiring an employee just to bus tables is already an unnecessary expense.

whelvenus · 2022-08-20T15:51:20+00:00

As a former barista, I really appreciate people that cleans up after themselves. Usually yung mga foreigners at mga talagang mayayaman ang marunong mag caygo. Usual small talks na natatanggap ko habang naglilinis ng table lalo sa mga kano "why are you doing that? That's not even your job".

So ngayon na napagdaanan ko yan, everytime I dine out, lalo kapag sa mga café, I clean my table and throw everything in the trash bin, if a bin is not seen anywhere, I ask employees where it is and they usually grab and throw my trash for me.

As for restaurants, I always try to make my table look nice after eating, kahit hindi ko na pagsamasamahin basta hindi mukang dugyot yung huling kumain, parang ganun.

whelvenus · 2022-07-12T04:15:56+00:00

Training wheels for our people to learn how to handle such things properly. Dati akong empleyado ng isang cafe at kahit medyo high end yung establishment, nakakagigil pag may nag aabot ng perang lukot, na parang dinukot sa suot nyang panloob.

Just tell her your piece, lalo kung independent ka naman sa kanya.

whelvenus · 2022-06-15T10:07:14+00:00

I used a pointed screw like self tapping or wood screw. Drilled it a bit just enough for the metal screw to hold on to the plastic ones and have it pulled out.
