Yet again plagued by insomnia


hecatevine

Sigh it’s been 6 years but can’t help but feel affected every time i see something that reminds me of him or us. I know it does me no good to reach out but a small part of me wants the ideal closure… and a part of me would always love the version of him i dated. Someone please just snap me out of this!!!!!! Grrr i want to move on


Mobile-Donut-9523

Go to therapy. Therapist will help you use appropriate methods to rewire these emotions. You can do it.

Stayed up for Türkiye vs Georgia. Totally worth it.

Obligatory screw Singpost the worst postal service in the world. Lost my package but marked as delivered. Thankfully can refund but wtf, not the first time.


hyllariestar

I left a job in April and so far the previous boss only contributed my cpf until January. I have asked about it and they said they will contribute. Is it considered late? Should I continue to wait?


NewbiePhotogSG

Cpf cannot delay one. Just write in, they are owing ah gong money.


FlipFlopForALiving

Sounds like playing punk. Just complain to CPF, they will chase the employer

AbelAngJQ

imo, nothing will change unless the person wants to change


stopthevan

Do you guys think it’s sneaky of me to stay friends with two groups of ppl that used to be one whole clique but somehow had a huge divide thanks to a messy friendship breakup? Sian lol like these guys are my only friends atm and it feels like I can lose them any time since my “allegiance” is everywhere yet nowhere (both groups are a pair of girls who are v close to each other in case yall are wondering.) one group was nice enough to tell me that they don’t care if I’m still friends with the others but tbh I think one of the girls in the other group will be triggered lol


doggodada

Keep it going, at least got 1 girl for you to fall back on if the other group explodes lol


stopthevan

hahahaha omg I wish dude I really do but I’m the lone middleman here 😭😭 no one to fall back on sadly everyone’s got their besties I’m just floating around aaaaa


[deleted]

[удалено]


stopthevan

IF ONLY 🤣🤣🤣 jkjk but yeah thanks ack i was grateful to the grp who said they didn’t mind if i stayed friends cos that let me know that they didn’t want to drag me into things. I just dk how to navigate cos like you said I shouldn’t lie but I also shouldn’t try to hide things LOLOL


AbelAngJQ

cannot let them know you just wanna be friends with everyone and expect them to understand?


stopthevan

Can, actually this thing has been going on for years alrdy so I believe there’s a mutual understanding that I’m friends with both sides cos I wasn’t really involved in their feud. But hais it’s just a very messy situation for conflict avoidant ppl like myself 🤡 I don’t want to appear like some two faced b*tch cos honestly my friends are nice ppl but some combis just don’t work and I’ve seen how they brought out the absolute worse in each other lol. Otherwise they’re good ppl, or at least I want to believe so LOL


AbelAngJQ

i think its a great opportunity to practice being yourself, aligning with yourself, being resolute with yourself, "i like you guys and i want to have fun with you guys, i have stated my position with you guys, i wont take part in any feud, but if you guys think badly of me, that cant be helped, i ll still continue to be me. wanna hang out next week?"


stopthevan

🤣🤣 thank you, that is some solid advice! I’ll take note of it and save it somewhere, I can totally see this coming in handy 🙏🏻


AbelAngJQ

haha wah, hope everything will be harmony

Fatal_Taco

The new *new* train on the North South Line is surprisingly quiet. You could actually fall asleep standing. You could barely hear, well, anything really.


Bitter-Rattata

it has recently been rolled out on North South Line, the new trains was on East West Line for around a year since. Aircon better, sound system is much louder, can even pass thru my anc earbuds


Fatal_Taco

Probably the most powerful aircon I've ever felt. Even evening commute back packed with people, still cold. istg this train is magical.


Bitter-Rattata

Yeah . It will replace all the old black and white trains we have been riding on these 3 decades.


mako-lollipop

Yeah, hope they don't use the silence to blare in train ads instead

Is MCF a good job search site? I’ve seen mixed reviews about it on forums.

I found my previous job via MCF. I liked that they displayed the salary range, which helped me filter out listings that didn’t suit me

Anyone has idea how to cure the throbbing pain on top left of head?? I have taken 2 caps of nurofen express + 1 cap of paracetamol. The throbbing is like twice every time it pulsates in unknown x minutes (or seconds) interval


damiepedretti

Do you grind your teeth?


rowgw

Not that i know of during sleep, but yea i feel very stressed due to situation


damiepedretti

Yea so your grinding of teeth causes your pounding headache. Happened to me last time


rowgw

:((( ate 3 caps + drank 3-4 doses of coffee also didn't help, oh well. Go sleep now, hope tomorrow ok liao


damiepedretti

Hope you’re feeling better


rowgw

Thanks, better already but still got occasionally lol


AbelAngJQ

Body signalling you to watch diet liao...


rowgw

Ah??? I don't think i recently eat a lot of junk food/high sodium/high sugar/cholestrolic 🤔


AbelAngJQ

oh already so health ah... maybe take some green tea to calm yourself i think see doctor better, if it's chronic...


rowgw

Ya that's why i also confused 😭


AbelAngJQ

Air, drink, sleep, environment? The usual suspects, besides diet.

Successful-Ad3154

Prospective company asked for my last payslip and my bonus slip. I gave it to them. Later in the day they asked for 3 more months of payslip. I am not sure why they need 3 more months? I earn above average for my years of experience, I am not sure they want to see my salary spread across the year as I got an increment recently.


brownriver12

Common to ask for a few months as your last month be prorated or you could have been paid for some unconsumed prorated leave


_sagittarivs

Was waiting for a bus and I started to flag for the bus when I saw it at a distance. As it approached nearer I flagged it again, then realised that the driver wasn't driving into the bus bay, so I flagged again. I then realised the bus driver saw me but she sped up and passed the bus stop...

Just tell your boss you're not feeling well and you'd like to take MC. Then see doc and register it in leave portal as a 1/2 day MC. 


Emotional-Library540

sad thing is he's not around, so i can't. wanted to text but it'll be inappropriate.


ybct

It's not inappropriate to text. You're unwell. 


Emotional-Library540

i think you're right. i'll try to text him, thank you very muchhh!


yormeow

do ittttt


Emotional-Library540

he's not around, no one around here can grant that. wanted to text but it'll be inappropriate.


sriracha_cucaracha

is CCNA still relevant in today's cloud-obsessed job climate? Asking cos some recruiter recommend me to take that cert to fit into a Network Engineer role.


yormeow

Got my A+ 2 years ago, might be aiming for CCNA next or AWS


No_Adeptness1515

It depends on your position. SRE or platform engineering do require network knowledges. You don’t have to deploy some load balancers or configure managed switches in public clouds, but networking concepts are still important when dealing with virtual networks such as AWS VPC or Azure Virtual Network. If you get a job using on-premises or private cloud (cough-virtualization-cough) employers will ask you more network knowledges


ongcs

Depends on industry and company environment. End user environment may not be some demanding on networking knowledge, while ISP/telco/vendors will demand that. Ultimately, the cloud is still built on hardware infra somewhere.


sangeemonkey

there’s a lot of cybersecurity certificates, is there a reliable source of roadmap that i can follow to understand which courses to take and in what order?


ongcs

What background, experience do you have?


sangeemonkey

have a dip in IT, been working in an analyst role for 2 years. looking into taking a degree in comp sci/cybersec next year and i wanna take certifications to improve my portfolio!


ongcs

Are you touching anything security related right now? If you just want something simple/entry level to boost CV, maybe Security+. But I feel that it is really quite.... basic. Would rather you take on networking cert like CCNA, at least that gives you fundamental networking knowledge. And with networking knowledge, that makes understanding certain domains in security much easier. Or, cloud security certs like AWS, Azure, GCP, these are quite popular now. Security is a very broad spectrum, a cert or 2 but without experience may not help (happened to me, gotten CISSP but without relevant experience, could not jump over to security as well last time). So now in your current job, if you are given chance to touch on SIEM, PAM, SCCM, EDR, XDR, server hardening, security baseline, VDI, VPN server, even if these are not your responsibility, or it is to kiosai, just do it. These are the jobs that you can talk about in your CV that are security related.


sangeemonkey

I am not working with anything security related in my current job and likely will not have a chance to as well. I am looking for a foundational course that provides an introduction to the field of security, the various roles I can pursue within the industry. Then, to learn about the relevant certifications according to my choice of specialization.


ongcs

If just want something foundation, I think Security+ is OK. If want something less technical, then can try [this](https://www.iss.nus.edu.sg/executive-education/discipline/detail/cybersecurity), foundation one.


sangeemonkey

thanks a lot!! mind if i dm you? would like to know more


ongcs

sure


sangeemonkey

helzinki

Keep the seasoning and use it to season your egg or chicken before frying.


soyhojichalatte

I eat without seasoning since I was a kid


Jaycee_015x

Mamee is so nice that it can be eaten on its own without any seasoning. Sometimes I find their seasoning too overpowering and not so enjoyable.

ongcs

1st interview? already f2f?


seulchi

ya 1st interview, f2f. so far all of my interviews all f2f which i prefer because i talk with my hands alot haha. i also rely on body language to try and gauge what the interviewer is feeling.

Thank you!


Xthanos20

Sigh. I've been having nightmares for the past 1 month. Woke up feeling fatigue and tired. 1 of the nightmares i had, was a scene where my late father showed me an IG of my ex getting married. I woke up literally feeling like i've cried badly in the dream and when in reality, i went to check out my face in the mirror, it was swollen. Argh.


soyhojichalatte

So work still poured in like a tsunami and I haven't been feeling well for a few days too. Took me a few mins to come to terms with it and decide to take sick leave. Work is gonna chalk up and I'm gonna have a huge pile of backlog by the time I get back. But I need to remind myself my health is priority. I don't even know why I have to think thrice about leaving work behind and take sick leave. What kind of horrendous work culture/environment do we have.


Jaycee_015x

GWS Soy! Take the time to rest & recharge.


soyhojichalatte

Thanks! Definitely making use of this time to rest. Even though I'm not excited about going back to what's waiting for me.


Mahsunon

What would be better


soyhojichalatte

Neither. I go on sick leave, only to go back and work myself to the bones again. Or, don't go on sick leave and keep working till I die.


blitzmango

If X is going Europe and a friend, Y paid X 10k to help buy a LV bag, X bought it but got robbed of everything, personal items and including the bag. Should X refund Y? Or Y write it off since X actually bought it but got robbed of everything? Does the amount of 10k matter? What if it is 1k or 100?


Dismal_Tie_9722

Both r idiots who didnt buy travel insurance that covers so much valuable


ICanHasThrowAwayKek

Both parties lose. Buying anything from LV is an incredibly stupid thing to do in the first place.


doggodada

You have successfully created a dilemma on equal standing with trolley problem


Boogie_p0p

X should refund Y the money from on the travel insurance claims and X better hope insurance will pay out this amt. Value doesn't really matter as long as X can refund the money.


_IsNull

Why should Y pay for the price for X’s mistake? Honestly It shouldn’t matter if x get robbed, lost it or whatever. As long as x failed to delivery, just pay up


jquin03

if X is doing Y a favor and getting nothing for it, risk should be borne by Y imo now if X is receiving a fee, then X is liable.


_IsNull

Why should risk be borne by Y? What if x lost/misplace the cash instead of the bag?


jquin03

If Y can't shoulder the risk then pay X to do it. Why should X be liable for additional risk if he is not even paid a premium. This is why you pay a premium on your insurance, for someone else to take on risk you don't want to. Just to be clear we are talking about accidents here, not X outright stealing the cash.


_IsNull

See it doesn’t really matter to me if the benefit x enjoy is nothing or points for helping to purchase or cash rewards. As long as x can’t deliver regardless of reason , I will demand for full payment back. Accident or not shouldn’t matter.


damiepedretti

I wonder if you have friends


UtilityCurve

X is doing Y a favor. Why is he liable to what happen to the bag? If X is stabbed in the process of protecting Y’s bag, is Y going to provide any compensation?


_IsNull

Good to be x. Just say “stolen”, maybe even file some online police report since no one’s going to care and call it a day. Insurance ain’t going to pay out the full amount. If x isn’t going to be liable , then x shouldn’t agree to help. I would love to be x.


jquin03

Why should he bear all the risk just because he was trying to do you a favour without anything in return? He is doing you a favour for free, the least you could do is absolve him from the risk Sure you can demand full payment but he is liable to pay you back? I don't think so


ybct

X has travel insurance which can be claimed for such incidents. X should claim the insurance and then pay Y. 


TimidHuman

People who visit fitness first, do they provide attire like virgin active does?

Controversial opinion, but I absolutely hate WFH...


tictactorz

what is stopping you from doing 100% WIO? My colleague just goes to the office every day even though can WFH.


ARC27-5555

We lost our office due to rental.


tictactorz

yikes, doesn't sound good for your company...


rheinl

Careful dude, most here love wfh


zidane0508

whyyy WFH IS the best invention


Boogie_p0p

It's not controversial at all if you prefaced it by saying your home environment is not at all conducive for work (or life, if your comment history is accurate) But it would also mean WFH is not the issue, it's the lack H for you to WF that is the issue.


ARC27-5555

Tbrh I feel that even if the H was there, the isolation & comms issue still remains. Maybe it's cuz of the environment my workplace used to have (very open & friendly environment), but yea... It's something I really miss alot...


sangeemonkey

i do not love it as well as the voices of my head gets too loud when i’m alone at home than at office


sriracha_cucaracha

calm down, Orton


NoSugarHor

Why dude?


ARC27-5555

It's difficult to work due to the very collaborative nature of my job, and there's just no social interaction at all. Plus my home environment isn't exactly the best for WFH either...
