Official Announcement!
Published on Tuesday, August 31, 2010 by WishBoNe *drum rolls* I've found an educational job in a primary school. Waking up at 4.30am because the travelling time just sucks up my precious 24 hours daily. Not that I mind too much since the kids have been rather entertaining than me trying to get them to interact with me during the lessons. The kids have this sense of curiousity that amuses me. Their huge eyes will ... Read More »

Is There Really Fair Employment?
Published on Friday, June 25, 2010 by WishBoNe I am not sure how it began just that having looked through various job advertisements asking for all sorts of strengths that a potential candidate should possess, I keep seeing "Please send your resume with PHOTO to <email>. Only shortlisted candidates will be selected." I don't mean to be skeptical but does that mean that only nice looking candidates with some ... Read More »

What Pet Society Teach About Active Income
Published on Wednesday, March 17, 2010 by WishBoNe Having been playing Pet Society for some time although not daily, I found a link between Pet Society and real life jobs. Both have one thing in common; you get paid for the things you do. That's called active income. If you don't log in for a job, you are either on no pay leave for those who are doing part time, or on leave (work still gets piled up). For Pet Society,... Read More »

Illogical Delay of Pay Cheque
Published on Tuesday, January 26, 2010 by WishBoNe I have been through this before and I am trying to stay calm. It's not easy when the contract stated one thing but the recruitment agency decided to modify the ambiguous statement to their benefits. Of course everyone is out to gain something. However, this delay of my salary has gone too far. How can a requirement agency be unable to get a person after 3 weeks? Unles... Read More »

Irresponsible Recruitment Agency
Published on Monday, December 28, 2009 by WishBoNe It's my first time using this recruitment agency's services and I must say, I'm utterly horrified, to say the least, at their business ethics. After getting me down to their office for an interview with photocopies of my NRIC, I was later informed that I was to attend an interview at the company. I went through all that without any hitches. It was when I had submit... Read More »

Stint Ends in A Week
Published on Friday, October 23, 2009 by WishBoNe Travelling to work can be a tedious task if I have to board squeeze into the crowded bus along with thousands of others who are also going to the same place. I have to do the same in the evening and try to be the 1st to board since the bus driver can be too generous with sudden brakes that make everyone move with inertia towards the front while the standing ones fall ...

What a Cheater!
Published on Thursday, July 9, 2009 by WishBoNe Imagine your childhood friend comes along and tell you that he/she is having a business venture that is sure to have high returns and raving about how many people he/she has found. Would you want to know more? Of course! You would want to be a part of it even! Having prepared a sum of money that could be part of your marriage or other investment plans, you hope that t...

Michael Jackson Gone Forever
Published on Tuesday, June 30, 2009 by WishBoNe When I first heard Michael Jackson's songs, it was the music video titled "Black or White". [youtube ZI9OYMRwN1Q] What fascinated me were the changes of the people inside the video. Male to female and back to male again with different races coming in together for this video. Michael Jackson incorporated that no matter what race or skin colour one is, we are stil... Read More »

Times Look Uncertain Now
Published on Tuesday, June 9, 2009 by WishBoNe I may not be subscribing to any newspapers now but I do know that there are still companies retrenching in hundreds only to hire people with a lower pay. There are many ways to be laid off. The feeling that the boss is telling you "I'm letting you go" due to various reasons. Check out the reasons that people are being laid off here. Just because of a burn incident... Read More »
