bonus

i dont know which cock had to idea or spread the idea of compulsory 1 month bonus.

i noted that some clients n friends tot tat 13th month is compulsory, which in any way, is not. there is no law or rules that it is...

the wages committee only recommend 13th month for employees. BUT note the word used is 'recommend'. if the company is not doing well, or the directors decided to keep the money, too bad for you lor.

ppl change job because of low pay or no bonus. normally they wont downgrade themselves for lower pay but they may find themselves in deep soup when they 'downgrade their bonus.'

eg a person had 2mth bonus and monthly pay of $1,400 a slightly below market pay $1,500. this work out to be $20k/yr
suddenly she felt that she is shortchanged of her normal pay and decided to change job.
she found a job of $1,600 and is very happy about it... but this new company dont give bonus... so sad... $19k. unwittingly, she lost a few hundred.

so i think ppl like mk n xj, wont be quitting for quite some time... hehehee

i considering studying hedge fund. juz got news that a fund team had scored US$1.++ million of bonus and the rest of the company got at least US10k for bonus.
tat will be 1/3 of a car... song bo...

yellow

i tell u lor...
i juz cant stand actors wearing the wrong yellow on stage.

was watching bao gong an juz now.

1 scene was an actress came out with 2 pretty maids. i tot it was a Gong Zhu but it was only a Qun Zhu. of cos got difference lah. Gong zhu is Emperor's daughters ONLY, the rest is Qun Zhu.

Then a sheng came out wearing royal yellow. i tot its was e emperor cos its the yellow tat emperors wear. but it turned out to be the princess's brother. i was complaining to someone regarding the yellow. the next scene, the sheng change costume liao... must had heard my complaint. haha

in e last few scene, another sheng finally came out wearing the same royal yellow. this time its e emperor. i shut my mouth... but my mouth started to talk rubbish again... the tai jian beside the emperor also wear the same yellow!

where got tai jian wear yellow... even zhong guan tai jian also cant wear yellow... yellow is only for emperor n princes. even yu lin jun also dont wear yellow, but i think they wore yellow vest inside their armour.

singing competition

went to listen to a singing competition cum dinner.

it was organised by a singing teacher n her students. a friend of mine took part in the competition and invited us to join in the dinner.

overall, the dinner was slow... we waited quite a while before the dishes came out. no comment on the food as i was not very particular. got food eat, i ok liao.

when the result of the competition was released, i felt that it was a bit kelong.

1. there is no professional judge. it was judged by students themselves. so students tend to support their friends

2. as it was a gathering for them, i felt that the prizes are divided in such a way that all prizes only have 1 winner. in that way, everyone is happy.

my friend got best tai feng! not bad right... i felt that she also deserve best costume lor.

whose wrong

sometimes i query myself on the things which i did.

there are times when i tend to leak secrets. but actually these are not really secrets but things which the secret holder did wrong. by telling ppl, i indirectly trying to correct him. but he is angry with me for opening my big mouth.

i had nothing against him although he is angry with me. but i felt that its for his good.

i found that a friend, X, had an affair outside. so bad right. he asked me not to tell ppl but i told another gd friend of his,Y, who told him off.
X is so pissed off with me that he phoned to confront me that very night. he said things like 'these things is very common, y make a hole in the mould', etc.

to X, its common. i may be a quiet person but i felt that wat he did is wrong. Y is a very strong person, i know that Y will blow his top when he know the event. too bad if X wanna be angry with me for life. if he realise his fault, i dont mind

心中的遗憾

i may try this song next also


喜欢对着天空发呆
想着你的笑容出现在人海
你总是能让我开怀
忍耐我的坏
只是这一切将烟消云散
也许遇见你是个错
错在我们身处不同的时空
两颗心交会的时候
一分钟就足够
够我一辈子想念很久
我会选择离开
微笑告别伤害
我知道你心中的那份遗憾
当你为她戴上幸福的头盖
我含泪祝福你有美的未来
想飞到千里外
期待一切重来
想洗去你对你的所有依赖
但谢谢你让我体会了真爱
我永远记得你心中的遗憾
La……
La……
La……
嗯……
徐怀钰-心中的遗憾
也许遇见你是个错
错在我们身处不同的时空
两颗心交会的时候
一分钟就足够
够我一辈子想念很久
我会选择离开
微笑告别伤害
我知道你心中的那份遗憾
当你为她戴上幸福的头盖
我含泪祝福你有美的未来
想飞到千里外
期待一切重来
想洗去你对你的所有依赖
但谢谢你让我体会了真爱
我永远记得你心中的遗憾
想飞到千里外
期待一切重来
想洗去你对你的所有依赖
但谢谢你让我体会了真爱
我永远记得你心中的遗憾

小女人的心



我听着你的呼吸
熟睡的像个baby
一种甜蜜在心底
既陌生又熟悉
没有一个人
能让我如此安静
胡思乱想谁在你梦里
我数着你的呼吸
猜着你何时清醒
睁开双眼除了我
没有别的东西
你的世界里
我将是你的唯一
我也有小女人的心
因为你我忘了过去
这转变连我自己都解释不清
我听着你的呼吸
就像是甜言蜜语
这种心情在心底
既快乐又忧虑
没有一个人
能让我说服自己
我也有小女人的心
徐怀钰-小女人的心
Baby, I'll always be here for you.
You're the only one that I want,
the only one that I need.
If you only knew how much you mean to me baby.
I'll never leave you baby,
My love for you will never change.
我数着你的呼吸
猜着你何时清醒
睁开双眼除了我
没有别的东西
你的世界里
我将是你的唯一
我也有小女人的心

Court

i got a letter which none of you wanted to get lor

was told to go to the Court to witness for something silly. A director was charged for not filing his annual report and he objected to the charge.

Witness cant talk to client bah. Then e lawyer lead us to another waiting area and wait for us to be called. I was talking to the secretary whom i know. Talk rubbish of cos... 'y tat cock no do filing, y he this, y he tat...'

After 1.25 hr of waiting, the lawyer came out and told us that at last min, the director decided to plead guilty and pay the fine. Lawyer thanked us for coming and sorried that time is wasted.

I hated going Court lor.
The previous time i went was another courtroom. The queue was ulltra long... I wanted for abt 1.5hr before my case is heard. I was told to represent a client to show face in Court.

i hated going Court lor. I wanted to arrow Lingping go but he juz came back from exam. Jeremy is having his exam. Tat lao foo mi, always away doing small cases... Do small cases but took long time. So sway lor, as the office senior, i had to go lor

cab fare!

now i must choose cab to take liao

Flagging down a Comfort or CityCab will cost $2.80.

The metered fare cost $0.20 per 385 metres of travel for the first 10 kilometres. This will go up to $0.20 per 330 metres for journeys beyond 10 kilometres.
(i think how is abt 10cents / 220metre)

It will cost $0.20 for every 45 seconds of waiting time. ( $0.10 /30sec)

Instead of the $2 surcharge for peak hour travel, it will be 35 per cent of the metered fare. (wat e hell! if i travel $20, that will be $7!)

And the CBD surcharge will go up from the existing $1 to $3.

For travel from midnight till just before 6am, instead of the gradual buildup in surcharge, it will be simplified to a flat 50 per cent of the metered fare.

However, the booking fee during peak hours will be reduced by $0.50 to $3.50.

The booking fee remains at $2.50 for non-peak hours.
