Just few hours and I don't even feel stressful. I just watched some drama and do some online purchases. On traffic accidents, I think I m quite a responsible person in driving. I don't speed coz I don't want contribute towards nation building via this way
Actually this is not the first time you complained could not sleep well due to drinking too much coffee. Sigh.....狗咬吕洞滨.....I am only concern : since you are driving, not enough sleeping may cause traffic accidents.[/quote]
and always drive the few routes only so know what to be careful of.

Big org like gov sectors , big local banks , Stat boards etc should have quite a number senior citizens on top , stable structure bah 😆
Yea we can only embrace whatever changes come. I think all in all if someone can produce same output it doesnt matter where we work. Time & $ saved from travelling as least. ..
Hmm you are right there too..for organisations with low staff turnover, how to get young blood arh. But these organisations likely good employers also. -

really boy turned into man after ns. I think we better dont always say no to the kids nowadays. We say no, they still do, but behind our back.

If he's got a licence, does he really need your permission?

It's best to explain why we say 'no' and hope to convince them. Once they have the ability to act without our permission, and are adults, they don't need our permission.

Now that I think back. Dh and few friends also drive when they first got their license but it is family car so must get permission and parents will know…I just guess then the parents will asked where they going, tell them be careful etc. If my dd were to go rent a car and didn’t tell me, I think I will be worry…ok, maybe say esp when below 20.

Yes I will feel upset too if didn’t tell me beforehand. It’s fun to drive around lah but there are still some dangers, especially for new drivers. Need to explain why they should inform us, the parents.

When i was doing my undergrad in Australia, during the long uni vacations i had nothing to do, so i decided to take on minimum wage jobs (quite high hourly pay actually) to supplement my spending account.
With the money earned, and using the remaining blocks of time, I took driving lessons from a hk-turned aussie citizen, and passed the driving test after 15 lessons or so. Subsequently bought a 3rd-hand manual car for AUD 2000.
Did not tell my parents any of this. When my mum came to visit, I drove her around in that car & she realized I was a safe and responsible driver, so she didnt raise any objections (though she threw a big fit when she first found out).
Actually the more controlling the parent is, the less likely the child will tell them about such things. I chose not to tell because I knew she would have a million objections & she’s also a natural worrier.
I dunno when it comes to my DS’ turn to learn driving, will he be willing to tell me or not. But i do agree, he does not need my permission if the law deems him old enough to be responsible.
(Did i just scare some ksps even more about overseas education lol)
