And they play punk. Leave not approved, on the day that they applied for that leave, they will say they not well, got MC.

[/quote]Ya lor, she is exactly like that....takes urgent leave but turned up with MC the next day. If she wants to take MC tomorrow, you can hear her talk about feeling sick during lunch today!

Once this Colleague A even told another colleague \"If you are really sick, go to doctor A. But you know if just a little sick, got to doctor B. He is cheaper and can get 2 days MC.\" :mad:

Even after her new manager (she used to report to me) signs her leave form, she always forget to send the form up to HR. If HR lady doesnt take note, she would get a free OFF day.

We have a new colleague recently and local boss said to her \" We dont need you to break Colleague A's MC records ! \"

Colleague A's acted blur lor

Your boss is the REAL boss har...like the business owner?


Think most of our bosses still a company employee

No he is not the big boss. He is ABC expat.

He was a boss I could scream at for 10 min and then slam his door as I walked out. He did the same many times to me. Next day we always pretended like nothing had happened.

When we argued, the accounts department next door (the ladies) told me they could feel their walls tremble!

How can every yr growth be 25% in dollars? Want my team to die working for the company huh? Why our pay only 5% increment this year? Why did you cut my budget again? Why are we organising the Asia meeting again? Ask China team to do it! etc......a lot of \"important\" issues to negotiate and see who gives in first

I also helped him with his BGR problems HAHA.

Caution : Do not try it on your boss! :rotflmao:

I have a love-hate relationship with my boss. He had given me a lot of opportunities at work. But he sure made me work hard! Today I no longer report to him but we still share a bond. He always never fail to remind me \"why did you leave me?\".........ya why....BECAUSE YOU MADE ME WORK LIKE A COW\" :rotflmao:


Actually I used to manage a team of 7 people in my current local office. At any time, only 2 persons can be out of office. I always get a heart attack when I get a SMS in the morning. It usually means someone need to take urgent leave or will be on 2 days MC. I also had to give priority to my team taking off days before I would plan mine.

Imagine once I heard Colleague A said she would have 40 days leave next yr. She meant \"20 days leave + MC 14 days + 6 days Child Leave\" to me. Really got such people okie :yikes:

As a woman, a mother and then their manager, I would not do to them what my boss did to me. To some people, a job is a job and just a job. I can understand and accept that. But for me, it is a career. :oops:

It is definitely not a glam glam job to manage people. After more than 10 yrs, I requested a transfer to another department. Today i report only to HQ and has no more reporting staff. I must say I am much happier. :evil:

you all have no idea manh!


Even at 8 months pregnant, he kept me working on some reports till almost 9pm…
Before I left the office, I went to him and said " Actually I am not hungry but she is " pointing to my swollen belly.

Hi,


Need help with this question.

Charlene and Denise have the same number of stickers. After Charlene gave away 16 stickers and Denise gave away 52 stickers, Denise has 1/3 as many stickers as Charlene. How many stickers did Charlene have at first?

Thank you!

Done by my DD1 pri4, solved by drawing the model box.

52-16 = 36
36/2 = 18

Charlene has 18 x 3 + 16 = 70 stickers
Denise has 18 + 52 = 70 stickers

Last one:-


Esther went shopping with $480. She spent 2/5 of her money on handbag and 1/4 of the remaining money on a dress. She used the rest of the money to bu 4 blouses. How much did each blouse cost.

:thankyou:

2/5 of $480= $192 on bag
left $480 - $192 = $288
1/4 of $288 = $72
Total spent on handbag and dress = $192 + $72 = $264
Total spent on blouses = $488 - $264 = $ $216
Each Blouse = $216/4 = $54

I dont know how to do it but I asked DD1 to try.


total sweets is 4u + 3 = 6u - 9
which is 2u = 12
a) so u = 6 grandchildren
b) 4u + 3 = 27 sweets
