1. I got another job offer, which will start on the 16th. Problem is, my previous job offer was already accepted and I've sent them the signed offer letter. I guess I'll just draft a simple letter saying I won't be joining their company. Well if they insist, most to most I'll join for just a week which will be non-beneficial for them more instead of me. They should be able to see the reasoning, I guess. Any HR people to clarify on this? Sayut? By the way, my new employer will be a public-listed company. Based on the say, they do give quite a lot of perks to their employees. Looking forward to join them. Anyway, to those who I revealed my salary, there's one advice. Never, ever trust me on how much my salary is. So far I have never given to anyone how much I'm earning, not even the range. For this latest job, most that I can say is it's way more than what I expected and obviously on the high range of what I requested during interview.
2. I'm planning to buy a house sometime next year. Parents already bugging me about this. But then that won't be so quick, maybe after August or something. I just need the procedures, do's and dont's of buying house, all the tricks of the salesman, hidden cost etc. There's one attractive offer I found, where I only need to put RM2,000 as downpayment and they give shitloads of free things. Even got two free parking spots and free legal & SPA fees (the heck are those?). But then according to my friend Jim (ex-boss actually, hehe), all these free legal & SPA fees will bite me later when I've officially purchased the house. Something to do with strata title, I don't know. Oh yeah, I also need to know all those jargons in buying-house-procedures. Jim sure scratched his head explaining to me what is strata title, and no I still don't understand what that is.
3. I bought a car. No, that is wrong. WE bought a car. Kenari 1.0 Aero, quite a nice car. Very different from my loyal arowana. It's a fun car to drive, too. Just that the thing gulps gas like nobody's business. I guess after the 10,000km mark the engine will be much better. Speaking of gas, RM2.704?? What the fark. Now RM20 barely fills up to half of my tank. Well to tell the truth, I'm quite okay with the hike though. It's going to increase one way or another, so just take it and swallow. But I really need to complaint on how the hike was announced. Can't you announce it a little bit ealier, morning perhaps? Why you need to announce it in the evening, where people were rushing off from work? Didn't you know how massive the traffic jam was. Goddamn I was cursing all the way in my car, and surely someone's name was included heavily in the cursing. So next time please, announce it early in the morning or one day in advance. Give people ample time to refuel their monsters, okay. As if watching the 'rakyat' ('rakyat', hihu..) frantically queuing to buy petrol is darn amusing. Oh yeah, someone promised if he is given power he will roll back the price hike. Are you out of you mind? The price will always increase, not decrease. Well not unless until those lab-coat guys discover another efficient energy source for our cars.
Okay, enough with rambling..

about nk lari dari first offer tu, kalo takde bond dlm agreement letter tu, takpe ko, mcm wife aku, ada certain period of bond dia kne setel, kalo break, ada penalty
pls refer here utk kira loan, compare loan, estimate bape kne, sume psl housing loan ada, bukak guna IE ye, asp sucks on firefox
another thing, nk bli umah, it's preferable utk carik rumah yg dah siap, at least ko dh tau rupa cemana (tips utk bli umah dh siap, tgk bilik air, u'll know how the previous owner treats the house), bile dh tau loan approval setel, umah dh leh occupy, bleh carik rumah kat sini
those jargons, aku slalu guna google je, e.g. "define: strata"
gudlak
strata title biasanya tidak digunapakai untuk rumah. Strata title biasa digunakan untuk commercial building dan shop2 dalam shopping complexes. Biasanya yang paling penting untuk beli rumah ialah ko tgk samada ianya adalah freehold atau leasehold. Kalau boleh cari freehold.
Juga kalau rumah kat dalam kawasan dbkl, ko boleh beli KL masterplan kat bangunan DBKL untuk ko check kawasan rumah tu for the next 10-20 years akan jadi kawasan jemmed akibat pembinaan lebuhraya baru ke, sebelah rumah ko diorang nak buat padang bola sepak bertaraf 5 bintang ke, ape ke. Semua tu akan menentukan harga rumah tu kemudian hari. (unless kalau ko mmg tanak jual rumah tu la).
aku terlambat komen ke? sori, baru kuar wad.
kalu ko tak melapor diri dekat company tu pada 16hb ikut seperti instruction dalam offer letter, ko tak dikira sebagai pekerja company tersebut, so ko tak terikat sebagai pekerja di company tu dari segi undang2 buruh dan company tu takleh amik apa2 tindakan undang2 terhadap ko.
but it look bad on you lah camnepon. untuk kurangkan kesan, draf simple letter mintak maaf, cakap cancel surat tu atas sebab peribadi yang tak dapat dielakkan - jangan tulis ko dapat offer lain plak. jangan gi antar.
selagi ko tak melapor diri ikut instruction surat tu, ko safe. kalu tak, ko dikira menerima offer kerja dan langsung terikat dengan kontrak perkhidmatan dengan company tersebut - which will make it legally complicated for you la.
nih je la kot kalu betul apa yang aku paham dari skill grup training pasal labor law. kalu nak confirm, aku kena refer buku dulu kat ofis. kalu tak betul, nanti aku sound.
lom terlambat lg. ngan company A aku supposed to start work on 23rd. tp then aku dpt offer ngan company B (which is more attractive) dan started work on 16th. so aku just antar surat kat A ckp aku tak jadi keje ngan diorg la kan?
ha ah.
