Over budget? Try this!

Almost everybody looking forward for their salary pay day, but sometimes we do have too many commitments to be fulfilled. Hence, over budget does happen once awhile or disaster could happen if you spend more than what you earned.

Of course there are so many ways we can earn extra cash to cover our budget and cut down our spending by shop lesser, spend lesser to bring our budget down. In my opinion, there is one more tip than people often overlooked.

Your meals! Your breakfast, lunch, dinner and including snacks and tea time. The routine which everybody will need to go through every day to get ourselves charged up and keep us going throughout the day.

Spend less on your meals, buy less or stop buying junk food during snake snack and tea time. Cut down or eliminate on dessert after meals.

Cut down or not to order any drinks during meals. I believe most of our offices has pantry and provides hot or warm water, bring your own coffee or tea and make use of it to make your drinks, instead of spending extra cash on it in restaurant.

These little money that don’t really make a difference at one glance, what is a little of RM1-RM2 to you from your whole sum of salary can make an impact? Because you are doing it as a routine during meals, you would be surprised how much you can save.

Misunderstanding

During a meeting,

Participant: This function is not included in the system, right?

Presenter: Yes, you are right.

Presenter carries on with presentation.

Participant: Excuse me, earlier you mentioned that this function will be in the system.

Presenter: Which function?

Participant: Earlier I asked about the function in the system.

Presenter: Yes, I did reply to your question.

Participant: You said the function will be in the system.

Presenter: No, I did not.

Participant: But earlier you did reply yes?

Presenter: You were asking me the question ending with a “right”, so I replied your question by agrees with your statement. Yes, you are right. I don’t mean yes to the function is included in the system.

Participant: Sorry.

The whole meeting room had an awkward moment of silent.

 

Moral of the story, ask your question clearly and listen for the answer carefully, don’t just listen to the first part and make your own assumptions for the remaining of the answer.

Cannot Piss and Pissed Off

I was at in the toilet of a major shopping centre in Kuala Lumpur, want to release my bladder from holding unwanted pressure within my body.

I went up the this urinate bowl, those type without a divider and stand next to a man whom I assumed he is finishing his business as he was there before me and started flushing the bowl and shaking his long john off.

That’s pretty normal.

As I was “loading” my thing and prepare to release my bladder, this man next to me is shaking. A slow shake or fast shake which last for few seconds is totally fine because I understand this is a man thing, shake it clean before putting it back into the safety net.
