Food Delivery Guy Texting Customer

arava — Wed, 31 Jul 2019 21:43:39 +0800

Hi all, just wondering if this happened to anyone you know.

A female friend of mine likes to order food delivery to her home via the app. So she encountered recently one of the delivery guy whatsapped her a few times after making the said delivery, sent recorded voice messages asking if he can be friend with her, saying she was pretty based on her profile pic, etc. (unfortunately, she set her profile picture to be 'public'). For obvious reason, she ignored him and then after several messages from the guy, she said no to him and then blocked the guy's number. She was also scared to report this incident to the company for fear of revenge case as the guy knew her house (worst case scenario). So hopefully, there is the end of it and now she dare not order food from app anymore.

For me, I always set my Whatsapp photo to be private and not visible to anyone. I told her to check her privacy setting and all, but come to think of it, someone with such intention will still be able to see you when the person delivered stuff to you.

What will you do in this situation?

PC Keeps Trying to Repower On

Greetings there,

I have read multiple info about this, basically recently my pc gets this issue of restarting and mostly what I did is turn off the power for a while and then turn it on, the issue will be gone but once in a while it will return. It only happened recently and I just changed my PSU last year, CM v750. So just wanna get a confirmation if really it is a problem with the new PSU, seems like it based on the symptoms. Tried a few troubleshootings like changing cmos battery, recheck cables and connection before.

Malaysian Shop Staff Welcoming Expression

Just wandering, what is the ratio like for an encounter whereby you walk into a shop in Malaysia and you are greeted with warm friendly staff rather than staff who showed/looked frustrated ?

Over the weekends, I've had my fair share of both although I suppose in an ideal world, staff should have a welcoming expression in general.

Public Bank vs EON Bank

arava — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 16:23:17 +0800

Hi there, I'm first timer in this section here and am in the midst of choosing over the housing loan.
I have narrowed my choices down to these two banks; Public Bank and Eon Bank.

According to what I gathered, Public Bank seem to be the preferred choice for most people as compared to Eon Bank.
To simply summarize the loans given by these two banks;

EON Bank -- BLR-2.3%, zero cost
Public bank BLR-2.3%, zero cost

Zero cost being free legal fees.

So, I'd like to know if anyone out there knows about the pros and cons of these two banks (eg. hidden clauses, fees, etc)?
And, why is Public Bank the preferred choice?

Appreciate your feedbacks and advices.
Thank you all for your time.
