No Show on first day of work after get the offer

ZZZzzz... — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 11:00:08 +0800

Hi All/HR friends,

I have a simple question on offer letters.
Let’s say a company-X offered you a position with 3K. And there is a liability clauses in the offer letter mentioned if you didn’t turn-up (no-show) on the first day of work, you need to pay back 1 month salary exactly what they offered.

So let’s say you already signed this offer, and if you didn’t turn up on that day (with a rejection letter to the new company), are they eligible to do such thing by asking us to pay?
Do we have any employment law to protect us from this?

Because I think this is not so fair. Please help and give some advice!

Thanks

A shop infront of a mall/hypermarket

Hi All,

Just to ask you guys some opinions,

If I have a shop in front of a hypermarket/mall/shopping complex, whereby there will be a lot of people walking pass the area everyday.
What kind of business opportunity/ideas I could do?

This is what I could think off:
1. Café, F&B
2. Cyber Café
3. Computer Store
4. Spa/Reflexology

I couldn’t target as office centers, services based company and stockiest as it will be a waste.
The targets are the trespassers outside and the business idea will be a “take/use-and-go/done”.

Thanks -

Hi all,

I come in mind that since we are talking about jobs and careers here,
Is anyone experienced or heard before about teaching on professional courses such as CCNA, MCSE and Linux Certification?

How much they get paid for teaching the classes, are they paid hourly or one-time-deal?

Will it be around RM50 per hour or more?

I curious to know since this kind of courses for the students is around few thousand.
