Share Your ‘Horrible Boss’ Experience

Bearberry — Tue, 13 Apr 2021 21:42:29 +0800

I encountered one so far (more like an indirect superior) and I have never been that opposed with anyone. She micromanages you, she puts the blame on you on things that you are not even aware of, she doesn’t provide proper direction, she always gives vague instructions, she berates and demotivates you.

Share Your Worst Interview Experience

My story is quite a commonplace. There was once when I waited for an interview session for 2 hours. I have also been ghosted twice. No response after a formal follow-up. Professionalism is hard to find these days.

Bunions

Bearberry — Fri, 05 Jun 2020 15:50:25 +0800

Hello everyone. I have bunions on both feet (big toes).

Does anyone have the experience undergoing surgery? If yes, how much does it cost and how long is the recovery process?

If not, does anyone have any idea how to relieve the pain when you perform exercise with shoes on, e.g., running, hiking?

Car Service during MCO period

Bearberry — Wed, 27 May 2020 19:28:34 +0800

Hello everyone, I was supposed to send my car for service at the end of January 2020 (cut-off date) but due to certain issue, I didn't manage to do it (the mileage has not reached the stipulated km too). I planned to do it in March 2020 but unfortunately, MCO kicks in.

I'm not sure if it is necessary for me to send my car for service during MCO because I rarely use my car now. Appreciate your advice!

Sleeping Pattern

Bearberry — Wed, 13 May 2020 13:39:31 +0800

Hello everyone,

I have been having weird sleeping pattern for a couple of weeks. I am currently not working but have been constantly waking up around 5-6 in the morning regardless of the time I went to bed. I would be wide awake and faced difficulty falling back to sleep and would only be able to do so after tossing left and right for about half an hour then I would eventually wake up around 9am.

Previously when I was still working I would be able to sleep 7-8 hours straight on weekends.

Does anyone have any idea how I can get back to my normal sleeping cycle and sleep 7-8 hours straight? Or should I try not to fall back to sleep and wake up instead?

Thanks in advance!
