So what is your expected salary?

Malcolm mentioned something worth noting it down

"Ermm , I think I don't deserve this amount. Probably you will raise to this amount when I have proven to you after my three months"

This is one good tactic. Something new to answer this sensitive question.

My approach would usually weigh other benefits first before I settle down for a final amount. But I always fumble when there are more than one confirmations coming. My "best of both world" approach will always end up me telling each potential player to give me a few days to decide.

And in fact I really cannot decide .

So in the end , I will give a different quote to each player depending on who comes first.

I have been zipping in and out of interviews . And when I was ready to close a deal when the rest of my ideal company did not reply , all of them came back knocking.

And the most important question comes ,

"So What is your expected salary?"
Tsk Tsk..

I hate decision making


When I am tied for options , I always choose whoever that comes first. And just when I am about to decide what I want , more choices spring out of nowhere.

And because such choices are rare , I have to review these new choices and reassess my planning again.

Now my whole brain is scattered just like the crazy road sign above.

Good Luck to me

My phone is found!!

Yes!! and I didn't expected it to happen.


Apparently , this indian auntie picked up my NGAGE phone at bus 52 yesterday morning when I got off the bus for RT. She was kinda confused whether is that a phone or game. And she was reluctant to send the lost items to SBS at Jurong Interchange.

She could not contact me coz my dad cut off the line immediately in the morning . So she brought the phone to work to ask her collegue for help.

This brilliant colleague , Linda , apparently tried to call my friends on the list. But because I did not announce my missing hand phone case most of my friends. No one knows about it when she tried calling a few

Next she tried calling contacts on my list that ends or start with 'Pa' , 'Ma' , 'Sis'. Smart move and again I did not have the habit of putting Pa , Ma , Sis or Home in my contact list.

And lucky I got Bud's parents' contact. The word 'parent' soon got Bud's parent alerted and they tried to contact me through my mobile number which obviously was been cut off.

While this end of the drama is on-going , I was already down at M1 Customer Centre at Paragon around 1 pm to activate another SIM card. Never did I expect a call from Bud's parents saying someone have called that they have found my phone. They knew Linda was refering to me when Linda said she found a lost phone.

But the twisted fact is that the lost phone incident Bud's parent was known to is not my recent handphone lost incident , but the December Christmas case which i have mentioned to them.

I was more concerned about this loss as this is the only phone that have all my contacts stored in the phone memory.

Oh , those kind aunties , Linda and this indian lady are in their 60s. They are one good citizens and are really ought to be praised. Currently they are working as libralians in Clementi Children Community Library.

Down with another bad luck

For the nth time , I am no careful again

I have too many things to focus for the past few weeks.

Interviews , Work , Reads up , Catch ups , Health ...

And to end up the whole mess of hyperactivities , I lost my mobile phone again.

Its my beloved NOKIA N GAGE. Feeling rather DISGUSTED right now.

Hopefully I get more good news next week.
