deathscythe99 SG Thanks hor...but no lor Just pointing out that there are such ruthless companies out there
bismarck SG OT but i chanced upon 2 diff records regarding babies 1 was a number of babies born in the first few mths of this year, pathetically few. 200+ only another record was of this 17yr old girl getting pregnant and aborting the baby at 4mths .
bismarck SG nowadays employee welfare belongs to the bin. so a staff going on 3 mths company sponsored leave is not economically viable. to them it is paying u 3mths to do something not for the company.
shinta SG u heard of babysitters? get someone to help look after ur kid in the day, den u bring the kid home after work or sth
icebaby0 SG baby sitters aren't cheap too. Most are charging abt $500, not including food, diapers, etc If you want baby to be taken care on weekends or public holidays, they charge extra..some up to $50 each extra day. So having maid in a way is cheaper but regardless it's a hugh cost.
icebaby0 SG The funny thing is that, I am hearing from friends that there are getting more women being the sole breadwinner rather than the husbands. The husband prefer to laze around and do "own business" which is not always profitable. Eventually for those whose husbands are not helping much the women has to do everything and literally pay for everything. It's also one of the reason why some women just don't want to have kids. Cos there is no help whatsoever from the male side. **Don't shoot me, I am just saying there are SOME males that are like that.
shinta SG i dun want a maid.. babysitters are better.. more privacy in comparison.. and... they are more experienced than teh average maid u get.. they're younger than me... some dun even noe how to carry a baby the correct way
deathscythe99 SG Maid comes from a starting price of 240 apiece So, it's cheaper, and somemore it's a 24 mths contract. They do everything to..."bao ka liao".
deathscythe99 SG Hi ah cind This topic which I put up is worthy of discussion wor...wad do u think huh? Not the part on househusbands...that's deviated
deathscythe99 SG Well...if the lady is okay with that... Aiya, it's up to the couple of manage their businesses too
