aileen2008 As we grow older, we mature, we meet new friends, we do different things. But this does not mean that we stopped being friends with one another. A little effort of being a thoughtful friend can go a long way. If they do not initiate the first move, why not...

aileen2008 Hi! I am intrigued where you buy your ukay ukay clothes. I am interested. And how do you wash them? I have an officemate who says that she boils water and pour it over the clothes that she bought to remove unnecessary smell.

Harold_ks @Harold_ks (1673) 17 Apr 13

aileen2008 No. I actually don't know what their guidelines are. I just post discussion as an outlet whenever something or somebody in the office annoys me. Usually I rant it all here to get advice so that I could calm down. Earnings are just bonuses of my ranting.

aileen2008 The least I like about working as accountant, is that I am only one in accounting. They do not want to hire. You as the auditor, this is already outside having good internal control isn't it? Despite that, being only one in accounting, denies me the luxury of...

aileen2008 1. Boss. 2. Boss. 3. Boss Okay okay. I am okay with salary and benefits. I am okay with my work. Just that I have issues with a specific boss who is not my direct boss but someone I always have to deal with because his tasks and my tasks are connected.
