    Ganun naman talaga ang anak siguro, hanggat may napipiga sa parents pipiga. Baka pinagbibigyan din naman ng parents.

    On the other hand, maybe he really is as good as you say he is. Yung katamaran minsan good asset yan e. Kumpare ko sa katamaran, would automate everything at work kaya parang naglalaro lang lagi, hindi nagtatrabaho. One classmate is planning to retire at 35. He has 6 years of work left. Nacompute niya daw based sa income na nakukuha niya sa investments niya sa stocks/forex/etc na kaya na retire at 35. Medyo risky at too good to be true for me pero tamad e, ayaw magtrabaho kasi ayaw na nauutusan sa work.

    Balik sayo, baka naman madaming invesments yan earning enough for him not to work anymore. Kaya you don't see him 'working'. Maybe he stays with parents not because leech siya but because it is cheaper and wala naman need to move out. Ako kunwari, I still stay with may parents(both retired). All of us siblings work and so the expenses are divided equally among us. Cheaper in the long run. Di pa naman married. Playing devil's advocate lang...[emoji3]

    I've known him for 11 years. He has no source of income. He only stays at homr. I told him to ask his parents to start a business but he didn't want to, I even offered to lend him money but nothing happened. He wants to get rich being a writer. But he doesn't even write professionally. I think he is happy with what his parents could give him.

I met him when was in my 20s and jobless but about to take my masters, he was in his 30s then. I knew he did not have a job then but I thought things would turn around. I didn't mind too much because we were both jobless but when I finished my masters and started working he still was not looking for work. The resentment grew and I pretty much knew he had no plans to find a job.

    Aside from the jobless part, sumasama pa loob ko dyan kasi hindi maasahan. Example he has 2 lawyer friends that he is very close with. I had some legal issues/questions back then and I was begging him to ask one of him friends on my situation (simpleng tanong lang hindi consultancy) Ayaw niya kasi maki utang na loob sa kaibigan niya, di bale ng magkanda iyak ako sa pamumroblema. I knew for a fact that his friends would not mind him asking a simple question. Recently nga yung kaibigan pa niya nag alok na tulungan ako sa car problem ko (because they were friends) Buti pa kaibigan niya willing ma hassle May mga kaibigan din ako that would ask other people for help to help me, and I do the same. Little things like for example yung kaibigan ko kailangan ng sticker sa village kung saan nakatira Tita ko, I would ask my Tita to help my friend. Dati naman kailangan ko bumili ng laptop, ginawa ng good friend ko sinabay sa company purchase ng Tita niya para maka discount din ako. Nung gusto ko bumili ng lancer, yung good friend ko nag favor pa sa barkada ng kapatid niya na taga Mitsubishi (malayo na diba) Sa ex ko NEVER niya gagawin yun. He would NEVER ask another person a favor for me. Kahit simpleng favor, like patanong naman ng price ng item (since their business has to do with it) hindi niya gagawin just because.

    He is living with his parents and they pay for his needs. BTW, I know a lot of guys in the same situation, he is not a unique case.
    Mataba ba sya

    i just found out my reliever at work lost 4 fingers of one hand. this just hours after i left the rig and he took over last thursday. pinagsabihan ko na siya before, told him not to allow himself to be bullied into working too fast. sabi ko sa kanya di naman masisante for shouting back. lagi natataranta pag minamadali, di makapalag. ayun putol daliri 4 fingers pa.

    i hope they saved the fingers and were able to reattach in singapore. i don't have any news other than where he was when it happened.

    Wow, malas naman, nakaka-badtrip nga. A very unfortunate way for him to learn a lesson. Hope he was able to save what could be saved.

    Congratulations you've broke up with him. Good for you for saving your self. I just can't understand why is he still running in your mind.

    meron naman kami insurance. if i remember right all 4 fingers or a thumb is 3/5 full disability. nasa $250k. pero kahit na, sa kanila na lang yung pera nila. i'd rather risk losing my job by facing whoever is hurrying things up and telling him to f*ck off than lose half a pinky. i've done it many times telling the oim to shut up or i walk away from the job at hand di pa naman ako nasisante.

    Very true yebo. No amount of money (well give me a billion and id lose a pinky [emoji13] ) can replace your limbs. 4 fingers is basically reducing your hand to a stump

    My dog isn't eating his dog food. so I gave him a piece of raw chicken and raw liver and raw egg. Saka lang sya kumain. I think I'm messing up his appetite.

    Had to shell out P13.5k for replacement of circuit board and receiver panel (P9.5k) and labor (P4k) on my 3 yr old Daikin inverter. My other inverter, supposedly a lesser brand, is also 3 years and still working without a hitch.

    pagkakamali din ng parents kaya okay lang napipiga sila ni anak. binigay ni parents ang langit at lupa kay anak kaya di natuto dumiskarte sa buhay, tuloy naging dependent kay parents. I really feel sorry kay anak.

    My Mom threatened to cut off my allowance if I didn't find a job. I got the first job offer and it did me well. I'm glad she pushed me.

    Minsan di sapat yung hardwork, eh oo masipag ka nga magtrabaho (like construction worker) pero 10 naman anak mo (and counting) diba parang ganun din. Education is the key talaga, plus sipag and konting luck. Alam ko mahirap magpa aral, pero possible naman kung gagawan ng paraan.

    Does that mean nung nagkaron ka ng work may allowance ka pa rin? Just an honest question =)

Bakit ka badtrip today?
