Where to now, nurses? 2008-03-06 21:13:28 “I do not want to work as a nurse yet.”
This is what I always reply during interviews whenever I apply for work that is not Nursing-related. Heck, if you’re planning to work as a nurse in the Philippines you still need to undergo trainings, with which you’ll be the one to pay the hospital, instead of the hospital paying you. That sucks, doesn’t it? And even when you’re already a regular employee

Sell and Rent Back 2008-03-06 07:52:32 Are you having debts to pay, releasing equity, or emigrating? Why not consider a sell and rent back arrangement for your house or flat? In this process you will have to sell your property to an estate agency or company which will take care of your sold house and you will rent to live in it.
Why sell your own home and then rent to live in it? It sounds stupid, doesn't it?
Yes, it may sound

I kicked out a bank employee! 2008-03-06 06:07:48 The lady banker who made to attend to me last time was already not there. How sad...
Last Monday I ranted about how irked I was for being misinformed by UnionBank's customer service, about how it is not in “union” with its company. I was so disappointed that I took the time to send them a long email about my concern.
The morning after, I got a call from a lady who at first I thought was someone

UnionBank's not in "union" with its Customer Service 2008-03-03 11:56:21 I am quite disappointed at how UnionBank's CustomerService
(online) is not in “union” with its company. I had this idea that this damn customer service of theirs is by one of the many call centers sprouting left and right. But here's the thing, anyway.
I lost my Eon CyberAccount card a week or two ago (actually it was stolen, silly thief, as if he can access my account!), and right there and

8 Ways to Promote Your Site Offline 2008-03-03 11:51:39 Each and every site has one ultimate goal: that of driving visitors to have the posts or articles read. While we can consider the articles the heart of you blog, the traffic is its soul. Any site without—or with very less—amount of traffic can be considered very close to dying, or dead at all. It is from traffic that blog gets recognition, and it is from that that the posts become appreciated and
