      Tbf, his alibi for “tax evasion” is that he was under the impression that his staff took care of those. Sure it’s good practice to check if your staff is doing their job, but from what we know of BBM (a bum), I wouldn’t expect him to do that.

      It’s also not unheard of to miss filing ITRs out of oversight. My first employer failed to do it for 3 years and I only found out when they couldn’t give me my TIN number. It wasn’t malicious or anything.

      That said, I do like this law because it helps freelancers pay taxes easier by digitizing BIR services. They don’t have paid leaves so they don’t have the luxury of setting aside a day to do that.

        I definitely guilty for hating the guy without considering his move, but kudos to his admin (not him hehe) for doing thia digitize thingy

        Pero sana nga lang mas maging easy talaga at walang delay sa proceasing. Alam naman natin na kahit sino pa nakaupo, may issue parati sa mga government offices. Parang yun drivers license ko, ilang months na wala pa rin ID, papel pa rin dala-dala ko

          The funny thing about relatives asking when you’re getting married is that it doesn’t stop, lol.

          Once you get married, they’re asking when you’ll have a kid. When you do have a kid, they ask kailan nyo susundan. Pag sinundan nyo, kailan naman daw lalaki.

          It really is just harmless small talk. It’s the only thing you can ask someone you haven’t seen in months. It’s not like they’re asking about your sex life or who’s top and bottom.

          yeah it’s probably just me being old fashioned yung pagkakaintindi ko sa MU is high chance na exclusive kayo because you have mutual respect where as situationship I see it as it’s either 1:Many or Many:Many

      • Mas mahal na ngayon ang bilihin
      • Mas konti na ang sweldo

        to be fair yung mga results ni google ngayon parang kailangan lagyan mo pa ng website name sa dulo para lang makita mo yung kailangan mo or go further down sa results cause everything is so SEO focused nowadays unless you know the weird search parameters like filetype:pdf and alike

      Im worried about the kids of today being driven to become terminally online. The opportunities for children to go out and have fun are diminishing because of rising costs and increasing car centric infrastuctures. I feel like this is why more and more children are becoming depressed and isolated

          Speaking of 3rd places, napapaisip ako minsan kung viable pa ang “3rd place” exclusive groups (ie eagles, masons, rotary). Ive never been involved in any pero nawala na yung “mystery” ba sa mga grupong mga ganyan? The exclusive networking seems more or less gone with today’s interconnectivity.

            my definition of a 3rd place is a communal space where there is little to no capital(money) needed to enter so think the library , church , public parks those clubs are still exclusive in the sense that you need an absurd level of influence or cash to enter

    You know, this puts those many posts asking for donations for dogs/cats into perspective. Nung isang araw duda ako dun sa pusa na nasagasaan yung lower jaw and basag yet the clinic was able to restore it back. Feel ko it’s a different cat and the original actually didn’t make it.

    Not only tipping, but we should also stop vilifying people who do not practice CLAYGO in public kasi parehas lang root nyan. Employers don’t want to hire more cleaners (or in some cases yung security guard pinagliligpit kahit wala naman extra) and they’re relying on you being a fucking crab that will post and shame others who don’t fix the table for the next customer.

    Dami na naman hater dun sa role ni Liza sa Lisa Frankenstein, lol.

    Bakit hindi na lang daw sina Kathryn Bernardo. Hindi lang naman acting basehan to penetrate Hollywood, you need to have the “look”, and Nadine and those guys don’t.

    What about Dolly? Tell me you didn’t watch Triangle of Sadness without telling me you didn’t watch Triangle of Sadness, lmao. Yung role niya kaya dun katulong sa ship.

    Extra lang? No one knows that yet. Even if she did, everyone starts small. Some even break out from small roles.

    Pinoy pride? Hindi mo naman maiiwasan mga ganun comments sa video. A pinoy making it to mainstream is going to attract those reactions. That’s just how it works.

    I seriously can’t see why we shouldn’t be happy one of our own made it to a Diablo Cody film and she’s not playing a stereotypical Filipino role. She’s actually an equal! Mas ok na yan kaysa yung pilit na NJPW aswang costume ni TJ Perkins who’s like a right wing nut with creepy female wrestler fanfics, ugh.

    Kumusta yung first week back nyo last week? Between my unplanned covid leave and planned leaves, I was away from work for three weeks. Ang hirap mag-adjust and mag-focus ulit. Not sure if post-covid effect or ako lang talaga.

    Also, the first email I read back was the announcement of the Philhealth contribution increase, so that was fun.

    Filipinos: Tama lang yan modernization! Kawawa naman environment. Gawa gawa lang kayo rason mga tsuper.

    Also Filipinos after hearing the 40 peso fare: Ano ba yan, pano naman kaming mga commuter??

        A congressman argued that for jeepney modernization to push through under the “PrObLeMa NyO nA mGa TsUpEr YaN”, the fare has to be 40 pesos or roughly 10k/day in earnings, whichever is higher.

        Naturally, those calling the drivers drama queens and pounding their chests about the environment, disagrees with it. Bakit daw mga pasahero sasagot, bakit hindi gobyerno — which is 1000% the reason why the drivers have been picketing for years, lmao.

          haha of course ayaw nila na sa kanila maipapasa yung bayad… they only think of themselves, kasi if they really wanted to help the environment and the drivers, then they should step up instead of virtue signaling blah blah blah. but then again the jeepney modernization program should have had more government support financially anyway, especially considering that they seem adamant on forcing it…
