At the height of the ECQ, people at my daughter's company requested for meralco subsidy as they were working from home. The answer? Ang India nga hindi nag rerequest!

Fakc these managers who instead of making a request, took advantage of the situation to look good by recommending miniscule savings just to look good themselves. This company is not in distress, they are in fact expanding.

Really depends upon management or the owners. May mababait lang talaga at meron namang pera-pera lang ang bottom line, as in ayaw man lang bumaba profitability.

Happy lang ano dahil yung nalantang halaman ko na siling pang sigang eh nabuhay ulit. Ilang araw kasi ako hindi nag dilig dahil araw-araw umuulan. Hindi yata umulan ng Friday so Saturday tuyot na lahat ng dahon. Kala ko patay na. Diniligan ko at today Sunday buhay na ulit lahat ng dahon. Akala ko itatapon ko na. [emoji3526]

Una halaman ko sya from seeds.

Happy lang kasi the promotion for my Sr. Engineer taking over my role as a manager has been approved by the EVP and naiabot na rin ang promo letter dun sa Engineer.

How does that compare with the increases you gave your direct reports?

I always feel bad when I get a higher increase compared to my team when it’s always a team effort, so I always push to max out the increases possible for my direct reports as well.

In my current work, all my direct reports are in India and have no direct control over their renumeration. I can only provide feedback to their immediate managers. In my previous job back home in Manila, I did have direct input which team members got the bigger slice of the increase and bonus pie. I always tried to give the hardest workers the best percentage that I can defend in the renumeration meetings. Don’t feel bad if you get a higher increase. A good team also needs a good leader.
