An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭

Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Exactly. I mean, I understand why people hate being used as "retirement plans" - it's just a bad position to be in considering you also have to start your new life but...

Saving for retirement?

Hell of a lot easier said than done. A million pesos won't get you as far and you need much more than that. Hindi sapat pension natin specially for low earners kasi they'll be getting less. Plus like you've said, buti sana if electricity/water bills and food lang kailangan mong pagkagastusan. Imagine being your 70s living alone.

Instead of getting pissed at your parents (or other parents) and screaming to the world that you're antinatalist, why not hold our government and corporations accountable?

Natawa ako sa team building hahahaha. Tama naman.

Team buildings are seriously the most useless benefits ever. Sa experience ko, yung mga magkaka-away sa opisina at cliques magka-kanya kanya lang at pag-uusapan mga nasa labas ng grupo nila, so it doesn't exactly achieve anything! Sa dati ko nga work, yung room assignments at cottage, ginagawa nung HR pagsasamahin nya mga magbabarkada sa same rooms at nasa same side ng mga galanteng bosses while yung kaaway nasa kabilang dulo.

That, or mga free-flowing inuman at kantahan which you can honestly do on your own every Friday.

Give us 401(k), you fucks! ROTFLMAO
