Their excuse:
Your pay too high (They offer below 2k???)
You are over qualify (Have a Master only not even consider that is high)

Live in a small condo and a car (Both fully paid)
Currently living off my earning from past investment which not much balance. Male friends all missing after I jobless. A female friend help me here and there (financially)

Got a job offer finally and accepted to start in Early Sept.
In your 40s but they offer you less than 2k? Smlj sia lol

If you read what i say, they offer me 2k not i ask for 2k. Perhaps you are lowly educated and don't understand simple English

I work as PM before this, got 9.8k, when jobless i bring myself down to just 5k to 7k job. This stupid company some SMC at Ubi give me a dumb offer at 1.95k obviously i reject, maybe they just playing with me.

The new job i get offer me at 7k during probation and once confirm will be 7.5k to 8k base on performance or remain at 7k. But only have 13 month, nothing else, but its the best so far so just grab it.
