Everyone gets a pay cut and work less by 1 to 2 days. It is a fair arrangement than closing shop altogether. During the early days recession, this was the arrangement for many production lines. yeah, they called it Business continuity planning (BCP) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those facing one the 1st time, it is an important lesson. So in good times, save for raining days like this. I see people changing cars, queuing for properties and buying expensive watches like no tomorrow. This is the time to test the limit. And when the tide subsides, we will be able to see who have been swimming around naked. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The top 10% of locals are also not affected by all these. With limited supply, COE is unlikely to have free fall. LTA will also control. The scary part is those chasing the dream get caught. Hope nobody gets hurt. No one else to blame but themselves if they chase blindly without proper planning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weez911 Supersonic February 22, 2020 Share February 22, 2020 (edited) Can join pap IB after you are retrenched. There are many here and HWZ. Not sure how much they are paid and their benefits but you will be well taken care of. Probably can't buy a G30 though, and have to make do with other makes if you promote fast enough.
