Ez-link card

 I wondered why many people go against SimplyGo. At first, I wasn’t use to the screen without remaining amount but I learnt to check the balance on my phone app. I have been topping up from my phone ever since topping up with app becomes available. I skipped queue at the machine and also not paying additional 50 cents if topping up on ATM machines.

If your amount is not enough but can see on screen, you ended up with blocking people entering.

For people who are already using it with the app, the amount is available on your phone. For people who don’t have the app, you can always ensure the amount with the top up machine. If not enough, you still need to make a move to the top up machine. It is basically the same thing. You won’t always know the amount without the app. For instance, the station double charged you, it will reflect on the app if you have it. You can view all your transactions on the phone. Like I never went out, how do they charged my ez-link card. If you have elderly parents, you can help them by adding the card to your phone. Help them top-up when it went low. Know where they have tapped in and tapped out. I wondered why people wanted to stick to ez-link card which is quite inconvenient in anyway except for showing the amount upon entrance or exit. If the country saved money on such things, you will probably gain more from it. 

I avoided queue also for topping up. Know how much I used per months. Managed a few cards because I forget where I put them so I have extra. I will know which card has the money and which doesn’t. If the government can subsidies the fee for using this platform or prevent a rising cost of ride, shouldn’t this benefit those who lived on minimal spending? Unless it was the opposite though. I guess it was also the way people conveyed the message to the public that was in a wrong way. You just stated that ezlink will no longer be working from June then on. Without giving a solution to those or advice for people who didn’t understand what just happened and thought that they are in some disadvantage. Even when I first heard, I was in a state of confusion. Not knowing how does it affect me if ez-link was not supported anymore. It was the lack of clarification or the intended scare to people for them to give a reaction they wanted.

Amount

 The amount I spent on learning before applying actually costed me more money until I do enough work. Still learning process is still needed even while working.  Doing things subconsciously can make the easiest problem complicated. Could be your old habits or subconscious typing or the auto correction? hm.. This one is more like my habit. It is a hard to catch error when we did like that. I was thinking what goes wrong and no matter what I did, it would not return my desired results. Turned the code that I wrote previously and just a line only which I overlooked while checking, was blocking the rest of the changes… Dangerous code is the counter code that you wrote to right a wrong or blocking the wrong from working. That’s normally a temporary solution but the solution turned out to be preventing me doing other works… sigh… 😮‍💨  Today’s a lucky day and I found it while doing another part… so it is good not to always focus on one problem. The other problem could be the c...

Tools and Work

 Things I bought for work. Another addition of $18.60 to the lost count of things that I bought for work. USB C to HDMI adapter has ARRIVED. Previously, I bought a hoco. and it is working fine still but too bad Shopee and Lazada don’t have them. I bought UGREEN then. I am attracted to name with colours on it. Hehe. Need one at the office so that I have less thing to carry back and fro of home. I bought another ergonomic mouse. My hand could go numb from using the mouse. Actually I have hand numb issue since young. Writing makes my hand numb. Not sure if that is normal but I do practice. I am not entirely sure if that is right hand only. When I used my left, I can write for a long long time even though the hand writing looks bad.  Bought soldering iron and tools set. Bought HDMI to mini port display x 3. One not working anymore and that’s why I bought another 2 (UGREEN $7.48 and IVANKY) because the working laptop needed it to display on another monitor. Bought a portable monito...

hmmmm

Keyboard warrior's keyboard checked. Another Jean checked. It is to make up for the pants that I spoiled two days ago. Just when I arrived at the office, I sat on a chair whereby the surface is grid-like and the  buttoned-up fake pocket button on the right side got plucked off leaving a hole a bit on the upper side of the bum. There is a flap that was together with the button. It just covers the hole a bit. I am not sure if the slit that the button goes through was big enough to see through. I tried to ensure my shirt was over the hole though at least to cover while I was not seated. It wasn't a good time. I was wondering should I just walk off to buy another pants but decided not to because we were busy. That went on for the rest of the day. A day to remember. The pants lasted 10 years. I bought it during my first job at 2011. Anyway, it was a bit tight around the waist so shouldn't have worn it at all. Although I am a bit heavier, my waist is a bit off only. I wonder if m...
