White-chans Lah! 139 - Running out of ideas #4

It'll be so totally awesome if Stephan Pastis could really let White-chans appear as guest in one of his strips! Well... one can always dream...

Hmm... maybe there's a reason nobody has ever tried a 4-panels romance comic strip...

White-chans Lah! 136 - Running out of ideas #1

Yup, finally after 135 strips, my ideas for the White-chans Lah! strip is drying up... but the good thing is, I can still draw about my ideas drying up...

White-chans Lah! 135 - And then it just got bigger again

From a little 1.8" 128x160 Nokia phone in 2006, how did we ended up with a gigantic 5.3" 800x1280 Samsung phone now, all in 7 years? Did our hands become bigger and eyes become smaller?

White-chans Lah! 134 - Somewhere cheap and good

I wonder do they still have these birthday parties at McDonald's because I don't seem to see them anymore. Too cheap even for the pampered Singapore kids now?

White-chans Lah! 133 - When to take MC

The worst day to get sick is Monday because it is the day when the clinic is most crowded. There are people who have hangover after Sunday's drinking, people who are too tired to go to work after Sunday's shopping, and then there are the ones who are really sick.

White-chans Lah! 132 - Definitely not White-chan Lil One!

It is my wishful hope that by now, everybody knows two facts about the strip: (1) White-chan Lil One is the only White-chan who can eat another meal 5 minutes after lunch; (2) it is obvious and easy to tell which White-chan is who.

White-chans Lah! 131 - White-chan Big Bro's new stress ball

Sometimes the requests coming from some of the Sales Managers do make a Project Manager wants a large stress ball to bite on. So yes, this is a true story.

White-chans Lah! 130 - Read the job location carefully!

Personally, because I stay in the West, I don't apply for jobs in companies in the East. Even though it takes less than 2 hours to travel from one end of Singapore to the other. I'm lazy that way.

White-chans Lah! 129 - One well prepared interview

There're some interview questions that I feel that are a waste of the candidate's time and insult of his/her intelligence. One such famous useless question is "Where do you see yourself five years from now?". Each time I was asked that, I was so tempted to answer "Working for your competitor and getting a way higher salary than what you can ever offer".

White-chans Lah! 128 - Not a suitable candidate for the company

No sheep was harmed in the making of this strip. She just needed to wash her hair again.

White-chans Lah! 127 - I'm the best deal you can hire!

I know we're supposed to sell ourselves during interviews. But it's a fine line to cross over to hard selling...

White-chans Lah! 126 - When you really don't know when you can start work

Since they've lived for the longest time, I'm pretty sure these turtles have the best experience money can't buy. I guess the only problem is their speed.

White-chans Lah! 125 - Do you have to mention the free chicken rice?

You asked who's that skeleton in Mrs Zhao's storeroom? Remember the delivery man previously?

White-chans Lah! 124 - Only one TV in the house

Some say families are not as close these days because they watches their own TV in their own room. I think we should look at the other work-around: having dinner together before running into their respective rooms to watch TV. Because not everyone likes to see young girls falling in love with vampires or a documentary of the history of mankind, but everyone would like to eat the fish.

Yup! Double confirmed that the White-chans still look better in white!

White-chans Lah! 122 - It's a sign! It's fate! No, it's...

I'm pretty sure if White-chan Sec and Cheer's relationship works out, they'll spend half of their time grabbing deals on Groupon and eBay... and the other half? At the supermarket of course!

White-chans Lah! 121 - When White-chan Sec meets Cheer

Somehow I feel that it is logically possible for White-chan Sec to meet the love of his life at a supermarket.

Definitely works better than those dieting plans and special supplements spamming your Facebook page! Only problem is... it only works on sheep...

White-chans Lah! 119 - Why so many emails?

Yup, I've definitely received twenty or thirty over emails on the same subject, contributed by just two or three sender, and each email replied with just one sentence. Guess they really hate each others' voices enough not to pick up the phones.

White-chans Lah! 118 - When the aircon is at 26 degrees

I think the aircon in Singapore are way too cold. It's cold in the office, cold in the shopping centers, even colder in the movie cinemas! The only place where the aircon is not cold enough is in our MRT trains. Because they are too crowded to be cold.

White-chans Lah! 117 - Who ordered that $200 geoduck?!

Sometimes I wonder, with every $10 that I try to save on my business travel meal, is there an executive who's spending another $100 on his meal at the same time...

White-chans Lah! 116 - How to claim within limit

I've ever heard about this guy who brings a week's worth of dirty clothes in his luggage when he goes on business trip, so that he could send them to hotel laundry and charge it to the company. True story.

White-chans Lah! 115 - Counting sheep

I wonder who started this thing about counting sheeps to fall asleep. Why sheeps? Why not cows? Or chickens? If I count the number of cars driving through an ERP, will it work too?

It shouldn't be too difficult to guess what White-chan Lil One will wish for, right?

White-chans Lah! 113 - When the Fairy Godmother comes to White-chan Lil One

If you don't get this strip, that's because you've missed the past 2 strips. The Fairy Godmother can only meet her "clients" through their dreams. Don't ask me why.

White-chans Lah! 112 - When the Fairy Godmother met White-chan Sec

Like seriously, all the fairies and genies expect you to come up with a wish like instantly. For such an important decision, I'm with White-chan Sec that we need more time to think about it right?

White-chans Lah! 111 - When the Fairy Godmother met White-chan Big Bro

What I learned from fairy tales: There is always a catch behind all those granted wishes. Cinderella could have left the party early and not run and fall if her fairy godmother had told her that her limousine will turn back into pumpkin after midnight.

White-chans Lah! 110 - Guide to giving your VP the perfect present

There is never the perfect gift for your boss. Either you'll buy a present so expensive that he/she feels that you're trying to bribe him/her (while in some countries this is actually a good thing, most of the time it is not a good idea in Singapore), or you'll buy something that he/she feels that it is too cheap and therefore insincere. So the best solution is to team up and share the present with somebody in the office! Just say "Great idea!" to whatever that person suggests and let him/her do the shopping!

White-chans Lah! 109 - What the VP knows about the business

It'll be real scary if the higher management of the company has no idea what the company is selling. Luckily this only happens in comic strips. Or... does it?

White-chans Lah! 108 - Presentation for the VP

Do you know that the higher up the chain the presenter is, the longer his presentation is? That's simply because he has more guys to add stuff into the presentation slides that they prepare for him.

White-chans Lah! 107 - VP coming to the Singapore office

When traveling for business, there are some people who like to arrive at the visiting country on Fridays, so that they can tour around during the weekends, with expenses all paid by the company. Smart people, these are.

White-chans Lah! 106 - Q&As for the VP's visit

I find that in the American MNCs that I've worked in, they seem to give the staff quite a lot of freedom in the questions they can ask their CEOs during town hall sessions. However, the same can't be said for most local firms and statboards. In one statboard that I worked in, we were told to submit our questions weeks before the executive's visit so that the questions will be reviewed to remove "inappropriate" ones.

White-chans Lah! 105 - The right sports for a chicken

Some parents will send their kids to learn martial art like Taekwondo so that they'll be stronger, but at the same time don't want them to get injured. I wonder how does that work...

White-chans Lah! 104 - Ming learns Swimming

Chickens are actually quite poor things right? They can't fly like other birds, they can't swim like ducks and geese, and they are stable food for humans. I wonder what have they done to deserve this.

White-chans Lah! 103 - Ming learns Ping Pong in school

Sometimes I wonder whether the kids are indeed doing the sports they like in school, or just doing the ones that their parents want them to. Like, when the parents feel that a particular sports has a higher ROI because if their kid gets into the school team, it'll help them to get into a better Secondary school in the future? Or in the worst case, the parents do not want their kids to spend too much time on sports, which in their opinion is a waste of time, time would could have been spent on doing more study?

White-chans Lah! 102 - We want to share our religion with you

In case anyone thought they recognise the fictional religion in this fictional comic strip and thought I am talking about them, and in case such people who thought I am talking about them calls the police to tell them to catch me, and in case the policeman they speak to happen to have some time on his hand and decided not to spend it on experimenting corruption or murder, and decided to be hardworking and work on my case instead, I shall not comment on this comic strip.

White-chans Lah! 100 - Let's vote again next month!

There're people who hates to compete, and there're people who loves to. And when someone who loves to compete goes into politics, you'll see him contesting from one place to another wherever there is a gap. He promises to serve the people in West Coast sincerely, but he'll suddenly promise to be servant to those in Aljunied. Actually I'm surprised he didn't try to contest for the President.

White-chans Lah! 99 - How to make people vote for you

All these years, they have been giving us the "Repent if you make the wrong choice!" stick and expect us to vote for them almost automatically. However as globalisation sets in and the people get to see more and hear more about what's happening outside the country, the stick no longer works. Now they have to figure out what kind of carrots the people prefer. But at the same time, the people needs to give them time to figure out what carrots they prefer too.

White-chans Lah! 98 - A very promising Employee of the Month

Every candidate in any kind of campaign that requires voting to place them in a certain role is promising. They'll promise to take you up the mountains and show you the world. They'll promise to give you anything and everything that you need and don't need. But usually these types of promises expire once the voting is over. And in the following campaign, they'll tell you new promises.

White-chans Lah! 97 - I'm the most hardworking project manager!

A Project Manager managing projects from other regions outside Singapore is a very sad guy. People only see you coming to office late and then getting bored. They don't hear about your late night calls and don't see you rushing mad during User Acceptance Test period.

White-chans Lah! 96 - I'll fight you till death!

I'm a very contented worker with little ambition. Just give me a reasonable pay raise every year and I'm cool with staying in my current role till it is time to retire. But there are always people around me who are super ambitious and do whatever it takes to reach for the sky. I don't really care for these people, but it can get kinda irritating when they have the illusion that I'm fighting with them for recognition and try to read too much into my every random action. I could try to explain myself, but nah, I'll rather spend my time thinking of idea for my next comic strip!

White-chans Lah! Valentine's Day Special - Who do you want to spend Valentine's Day with?

I hope nobody will ever has his/her girlfriend/boyfriend breaking up with him/her on Valentine's Day. If this happens, either your girlfriend/boyfriend really hates you, maybe because you slept with her/his best friend, or because they want to save on Valentine's Day gift.
