Retro Rockin' Sista: You've Never Lived a Working Life Until You've Lived Through a DI.
http://retrosishr.blogspot.com/2010/04/youve-never-lived-working-life-until.html
Tuesday, April 27, 2010. You've Never Lived a Working Life Until You've Lived Through a DI. Hahaha. Not really. But a DI enriches your working experience in ways like no other ways can enrich your working experience. No matter which side of the fence you're on, whether you are the inquiror or the inquiree, emerge victorious or traumatised, a DI will leave its footprint in your inner being long after it's over. That's right, everything's personal in every DI. What's not personal in a DI? The prosecutor ge...

Retro Rockin' Sista: November 2009
http://retrosishr.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 19, 2009. The disbanding of RRHR. Today I disbanded my Facebook HR Group, Rock N Roll HR. I did this was because I personally felt that the Group had not achieved its purpose. When I created the Group I wanted to unite all HR practitioners in JB. Then I opened the membership to all HR practitioners regardless of geographical location. The response was very slow, and not as warm as I would have liked. I don't know whether HR practitioners in Malaysia generally still have not embraced th...

http://retrosishr.blogspot.com/2009/10/caveat-emptor-monitor-closely-your.html
Sunday, October 18, 2009. CAVEAT EMPTOR. MONITOR CLOSELY YOUR OUTSOURCED FW AGENT. This post is an expansion to another post of mine entitled "RUFFLED." about outsourced foreign worker agencies which I wrote on 9 September 2009. You cannot even hire foreigners for cutting your chicken or mopping your floor. For good measure, I would also like to remind you that you cannot hire them as front of house crew. So what does your agent do now in view of these circumstances? So what can employers do? Till then, ...

Retro Rockin' Sista: January 2010
http://retrosishr.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 22, 2010. And on the other side of the Causeway, they're putting their shades on. Today’s edition of Singapore’s Straits Times reports that HR consultancy firm Hudson has reported that more companies will be hiring, paying bigger bonuses and boosting starting salaries of new recruits, based from the findings of a survey involving more than 400 executives nationwide in November 2009. No healthier news about increased hiring, let alone bonuses and pay rises. The fact is if they are jobless,...

Retro Rockin' Sista: The Question
http://retrosishr.blogspot.com/2010/04/question.html
Wednesday, April 14, 2010. From now till May, I have to find a question, which for the next 24 months, I have to answer. I have selected the area of unfair dismissal for my thesis, and I now have to find a specific problem regarding unfair dismissal and propose solutions to that problem. My good friends who know me well and who know why I chose this subject matter, have been supportive but nonetheless very amused as to my choice. But I know you guys are also saying, in your hearts, "You go, girl.". The P...

Wednesday, November 4, 2009. After cooping myself up in my office finishing up my legal work, I segued back into the scene and did some serious checkin' out of various ent venues in JB. Checkin' out is a regular part of a HR practitioner's job. It involves the reconnaissance (or in Manglish,. I told you my job was fun. And you know, this whole checkin' out thing? Well, it's kinda perpetual. Two cents' worth of Tahirah Manesah Abu Bakar. Or on my Facebook notes. The disbanding of RRHR. WHO'S THE FB QUEEN?
