Background music jokesLiesianthes43
Before I even took the post seriously, the background music sounded like a JRPG, so it felt like walking into a dungeon to go meet the boss.

People who use fake PWD IDs should be publicly shamed.
It's such a shame we'll never know if that would have actually worked out
But "the Singapore of the Philippines" is really on a different level, though.
A hug with no drama, no cheating, and no baby daddy. Both of them came out ahead 😻
I'm raising about 60 Black Angus right now, and the older cows are ridiculously smart. During calving season something happened that hit me like a ton of bricks. One of my cows, a girl named Matilda, came up to the gate near my house one day and kept mooing, which wasn't like her. A few of her close friends were mooing along with her, and when I came out, Matilda kept at it until I got to her. Then she started walking off, looking back at me every so often to check that I was following. I could tell something was wrong. Matilda led me about 1/3 of a mile (around 500 meters) into the property and stopped in front of a thick patch of blackberry bushes below the dam. I couldn't see anything. I figured maybe she wanted to get to the pond and the gate was half closed so it looked shut to her. I tried to lead her over to the gate, but she wouldn't budge and just kept mooing. It really bothered me, but even after pushing a good way into the bushes I couldn't see anything. So I climbed up onto the dam to see if I'd spot something from above, and still nothing, so I went down a bit further. And what do you know, down a steep slope, about 10 feet (3 meters) into the brush, there was a tiny calf curled up. With a machete, pruning shears, a whole lot of annoyance, and every bit of strength I had, I pushed that little thing up to the top of the dam, and I finally did it. That's how I reunited this little family. I have no idea how the calf ended up in that situation. But Matilda, the mother, knew I could help. She came all the way to my house to find me, called out to me, and led me to her trapped baby. She looked at me with such grateful eyes. The calf, meanwhile, just pooped all over my jeans while I was pushing it up. Still, I'm grateful that the mama cow trusted me, and that she was smart enough to know I could do something she couldn't.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I know, taking advantage of this isn't that easy. Scaling up ube cultivation isn't easy. I understand the conditions for growing ube are very demanding.
I'm the son and grandson of farmers, and I work in IT now. I studied economics in college. Since I was young, I've watched agriculture decline up close (we used to sell several cavans of our rice, but now even what we harvest doesn't last us a year). As I see it, the only solution is consolidating farmland through cooperatives. Farmers would become shareholders instead of individual micro-businesses that are easy to exploit. Any farming beyond subsistence level is a business. Money goes in, money comes out. Then farmers can keep doing what they do best while enjoying economies of scale, collective bargaining power, and maybe even direct government subsidies. They'd produce only as much as can be sold at a fair market price, take a bigger share of the final profit on the way from farm to market, and fill any supply shortfall with imports. Who benefits? Farmers, retailers, consumers. Who loses? Middlemen and importers. You can guess who has both the resources and the motive to block this. That's my opinion.
Last time we didn't open the door, so we had to build a new one, and everyone crapped their pants so we had to clean that up too.
I went to see it tonight. I walked out of the theater feeling depressed. This movie really broke my heart.
They won't force you, but the bosses do take note of the people who don't take part. No higher bonus, no promotion, and so on.
You really have to be confident in your own speed to chase down and catch someone who's always running on sand😆
440 in 2017 was really expensive. That was barely a year into PNoy's term. Back then, 440 would cover about four meals.
And then they'll set up their own HMO company next. Why not just fix PhilHealth.
A few years ago, when I was in charge of promotional items, a promo vendor brought this to me. I've held on to it tightly ever since.
The scenery is really beautiful. No wonder the CCP covets it.
Many people don't care, because they think English equals intelligence. Even if what you said makes no sense, as long as you have no Filipino accent and you're speaking English, it counts as better.
"I summon the Great Striped One..."
In the end, religion is a very good business.
Honestly, it's obvious a few people here have never been in OP's position. It's all "should have, could have, would have" until you're actually in a similar situation, and then it's different. Anyway, it's already happened, OP. Recording it on video was good enough. Posting here might be your way of "reporting" it, but I agree it would have been better to report it to the authorities. If you haven't yet, please do. Also remember that you could have done more, but that might have made things worse for both you and the victim. Edit: typo
