then hor i see an uncle, 60s or so asked to buy but the owner say cannot take any more orders and they are full and all are ordered.
so being ho xim, i ran up to him and said do u want? i can sell u 1 packet. then he very happy and said okok and took it from me. i asked for same amount lah
then he 变本加厉, asked if u still want the other packets? i can take. altho he was polite and smiling about it, i bought it for my dad... i dont think it's really wrong of him to ask lah
but i feel, if it were me i would be very grateful (which i felt he did) and i will not dare to ask for more
i feel in this world hor, 人心险恶，人心难测
everyone will find their ways and means to makan u, 得寸进尺, at work and at play
no harm trying
At least he's polite about it and din jjww when you rejected him
Got 1 time I ordered all the eclaire from polar then the unker behind me left with nothing
I offered to sell to him but he say it's ok, he can buy tml and thank me for my offer
Sounds like shameless ceca

i know. but i cook and make things is usually quite nice one. not talk cock one.
the problem is not easy to let people come and patronise. if want to start is do from home and orders things like cookies or something like this one
but there's a lot of barriers of course...... first is whr to get customers, then also to get them to return since got a lot of competition and some foods, like this is only super hot during CNY nia other times no biz
and i've tasted a lot of good cookies and stuff... not easy to fight them
if want to do things like ice cream all these will need the specialized machine etc
im just thinking first and experimenting. not say will do now. but even so, plan 1 yr ahead is good
u see bak kwa and this thing and many chips and stuff only CNY, christmas time then hot
most of the time 99% of the time is pak mang one

huai you sexpose me
actually i think the real old changkee idea is really quite good
the other time my friend's dodo fishball tried to replicate them like 20 yrs ago
think they opened a few stores and failed
old changkee's biz is only good coz of their currypok
frankly speaking i feel their quality of food is quite shitty. i think their margins are not super high....... but the 3rd? or 4th gen are smart to expand to places like UK
to them it's like the what cornish pastry

ya i know the feud for the wtm and i got eat there before long ago and more recently (last yr)
the porridge or what i dont know la, but i know my father got bring me there to the joo chiat there to make/chop passport dunno smlj last time when i was younger maybe like 7 yo.
dont think my father got supply canes.... but maybe wrong. mostly pots, pans, metal plates and those more expensive diningware or cups that malays like
ya he last time work for company that distributes to the sundry shops lah. corningware was under his company for distro in sg
then the second gen ruin the whole thing up
the first gen built up good business and distro, second gen do stupid thing like pedo young boys keep going jail and mismanagement then the biz folded......... but my dad also managed to work for them until like 65 or something
they dao bi along with his retirement (forced him to retire dunno 63 or 65. i think 63?). i think it was 2003 or 2005/6 when my father "retired"
my tua pek was bigger sized than my dad, worked in warehouse for them... went over to the smaller shareholder's company which also folded in the end. my tua pek this yr i think is dunno 91 or 92 liao......... also old and get demented liao.
but he worked until 2007 or 2008 then the other shop also daobi
last time they were based at Beach road....... tiagong from my cousin even before beach road their distro/company was at geylang... supplying to all across singapore la
